		<description>Hotel Ganga is gone long
A new Monda&#039;s come along
You won&#039;t recognize this place
Secunderabad has kept apace
With the ubiquitous Cyberabad song!

&lt;strong&gt;Me:
Oh is Hotel Ganga gone long??
And a new Monda has come along!!?
But where were you Gulshan
You were sorely missed, oh man!
I know this is a poor limerick gone all wrong!! :P :P :P &lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>I am completely and totally  impressed
by your action of treating a snake as guest
though the fear for these reptiles you have professed
it takes a great deal of courage not to be stressed.
&lt;strong&gt;
Me:
I am glad I was able to impress
By my action of treating the snake as a guest
But I have to confess the truth of what I profess
Reptiles do give me a lot of stress.
&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

amazing the connections one finds here on the blogosphere :) 


the wood rose (in Mhow) the bungalows oh yes! I remember the tall tall ceilings and the thick stone walls..
nostalgia sheer nostalgia Shail :)
reading all this ....



&lt;em&gt;taking after none other than his famous (notorious??) mother who would bring the roof down if a lizard crossed her path. &lt;/em&gt;
:lol:

ROFL:@Saanp saab :D

:lol:
poor thing..err the fella not the snake ;)


what a story Shail!!
life in the forces is full of them isnt it? :D


reminds me of another time in LAdakh when a JCO had hurried to comply with dad&#039;s rant.. :D
dad had said in anger &lt;em&gt; *Usko (JCO X) ko goli se udaa doonga* &lt;/em&gt;

off went the JCO to the armoury to get out the required gun :D

On being asked by the sentry on duty  why he was doing so and whether he had permission for it..he promptly said &lt;em&gt;AP SIngh saab ne bola hai usko (JCO X) goli se udaana hai &lt;/em&gt;

:D


&lt;strong&gt;Me: Another connection, yes!! :) I remember reading somewhere about your connection to the army. Indeed life in the forces is full of such stories. Lol @JCO going to get gun! :))))) &lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Hey , It was an enjoyable read , Do write more , Your talent is very effervescent (dont know if it means anything negative but I dont mean to say :) ) I mean to say its nice .. good !!

&lt;strong&gt;Me: Of course &#039;effervescent&#039; doesn&#039;t denote anything negative. &#039;Full of joy, unrestrained high spirits, enthusiastic, vivacious&#039; are some of its meanings. I don&#039;t know if it can be used to describe talent though. Anyway, thanks for the appreciation. :)&lt;/strong&gt;

		<description>Interesting encounter... 

We had a big dark brown snake near our house for a long time and we used to spot it many times but it was quite harmless... really !


&lt;strong&gt;Me: Most of them are. Even the poisonous ones move away when they hear humans. :)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>
