A Thanks To The Electricity Board

The 'Power Crisis' in Maharashtra has become more severe. The load-shedding time has been increased and people like my parents are rejoicing. Why? Well, because now I am spending less time on the PC and more time with my books. I am happy too. I never knew that there were so many things that you can do without electricity. I now exercise more regularly. I go out for treks and I have even learnt to sleep among mosquitoes. I will always be grateful to the MSEB for bringing me out of my shell.

The MSEB has liberated us from the clutches of electricity while they have sacrificed themselves to the 'demon'. The MSEB engineers are forcing themselves to use electricity by turning on the air conditioners and all the electrical appliances they can find at their offices while they have freed us poor souls from the misery of the use of such appliances. They have even forced the demon on the malls and multiplexes. But, as a compensation, they charge them at a lesser rate.

Even though the whole world is succumbing to electricity, I thank the MSEB for keeping us from it(though I would like it if they would not charge us extra for their efforts), and hope that they will be (un)able to continue their good work.

The View Down Here

The view down here is quite 'extra'-ordinary. Why, you may ask. Well, because everything down here is very ordinary with its share of 'extras'. What extras? That is a rather difficult question to answer because though everything here seems extra-ordinary, to be really able to separate the 'extra' seems to be a very difficult task. For example: The road is being repaired, which is ordinary. To see the road be in a very repairable condition two days after the 'repairs' are completed seems out of the ordinary at first glance.But wait! The same thing is happening everytime the road is repaired. Now that makes it ordinary, doesn't it???

I have not even started with it and it has succeded in confusing me, but I'm sure I will find a better example soon.
