THE DAY BOBBY GOT FUCKED - PART - 1 - By Ravi Kiran

PARTY DAY - 7:00PM, ANNA NAGAR.

"Cheers!!!"...said everyone in unison.

"Sarangan, this champ-agni is berrry nice." said Bobby as he gulped down a portion of Champagne and chased it with some cheese and pineapple on a stick. "I am so glad I bunked office and came here. I just told them I don't feel like coming today, and my office was perfectly fine with it."

We stood in the balcony, which gave us a fantastic view, letting us admire the five RD350s parked outside. Zoo, Sarangan, Burny and Bobby went slightly 'rocket'. There were others at the party too, but it's a little hazy. I know Dosai was there, but his role starts a few paragraphs later.

PARTY DAY - 3.00PM, ANNA NAGAR

The night goes and we move to an assortment of beverages, one after the other - vodka, whisky, beer, anything we could get our hands on with alcohol content. It was a fantastic party as usual, with lots of talking and general RD discussions. Sarangan played some Jethro Tull, and we ended having Jet Airways finest. We finally parted ways only to realise that Bobby is too smashed to go back home. Also, he had a small predicament that affects a few men, 'fear-of-wife'. So we went to my house and slept.

DAY AFTER PARTY - 9.00AM, (SOMEWHERE IN TNAGAR)

Swapna: Hello? Hi, is Bobby there?

Manager: Oh, Hi, Swapna, how is your father?

Swapna: Why, what happened?

Manager: Bobby said your Father was seriously ill and that he had to go to the hospital. So I told him he didn't have to come to office last night. How is your father?

Swapna: Oh! (Bobby, you @*$%!&!!!) He is fine. Thanks for letting Bobby come, we really needed his support.

Manager: Ok Swapna, take care then

Swapna: Bye.

DAY AFTER PARTY - 9.00AM ANNA NAGAR

"Dai, Bobby! I am off to office, lock the door and go back to sleep. Drop of the keys at my office on your way home", as I was just about to turn around and leave, I saw Bobby jump up like a spring and chanting "Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit..." On enquiring, apparently, I was on the recieving end because I didn't wake him up at 6 o clock in the morning. Bobby took off home right then, and I left for office, still reeking of alcohol.

DAY AFTER PARTY - 11.00AM ANNA NAGAR

My phone rings.

Me: Hello?

Swapna: (sob, sob. sniff, sniff)

Me: Heloooo?

Swapna: Ravi?

Me: Swapna?! (uh oh) Why are you crying?

Swapna: Ravi, I want you tell me the truth.

Me: Hello? Hello? ....Sw...Hel..

Swapna: Dai, I know you can hear me

Me: Okay...what do you want to know?

Swapna: Where was Bobby last night?

Me: (I cant believe I have a call waiting at this time - Burny??? Why was he calling?)

Swapna: Please Ravi, I need to know. Where was Bobby last night? I called his office and they said he didn't show up. So where was he?

Me: Ok, he was at my place. But what is the matter? (what the hell does does Burny want? - now Bobby's calling?! UH-OH! This means trouble)

Swapna: Ravi, please don't lie to me.

Me: I swear it, he was in my house. Er...I will have to call you back.

DUMMMMM.......

Its a loong fackin time since I went to Ladakh but still the memories remain. This pic is one such beautiful sight enroute to Lamayuru from Leh. I never actually did write about this trip but what the heck, I saw all this and came back to tell stories about it. We still laugh when we start off conversations with " Macha.. Back home in Keylong ".

This year the mountains are calling again but I guess I wont be doing the same stretch again for the next couple of years. Maybe North East, maybe Uttranchal, maybe the Rann but what looks bight right now is the South. There is a liquid plan of doing the East and West belt of South India. Loads of us would have gone to Ladakh but most of us would not have seen much of the south. This trip will mostly center around visiting nook and corner of Kerala, visit important places in Andhra, Karnataka and Tamilnadu. 20 days needed to do this aaraam se. So lets all see how this liquid plan solidifies and lets see how many actually join in and finally lets see how many actually ride. Its Feb and there is still loads of time.

