autos , walking at night

I wish there was a good cheap service of SMS, GSM at Rs 500 a month for autos.
 
especially wish the young girls of Vasant Nagar and all over who live in PGs etc or other wise need to travel in alternate transport in the night would get 4-5 auto guys phone nos, use them regularly and make them come to their door step for pick ups.
 
Hate when the young uns are out in their finery, wearing skirts and all chaps look at them like they some aliens that you need to catch and mount like a dog. @%#^@%#@ nee-ash-locks

save the Cubbon Park

Save the Cubbon Park Bangalore!



wikipedia Cubbon Park



they (govt, their friends) are trying to encroach on Bangalore's lung space - the Cubbon Park. i love that place, flowers, grass, trees, water, in the middle of the city 3 km away from my house.



and makes me more sad that i cannot do much besides blog about it, write an email, and hope, when i do go and meet the govt chaps they try to talk to you in Kannada. when u answer back in the 10 words you know they act like you do not belong there. or that they know what they are doing, and to let them get on with it. no politician waste time with educated people cause we hardly vote.



so i joined the professional's party of India but it looks more like a interest group - 2 people showed up for the meeting

Quoting :pallavi ramesh DJ 94.3 FM Blr

A quote from pallaviramesh  


pallavi ramesh DJ 94.3 FM Blr www.pallaviramesh.com

U know wat there a question i asked on the other forums...do women really listen..according to me they hardly listen..yeah yeah im saying that on personal experience....i only listen if i want to..i mean i listen to people only whom i want to listen to...ma friend says this:Its just a myth like the white elephant, women do listen, but the problem is they talk more which gives them less time to listen. So they talk more and hence listen less ;) ... http://www.pallaviramesh.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&Itemid=3

windsor manor junction sankey road, pedestrian crossing

after the traffic signals were removed a year back at Windsor manor junction sankey road,pedestrian nightmare
 
police man there should stop traffic coming from Guutahalli towards Windsor Manor every 4-5 minutes for 30 seconds so we can cross. even at 3pm etc its busy. after 5 pm very busy. else put lights back to stop traffic before they enter the circle area for 30 seconds every 4-5 minutes.
So we can cross even when police 'busy'. I asked a police man to help me cross he said he has to see other traffic - then he went back to taking to the garderner who was tending the plants in the middle traffic Island!
 
Or are we going to wait till some people get hit by speeding vehecles OR some big shot has to cross the road on the way to one of the 5 star hotels?

bad end - Silver Star hotel, Palolem, Goa

1 star rooms and good food on the beach. Went off season (22nd July 2009 to 23rd) staff was helpful. Plain room - tv, western style loo. No soap, toilet paper, or hot water (but you can get most essentials at the shops 400 meters away). Owned by two brothers one of who I spoke to and seemed quite friendly.
 
Enjoyed my stay except - I was moving in to the Lalit Intertcontinental with my wife but wanted some clothes laundered. They agreed to clean them. When I checked out I did not ask for help and no one came forward to help with my 3 bags.
 
Realized the next day that I had the room key so I went immediately and dropped it off. All the staff was around the TV - slow days.
 
When I came back for my clothes on the 25th the other brother was there was he was not very nice. Said I owe him a days rent cause I had the room keys! I told him walking away with room keys is a common problem - that is why some star hotels have the paper or electronic keys now that can be easily replaced in house at a low cost.
 
He said how are they to know if I checked out or took the key along cause I meant to come back!
 
I reminded him : when I checked out I informed the staff that I was checking out, settled my bill and then left.
 
Then he started calling me a beggar and other obscenities, when I told him to shut up and cussed him one of his staff flew at me and had to be stopped by another.
 
Sad experience - will make me more wary of these low budget places in the future.

violence and fear in Abshot layout

Kumar the iron person refuses to do clothes of one of the houces as its late (930pm) on the 14th of July 2009.
 
The person Babu who had asked him to do that comes back at 11 30pm and wrecks his cart. Damages Rs3,500/-
 
Now I told him to go to the cops, the man who lives there said that too.
 
But then Babu came and threathened hi, after admiting that he did break the cart as he was pissed of with his "friend" Kumar who he had helped many times in the past! I told Kumar I will go with him the cops, and he can call me when he wants to enter the layout. but hes too scared.
 
Lets see what happens ...
