Jingle all the Way !!!!!!!!!

Subject says its about Christmas, well it is and it is not

All started with Pradeep (My colleague) callin up at 5 in the evening to join him with ex-IR guy called Arun (the Devil) and his friends (Females included) for casual dinner on 24th.

After a bit of faltering I decide to join in and reach Pradeep's place at 7 (Cant go to Arun's place directly as we were goin to a far place and my bike wont be an appropriate suit).

The highly paid devil enjoys life in a posh and richly furnished apartment (To add to the already expensive furniture, hot, alive, and more expensive thing like Uma, the fourth and only female member, was lying besides Arun). With nobody else expected in short while, we decided to party home, with loud rock and liquor in the name of Jesus. Food, home delivered.

Post all these (liquor, rock, food and Uma's giggles), devil announces that all will sleep at his home, full utilization of three bed rooms, with possible arrangement of two more Umas. Chill running down my spine, I straight away declined to the idea. A grin flashed across devil's face, and room filled with guffaws of others.

Anyways, the night had to move on. So devil came up yet another but better idea of going to a disco. All agreed but hot furniture yawned and said that three of us guys should go and if stags are not allowed, they'll follow. So we went, three of us, for the disco.....

2 o' clock: East Coast Road (FYI: One of the coolest hangouts of Chennai, on the outskirts, parallel to east cost of sea, and hence the name) lamp posts sped by as the one time rally champion drew at 140 KMPH. Disco came, security informed that it has been closed since past 8 months. Jaws dropped, but spirits of devil rose.

Devil porposed to go to Pondichery, 160 Kms further. With twelve Rum shots down only devil could come up with this kind of idea. With one beer bottle and two Rum shots down, I could agree with it. And sober Pradeep was against it. But who cares, one who holds the steering, rules and so his foot was on the gas.

4 o' Clock: Pondichery, with not single room available in hotels, we roamed around and ended up paying 2 grands for a room I would have not paid 300. Slept at half an hour past four, and cursed everyone who called up in the morning, we woke up at 2 PM. Bath was just a formality as we had no other pair of clothes to wear and we slept in the same. I came out afresh as Pradeep commented on me singing in the bathroom. I said not to give much attention to it coz my voice is f***hole. Both of them denied. One min later and with serious face, devil said "Yeah, actually its quite close to it.".

After hasty lunch, Auroville Ashram, French colony and scenic beach, we set off to Chennai. We left Pondy by pissing on the Pondy side of bridge connecting Pondy and Chennai. Back to ECR and lots of gyan on Compressors from sober Devil, and then to Chennai.

Race with my own Shadow

On your marks.....Get set......Go

I run, hard, harder, muster up all the strength I can, burn every ounce of energy my body could produce, but its there, running along with me, at the same pace. No matter what I do, I cant get rid of my sole opponent, its right besides me. I curse myself and run harder, but that doesnt help....

But according to physics, I am goin to win this race, by the distance of 1/3x10^11 mtrs, so there it is, the reason to celebrate, but wait, answer this questions to your own self first....

First: Is there any end to this race???? With no ribbons seen, the race seems to be endless, so I am not winning at all, no matter how hard I run. Its just impossible to get rid of him. Coz it is goin to be with me all the time, shall hide in the momentory darkness, but is gonna reappear as soon as there is a hint of light, so I accept it, and just wail in pain..

Secont: Whom do you symbolize your shadow with??? What are you running from??? i answer to myself.
