The Great Indian Train Tamasha
1.Pick any 2 random middle aged guys and put them in a same compartment.After approximately 20 mins they will start bragging about their Brobdingnagian(courtsey Wordweb...)knowledge about stock markets .Well 'Reseysun' and 'mortgaze' seem to be their new buzz word.
2.The cofee vendor will never ever have a change of 2 Rs and he will always return it to you 'afterwards'.
3.We Indians cant stay without bollywood music for more than 10 minutes.Also its indispensable for us to play our favourite musical number at the loudest possible voice of our cellphones no matter what how many other songs are being played around us.
4.Everyone seems to be having a certain form of food fantasy that he will have the biggest possible meal of his life comprising of all the existing indiandishes in a train no matter how small the journey is.
5.There exists no finite limit of the great indian train seat to accomodate the number of people sitting on it.
6.All hot girls(if any) are to be found in the compartment next to you and never,never,never,never ever in your own compartment.
P.S:Lalu has made the condition of indian railways worse...the 90000 crore Rs surplus seems to be a fluke.

Nagpur (in troubled) Times??
well this isnt any bollywood magazine....this is the suppliment that nagpurians get along with The Times Of India-'worlds largest selling english broadsheet newspaper' known as the Nagpur Times which was supposedly started with an intention to keep the educated,bourgeois people of the city informed about the orange city-Nagpur.
But i guess nothing more important,nothing more 'happening' seems to be happening in the lives of twenty four lakh odd people living in the city that is more worth reporting than...hmmm....why didnt tanishaa reply back to udit's SMS??(seems like matter of great international concern which might lead to world war 3)......or......how some singer known as'jojo' wants to act in a movie..(no...not as a dog...)....or is it that perhaps we people have grown too callous,too frustrated,too fearful,too oblivious...by the daily reports of the corruption,murder,riots,theft etc stories and our utter disability to respond to them that we seem to be temporarily content,happy by these hollow,fake celibrity news that do not effect us at all and wish to forget completely about our economic,social problems??

Obscured by the geeks...
never have i despised our postman so much...but then the dreaded day had to come once...Then he came..the harbinger of harsh reality...the dementor...to suck away all the happiness from my life...slidding indifferently,happily the CGPA(cumulative grade something something) card under my door and at what perfect time when everybody was having their lunch peacefully,merrily until.The result very much expected...but the reactions of my parents certainly not... nearly 15% of the so called 'students' at bits-pilani get their cg above 8.0 another 65% between 7 and 8 but getting into the elite 20%..ahhh...no one understands how difficult it is...requires some special character...some special qualities.U know getting 6.something requires some specific traits...and i ll explain u the associated qualities...