And all that Jazz


After all the abuses and KWAK THOOs and more abuses later, Me and Divs finally decided that Wednesday would be the right time to meet up and catch up on whats going on wonlee. There was this choice of Amethyst or Anokhi. The previous day i get a call from her askin if I know JAZZ ( Waddafack ) and that there is a Jazz concert happening Wednesday evening and she has been marked to cover the event for this Hindu - IT CORRIDOR specific suppliment called ERGO ( wat a nice ). So I was naturally exited because i am drama king and can anytime pull off as a Journalist with jolna pai and soda butti :P~. There was also this clause from her end that I behave myself at the concert. So this is where it got Jazzed :-)

Picked up Divs at 6.30 and moved towards Alliance in neck to neck traffic. Divs was like " I am gonna faint dude cause am that hungry ". So we finally manage to reach the venue at 7 ( HAH THANKS TO MY ELITE RIDING SKILLS ). We run up to the Audi and find that the concert has not started yet so caman the run to the canteen wonlee. Couple of Sandwiches later, we enter the audi to find Madam Lisa Patterson explaining what this is all about. She starts off with the singing while her hands played around on the Keys of a M-Audio Keyboard. Couple of songs later a Kurta wearing dude joined in with his collection of Flutes. This guy's name was Naveen and MAN he knows how to blow his wind instruments. Lovely wonlee it was. Then Keith and Subbu join Lisa on Bass and percussions. No came the real thing, full jamming session with solo pieces of all three instruments. Well i dont remember the names of the songs they played but there was in song in the end with loads of Hallelujah in it. For a second I thought i was sitting in a Paul Dhinakaran's assembly of god prayer meet BWHAHAHAHAHAHA. Then Divs next to me starts to sing along too and well ahemmmm I join in too. What fun I say. The concert ends at 9.30 and divs runs up to Lisa to have a few words. Full page three wonlee :P~. Frankly speaking she was kick ass when she did covers and when she was on high scales. However there was lil loss of control when the song went slow.

Both the two of us exit Alliance and head out to Cream Center for dinner. After a Pasta - In - Pasta and a FACKIN HUGE glass of Peach ice tea later, I drop Divs home and head back home myself with visions of Lisa doing that scottish dance between sticks. HUP HUP HUP :-). All in all a fantastic evening.

Spell errors are always there in whatever i write SO DONT POINT IT OUT x-(

Becoming the God Of War


Heard about thoughts in the morning, decision in the afternoon and buying what you decided in the evening?? Well thats what happened when it comes to my Play Station 2. I had owned an Atari before - That was kazillion years back and all of a sudden on a saturday i was too tempted to buy a gaming console and make complete use of the Wega that i had got earlier. Now the problem was getting the cash together to buy this game station. In comes Gunfight and his Credit card BWHAHAHAHAHA. Me and Gun head out to Moosa Games and pick up 2 PS2 consoles. One for me and one for Goa Raj. I scan thru his numerous games collection and pick out some 6 games ( the usual mortal kombat , NFS and Tekken ). The owner dude tell me to try a particular Game and hands me a DVD with a faded label. That was the day i knew of God of War - II. Got back to my pad and plugged it in and started playing God Of War and I have been hooked on to the game till date.

The game was released early 2007 and is a sequel to the original GOW. It revolves around the Ghost of Sparta called Kratos and his mission to destroy Zeus. The Game play is fab and the weapons are outta this world. Athena's Blades, The Spear of Destiny, Typhoons Bane, Rage of Titans and so on. I finished the game last evening but my head is still spinning thinking of the final battles. I would say go on Youtube and search for God Of War 2 to figure out what i am talking about.

Caution - The Game is quite graphic and contains some nudity too. The Sirens who appear in the game are all full topless wonlee ( Wat a nice ). Lahkesis - One of the 3 sisters of fate keeps flashing her goodies too. Clotho - The last sister of Fate is quite gross and u seriously don't want to look at this :P~

Bajaj Pulsar 220 DTS-Fi


Have ridden 3000 kms on it in a months time. Two services done to the bike, 2 long distance trips done, Have taken it on Ghats during night times. Have kept the bike on low, midrange and top-end ( to a certain extent ). So its high time to speak on what this fellow called the 220 actually is. This review is my personal opinion and will differ from what others think of the 220



Here goes :-))


Overall Mind-State = Happy that i got this bike :-)

Every rider in India thinks of two things when buying a bike. One being the price tag and the other being the Mileage. There is this third thing called performance which keeps jumping in and out. This bike bundles all three and comes out as a neat package.

Comfort - I owned a Thunderbird before and yes it was damn comfy. The 220 with its clip-ons are quite comfortable but does not come close the Bird. Well different league of bikes altogather so i shouldnt be comparing. But when you think 220 alone, the bike is comfortable. Has got a slight crouching posture and brings in a slight bend on ur elbows to bring in the sports tourer stance. I took it to Yelagiri once and once to Bangalore. I stopped every 100 kms for a short break of 5 mins. I had doubts on its touring abilities w.r.t comfort but now that is gone. All the above is for the rider alone. The pillion ( if any ) is gonna have a bitch of a time.

