Just saved $100

A totally stupid line of thinking goes here..

I was bang-ho-malibu-rum upon going to the Metallica concert in SLC on 22nd.
So, i just sit down and figure out how much it would take/cost.

The tickets are priced at $75.
Up and down travel = $ 20 ( Even if i hitched a drive with Shounak- he wud ask for sharing gas).
The necessary beers to get high prior to the concert = 8 = $6.

So, even if u look at it from the most economical point of view, it wud take a minimum 100 bucks.

And since i dun have $100 to blow away in my account right now, i kinda drop the whole idea off.

What gives me solcae is this new line o thinking. I just saved 100 bucks.

What a pity: Had i made plans to attend a Eminem concert priced at $100 in Detroit or something for which travel + lodgings+ food would take another $500, i could have saved $600 by dropping the whole idea away.

So, any of you guys wanna save some money, plan a extravaganza and then drop it.

P.S : Taking this a lil far to make it into an Ad for Mastercard:

Metallica concert = $75.
Beer and travel = $ 25

The satisfaction of having saved a 100 bucks by dropping the whole idea : Priceless.

There are some things that money can't buy. For everything else, there's MASTERCARD

How crazier can ya get, hey?

Right and wrong places....

So, like this yesterday, i catch up with Paul on the bus on the way back home..
After the usual " What's ups?" and " Howzzit goings?", Paul like draws close to me and says something. ( This scares me first. because the grapewine has it that Paul is gay, and although aware of it, i dint know for real..And i hav no intention of finding out for real by myself. Its his life man, and he is just a good friend- as long as he doesnt make advances and all).

SO, coming back....

Paul: Yesterday, i realized by myself what they mean by saying " You were in the wrong place in the right time".

This scares me rightaway, and i thot " Ah, man...so this guy is into drugs, and yesterday, he was just lucky not to be fooling ard. when the cops came busting. I hav to help him kick it off". - That was my thot, random thot, the moment he said those words, these very thots occured to me. Tryin to wrtite novels does that to be people.

I check myself in the nick of time when i was abt to ask " Did the cops bust you ?" and substitued that with a polite, dignified " What happened?" . I was darn proud of it, i really was.

Paul: Dont tell it to anyone. But yesterday, in the NFS building, i had this sudden, intense urge to discharge immediately and i without reading the signs i walked into the ladies restroom.

Me: Wow...Cool! So, what happened. Anybody home?

Paul: No man. I was darn lucky. There wasnt nobody in there. I dint realize it first. Then there were all those sanitary diaper dispensers with a coin slot for 25 c all over the place. I just checked to make sure i was unseen, prayed nobody would watch me coming out and burst off.

I was like " What does he mean by burst off? Does he intend the pun? "

Paul: When i walked out, thats when i realized ' I was in the wrong place in the right time'.

Me: Paul..Man. I would say you were at the 'Right place inthe wrong time'.

Paul: Are you crazy? I wuda been finished if smebody had seen and reported.

I dont like reality, and this logic, i definitely dint like. It seemed so reality.

Me: Hey, ok, so tell me, did you do it or not? (Read - did you take a leak at the ladies restroom?)

I was damn suave and clever at changin the topic and i asked this in a very clever way...No way you can question what the qusetion's about, but straying and flirting dangerously with the limits of pretended innocence...like that guy asks the old lady in "Titanic"...That suave..Suave as hell.

Paul: No man. I just barge out. I just had to get out of there, you know what i'm saying...

Me: Ah..man. If you had just checke and read the signs, you wudnt have been thro the trauma man, and you cuda hit off faster.

While i was thinking " That confirms it. he is gay. He is sure gay!"

Russell Peters..

Was watching Russell Peters stand up comedy last night.
He is an ABCD and he is very good.

So, like this show gets intresting and he talks a jib at everyone he cud think abt.
Immigrant indians/chinks/mexicans/blacks/whites..the whole lot.

The best part was when he addressed the ladies to take a few chances, explore and sleep ard a little, to overlook color of skin/nativity issues and just go sleep if you want to.
Like he says" India and China are the two largest populations in the world, and there is no space for more of them in their own country. So, all you other guys, you may hide now, but sooner or later, we are gonna hunt you down and hump you".

So " I say we take it in the right spirit and start humping each other now. Kinda prepare for the eventual mass-humpin".

There's this Spanish gal im eyein . Should i show the show to her?..
