Hawai India

by Sharique on November 8, 2008

It’s 7:00 PM in Chennai. Normal flight traffic has just resumed after some heavy down-pour in the evening. And here is the scene at the Air India’s control room at the airport-

2 youngsters, in their late 40s, walk into the control room.

Youngster 1: Dude, will Air India fly today? How will they convince the air hostesses that their make-up won’t fade away because of the drizzle and moisture?

Youngster 2: No idea. I suppose they will wait till the drizzle has completely stopped and the humidity level has reached 60%. It’s 95% now.

Chennai is a World Leader

by Sharique on March 7, 2007

People of Chennai search for ’sex’ more than any other place on earth. New Delhi comes second and most ridiculously Delhi comes third!

The top 10 list includes all the Asian cities.

See here

Any particular reason for this?

For the search term ‘girl’ Chennai drops down to third place, New Delhi and Delhi leads this list

Fire outside blogcamp, chennai

by Sharique on September 9, 2006

As I was coming out of blogcamp I saw fire in the slum just outside the Tidel park. People were crowding near the place. Passerbys stopped over to have a look. I could see some of the slum dwellers desperately trying to put off the fire. I shamelessly took out my mobile and started filming the whole event. While filming a fire suddenly popped up and we were all taken back, a cylinder burst perhaps. I consider myself guilty of actually trying to capture the whole event and not contributing anything to the desperate slum dwellers who were seeing their paradise being taken away from them by the fire.

Recommended by an IAS officer!

by Sharique on July 31, 2006

Haddi and I decided to finally take matters in our hands and visit the Regional Passport Office. We had a letter of recommendation from our registrar, an IAS officers. We had to haggle with a member of a community which could have been subjected to Hitler’s holocaust, only if Hitler would have been a Tamilian. In short an auto wala.
