November 9, 2009

Bill Gates organized an enormous session to recruit a new Chairman for Microsoft Europe. 5000 candidates assembled in a large room.

One candidate is our Kutty.

Bill Gates: Thank you for coming.Those who do not know JAVA may leave.

2000 people leave the room.

Kutty says to himself,’I do not know JAVA, but I have nothing to lose if I stay. I’ll give it a try !’

Bill Gates: Candidates who never had experience of managing more than 100 people may leave.

2000 people leave the room.

Kutty says to himself ‘I never managed anybody by myself, but I have nothing to lose if I stay.. What can happen to me ?’ So he stays.

Bill Gates: Candidates who do not have management diplomas may leave.

500 people leave the room.

Kutty says to himself, ‘I left school at 15, but what have I got to lose ?’ So he stays in the room.

Lastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak Serbo-Croat to leave.

498 people leave the room.
Kutty says to himself, ‘I do not speak one word of Serbo-Croat but what do I have to lose ?’ So he stays and finds himself with one other candidate; Everyone else

has gone.

Bill Gates joined them and said
‘Apparently you are the only two candidates who speak Serbo-Croat, so I’d now like to hear you have a conversation together in that language.’

Calmly, Kutty turns to the other candidate and says
‘Naatil Evidey ?’ (Where are you from in Kerala?)

The other candidate answers…

‘Thrissur’ (A city in Kerala)

Glass shattering scream

November 9, 2009

It is not a new movie trailer, It was an incident which happened this morning at my home, my second son was sleeping in the bedroom, I just stepped out of the attached bath room of my bedroom, all I could hear is glass shattering scream from the hall and it sounded like my elder son, my wife who was in the kitchen, cooking ran towards the hall.

At first, I thought it was some kind of prank, Yes he does often. But this one sounded little odd. And the multiple screams did make my wife’s leg shake in fear, Neither she didn’t understand what was going on.

I wasn’t wearing my powered glasses but did see some black kind of thing moving just around the corner of my bedroom. I was bit worried for my sleeping second son, I didn’t panic.

Still the screaming was going on, my wife inquiring for reason. I started to laugh and my second son woke up.

I had nothing to worry, It was a god damn squirrel, After 3 long days of rain, which just stopped and I believe it was in search for food. Happen to smell some thing from the Kitchen, After hearing my elder son screaming, The squirrel panicked, ran helter skeltor and then entered the bedroom for safety.

Gosh, It was one hell of a drama this morning. By the way the squirrel is still around my bedroom, I guess he wants to setup a sweet home on my bedroom loft.

Here are some photos of the after rain math.
