All roads lead to ruin

Roads .... where are they ? some claim that they will be done only after the elections , some claim that the roads were good before the rains... In Chennai my till date opinion was that it was better than Bangalore - but now I see arterial roads non existent and key roads leading out of the city nothing more than dirt tracks..

Especially the poonamalle high road and EVR Salai - one would need an SUV for driving there. Mercedes listening ? you could do a test drive here and that would make you a lot of customers. I personally do not mind offering my time for testing for free though. I do something good for the country now and then , let it be through testing the chennai roads!!

Other than that most roads are half full with parked vehicles and roadside vendors - I know election is approaching and you cannot make enemies with anyone but is it correct ?

I do not know if I would vote ( If I can come from Bangalore for the same...)
Virdee if you are listening , you could use my fundamental right anyway since the voters list is so screwed up.

People in Glass Houses should not throw stones

HEHE QUITE TRUE .. Life in Saint Gobain is muck like a glass house but of course with 800 tonnes of glass being produced everyday in the same facility , I would love to have some stones....

Or the least I could do is throw my laptop into the furnace and claim that I cannot be of any use to this project and go back!!!! just kidding ... I would never do that to my laptop but the other half remains...

Bad timings - wake up at 5 in the morning and reach back at 9:30 in the night leaves time for nothing and that makes jack a dull boy and of course nothing to do but type away when someone else asks the questions and I am dutifully minuting the meeting @#@#%$@ which means that I am a glorified Stenographer. And to top it if no one thinks you are to be used in the project - reminds you of Stanley Ipkiss and the doormat phrase.

But thats what it is going to be for another 2 months and maybe this is not my cup of teas... oops coffee , I am in Chennai!!!