Stability - Bike is very allergic to crosswinds and there is a visible wobble when you are on the highway but this happens on any bike that is light-weight. The rear 120 are a boon and it sticks to the ground on straights and on turns. Have ridden the bike on wet tarmac too and bike handles very well. I personally feel that the 220 does not enter or exit a corner like a Honda. Till date i have never felt confident in take this bike into a turn - ALL OUT. Correcting this will be a huge plus point and you would start seeing loads of 220s participating on track


The Power - Responds very well to throttle. The FI unit is a uper sexy addon to this bike. Bike always starts on a single crank. The Low and Midrange are the noticable parts on this bike. The bike is a well behaved beast between 4000 and 6000 rpm. I think the bike enters powerbang on the lower rpms and goes all the way. There is slight change in bike characteristics after 6000 rpm. The bike's vibration almost triples and the Exhaust note changes from the silent grunt into a growl and then goes on to become a howl :P~. I everytime wish that this bike had one more gear.There are quite a few reviews out there which explain the power delivered by this bike. They make loads of sense so am not gonna write much in this dept but yes bike is WOW when it comes to power delivery.


Braking - Super is the word. The front and reat brakes are quite good. The rear brakes are open and is quite notorious as dust often gets in. My break have been squeaking from day one. Even a lil bit of cutting oil on the discs will render the brakes useless for the next 10 or 15 kms. Remember both are disk brakes so dont brake like you would usually brake on your old bikes. While riding, I have to make sure that the leg does not rest on the brake lever. This heats up the rear disks because of constant action.

Lights - Good on straight roads and completely useless when it comes to bends. I almost shat my load taking it on ghats during the night. You just cannot see the trail when you go into a corner. High beam or Low, it just does not light up a turn. On straights the light's throw is amazing. Even the big ones dip their lights for it High Beam.

Mirrors - Bajaj seriously went wrong here. The mirrors are absolutely useless. Rear view mirrors as the name indicate are used to see whats coming from the behind. All I can see with these mirrors are me. So mirrors need a change here. The fold option on the mirrors are a good idea. Protects the faring when the impact is on the mirror.


Status till date - 2 indicator bulbs have fused out and the black grills on the faring have started to rattle. Apart from this the bike is running like a dream. The bike does not need high octane petrol so normal unleaded will do good but make sure that its not a local petrol mix cause the injector will go for a toss.

Overall - Lovely bike to buy. Good price tag. A Mileage of 40 - 43 and the feel of a small superbike :P~

The longest i have ridden scarab is till Casuarina Bay Chai shop on ECR and come tomorrow I am taking a trip to Yelagiri on this fellow. Absolotely no problem till now except the right mirror vibrating a lil under good speeds. Bike has done 480 kms till date from the last full tank and it still has not gone into reserve and all i have been doing is riding in the city. Bet it churns out better kpl when ridden on the highway.

All in All - I would say it was a wise decision to buy the 220 FI. Things might change.. U never know :-)

Scarab is Finally Here

Bike looks, feels and moves like a beauty. Oh what a nice wonlee :-D

Sarah McLachlan - Blackbird (Afterglow Live)

Another Female singer whose voice is like full out sexy. This is her singing a Beatles Cover called BLACKBIRD :-)

Weekends are supposed to be sober and lazy for god's sake but its never been the case here. A gulti fellow from Bangy decides to come to Chennai heat for WHAT?? "Macha I wanna sit at the beach ra and eat PUPIL BURGERS" OH MY GAWD wonlee. He comes into chennai and settles down to enjaai the weekend without sleeping the past few days.

Saturday Evening - I come into the Beach at 6.30 and run to T-Nagar with Adi to get him his return ticket to Bangy. Finally back to the beach again wonlee to find out that plans have been made for a MAD SAT NIGHT at Mahabs. I was like " Oh fluck ". I park the Jawa at To-Pay's place and jump onto Katz's bike and vroooommmmmmmmm we go off to by the Cokes and Smokes. Meanwhile Bharath and Taapick are already raiding the ECR alcohol store to pick up the Monks.

The Ride - Chennai - Mahabs. The road most travelled by most of us in the group. The fab ECR with cat eyes and all. Zippety Zip we go on the 500 till the toll gate where the first regroup happens. I call up Adi and find out that he is still at the Beach with David and Bra. DARN THAT BIATCH. After a few abooses, both the three of them start out to meet the both the 12 of us at Casurina Chai. Topik and followers take off ahead to book rooms at Mahabs and to order dinna. I wat and wait and fackin wait and still no sign of the three. HRRRMPH. The clock strikes 15 to 11 and they chug chooga chug in. Adi demands that he wants to drink a glass of milk before riding again. KWAK THOOO is all I can say. We ride and ride and ride and finally enter into Mahabs which looks bright and lovely by day and seedily shady by night.

Dinner - I run into moonrakers and jump into the food and the beer (hic). Polish off few pieces of steak and some prawns and rotis and beef. We yall slowily swagger out of Moonrakers and check into the room.

