Coming round the corner when the TV was streaming the aftermath of the Mumbai terror plot and the political "halla-gulla", there were more and more calling for the Jesus Meetings around the world. And our folks are like the next generation Socrates, sweating and toiling over hours of discussions. None had been idle except for the stove and rest of the assortments in the kitchen. The TV, the Laptop, even our new member too was being tossed around(a football), above all the voices echoing in the room.
What was the hard talk about?-- "Recession assessment of global economy and consequent consequences."
That was a very heavy thread that we were handling all by ourselves. Blame all but one, our bad luck! As per our expert findings "Bad luck" is the first greatest natural calamity that can happen to anyone. However the outer circle of the bad luck slowly drifted to a smaller radius with newer circles of talk. The big question was who all are the ultimate sufferer of this mayhem?-- Industries, Banks or us. Beggers!, someone said. "I have seen them working harder on their gestures, shaking more and making more difficult faces, it seems; forget the rich even the auto drivers too becoming stringent about donations." Laughs all, then suddenly into silence. Man! we should not laugh we are in a far better situation, we do not have the rights to laugh at them. The IIM grads, they have been deprived from Investment banking jobs. Yes, but still they will have better options too. Not entirely wrong, infact these elites are still no where near the red line."What is this? Guys try to think out of the can, the common man, common man."(trifling Tom), "Beggars again or minority messiah Obama?"(humorous Harry) He had a point, it is difficult to determine the common man into categories of classes and sub classes. Actually both the points were eventual, yet we were in a dilemma of drawing lines to join them. Resulting into more smoke and ash and frowns and decibel rise. No leaf left unturn, talked from soup to nuts. But (determined)Dick serves the dessert.
"Girl friends!!!" he yelled, still trying hard to spin the football like a globe (feeling of being God).
We are not sure of why or how it came to his mind, but there is a point too. LoL!........ have they fallen from Temptations to Lacto King's and from Coffee Cafes to Iddli Stations and from weekend parties to watching TV at home. What happens to the phone, has it become a miss call device. Dude! what a close to such a difficult chapter. Or may be everything is right in place as it has to be, struggle and strife is always a part of life. Wish you "good luck, happy living"!

You got the points right, the outcome of the carnage in Mumbai was nothing more then avenues for the channels to cover more then just ghosts, and kids in borewell, something spicer then that, as for the politicians a fresh start at the blame game. And for the candle makers a hike in sales...... Nothing much can comeout other than a new incident that can keep the public interested for some more days like a cricket series for instence.
thanks for the comment!........discussion and debate dats all people do, we do.
