The Driving License

My driving license was pending for quite a long time now. So I decided to get the formalities completed a few days back. I took my scooter to the Sector 17 Licensing office (which took a lot of effort as I had to get ready by 8 AM) with all the papers ready. I was pretty satisfied to have reached by time to the place. All my earlier visits had taken me to drive about the whole Plaza for about 20 mins each to locate the place.

Anyway I went to the basement to submit the form. As expected, there was a long queue awaiting me. I was 6th on the line when I joined. I found an aunty peeking into my papers as I was going through them. I ignored. But guess what, she asks me if I was married! urghhh.. wtf! Dumbstruck, I asked, why??? I look like? Aunty: "Oh, you're not. You are 18 na. I am 19." Gawwd, she's 19!! With tons of make-up loaded and those auntyish mannerisms, I seriously couldn't believe that! I didn't occur to me that she is not an aunty afterall. "oh, so you are married?" Ofcourse, she was!

Btw, I got my license made at around eleven. Was going back home, thinking about the lady, when suddenly my scooter started slowing down. Before I could realize what was happening, it came to a complete halt. No way! Not the petrol! Shittt. That was the first incident of its kind. I always used to get my scooter filled timely. Anyways, I called up a rick n asked him to carry the scooter with me to Sector 49.
"Sector forty-nine"
"Aaain?"
"forttyy-naaiine!"
"?? kahan?"
What now?? He doesnt know 49?? he should atleast know the numbers! what was 49 called in hindi?? damn!
"pachas se ek kam"
"pachas? chalo, chaalis rupay."
"uncle pachas se ek kam. aap chalo main raasta bata dungi"
Gosh! I was so relieved when I finally reached home.
First thing I asked my mom, "what is 49 called in hindi?"
"unchaas"
"ooh!"

The Ooogle Story !

Satya Paul's new "Google" sari showcases what a phenomenon Google is. I was literally amazed by this fusion of the traditional sari and the contemporary consumer culture. I am a very devotional Google user and also a sari fan. Though it is a li'l overpriced for me at $299.88, I would still like to own it. Wow, imagine Indian women employees at Google draped in the sari and going for work!
Cheers Satya!