Midnight Madness - The Monk starts the chants and the coke and smoke surround the entire room. Noone is let to sleep. The sleepers are pretty much scared that they would loose their family jewels if they even try to bat an eyelid. HAH, Dont come to a chennai party and doze off :P~. There is Kuthu mijik, There is dancing and as usual there is major yapping away. All this goes on till 4 in the morning.

The Beach - The gang decides to head to the beach at this hour to chase dogs. Katz says he wants to play on the See-Saws. Bharath wants to just crash which he finally does with his bed being David. BWHAHAHAHA. After 3 or 4 ppl being dunked into the sea. We all start back to the room and what do we bring along?? - Well the entire beach wonlee. The whole room fills up with sand from the shoes. The whole gang bids farewell to get back to chennai. Me, Topik, Bharath and Condom ( no funny ideas here ) decide to stay and wake up at 11ish.

The Morning - Woozy ofcourse. We wake up at 11 and head out to have a lovely English breakfast at this fellows place. This fellow must have humped Bob Marley real bad because he look like a bad cross btwn Bob and a badly fed tamilian. We start off from Mahabs and head back home and then WHAT ??? CRAAAAAAAAAASHHHHHH into the bed wonlee :-)

Weekdays are wild, Weedends are Madness.

PS - There will be lotsa spelling misdakes and the grammer will make Wren and Martin flip in their graves. So if yer looking for good english here then u may gracefully fluck off.

THE GREAT WEEKEND WRITEUP - BY DIPESH SHARMA

FRIDAY:

It all started on Friday night. Well, I thought it did, because Dosai and me couldn't remember what did we do or where were we on Thursday eve. It all comes back to me. Thursday was at Manu's place. Anyhow, Dosai wanted to join the Gym to enhance his 'Tai Chai' skills. Picked him and DJ from the beach, asked my maid to cook some chicken, called up Manu to join us and WhozFruityKid promised to be there by midnight (Yeah Right!). Regrouped at my place at around 8 PM. LET THERE BE ALCOHOL, we said. One case of KF, a batlee of Old Monk and a bottle of Teacher's. Manu left at 10:30 as he looked drunk from the previous night itself. Then came the major drinking concentrating on Beers. During one smoking session on the Balcony, DD and Dosai decide to show off muscles to DJ

Doasi: (Flexing his biceps) Feel this machan, this is muscle
DJ: (lightly touching bicep) Wow
DD: Feel my shoulder...this is muscle
DJ: Wow
Dosai: See my fore arm? Touch it man, its all muscle
DJ: It is awsome
DD: See this? (point to shin)
DJ: Wow, that's so solid
DD: Yeah, it's bone.

BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA .....

Then a few calls to Booby, who insisted that he is in a meeting, but background noise was more like music, party, cinema hall, Dutta......

Dosai stops drinking at two, after making some serious pronunciation mistakes, spitting out words that no sane or sober person could recognize. For example: Brahamnium = Brahmin sitting in Ramniam building, I assume Ashok lickland = a Lesbian truck????

Dosai concentrated on Sharbat till Booby arrived, who immediately went for the bottle of scotch like a dog at a bitch in heat. Dosai and DJ left at 4:30 after a lot of naansense talk. Bobby and me drank till 6:30, with him ranting about how he is gonna reach home. After making three different plans, he finally left, 3/4th of a bottle of scoth in his bloodstream, when the guy who's bike he had borrowed pleaded with him a few times to come back. Calls me next morning to ask how he reached home. Fakkan guy!!!!

SATURDAY:

Too much drinking on Friday, and a pending ride on Sunday early morning, so Dosai and me swore: No drinking tonight! Dosai and me hit the gym at 4:30 while Bob, Satya and better halves were visiting temples. Straight to P-Tabby's to inspect my bike (AWESOME, wait till you guys see it). Met Ravi there and after a few calls, gathered at Bob's place. Bob, Sapna, Satya and Dolly were there. Dosai and Ravi enter with usual hi's and hellos. Sapna and Dolly pounce on Dosai, full biting and clawing. Don't want to know why. Then an extremely good looking guy enters.

Everyone: Hey DD, what's up!

After very little convincing, and some damn good pakoras, courtesy Bob's Mom, Dolly and Sapna, We are ready to drink again with a promise on only one beer, which turns to two, and a then a plan to go to my place and drink more. Damn, I'm easy!! It's raining very hard, and Dosai decides to drive my car. Bobby, Dosai, Ravi and me head off home after parting ways with Satya, Dolly and Sapna. A few mysterious phone calls on the way and we hook up with DJ and his guitarist friend, who land up at my place, full strings tightened and tuned.

