Bomb Blasts in Bangalore

8 Bomb blasts are reported till now. Thank God only one causality and few injured. Was a shocking news in the afternoon after I just came from lunch.

I didn't have a proper sleep last night with some bad dreams and also today morning Mom called and said she got some bad dream about me not being well and wanted to be careful today. So was a kind of not feeling well. So tried to cheer up myself and started to office late. Came out and saw it was drizzling. Weather was awesome and not it a mood to work but then have to go to office. So decided to make the best of that. Took my ipod and made sure that I left my jacket so that I can enjoy the weather. Even if I get wet I am fine with that but not carrying a jacket.

Reached office. Attended a meeting and came out. No mood to work so tried to do some time pass. And one of my friends got the idea of going to Nandi Hills in that weather. So tried to see if it can work. But as usual coz of work pressures of some of them have to drop out the plan. Lunch time :) Went out and had a nice lunch at Paramount. Came back to office to find there were bomb blasts and rushed to TV room to get confirmation and yes it was true. The number started increasing from 1 to 7 in 30 mins. Was quite a bit disturbed and wanted to leave home.

Left office and saw it was every thing normal in the area. Reached my cousins place and spent some time with the kids.

But not in a very good mood even as I write this. Not sure why. It doesn't affect me directly but then 'Do people have to be so cruel?'...

Kaki Kaki

Well I was thinking to entertain my niece by telling some kids poems and couldn't recollect even one which I have learnt in my child hood and this was around a fortnight ago. Today was waiting for giving my scooter for servicing and out of the blue this poem just came out without a break in the flow and this is also one of which I tried to recollected on that day. Glad that I still remembered it. Here it goes and hope its correct...

కాకి కాకి, కడవల కాకి
కాకి నోట్లో దీపం పెడితే
దీపం తీసీ దిబ్బ కిస్తే
దిబ్బ నాకు ఎరువు నిచ్చే
ఎరువు తీసీ చేను కిస్తే
చేను నాకు గడ్డి నిచ్చే
గడ్డి తీసే ఆవు కిస్తే
ఆవు నాకు పాలు నిచ్చే
పాలు తీసీ మామ కిస్తే
మామ నాకు పిల్ల నిచ్చే
పిల్ల పేరు మల్లె మొగ్గ
నా పేరు జమిందార్ .

And now I wonder from where and how could this be remembered at some odd point even when I was not thinking about it..

Looks like my brain took so long to give results of the search which was called fortnight ago. Well brain not performing or memory lost ? Aging problems can't help :)

A Difficult Judgment

In a small town in India, a person decided to open up his Bar business, which was right opposite to the Temple. The Temple its congregation started a campaign to block the Bar from opening with petitions and prayed daily against his business.
Work progressed. However, when it was almost complete and was about to open a few days later, a strong lightning struck the Bar and it was burnt to the ground.
The temple folks were rather smug in their outlook after that, till the Bar owner sued the Temple authorities on the grounds that the Temple through its congregation prayers was ultimately responsible for the demise of his bar shop, either through direct or indirect actions or means.

In its reply to the court, the temple vehemently denied all responsibility or any connection that their prayers were reasons to the bar shop's demise.
As the case made its way into court, the judge looked over the paperwork at the hearing and commented:

I don't know how I'm going to decide this case, but it appears from the paperwork,

We have a bar owner who believes in the power of prayer

and

We have an entire temple and its devotees that doesn't.
