babureddy · 27th June 2008, 10:38

now, seems like this thread was started to make it a mega thread, cause most of the team-bhpians will now say, that its something like they have become / behave now a days or from the day they have become a member here.
Hopefully my manager will not raise this issue in review meeting, since this is one window that is open always though i don't post much

KB: both are fine, fine.
SL: Any news of their dad?
KB (irritated) : No, I'll announce it at the panchayat when he's back ok. Just gimme a break and do your job, meddling grocer.
SL: (laughs) OK OK .
KB is standing atop her satellite dish on her jhopdi's plush terrace looking down at the crowd below.

Crowd: Where's Hos and Powa's Dad????

It's a stormy night, wind blowing, cocks crowing, rivers over-flowing.

Hush is sitting on a chair in front of the crowd, There's a 20 inch Sony LCD on a table in front of him. He types something franctically and a mystical blue light emnates from the Sony and spreads miles over the sky.

The whole village leave their multi-storeyed chawls, their high-rise malls and gather at the Sony staring astonishingly thru their eye*****.

The screen says : TBHP -> HosPowa ka Baap!

TBHP: The Baap of HorsePower

carzy, could you please translate that for me, I don't want to miss this one. thanks

SL: KantaBen, aaj kya purchase karna hai? = Kantaben, what do you want to buy today?
KB hands over the grocery list to him.
SL: Ok, the usual. Beta Hos kaisa hai aur chotta Powa? = how are Hos and Powa doing?
KB: both are fine, fine.
SL: Any news of their dad?
KB (irritated) : No, I'll announce it at the panchayat when he's back ok. Just gimme a break and do your job, meddling grocer.

4. keep referring to 4 year old dusty, bug-eaten car mags that you have never touched all these years to find out how many metres less the ferrari took than the porsche to get to 160 kmph. (then u feel happy that you didnt listen to your mom to remove all that extra 'raddi' from the house.)

5. Your parents tell you that if you had taken to ur studies with as much interest you look at these mags, you would be running a car company yourself.

6. Your girl friend sulks coz she finds you spending more time in front of a plain grey window with chaps who only talk abt 'that thingamummyjig turbo charger' than with her.

7. Your home page has been changed from hotbabes.com to t-bhp.com.

8. You plan to move your house, family, pets to bombay everytime a t-bhp meet is announced here.

9. You feel happy to see numbers ticking against your topic.

10. You spend time at work to come up with a stupid topic like this one.

1) Yes.

2) No, within 2 minutes.

3) Yes.

4) My magazines ( 500+ in number ) are not bug eaten, I have protected them at the cost of scolding from parents.

5) My parents tell me that my carrear is in ruins because of cars.

6) No girl friend.

7) Yes.

8) I would love to be in meet, but then I cant as I am not yet upto other's standards.

9) Numbers ticking at any topic is what excites me.

10) This is not a stupid topic. I logged on and posted despite exams ( that is the work I am suppossed to do ).