The Drinking begins again with the musicians jammin', the camera recording everything. This is when we discovered (You learn something new everyday):

1. Bobby has a Peter North
2. DJ is a big fan of Peter North, as he is the facial cumshot god. After this particular discovery I have strictly asked DJ to stay away from me and never, NEVER, touch me. If anyone ever wants to explore the other side of their sexuality, please contact DJ.
3. Bobby is a big fan of Jamie Carson (he meant Jenna Jameson)
4. Dutta's jeep, per WhozKid, can ride a 300 degree incline!!!!! !!!!!
5. The definition of Teleportation is being at two places in one time. There is a picture of Ravi's teleported feet from that night.

Ffffakkan guys!!!!

Bobby insists on a "Profession" video of "college of Satyabhama" and sits down to sing to live guitars with the lyrics in front of him. He also insists that Dosai do the chorus and no one else sings. Another thing we discovered is that when drunk, Bob is blind. He messed up the lyrics even while reading them out. Somewhere in the middle he starts singing Hotel Satyabhama.

And then:

There she stood wit the candle....In the dark of the night!!!

Dosai sitting next to Bob is trying to kill himself as he no longer can bear the torture to bobby singing in his ear. All captured on Video. Fackin' Hilarious.

Now comes the best part. Ravi and Dosai, my friends, are geniuses. They did a 20 second video on Princes' My Name is Prince, with Ravi's hands behind his back, and Dosai using his hands from behind Ravi. The Video is very disturbing. Bordering on gay beastality and twisted erotisicm, I would not advice the sane of mind and faint of heart to see. Since that breed doesn't exist within the Jets, YOU HAVE TO SEE THE VIDEO! It will change your life forever! I guarantee you that.

After an hour of laughing and consequent aching neck and jaw muscles, some more drinking and jammin wonlee. Dosai leaves in my car at 3:00. Everyone else ate, finishing everything, absolutely everything to eat in my house. I had water for breakfast next morning. Now there are three bikes, four people (if Ravi can be called one after the video) and two guitars, one without a cover. One of the bikes was a single seater.
After much deliberation, I think the plan was that, Ravi would stand behind Bob on the single seater holding the guitar. Must have been a facking hilarious sight if they had done that. Everyone says good night and leaves at 4:00 WE all knew the ride is not happening at 8 AM.

SUNDAY:

Get up at 8:00 with Jai's call. Straightaway lied when he asked "Dont tell me you just woke up". Please read Jai's post about the Mahabs ride. Mellu, Dosai and me pushed off to Pondy to have beer at a beach facing bar. Great time drinking listening to rock, and clicking lot of pictures (even a French babe hailing a rickshaw). All my SMSs of a great time we were having at Pondy irritated everyone enough to meet us at Mahabs for dinner. Successfull bootlegging of 7 bottles of alchohol. A couple of Chai's and some romantic sunset pics ( a.k.a. roadside gay sex) of Raja and Dosai we reach Mahabs at 9. Almost everyone, but Bob (you suck, main jet) and Satya were there for come crabe eating and beer drinking. The evening is a haze so if anything interesting happened, some one please write. Interesting pics, but with so little blood in my alcohol stream, I don't remember much. I think Raja got his arse kicked by his mom. All in all, great great weekend. Please add to this if I have missed something.


Peace

Ahhh what a weekend :-)


There was Aerosmith @ Bangalore, There was a gulti fella going to
Bangalore, There was the first run of Greater Bangalore Hash and then
there was this option of just staying in Chennai, slowly get deep
fried due to this bright fackin star called the SUN and ultimately run
outta energy and then caman office on monday. All these were running
inside by grey-cells less head when Bala over a smoke session told me
and Ajith that He and Naren will take the car and not bikes to
Mudumalai. BINGO, DOUBLE BINGO... The scenic views of Mudumalai slowly
started creeping inside my head and by end of Thursday I was all
exited to get started. Had a thanni session with Mamada and Gokul.
Spent the night dreaming of the forest.

