Mushy Valentine's day...

Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue,

There goes Ned,
without a clue... ( pardon the irrelevant reference. I focussed more on the rhyme)

I was driving to work today, and saw huge banners all along the Pondy Bazar road ( which happens to be analogous to the Commercial Street of Bangalore).

Offers and more offers on Valentine's day. Pretty surprising in "conservative" chennai, I must say.

Speaking from a perspective of business economics, February is perhaps the only "dry month" in the Indian festivals' calendar, and owing to this fact, establishments use V- day as a golden opportunity to dispose off their goods before financial year end.

There is supposed to be a V-day special game in office too, and looks like it's going to be fun, specially trying to woo the "pretty yet shy" Birlasoftians ( NOTE: if they exist in the first place) to come and participate in the same.

Meanwhile, an interesting report that I got to hear (the autenticity is yet to be verified), claimed that certain forces in Bihar proclaimed that any couples caught romancing in public will be made to get married immediately.

So, for all those who wanted to save the expenditure on the "big fat Indian wedding", this is an opportunity, not to be missed.

Looks like Bihar and Chennai are competing with one another to be the "Cultured Cultural Capital" of India. Bah! so much so for freedom of expression.

So, guys, be prepared before you go dating, and make sure both you and your valentine have cooked up the same relationship to fool the moral police, and for those who are married, have your marriage certificates handy. Who knows? You may be asked to repeat the ordeal that you are already bugged of. [:)]

Well, Love is definitely in the air, but for the moment, I prefer Oxygen.....
