Life's most piquant situations!

Dear chitvish
You have now dressed up your 'prior commitments' excuse like a barbie doll! Shows how capable you are!

Dear Aishu
That was an experience you had and all of us have. The contest is for pronouncing it as a law!
Something like this:
The longer your mail attachment is, the greater are the chances of something going wrong in your PC just before the uploaded attachment is sent!
Sri

Dear Shanvy
That was a great selection, particularly the last one! The first one about the system hanging when it is your turn at the counter can be so exasperating! There is a similar one in Murphy's law. The person ahead of you in the queue will have the most complicated transaction to put through! It happens even in a clinic. The patient who goes in ahead of us will have more ailments needing attention!
Sri

Dear Rajmi
Who is the second one there knocking his head against the wall? The Sastrigal who has come to perform the pooja?
An excess of gas is reported to give a heartburn but in the case of cooking gas, it's the shortage of it that gives heartburn!
Sri

Dear Sriniketan
A piquant situation that can be worked out to our advantage! If its my mil, I'll munch the stuff longer than necessary! If we are not clear about what reply to give, we should speak with our mouth full so that no one could make out what answer we gave!
Sri

Dear Malathy
That you did not burst a vein going through such a sordid episode shows what a strong woman you are! One bus follwing your auto is bad enough but two of them would break any heart and you survived it! Sometimes when something like that happens to me, I am left wondering if the bus drivers have any understanding with the autodrivers!
I am happy that the auto that took you did not run out of fuel leaving you stranded in the middle of nowhere and there was no transport in sight for miles around. That would have been too tough even for Murphy!
Sri

Dear TDU
Two very fit cases for Murphy to canonise into laws! No other experience can be more frustrating than what the public transport can provide. Once an old man told me that a person could be judged from the manner he gave vent to his frustration in bus stops!
What you say about journals is very true particularly in Connemera Library. Even if you get the journal you want, the pages containing the article that you are looking for would be missing!
Sri

Dear Chitvish
Very true about siblings but I am not so sure about the mil and dil, an area that I am scared to venture into!
Vish's lack of appetite may be due to the fact that some strange dish is tried out on him everyday not giving enough time to get used to any particular stuff! I can imagine his plight of having to suffer agonising suspense! When we sit before the plate, we should have some idea of what to expect and in his case the suspense does not end even after the first serving. 'Saptu pathu ennannu sollungo' is the toughest poser a man can face from his wife and that too on a daily basis!
Sri

Dear Rekha
That's really tough! If you are fated to travel standing, all the trains in which you get a window seat will be invariably bound for shed!
A nice thought for Murphy!
Sri

To be frank, Cheeniya sir, the auto did visit a gas station to my dismay! And I kept cursing my fate for having had to go through such an ordeal even after a chalked out perfect plan! For the fear that others may think I am spinning a yarn or people coming to the conclusion that I was a fool not to have taken an auto much earlier, I stopped with the sighting of twin buses at a time! Now the cat is out of the bag!