Day One - Friday

Woke up early in the morning. One tea and one chettiar meeting later,
I was at Bala's place with my bike just dying outta fuellessness at
his doorstep (phew). Had a nice cuppa kaapi and started the drive at
5am sharp. Picked up Ajith @ porur and then it was CAMAN THE YELAGIRI.
3 hours flat out and we are there to meet Naren. Spent sometime at the
Adventures site and the 4 of us piled into the car with Naren taking
the wheel. Comfy drive, Comfy car and friends around. WOW wonlee i say
:-). Stopped at Dharmapuri for a veggie lunch. Passed Metur, Attani,
Andiyur and reached Satyamangalam in the evening. The roads were sexed
out after this. Started climbing dhimbum ghats via Bannari. Dhimbum is
a place on top of the Satyamangalam range. This place seperates
Tamilnadu from karnataka. You climb the ghats from TN and climb down
into KA. Could clearly see the difference in road conditions. Roads in
KA were FACAL period. Stopped at a chai shop @ Dhimbum and had some
awesome chai. I would have clearly called up cozees at this point in
time and given him a piece of my mind regarding the fucked up chai he
serves back in chennai. Moved on to Thalavadi from Dhimbum thus
entering TN again. Thalavadi was a desolate village but roads were all
tarmac and louly wonlee. Moved on to enter KA again and stopped at
Chamrajnagar to adjust car headlights. The time was around 9PM.
Reached Gudalpet around 10ish and then came the forest area. Stopped
10 kms before Bandipur for a break. The place was pitch dark and outta
nowhere came these 20,30 villagers who surrounded the car and asking
us whaddafack we were doing there. We all asked Naren to move outta
the place and Naren slowly started moving. The angry villagers started
running behind the car and started pelting stones at it. BUNCH OF
BASTARDS wonlee hrrrmph. Was stopped at the forest checkpost by the
guards. The car got checked and we were let go peacefully. 2 bends
into the forest, all of us spotted a baby elephant and Holy daddy of
God - A Huge Tusker guarding the baby. WOOOO HOOO. The trip was worth
it I say. Naren kept the car at a steady 30 kmph and all 4 of us were
trying really hard to spot any other wildlife. Saw loads and loads of
deer and finally came into Masinagudi at 11.30 PM after an awesome
lunch+beer @ Pugmark. Turned from the main road to go to Wildways. 2
bends later.. We almost ran into a Tusker who was standing in the
middle of a 90 degree bend. HOOLY SHITE WONLEE. Naren stopped the car
and slowly started reversing but didnt move outta signt of the tusker.
Sat inside and jus watched the big one cross the road and after some
10 good mins the big boy got bored of us and moved into the
wilderness. Shaken like a Vodka Martini, the 4 of us finally settled
down at Wildways for the night. Me and Naren went off to sleep and
suddenly woke up in the middle of the night to dog barks. Naren took
out the search light and went out and spotted a whole group of Wild
pigs. I missed seeing em. Ajith didnt sleep the who light because he
was lil shaken that a Panther would decide to come into his room and
share his bed BWHAHAHAHHAHAA.

Day Two - Saturday

Woke up early and showered. Steaming hot idlis and aapams were served
by Abhid's wife. After belting down the food. Me, Ajith, Bala, Naren
and Abhid took off to the trekking spot. This place was 18 kms off
Kothagiri. The trek route was called the SHOLUR TRAIL. We climbed up
Kallati ghats to reach ooty and proceeded towards kothagiri. 2 Card
ripping up Kallati ghats was a sight to see. This pirticular ghat
section is damn steep and Naren handled the bends like a pro.
Proceeded to the tea estate from where the trek was to start. Bala
packed us all Lunch and off we went towards the sholur forest. Ajith
backed out from the trek after a kilometer and returned to the car.
Bala, Me, Naren, Abhid, two guards and a forest ranger took off on the
trek. The climb was fast and tiring. It was good distance too. Some 4
kms into the trek, Bala had a bad migrane attack and we all turned
back to the start point. The climb back was fast and break-less. We
reached the start point wonlee to find the car and ajith missing. he
came back in sometime wonlee to tell us that he missed the route back
and was walking round and round the tea estate. HAHAHA. We trekked up
and down the mountains and he trekked up and down the chai estate.
Bala started fixing us sandwiches which we hungrily hogged away :-D.
Started around 3 Pm from Kothagiri and reached Ooty. I am coming back
to Ooty after a looooooong time and man this place is conjested like
crazy. Checked into YWCA and called the RTMC boys who I thought were
in Masinagudi. These buggers actually had come up to Ooty to roam
around the place. Met up with Adman, Captain G and Sam Pedrosa for a
short while. They had to get back to Masinagudi before the ghat
checkpost closed down. The 4 of us packed up and went to meet Doc who
was close to Ajith. Doc arranged for us to wine and dine at a hotel (
forgot the name of the place ). Got smashed and Naren drove us all
back to YWCA and SNOREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE wonlee.


