Every now and then "open friend requests" on social-networking sites throw up pearls.
Here is one i read a few minutes ago...
"hello dear"..... i m goldy... ,,,i m doing my study............. i m only 19 yr... i want to make friends? but i like good friends bcoz i like to chat aur talk . wanna a nice friend then add me as a friend. i think you can add me as a friend . so plz join me friend.......... i m waiting for your friend request.
some comments...
- He's "doing" his study...??! What a thing to hump..! Your study..!
- This chap quite certainly wants to make friends. Check out the number of occurrences of the word.
- And then he has a glorious moment of self-doubt.. "i want to make friends?" ??!!!
- What does "aur" mean in the above context?
Is it "or" in Hindi? If yes it doesn't make sense.
If its "and" in Hindi? well that doesn't make sense either.

My name is...
All of us learn to write in the second grade. Most of us go on to greater things.
-Bobby Knight
Like many of you, if there is one person in my life whom i have never really understood, its myself. Dont run scared now... This blog wont try to do that. But even in that incomprehendible City-market style madness one thing i have learnt to live with is that the few pounds of gray matter behind my eyes is well... restless.
And the last year has added the proverbial aviation fuel to fire. Sample this.
I ve gone from trekking in the Himalayas to getting almost bedridden by back ache. From taking pictures with borrowed snapshots to having my very own Nikon. From being sent to New York on training to being given the pink slip - Thanks to the Yankees not paying their mortgages. Come on now..!! Don't we all blame Uncle Sam for (almost..?!)all our problems. That's MY contribution.
So there's a sample of the aviation-fuel-grade-stuff i have found myself in.
All those events running amok in that restless brain. I finally decided i ll put some on paper(yeah it comes in a "Notepad"). Now to make this kichiDi of ideas edible i have come up with this elaborate scheme of things. The humble idea is to have a folder as you see in FIG 1. AWESOME IDEA.This folder has a bunch of empty text files with the names of all the most boring to the most "super!! maga" ideas. I am gonna write em when the dust settles in my head(for a while) and roll em out when i can!
As far as the name of the blog goes, I am the keeper of the deep, fathomless, really meaningful meaning it holds.
YOU guess why i named it that way. Whoever gets the best answer will have found the true meaning. psst psst... please come up with a deep, fathomless, really meaningful answer... FAST!
