He's everywhere

While location scouting with Babsy one hot summer afternoon for the weekend with Hari Subramanian, we ended up at Swinburne Uni, Hawthorn. The lecture theatre inside looked fine. Had all the necessary requirements. Babsy was just unsure whether the seating capacity of 220 would suffice. We stood outside when he asked me. I turned around (Emotional energy type. Can't keep still) when I literally, saw the sign. God, You really are everywhere huh?
My fellow Rishi Brothers

Rishi Kapoor and Bob, aka Manoj and Vinoj. I've known these guys for over a decade. Back when Manoj had hair :-P Almost 6 years ago, the three of us created a masterpiece: 3 characters, who thought they were better than Bhagavan and could beat Him at His own game. A story, some wild and crazy comic timing and voilĂ , 'The 3 Rishi's' were born. The story was adapted from the lesser-known best-seller "Tapovanam" and made into a live sketch that captivated our one and only audience. Quick one-liners, terrible wigs, and a dance sequence which included a wardrobe malfunction by yours truly all added to a once-in-a-lifetime performance. We've tried to do a sequel but like many blockbusters waiting to be remade, we simply haven't found the right script. Hey Mr. Spielberg, are you free after Transformers 2? Its gotta be the sheutzeun!

Good morning!

One of the first things I see everyday. Hey, it keeps me alive (to a certain point). These are part of the Terms and Conditions of my contract I signed when taking up this body. Could be worse. That Green 'n White capsule you see? Its not a capsule - its a fuckin' horse pill. That thing takes an entire glass of water to go down. Then there's the li'l yellow one I've had since I was 5. Its like a granule of dhal. Tastes NOTHING like dhal though.. The round white one, I was told that'll make me big and strong as a kid. Have you seen how tall I am?? And finally, the two white caplets. They're recent additions and supposed to help with pain. I reckon I got jibbed: they taste like sugar..

Watermelon Eating Competition

Hungry for more? From left: Uncle Hemant, Suku and Shiv.
The Family Fest started off with the Watermelon Eating Competition, first held last year. The Competition was so popular then, we thought of making it an annual event. Last year's reigning champion was Uncle Hemant. Contact him to find out how much he ate. (Hint: the guy can EAT!!) But this year, Bro. Suku managed to devour a quarter slice in a record breaking 54 seconds! Now, it might not sound like a lot of time, but bear this in mind: in Round 1, he ate a full plate of sliced watermelons along with the other contestants. These guys had very full stomachs..it was kinda sickening to watch actually. Water going up their noses, faces covered with melon bits. ;-) But hey, you can't say no to free watermelon ok?
Where's the cream?

A few weeks ago we went location scouting at Braeside Park. The Annual Sai Family Fest (fancy word for Sai Picnic) was coming up and we walked around the park planning for the Quiz that kinda didn't happen. A lot of our native flora had their scientific names alongside. But I have to ask, where's the White Cream? All we saw was brown grass..
