Obnoxious Cousins

Everybody's got at least one, right? And we are definitely not flattered with the fact, is it not?

There's always somebody who is loudmouthed and, by default, ONLY speaks wrong things at the wrong time. And he/she jabs your rib, puts an arm around you, brings their face right next to you, and gives a forced smile as if there is no other person as close.

Blood is the only connection. Like neighbors- lives forcefully juxtaposed. Sucks!!

It probably doesnt... I am just pissed off coz I had a bad episode with an O.C. in hte crowded public.

This blog doesnt necessarily have to be a worthless one. Here are two astoundingly good things you'll gain from reading this, which makes you... quite lucky!

1. Here's an addition to your vocabulary:
Kissing Cousins- A more or less distant relative who is familiar enough to be greeted with a kiss. In fact, another more general phrase- "Kissing Kin"
Actually, There's one movie with name "Kissing Cousins" starring Elvis the Pelvis.

2. Here is a small mathematical quiz... you're a genius if you get it right:

Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10. What is the total?

Did you get 5000? The correct answer is 4100. Check it with a calculator. I got this in an email-and I couldnt believe I got it wrong :)

How to Slide a Chicken Under the Door

The other day I was trying to find out a way to slide a chicken under a door; This conundrum proved tougher than the Da Vinci Code and no, I have not yet found out a viable, noncasualty way of doing so. However, you might be awed to hear the wealth of options that went through my head:

1. Chloroform it- pluck out the feathers- roll it flat by a rolling pin- make a roti shape- slide it through;
2. Saw off the bottom portion of the door, at least 2 feet high- tell the chicken to walk through the opening;
3. Write 'a chicken' on a piece of paper- alternatively DRAW a chicken- slide the paper through;
4. Take the chicken's beak- insert it through the slit, ignoring the wild sqawks- and just keep pushing until it emerges on the other side- you might have to clip its clawnails first though;
5. Take a razor sharp knife- slice the chicken into very thin layers- place all layers, one after the other, on a rolled out toilet paper ('spreadsheet')- tie a string on the front of the spreadsheet- pull it gently from the other side of the door.

Is anybody concerned about the gravity of the situation? Last night, I called Kantipur Television to tell them of my developments, but after hearing 'Who is this guy?' in the background, I quickly hung up. I don't know, I got too scared...
