"Tag Ka Saamna" aka "Iss Tag Se Mujhe Bachao"

I have been tagged... by Choco... so here goes...


1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn on page 18 and find line 4
Under the influence of the landowner’s smile, in whose….
Salman Rushdie’s Midnight Children

2. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can & catch air?
Ok… reached out… grabbed some air… Yikes… caught something smelly… Did someone fart???

3. What is the last thing you watched on TV?
NDTV India… Salman Khan is buying an IPL team to compete with Sharukh Khan… go figure… does anyone care…

4. Without looking, guess what time it is?
1:15 am?

5. Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?
1:18 am.

6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
Sania Mirza and Somdev Burman have reached the second round in the US Open… good news… on CNN IBN

7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
A hour and a half back. Left office to come home.

8. Before you started this Q&As, what did you look at?
My blog…

9. What are you wearing?
A grey pyjama.

10. When did you last laugh?
When I answered question no. 2.

11. What is on the walls of the room you are in?
Paint.

12. Seen anything weird lately?
The mirror…

13. What do you think of this quiz?-

Yawn!

14. What is the last film you saw?

Little Zizou… on DVD… a delightful little film

15. If you became a multimillionaire overnight, what would you buy?

A book… on how to spend it overnight….

16. Tell me something about you that I dunno!

I live exactly 402 miles (647 kms) from the Palolem beach in Goa.

17. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?
Nothing… sometimes things are not great… at other times they are dreadful… but everything has a reason… the wheel of creation and destruction has to be kept in motion… consciously we create... subconsciously we destruct... the wheels turn...

18. Do you like to Dance?
I like to prance…


19. Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?

Huh! Gajgamini

20. Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?

Supandi

21. Would you ever consider living abroad?

Not forever… not for long… I care too much for my Indian Passport to exchange it for another… I have had opportunities… I choose to live here. There, in my opinion, is nothing that you can do abroad that you can’t do in India.

22. What do you want GOD to say to you when you reach the pearly gates?
Son… Here are my papers…. 1 month notice… When do I start the hand-over…


Ok... done... I pass this on to anyone unfortunate enough to have the low IQ levels required to even consider answering this... like me... of course...

If you are proudly stupid... like me... and decide to take up this tag... let me know... i promise to come over and cry while I read the rubbish written on your blog...

HA HA HA :-D

Shanu said...

Ohh u wrk in Mindspace. Dekh yeh toh maine socha bhi nahi aur tune anjane main bata bhi diya. :P

And now you have told me that you live near mindspace... mature girl... he he he :-)

Chicky said...

Chicky said...

Atrisa said...

As the Mind Meanders said...

@ Choco....

Time for an alias change... Choco to Bhadko... :-)

How can you get offended so easily... you dont know for a fact what I meant... you assume that it means the same thing as the worst interpretation of the statement that you know...

You deserve to be called Bhadko... and see - I am still getting to know a little bit more about you... :-D

Hopefully pic asli hoga (ya at least lagega... please pick a pic of a good looking girl... please) :-) :-)

As the Mind Meanders said...

@ Tongue Tip

An animal... and welcome to the blog of the beast :-)

Tongue Trip said...

Mister Beast/Animal, Do I need to? Do I???????? (outscored you on the question marks!)
As for the blog name, there are two factors behind it and guess what, I will tell you about just one, that being, I am averse, no, allergic to any synthetic odour or what you would call fragrance. Is there a scent of scentlessness? Hmm hmm

As the Mind Meanders said...

@ TT

Well... at least some good resulted from the dislike... no... allergy... you have a nice blog name....

and scent of scentlessness... If there is... the beast promises to sniff it out... on the day when time becomes timeless... and until then... I hope you smell success on your blog... keep writing mate...

Thousif Raza said...

mentalie said...

hello! i just stumbled onto your blog in the middle of a jobless day at work and i've spent a considerable number of man hours collecting my innards off the floor. raakhi and dev-iii caught me right in the solar plexus and i'm almost afraid to read on...but i think i'm addicted.

As the Mind Meanders said...

@ Mentalie

Tut Tut... I might get blocked on the company firewall for causing physical harm to employees... I do hope the innards are fine and functional...

Big welcome to my blog mate :-)

With a site like Hubpages or Squidoo there are features where other users of the
