A lesson learnt...
I have learnt that...
...few people know about or appreciate the wisdom of Joseph Heller. And therefore when one posts an excerpt from his most celebrated book, with the intent of drawing parallels with it, one finds no takers and defnitely no comments.
On the other hand, when one writes about two loony but lovable young dudes trying to make it big for themselves in this big bad city of dreams, it appeals to all and sundry, and all kinds of feedback pours in.
Feedback when its good, feels good and one feels encouraged to continue. Since most of the feedback about R&D has been positive, I feel encouraged too to write more about them.
Therefore, I've decided to write more about them. But its 1.40 in the night right now and i really am very sleepy, so won't do that now.
Only one precious bit that i just have to mention.
You may find it wierd, but it's about their dental health. (Don't ask me why in the middle of the night must i write about this... it's just one of those things you have to do)..
So.. I was saying...
R has rotten and hollow molars, and is in serious and dire need of some major root canal treatment.
However he just refuses to visit a dentist for the following three reasons:
1. Doctors in Mumbai don't (apparently) administer local anesthesia, and since R is terrified of the sight of blood, he can't get himself to go ahead.
2. He truly cannot bear the pain - even if there is no blood
3. He feels he has no time. He maintains that he'll get it done in Goa (that's where he hails from)
sometime..but then when he's there he's too busy not doing anything to actually do something as tedious as visiting a dentist.
So basically he's in bad shape. And quite honestly i have little sympathy for him (just for his reason #1).
As for D...well I don't think he has such major dental issues, but I've noticed he's got an incorrigible sweet tooth and he's a total sucker for candy. In the morning, after lunch, at tea time, post dinner...that's all he can think about. It's a wonder he's not diabetic by now. Seriously, he's pretty nuts about candy for a grown up man of 25 yrs... :)
Though to be honest I have not seen him with any real candy lately... apparently he's being denied the sweet stuff. But anyone who knows him knows that its not gonna last too long. He just can't keep away from it :) Its not for nothing that we call him candyman :)
Anyway... more about their strange habits tomorrow.
Keep the feedback pouring in.
Sweet smiles always

Hmm... R is a goan... that shd be fun ;)
Delhi boy
Delhi boy,
You are not straight, are you?
And u know what u've done, you've probably put R off delhi forever and ever!! Not that he was anywa ever planning to go there!
I hope I am still welcome to Goa... 'R' are u listening
Go on, go on Delhi Boy,
Maybe YOU will be able to elicit a comment out of the elusive R
Wonder if anyone's noticed that while the D's been writing in, the R man is yet to make an appearance at my blog
:)
LOL.... wats going on here??
R is like aishwarya rai!! hehehehe... sis.. u know wat i m talkin bout... don u?!
Certain Clarifications -
1. D is NOT 25.
2. D cannot be seen with 'any candy'. He is ferociously brand loyal. He is seen with 'his candy' or like of late - 'no candy'
3. D is NOT 25
Regards,
D, 26
I don like candies! :-s
or is 'R' too busy doing nothing (as mentioned in the blog) to comment on this blog.
'r' is raped with a capital R. the Goan man has actually spent two late nights in office a row!
B, you will like the Candy I prefer, once you experience the...I am looking for a word...can't say product...'it' is more apt!
Quoting d
the Goan man has actually spent two late nights in office a row!
