Grey

I know what it takes to be sad when you are supposed to be happy .
I know,
They happen to come together
Neither one after the other ,nor one before,
Negating  the effects ,
It colors me ,neutral .
I wish, I knew ,
What it takes to be happy when you are supposed to be sad .

Nice feeling it is ,not sure how long will it last .However this has lead  me to proudly don the swimwear and jump in the pool.But err......just jumping won't help , i cannot swim.
Archimedes before patenting buoyancy  just forget to evaluate it with mass of ma kind.

PS1 : The DKOM dev meet was mostly  tiny-little-brain-bombarded with information-overload . Information mostly being industry buzz words than actual core stuff.
As one is already working on cloud computing , nothing impressed me more than the speaker himself ;).
Fida on Guru.
One was soooo checking him out .
He soooo noticed one checking him out .
That's it , end of the story ! turns out he is sooooo married ,ouch.
Got  safely registered  in fan , admirer category.

PS2 : IIM B Prof. Dr Y.L.R Murthy's speech made  my day1
Swarathma  the Indian band made my day2 .I think this was one of their first successful "corporate" shows which sucks otherwise.

They hit the right nerve of the audience with contemporary rock bhajan kind of music garnished with humorous  bhojpuri comments , namma kannad songs , Telugu  sprints & Kabir dohe in  DJ style  .
It had  kailash kher raw touch.

An Evening In Palace

Bangalore Palace -replica of Windsor Castle, England


Wikipedia says:


It was built by Rev. Garrett. The construction of the palace was started in 1862 and completed in 1944. In 1884, it was bought by the Maharaja of Mysore, Chamaraja Wodeya.Now owned by the current scion of the Mysore royal family, Srikanta Datta Narsimharaja Wadiyar. The sprawling grounds surrounding the palace are used for holding public events including music concerts.

6.  The King and Queen arenas are the most recherché.
7 .The exotic accessories -from Chinese wall papers to Italian crockery set , lavish wooden do –all fall in  “imported” category or are gifted by foreign royal acquaintances.