Day Three - Sunday

Started from Ooty at 9 in the morning, Stopped for some chai and
patty. Got loads of chocolated and climed down the hillto reach
metupalayam. Drove down to Satyamangalam and then reached
Vani-yumm-badi Khaja @ 4pm for Lunch. From there it was home turf.
Belted the car back to Chennai and came straight to the beach to meet
up with the boys and have some veshams :-))

Mashed Potatoes and Beef Pepper Steak ( Well Done )


Long Long ago last saturday there was an office lunch that was planned longer than the long long ago so everyone decided to head out to mahabs on a hot saturday afternoon to belt down some crabs and fish. Lil did they know that guys like me are already deep fried because of the darn sun so off we went sweating as we rode what kept me going was the hazy image of a tall kingfisher bottle chilled and calling out to me So settled down at Moonrakers and I say " Boys let the Lager FLOW WONLEE" so along came the beers and the sear fish and the potatoes and prawns.Belted on the food and got a lil drunk too since me and 4 others on bulls were too exhausted to ride back to chennai we decided to sleep a bit at Mahabs inside a conditioned room and take off home in the evening. Then I remember that I had guitar classes and decided to head back while the boys stayed back. I reached Unwind skool of Mujik wonlee to find that we had a Guitar test that day OH FACK WONLEE. Attended the test scored a pass mark and then it was Mahabs calling again - WOO HOO - Came back to Mahabs and joined the group on the beach sitting on a boat. No beer but whiskey and rum this time. Came back to moonrakers for dinner and again we binged and since the room was available till 12 noon the next day
we fackin decided to spend the night at mahabs. I was like " OH YEAH BABY" Called up the chennai boys and told em and they came in too then the party on started and went late into the night

Slept and wokp up at 10
rode back at 11
was at a friends place for lunch at 2
Saw panic room at 4

Weekend Misadventures

A neat weekend wonlee I say :-)))

Came home sharp at 5.30 on Friday evening and changed and took off to Kanna's place. Have a bite to eat and then began the Salsa lessons for an hour and a half with Prema and Hema teaching us Swing. Good Fun. office on a saturday morning is always a bitch but wat the hell wonlee, lets make it fun. Night pardy place was decided as Kanna's new house. I went off to guitar classes sat evening and was strumming away till 9ish. Came to the beach to find a huge group there and then headed out to Kanna's place with all of em. Bose saar joined us too :-) Went to coronet for dinner and after this me and vijay decided to ride on the ECR to join Naren @ viewpoint. Here the adventure started.

Decided to do 60s till destination and 4 kms after Casuarina Bay the back tire blew and the bike started fishtailing like crazy. Just couldnt control the bike but finally got it to stop. Got down pretty shaken up. The dude who was on a Caliber taling me stopped and said " Saar bike aa super aa control pannuneenga saar" I was like " Ada poda goiyaale ". Vijay came back to where I was standing and we decided to call Naren who came in the next 5 mins. 1.30 in the night, Not even a light in sight, Lonely ECR, Noone stopping to help. Man it was freaky. Naren decided that he will ride the punctured bike to Casuarina Chai and fackin DID IT too. Amazing supermotard ishtyle riding by Naren. Parked the bike at the chai shop and jumped on to Narens bike. Phew what a night :-)


Sunday Morning - Went to Casuarina Chai again with Vijay and Adi's rear wheel ( Thanks man ). Got the thing fixed. The time was already 2 in the afternoon and plans of going to the track got screwed. Had a good sleep and went with Adi and Raj in the evening to watch Steve Vatz play. Good fun for the 30rs that we paid. Came to the beach at 9ish and the yapping began. Went to Coronet for dinner and took off to Solo's place where a drinking session was in order. Was heading home when I got hauled up by the cops near my house. They checked papers and let me go. The wierd thing was that there was a 15 year old girl who was walking along at that time of the night. She got stopped and the SI started questioning her. I offered to drop the kid home and took her pillion till her place. Called her parents outside and gave em a piece of my already useless mind for letting the kid come back from Gingee all alone. Phew again.. What a night :-)

PS - There will be Spelling Meesdakes... So wat wonlee ??

Iron Maiden - Consolation ride


One of the biggest names in the Heavy Metal mujik industry was to play in Bangy. Yes its IRON MAIDEN. These buggers have entertained me from the time I started to listen to these kind of moosik. Regular dudes playing skull crushing Metal and to top it all thers EDDIE. I was more than exited to go to this concert on the 17th of march but the belwo lines will tell you what happened during that weekend.

Couple of weeks back Adi and I got tickets for this show and we decided to ride down with a few other head bangers to Bangalore. Party thru the concert and after it and then roam about Bangy on sunday and then work in Bangy on Monday and the ride back early tuesday morning. None of this fackin ever happened. So what ekjaktly happened ??? Read on dudes...


