70 kmph- Butterfly Effect Part III



22 Aug 2008,Friday 12°55'1"N 80°13'50"E 3.50 pm


70...60..50..40..30..20..crashhhhhhhhhhhhhh..a minor accident.veh no : TN-07 P 5312...the victim skidded off the road by braking on the rubble and sand that collected on the road due to rain the prev day, but he escaped with second degree burns in his right calf which was tangled between the brake lever and engine.Luckily it was near the T shop and it happened @ the shoulders of the OMR road . Within seconds there were people to help him out and took him to the company med centre...

The guy who skidded was none other than me. I started off 3.45 to reach office @ 4 pm. It was a bit unusual time, i generally used to go around 5 pm to office. It was a coincidence that i thought i wud complete this blog after my work on friday n jus uploaded the picture Bfore that this had happened. It was on the card always..the road being rough exactly near the entrance and 2 days back, @ the same spot there was head on collision of two busss. Statistics proved here , it was an accident zone...u wont believe months ago i saw a dead man 10 metres away from the same spot being hit by a milk van around 2 am in the morning. It was a terrific xperience that night.I cudnt go up to my desk that night n continue with my coding...

how is it to be in a battle...

how is it to be in a 'battle' January 7th 1959, Large throngs of people gather to cheer the victory march of Fidel and Che on the 'streets' of Havana , capital of Cuba commemorating the victory of their great "REVOLUTION".. the same day after 50 years..the 53000 employees of a numero 4 SW Giant of India shocked from the "REVELATION" of their ex-boss about the balance sheet.. the 'streets' of BSE and the NSE seemed so narrow for the investors...with questions against India Inc's survival of the fittest.. the two events making different effects though... One against a capitalist regime which paved way for the success of socialism and the other a clear struggle of an one man army against growing globalization pressures the 'truth' ....yet to be unfolded.... How does it feel as an employee of the great organization,which was on the media months ago for its excellence in service and governance and now bei...
