Aha...! moment


From past 6 months, may be more, there was a mental picture of a girl whom I know but cant recall how or from where I know her. Short, dark complexion, slightly curly hair, long tooth may be Tamil or Telugu girl. I faintly recall that we were in some kind of school together. Almost, everyday I quiz myself and cross-off all the possible places I would have met her.

I think it would have happened to many of us... Believe me its so frustrating and mentally tiring.

Today while I was taking a bath in the morning, I connected the dots. She was from Alliance Franciase, Hyderabad, where I took french classes for a brief period of time in 1999.

Boy ! imagine the biological part of it... a small electrical signal with my query would have ran pillar to post all through out my brain... short term memory cells, long term memory cells... every day one task... who is she... atlast like a file in a typical government office one memory cell would have pulled it out and said... I thought its useless piece of information... anyways take it and make your boss happy... ;)

I will shorty scan that picture and post it here. << at-last I scanned the picture.. girl i was mentioning is circled.... and I was amazed to see full hair on my head...:P... this picture was taken on 24th April 1999.
Note: For Hyderabad residents this is when Alliance Francaise was beneath Birla science museum. Background of the picture is much changed now.

I felt this was funny...

A gynecologist had become fed up with malpractice insurance and HMO paperwork, and was burned out.

Hoping to try another career where skillful hands would be beneficial; he decided to become a mechanic.

He went to the local technical college, signed up for evening classes, attended diligently, and learned all he could.

When the time of the practical exam approached, the gynecologist prepared carefully for weeks, and completed the exam with tremendous skill.

When the results came back, he was surprised to find that he had obtained a score of 150%. Fearing an error, he called the instructor, saying, “I don’t want to appear ungrateful for such an outstanding result, but I wonder if there is an error in the grade.

“The instructor said, “During the exam, you took the engine apart perfectly, which was worth 50% of the total mark.

You put the engine back together again perfectly, which is also worth 50% of the mark.”

After a pause, the instructor added, “I gave you an extra 50% because you did it all through the muffler, which I’ve never seen done in my entire career.”
