funny moments..

Every one experiences moments in life, which, when later recollected, can't help bringing a smile on one's face. In this article I am sharing some of these moments which are funny and sometimes embarassing.. but I often laugh when I remember them.

> On the way to kharagpur, the train passes by the shore of Chilka lake. I was standing at the door, soaking in the beauty of the scene... the vast lake seeming like an ocean...the setting sun... the cool breeze blowing over my face... aaah.. seemed like heaven ! And then suddenly I feel a hand over my shoulder !! I am completely taken aback ,and to my horror I turn back only to find a eunuch, smiling wide, with a hand over my shoulder. Aaaaargh !! It sends a shiver down my spine. Before I can say or do anything, the eunuch, in a super-flirtatious tone, which wud put diehard romantics shame, says... "Aye handsome ! Hum dono saath mein kitne sexy dikh re naa" !

>Thai people are gifted with sense of humour.. or maybe it was humour only to me !!

On Bangkok streets.. I come across a shop with some excellent hats n umbrellas. My eyes are on a superb cowboy hat...I ask him the price..he say's 100 baht. Someone had said that in Bangkok you can bargain a lot..maybe to 1/4 th of the price.. 'Chalo try karke dekhte hain !!' ... "Uncle I have only 30 baht with me"....to which that guy, with the most unpolite tone i've heard.. points to the nearby shop n says.." 30 baht? go there and buy water ! ".... I am in for a rude shock...but at the same time it was funny !!

Now luk at what the tuk-tuk waala has got to say. (tuk-tuks are a local means of transprt there)..
"Whats the fare to Wat Po?"
"120 baht"
"Thats too much . I'll give you 70 baht"
"70 baht? GO WALKING "
and he zooms off, giving a most unkind look.

I am street shopping with my sis. She really liked this pink top at a store.
sis says.. "Can I get this for 60 baht?"
" Yaa.. come ...come...!! take this...."
All she hands out is a plastic cover...! How mean......
Then I ask her the price of a nice looking leather wallet at her store...
n she goes... " Shuuutaaaaaaap "
Thats it! I am not taking in any more insult ! I swear at her and storm off.

> In Kgp, wen this hall-allotment rumors were in the air, there was a debate going on whether , if given a choice, we should go to a senior hall and adopt to its culture... or stay back in MMM and start our own culture. The argument started peacefully but slowly gathered momentum and got heated up... with loudest sneers and jeers coming from Kushank , Harsh and Kakrania...
and then, out of the blue... Praveen, in funda mode, bursts out in full volume...
" HUMKO APNE SAR KE UPAR CHHAT CHAHIYE"
"HAMEIN EK BAAP KA SUPPORT CHAHIYE"
"EK ANAATH KO BHI BAAP CHAHIYE"
We all stare at him for a few seconds... n then burst out into a biggg laughter... omg !! twas so funny...cant be described :P



Well there r many more moments worth describing, including some top-class PJs by kushank, which still give me laughter doses on recollection.. but i wont make this long!
