The Story of Kanan and CD Player...

Somehow the CD player of my car is not liking Kanan, or may be vice versa ;). Well, the story goes like this. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, Kanan and I go together around 8.30 in the morning. I drop her to the school and then goto my work place from there.

Now, as soon as Kanan sits in my car for whatever reason the CD player would just crash and would stop playing the CD. The most wierd thing is when I leave from home the music is already on, she comes in, sits and boom. It crashes. It's not like that it has happened once, so far it's now 6 times. I know it has to be a coincidence, but it's still inexplicable. It's hard to believe such a thing, both of us look at each other in the morning and know what's going to happen next, and so confident that it just won't work and we'll have to listen to that pakau Nicholas Phicolas on 98.5 FM. What say Kanan....?

To our surprise, she is the only one with who this is occuring. I guess both of us will give few more chances to the player, right Kanan ?

So far I believed, I was always a so called 'rational' and 'educated' and what not..... Now I can't agree to myself. I've to be superstitious and accept to live in the world with no music. :)

Superstitiously Hygienic!!!

This is about one of the employees at my work place and his hygiene consciousness. I find him very wierd though. The story goes like this, he comes to the rest room, would never use the standing urinal, instead would always pee in the shit-pot. That's still okay, then he would take at least 2 paper napkins from there, before washing hands, yes even before washing hands.

Then will open the water tap making sure that his hand never comes in direct contact with the tap. After washing the hands he'll turn off the tap with papers only, would never touch the tap with naked hands, and then would not touch any thing directly on his way back to the office, he'll still be carrying those paper tissues with him. This things include the knob of the restroom and the knob of the main door of our office. Once he enters the office then and only then he'll throw the napkins in the trash can there.

What a wierdo! I wonder how people can be so superstitiously hygiene conscious. I think such kind of people should be locked in some public 'Sauchalaya' in India for 24 hours ;), and then should be asked to drink milk like Saif Ali Khan in the movie Salaam Namaste....!
