Much ado about nothing..

Tom n Jerry Times wishes you a Very Happy [where H=Cr] New Year[:P]. At this point of time, ‘An intellectual's peek
into 2006’ is the next best thing to post about just after ‘Airtel works at 0000 hours on 1st Jan too’. This post is a desperate attempt to reach any one of these standards.

We have regular Saturday Workshops at college. They are not the best thing to happen to you apart from the days when Ashok Chakradhar steps in or when there is an advertising guy who has an abusive-compulsive disorder, and never hesitates while complimenting your arse and turning it into grass. Well today, we had a workshop on ‘developmental journalism’ and I won’t lie to you but the lady stank. Where, on the floor of our studio[the workshop area], her lecture on ‘The importance of Empathy in a journalist’s work’ was interesting, right there, in the same room was me, hanging from the ceiling updating Tom n Jerry Times at the back of my timetable with a borrowed pen. Yes, she was an eye candy.

I started out with criticizing her with respect to other inhuman boring grasses but soon realized that I was leading into commandments... Ever heard of The Holy Bible? That is how I landed to the idea of what-to-do-what-not-to-do.

[Note: I could have simply written 'The Do's and Don'ts, but i just wanted you to 'empathize' with me:-S]

What I key down here are not things you need to keep in mind while dragging yourself through the roads of wisdom but certain things you better resolve to if you do not want to be in news in the coming year. Following are more-or-more jeer at the who’s who of recent times.
