Formal Wear

It's been close to 6 weeks since I've started working as an intern at the Engineering Research Center , TATA Motors , Pune and by god am I exasperated or what !! The work is dull and mundane ; the project guide is a rotund , little dude with a cool-dude attitude who's lately been turning into a very irksome gremlin , you know - " A thorn in my side "," the blister on my ass " - I guess you'd get the idea by now. Well anyways now that I've vented out my frustrations regarding my guide in a very Rushdiesque sentence, back to the topic.

The only thing I've liked about working as an intern is: the FORMAL WEAR. Formal wear kicks ass . Nothing beats wearing a crisply pressed Herringbone Patterned Colorplus Shirt paired with a Wills lycra formals ( I wish I could endorse them :P). I take my own sweet time getting into the outfit , adjusting the tuck so the minute paunch doesn't show :D , admiring my polished appearance in stark contrast to the grease-monkey rocker appearance I maintain at college. I love formal wear. Wonder why Clark Kent prefers to strip them formals off to unleash a red brief on a spandex suit and an equally gawdy red cape to stop the boom crane from smothering a buxom blonde when he could do the same retaining them formals ? The blonde can go bust(no pun intended) her own burglars , I'm Superman only when I feel like it and that's when I ain't wearing any riding-up-my-ass 'crotch'ety underwear over a 'happy' suit.

I've been a lifelong fan of Will Smith. My earliest memory of Will is watching him in Independence Day - what a movie, and what an absolute dud of a sequel !! Will played the role of a US Air Force Pilot that gets into a dog fight with an invading alien aircraft. Not only does he bring the aircraft down, he does this badass bit of getting out of his plane, going over to the alien's craft, renting open the hood, and as the alien's overenthusiastic tentacles slither all over, punching the alien unconscious while continuing to badmouth it.  Dark skinned actor playing a US Air Force Pilot - COOL  !! Dark skinned actor fighting an invading alien - 2X COOL  !!  Dark skinned actor bitchslapping the alien, leaving it unconscious and hauling it over to the President of US - 3X COOL  !!  I was sold, sold, sold and in absolute awe of him immediately.  He then went on to top his act further with Men In Black. That scene of him chasing the alien on foot (yes, another alien, different m

Losing while Winning. Winning while Losing.

08-Mar-24 1900hrs - 2105hrs   Bhandaphod unleashed a blistering blitzkrieg of brilliance on the pool table. She'd verbally convey what she was intending to do and then line up and take the shot and the balls would be like - "Aye Ma'am, we're on our way !!" . Meanwhile I was at the other end, first bemused, then alarmed, later frustrated and then eventually resigned to my fate - "I am being bested by someone who's on song, so let me just watch and enjoy" . But of course, I was also super proud of my billiards buddy - in just over a month she'd gone from an absolute beginner to this amazing markswoman that was wiping the floor with me. All that intricate analysis we'd initially done, all those videos of her stance and her shot, coaxing her to get her hubby Monsieur DaBomb to critique them - all of it seemed to have paid off. I was elated internally, yet externally I was still this stone-faced competitor still latching onto some hope of saving f

Introducing to one and all, the members of The Secret Society - a bevy of book-loving beautiful people that have been a shot in the arm and the wind in my sails as I explore new horizons.  KrushiFTW A voracious bookworm with unfettered love for technology enabling and proliferating agriculture and Gabriel "Gabo" Garcia Marquez. Been the sous-chef to his MasterChef, I'd be the sous-anything to his master-anything. Instills warm badey bhaiyya feels to the bone.  BehenGogh   Warmth personified with a disarming smile.