Boss and Chief took off to Yelagiri on Friday to take care of work there and Adi backed outta the whole Iron Maiden plan saying that he has to go to Tenali. WHAT SHIT WONLEE. I said fack the concert man, Lets ride to Yelagiri even though I still wanted to go to the concert real bad. A lil later i changed my decision saying that I will go to the concert and touch Yelagiri on the way. The same day I again told Ajith that I will caman yelagiri and stay there and hell with eddie and the dudes. Called everyone i knew to sell off the tickets but everyone had already got one. FACKIN WONLEE. Went to Ajith place and got his Machismo back home and jumped into bed. The alarm rang at 4 on saturday morning


Woke up at 4 and quickly packed and I was outta my house at 5.30. Reached Meridian at 5.45 so see Bra and another dude standing there with their bikes. Parked and waited for the rest. Ravi and Ajith came and so did a few others.

Ravi - TB350
Ajith - Green Beary, STD 500
Me - CBR 1000RR ( I wish ). Was riding Ajith's A350 called "I MADBULL"
Prabhu - Electra
Bhuvan - TB350
Badri - TB350
Jerry - 350
Bra - TB350

Started off and went to fuel up at shell. A chai later, the gang rolled out at 6.30. Me and Ajith were running in the bikes so maintained slow speeds. Ravi decided to stick with us eventhough he was the other groups sweep. Did steady speeds till Vellore and stopped at a small shop for breakfast. I decided to skip breakfast and started with the gang again. Stopped at Ambur to do some shoe shopping. Ordered a riding boot while the other fackars did lotsa shoe purchasing. From there rode down to Ponneri for the final stop. This is the main stop because of the huge alcohol purchase :P~. Had good fun climbing up the ghats and rode straight into Country Club where Naveen was waiting for us. Unloaded luggage and me, ravi and ajith took off towards our office property to meet Bala and Naren. Could see lotsa developments in the Adventure Camp that FogHorn is building. Rode back to Country club, Had an awesome lunch at Nigress and then all the boys camaned the drinking. I decided to rest my absolutely useless head and went off to sleep. Woke up at 6.30 to find noone. Ravi came in an hour later and me, ravi and prabhu went back to the Camp area to find the boys drinking on top of the 207 truck. The Sky was absolutely clear and I was thinking of coming here sometime to do some star gazing. Then Bala and Naren decided to take us on a 7KM rollercoaster ride back to the country club. FACK THIS WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT :-))))). Naren was in absolute maniac mode and he decided to make sure that our family jewels come to our mouth. Bala in front, Naren behind the wheels of the 207, Prabhu, Ranga and me on the luggage area. That 7 kms were bliss. Naren whacked the car in all directions and was drifting on every bend. Came back absolutely shocked to Nigress and had dinner on top of the 207 wonlee. GOOD FUN. Joined Naveen after this for some daaru and smokes. Mid of all this, The non-drinkers ( Me, ravi and prabhu ) decided to go down the ghats to the 9th bend to have a look. I think this was the best decision I have ever taken. The sight was breath taking man. Looking at 4 major towns from 2 kms uphill is absolute bliss. Retired at 2.30 in the night and woke up at 6.30. Got ready, Packed and went to the site. Was there till 11.30 and finally headed towards chennai. Stopped at Vellore for lunch and mech break and rode at good speeds to chennai. Reached chennai at 5 in the evening. Went straight home, dumped the luggage and changed and rode again to Uthandi for the Hash run. Finally came back home at 9.30, Had dinner and CRASHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

PS: I didnt read the whole thing again to correct spells so facaf if yall cant read.

I have never ever posted lyrics to a song here on my blog but this is somethin else. Sung by Amy Lee for a movie called Daredevil. You would notice the song in the movie when Jennifer Garner seeks revenge by turning into Elektra. I was under the impression that Amy's songs were not of my liking but fackin she just proved me wrong :-)

My Immortal - Evanecence

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

>>

This song is a must listen. Trust me it is.

Long shot of the stage. Me and Adi has tickets and we were figuring out how to get a ticket for Ravi 'the Gulti' Kiran. Finally went over to IIT, got the tickets and called him to caman to the rock show. It was too funny standing in the Q into the show. Adi was naturally pissed that he was frisked and was asked to open his wallet and all that.. Well WELCOME TO SAARANG mon.

The Show opened up with JYG and they entertained the crowd. I personally enjoted their version of Vertigo and their own comp "Folk you". Then came Merhzin and it was CAMAN THE FRENC ENJAIMENT. Finally left the place at 10.30 and went off to Kannas place for Dinner and a drink.

Loook Maaa No rear :-)

Was a fine evening and I was enroute to the Beach, ripping on OMR and all of a sudden a loud bang but I still kept going. Hardly 300m away the bike wobbled and then what ?? A FLAT.. Damnit. I couldnt even push the bike as the rear wheel refused to move its ass. Then I called SEARCH AND RESCUE member David Gillete Razor and he came in with his Birdie and the mech. Had to wait an hour and a half to get the flat done. Some tube mixup in the middle too. Dave.. Thanks dude. A beer on me.. Wait u dont drink so facaf.
