"Why the hell do I?"...

An interesting post I found on GurmatBibek.com, written by Bhai Kulbir Singh jee (Toronto)...



Bernard Shaw used to tell a story about his father, whom he was delighted to watch shaving everyday. One day the five year old Shaw looked up and asked the old man "Daddy, why do you shave?"

The father looked at his small son for a full minute and then threw the razor out of the window, saying, "Why the hell do I?" He never did again.

Sunday Tribune, dated 6th December, 1970 (Editorial)

Bernard Shaw too maintained full beard all his life and did not shave. Hopefully, our misled brothers and sisters who still cut their hair and shave would be as sensible as Shaw's father.

This might just give those all who are cutting their beards and/or clear their heads(pun intended) a thing to think about!!

Think again before doing it again!!

I told him, I wanted to go too. He arranged for an interview for me in Delhi with a member of AIESEC. The interview was good. They were OK with me being a part of AIESEC. Then they told me the fees part of it. Fees to go for Internship. I mean I expected that I would have to go on my own, living expenses even might have been my own. But for th...

Platform Ticket at Old Delhi Railway Station

Image
Image via Wikipedia I thought it was something new. I hadn't seen anything of the sorts happen before, not that I went for it regularly or not even rarely if you may. But when I did, I never thought something like this would happen. Today I went to meet a friend who was going to join a company in Ahmedabad -  Mudra Port - at  Old Delhi Railway Station . The plan to meet him was an impromptu plan, as was his' to report & join the offices as soon as possible. He was already inside the station, waiting for his train sitting in the 'Upper Class Waiting Room' on  3rd Floor . I went to the station, knowing all well that I would have to buy a platform ticket to gain an entry & meet him, at least to keep the process completely legal ;) I went in search of a Platform Ticket Counter to many windows, and asked people enqueued there to know if the ticket would be available there. A few directed me to places (e.g.. around the next corner) where there seemed to be no...
