News Wrap

The wrong message:-

“Police identified the arrested as Venkatesa Prasad (25), a native of Perambalur, who is pursuing a master's course in business administration.”

”Prasad was nabbed after the police spotted a media advertisement placed by Amir and Prasad to get clients when they shifted base from Mannady to Triplicane recently. They had released an advertisement that they are offering massage to customers, especially women.” Read full report.

So often you find the media going gaga about the smart MBA types coming up with innovative business ideas. Can one get any more innovative than this?

The young Venkatesa Prasad, bitten by the entrepreneurial bug, hit upon this brilliant idea. He decides to get paid for stuff that most of his fellow male students would be ready to pay for…massaging women.

If you read the full report (no pictures alas), you’ll find that they actually started small and became popular by work of mouth sorry, make that word of mouth.

As with any start-up they started small providing on-site services (as in customer’s premises) and then having built a brand value, tried to bring in efficiencies and increase productivity by providing own campus (offsite) services.

Did not Confucius say that if you love what you do, you do not have to work for another day?

These guys certainly had it right. A pity they are not from IIM, then the world would have recognised their genius and not unfairly categorised the venture as sleaze.

Which MBA college was it anyway?

Another Strip Show - Spare me please.
I heard somewhere that those who strip in public are essentially the ones you would rather see with clothes on. Well, the oldies in Melbourne certainly vindicate the idea.
“Angry pensioners stripped off in the heart of the Melbourne CBD today to protest against their treatment in the Federal Budget” Read full report.

PE... - the code is cracked!
“Dr Sharlip told TOI, "The definition of lifelong PE is now a form of sexual dysfunction in which ejaculation occurs within a minute of vaginal penetration, almost every time during intercourse.” Read full report.

Heh heh heh…..do I need comment? No, but I nevertheless will!

“Get a stopwatch free with a pack of condoms”.
Khandani Vaid Sri Balwan cann now actually prove that he has cured you”
“Are you ashamed of yourself, buy our special stopwatch which runs only for 60 seconds.
It can be a life changing experience. It can be a wife changing experience. It can change your experience for the rest of your life…..”

How many more tag lines can you think of?

Kissing is overrated.

Yes. Kissing is overrated. Think about it. There is just about too much brouhaha (wow….finally I got to use the word)… about kissing these days….and to think that people have been kissing for ages. What is it about kissing that gives rise to so many controversies? So I have tried to do some research (which really means I googled a bit) and have tried to understand some of the kisses that come readily to mind…:- Judas Kissing Jesus:- Legend has it that Judas, to finger Jesus to the Roman soldiers, kissed Jesus on the cheek. Its strange bordering on yickee… Either people were really weird those days or someone made this up later. I mean, think about it, if you wanted to finger out a person you would probably ...well..use your finger and point at him…or maybe if you wanted to be discreet just make that meaningful movement of your eyes….or if you really hated him…throw a stone…but kiss him…who would do that? Now moving 2 thousand years forward:-- Gere-Shetty : So much have been said and w

Anil Kapoor's 24 ....slow, boring and .... Stupid....

Well Jack Baeur need not worry. Anil Kapoor's Jai Singh cannot hold a candle to the American. Slicker than usual production values and outdoor shots do not give you 24! Have watched the first two episodes.....it is no different from Bollywood style action mixed with sentiments. ....with a little more polish. The action is laboured, the sequences sometime verge on the comical. ( he actually gets a confession from his boss by injecting him with some lethal poison which finally is revealed as glucose...  In a gun fight in a cinema hall.....playing hide and seek with shooters,  Kapoor with Anupam Kher in a forgettable cameo, walk in front of the fully lit screen..asking to be shot..and thank fully Kher does get shot!..) The dialogues are predictable and like in most Bollywood movies....too much of it.  The least they could have done was a smart script.  But maybe I am being unfair, I cannot compare a serial to a movie. Finally that is what Mr Kapoor has done, make a masala

Mamata for President

Who is the best president we have had so far? C'mon, this one should be easy.... Giani Zail Singh of course. Just for a moment think if the venerable President Z (puns galore!!) could become a cult figure at a time when even telephones were a luxury and well, for porn you had to go to a video library, what an explosion of fun we would have had if he was the President now, in the age of social networks, and photo and video editing tools!! He spawned a thousand jokes, the populace hung on to every sighting of his on our black and white news shows. Unfortunately, he isn't quite around to run for President anymore. But there is one politician who can fill in if not for anything else but for  the sheer entertainment value she provides. Since she has proved a disaster in every other aspect, we should have her in a place where she can do minimum damage. Now which is a high visibility zero impact government post, the President of India. I propose Mamata for President, Pr
