Dudes and TV

Ajay came along this morning. Was meeting him after about 6 months, how time flies. He has mellowed down after marriage .... in a pleasant way.

Caught up about a lot of things .... Deepanjan's leaving for UK, his own plans for the future and of course, the good old days at Shivam. It's strange how all past memories acquire a rosy tinge regardless of how the prevailing situation at that time might actually have been.

Gunakar has shifted base to Bangalore and with Arni set to arrive back from LA sometime in the 3rd week of this month, it looks like it's gonna be a partial Shivam old boys' reunion pretty soon.

On an aside, there's been a spate of emergency oral contraceptive ads on TV over the last 6 months. Was watching an ad for Parle's shitty lemon drink 'LMN' today. It goes by the tagline 'emergency lemon refresher' and when the dude doing the voiceover mentioned the word 'emergency', I was sure the next word to be mentioned would be contraceptive. It was only when he said lemon, that I looked up from the laptop & realized that it wasn't another 72 hour contraceptive being advertised. That's how pervasive their ads have been!
