October 20 Oct 13th, 2006 and more....Man!!! A year passed by like no one's business!! Here I am sitting in office, typing out this, just realising that 1 year has gone by without much fanfare and another birthday was here to celebrate!! The comical lamenting from last year continues!! Only Swapna managed to wish me on time!! Many others sent SMS'es but calls few, gifts, fewer!!! As usual, the IPOD was rejected this year too!! DAMN!! I'm buying one myself!! The RD fellows realised late evening and came home for a small party!! DD, Datta, his bro Arka and another friend joined us for a late nite party. Was good fun!! The end discussion after many Johnny Walker sessions was suddenly turned towards my health!! The guys suddenly decided I was putting on weight and started off lectures about working out, eating healthy and breakfast and so on!! DD went on after some time to narrate a story about a ghost babe he and a senior saw in college which freaked the living daylights out of them!! It was not the story which scared us, but the way he narrated it!! SCARY!!!  Anyways 1 more year to add to myself, not happy about it, not sad about it!! Diwali is around the corner and I just realised I haven't bought anything!!! Just informed wifey and she says she knew about it and has already bought the necessary clothes!! (Bless her!!) DD had made plans for a post-puja meet up on saturday night on diwali on someone's terrace for some aatish-baazi, pataake, mini gambling and booze. I am not sure about the gambling part of it (unless they involve 10 rupee notes!!) but i am sure i can afford the rest of it!! Weekend is still 2 days away!! Need to meet-the-in-laws, the periappa and co., dad's relatives, mom's relatives, skool friends, college friends, general friends, then the bikers, jeepers!! I have no clue how i am gonna manage all this in 24 teeny weeny hours!! Let's see what Diwali has in store for me!! Mebbe some kind hearted soul will read all this, call up a few people and buy me an IPOD as a birthday / wedding / diwali gift!! (hehehe, i hope and i don't quit!!!) Got a recent promotion at work, as a Team Manager. Works definitely lesser than what it used to be (daily blogging proves it na??!!!), and i am enjoying it!! The agents who report to me are pretty sinciere. No hassles!! Let's see, next week should definitely be more interesting!! So until next week, adios amigos and Happy Diwali!!!October 19 RTMC 5ADamn!!! when i finished typing the whole thing, the f***in spaces thing refuses to work!! had to start all over again!! The worst is i don't even remember what i typed properly!! I do know i promised readers about the events happening in daily life, but sheesh!! Can't remember them well enough now!! Oh yes, Deja vu!!! Same time, same place, better partyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!! Oh yes, the Yercaud RTMC 5A Happened this time around too!! but this time I went with 2 babies!! Swapna and Trinity!!
 We had an amazing 2 night party that resulted in most of us not seeing the daylight for those days (snoring blissfully!!!) The ride was terrific, roads have improved vastly from last year!! Oh yes, that terrible patch of road i was lamenting about last year still exists!! 4 kms of unpaved terror on the highway!! We had a sprinkling of RD's along with a enviable number of bullets!! 3 RD's to be precise, mine, Burny (Maxx) and Dipesh (DD). Very simply said it was a fact that was proved to the self proclaimed 'motorcycle messiahs of the highway' that the RD was no 'fussy, oh i am so gentle i can be used only in the city' types of bike!! The Rd's not only roared all the way across to Yercaud and back but made it without A SINGLE HITCH!!!! Now thats something that will be a smile to every RD fanatic!!  Anyways,w as great fun, the RTMC guys rocked as usual, party was fantastic, great music, weird dancing, weirder talk after getting drunk was all part of it!! There was this little bit running about the 'ghost bike'. Story goes this wayPrelude / Facts you need to know: Me and DD have had enough parties together to know when the booze runs out and everyone is itching for another drink to complete that 'high'. So we secretly stock up 8 beers inside DD's icebox which is stashed behind his Ikon.
Time: 2 AM
Location: Outside party hall overlooking the 150 odd bikes parked there, on DD's Ikon
Participants: Me, DD, Maxx (for a very brief period), Abhi, Freya and the some of the RTMC fellas
Scene:
(background patter of rain and drunken mumbling)
The discussion is frantic about an RD doing a 160 kmph.
Abhi (laughing): Hahahahahaa!! stupid fellows!! How is it possible machan!! Bob you are drunk!!
DD: Yeah right!! (turns away to get another drink)
Abhi: Fack machan we are out of drinks!!
At this point me and DD are grinning ear to ear. DD does the magician's act and pulls out an ultra chilled beer from the boot of his car!!
Abhi: Machan!! You are god!!! How did you do that!!
(Heavy laughing ensues!! Main participants me and DD. Odd khat khat khat khat sound at the background)
Me: What the hell was that??
Abhi: You drunk idiot, thats the automatic sprinkler system!!
Me: Shut the fack up, don't I know how a sprinkler sounds??!! Ass!!
Abhi: Get lost ra facker!! Now we lets get back to the RD discussion.
Discussion ensues with odd sound emanating every 5 minutes or so. Me trying to interrupt but stopped by Abhi (jackass!!)
Abhi (suddenly screaming!): Bobby!!! Bobby!!!Bobby!!!Bobby!!!Bobby!!! (runs away into the distance with beer bottle in hand and returns back sober. no sign of beer bottle. Presumably emptied over running around)
DD: Dude that sound is odd man!!
Abhi: You both are drunk asses!! thats the sprinkler!!
(khat khat khat khat thud thud thud thud!!!)
DD: THAT IS A SPRINKLER???!! thats a fackin bike man!!! lets see who the hell is trying to go out now!! caman all of you!!
We searched the entire place, no one was on a bike or even trying to start one!! So finally we come back. Khat khat khat khat thud thud thud!!! damn!!! this was scary!!! this bike which I was standing next to was trying to start itself up!! no rider, no keys!!! AAAAAAAAAAAA
 !!!!Run for your lives people!! place is haunted!! We sober down in like half a microsecond. Being the 'brilliant engineers' we are, we cautiously inch ourselves towards the ghost bike!! I quickly run in and pull out the spark plug!! Khat khat khat khat thud thud thud!! Me runs back to safe cover for dear life!! Totally freaked!! Abhi pulls out the ignition wiring next!! there is no way after this we think!! but, khat khat khat khat thud thud thud!! damn!! thats one determined ghost!! finally we dislodge the battery and the noise stops!!
Enter Freya: "Hey what you silly boys doing at this time" and parks her rear straight on the "ghost bike"!!! khat khat khat khat thud thud thud!!!
The next thing we hear is a screaming and freya 20 feet up in the air!!!
HAHAAA!! Was a funny sight!!! We decided to call it quits before any other 'ghost' decided to show up and retired for the day!! On the way back me and DD finished the 4 beers and 'steadily' walked back to our rooms for a fitful sleep!!Return journey was terrific too, not many stops, no glitches, started at about 10 in the morn and reached chennai by 5.30 in the eve. Trinity was all out on the highway!! The 160 kmph was proved more than many times to shut everyone up!! Felt happy, had great dinner and slept well!! Great ride, better party, lovely time!! Waiting for the next party........ |
