Signed up to Monster.com cuz a friend told me they send you the best offers. Two days on what am I getting? Loads of emails - all I.T. shit ... Java, Lava, This ++, That ++! One that had me laughing my ass off was where they said they were looking for specialists in backend design!

Anyway, I gave Ash and Abhi six months. Now I'm giving them three. Overheard at La Mer last night by ever vigilant neigbours--

Ash (screaming at the top of her voice): Woh aadmi hai kya jaanwar ... is he a man or a f*****g animal??

Abhi: He is part of the Bachchan family now baby, you know that. There is nothing we can do. If it wasn't for him, we'd be-

Ash: I don't care, get it ... I just don't f*****g care! No normal human being can eat so many laddoos!

Abhi: It's just that Amar Singhji has a big appetite darling ... I don't see what the problem is.

Ash: The problem is he doesn't know when to stop. As long as it's your fathers laddoos he's eating, that's fine, but the minute he starts eyeing my laddoos....

Abhi (shaking head): I don't understand why you're getting hyper like this

Ash: Stop shaking your head! ... ever since you did those stupid ads all you do is shake your f*****g head!!

The heat here is really getting to me. Damn, I could drink a whole case of beer. Speaking of drinking, a question I've often asked my non-drinker friends when we go out to a pub or a restaurant: How can you buggers not drink?? Because I tell you, it is the most boring thing in the bludy world going out with people who don't drink. Cuz you're having a beer and they're like having a fruit juice or a soft drink ... and while a person can down 4 to 5 beers in the span of an evening, they can drink one, maybe two fruit juices/soft drinks max. So after they're done, they're left staring at you and your glass of golden manna! And then they want to eat, the bludy rotters! And I'm like: Hey hang on Jack, I don't want to eat so damn soon ... I'm still on my third beer!

Nobody's saying drink rum or whisky or vodka ... have a beer man, it won't kill you. But no, they look at it like it's the poison that killed Bob Woolmer!

So who do you think's gonna take the Cup ... damned Kangaroos of course. Though I'm secretly hoping them Lankans give them a good whopping!

Sheryl Crow - Sweet child of mine .... news is Axl Rose and Slash the Ripper be making a trip to Mumbai soon ... yeah, you heard it here first. Rock on brothers!

I know a specialist in backend design having great flair for sketching backends in class during lectures Maybe i should ask him to sign up on Monster.com .....

The Ash-Abhi quarrel is real sad. The day they break up will be one of the saddest days in the annals of Indian history. Most relationships wither away because of another man or woman! Who would have thought it would be Amar Singh...
