Note: This is another story from the Unknown-author series. Why am I coming up with such stories? I'll tell the answer soon. The Yellow shirt The baggy yellow shirt had long sleeves, four extra-large pockets trimmed in black thread and snaps up the front. It was faded from years of wear, but still in decent shape. I found it in 1963 when I was home from college on Christmas break, rummaging through bags of clothes Mom intended to give away. You're not taking that old thing, are you?" Mom said when she saw me packing the yellow…

Shane was born with a twisted body and a slow mind. At the age of 12 he was still in second grade, seemingly unable to learn. His teacher, DorisMiller, often became exasperated with him. He would squirm in his seat, drool, and make grunting noises. At other times, he spoke clearly and distinctly, as if a spot of light had penetrated the darkness of his brain. Most of the time, however, Shane just irritated his teacher.One day she called his parents and asked them to come in for a consultation. As the Davids entered the empty classroom, Doris …
I was going through my photo album.Pictures taken when I was just a one year old kid to pictures taken till last month.I have this habit of collecting pictures(hard copies) and pasting them in collage form in albums. But the last few years, with the advent of digital photographs and high-pixel storage capacity of computers, I seldom take a printed copy anymore. But the feeling of holding a hard copy printed picture in your hand is entirely different. I am sure everyone will agree with that. Now coming back to this post, I decided to start…
62% of the people who read my previous post wanted to see me exposing myself.I was really happy. 62% of a total of 82 people who attended the poll = 52 People.The remaining 38%= 30 people I was glad to know that many wanted me to strip for a social cause and do a Marilyn Manroe stunt. I took a closer look of the poll results. I was shocked to know that 40 out of the 52 people were Men. "Why me?", I was about to cry. But then, they say that Men don't cry! So I looked at the No column.22 out of the 30 people who did not want me to…
In the last 24 hours,I received a few phone calls from my friends.I received a few mails from anonymous people.I even received some text messages from random numbers. All of them had only one thing to say. "Chriz ! You are using your niece and nephew to gain popularity" . This made me to think.One person even went on to the extent of blaming me by saying," Hey nerdy guy! You are over exposing the kids for your fame"... Well! I finally took a decision. I am gonna expose myself in my next post. It is not going to be an ordi…
"War: that mad game the world so loves to play." - Jonathan Swift As a kid, I wanted to become a secret agent.I had the secret agent spirit running in my blood.When I was in Kindergarden I was in love with three girls at the same time (that included my kindergarden teacher too). I kept it as a secret and all three never came to know about the love I had for them. Once when I was in class three, my childhood nemesis "Shabir" punched my friend Rahul on his nose.That act angered me. I clenched my fists. Blood boiled inside …
The 1994 world cup soccer finals between Brazil and Italy ended in a Goal-less draw. I was watching that match in Doordarshan on TV. Just when I thought that the world cup would be shared by both Brazil and Italy, I saw the match taking a new turn with the penatly shootout. Brazil eventually won when Roberto Baggio ballooned his kick over the bar. I understood that big prizes are not for sharing and there is only one winner in most cases. Most of us would remember that kindergarden story about a monkey dividing a cake for two cats. The cats e…

I have three bottles of Beer in front of me as I type this post. I usually finish a bottle of beer in three big gulps.The lack of constant touch has made me think that I have lost my great form in Gulping Beer. Well, today is gonna be the day.

Beer bottle:One, Gulp:1 The first sip is always not so good. It is just the initial sip which wets the tongue and clears the vacuum space inside …
Remember those days? Those chat days!!! Internet-Chatting is indeed fun. I still remember those days. Days I used to chat hours together.Those were great ol' fun days.

Have you ever tried asing the age/sex and location of a complete stranger on the road? If you h…
"The bear is on a rampage. Will the Bull charge back?" This caption is a terminology used in economics. In laymen language,"When the economy is doing well, we call it the Bull ish economy and when the economy is going from good to bad, we call it Bear ish" My knowledge on economics and finance is not really good. But the very little knowledge that I have on this subject is just because of one term "SENSEX".Let me take you back down memory lane and explain how "SENSEX" changed my life. 2-…

The Tips that were offered to men in one of my earlier posts evoked mixed reactions from all the quarters in the country. Men from different parts of the country came together (no pun intended) and started an “Anti-Chriz” community. They staged a nation wide protest in their respective houses. Some of their slogans were, 1) Chriz is a womanizer 2) Chriz is a Chicken 3) Chriz behaves like Britney spears. I had a heavy heart when I came to know about these slogans. The first two slogans did not trouble me at all. The 3rd slogan however scrape…
