Fate is cruel. Let me elucidate…
Yesterday:
I booked my Bangalore- Trivandrum ticket. While doing this I found out that on some days Deccan tickets were going for 9K while the Kingfisher ones were 6K. I never thought i would live to see that day.
Today:
I was searching for information on the Sampras-Federer: Clash of the Times matchup when i chanced upon this:
Yes. Seputura is playing in India and if you look closely, it says Saturday 03rd Nov, Bangalore. Now guess when i booked my Trivandrum ticket for – 02nd Nov.
Ah well, Sepultura is playing at the Palace Grounds and while you go buy the tickets online at the ticktpro site, i’ll go ratamahatta myself 😦
well … ur trip home better be good 😛

I know…those Deccan rates are weird.. in fact all rates are weird…
The other day I booked tickets to Delhi only to realise much later that I was flying Jet Airways.
Now you’d ask how could I book a flight without knowing what airline it is, well that’s a different issue, I can do a lot of weird things, but in my defense, I booked via Yatra.com and the rates they gave me was same as Spice Jet or other ‘No frills’ fare.. My round trip cost came to a little less than 8K. Now isn’t that strange.. I thought Jet airways one way trip cost comes around 7-8K

Lucky fella, aren’t you? We call it PCP. Papi chellunnadam pathalam.
You can have a career in betting. If you bet on a horse, it’s sure to lose. But if you decide NOT to bet on a particular horse… You get the idea. You can make your friends rich, and then live off them.

Khushboo, 😦 i was indeed wallowing in pity!
Abbulu, i am of course going to see Sepultura! living out my metalerialistic passions 😉
Jasmine, i am sure it was 6K for only one way. I was shocked and thats why i mentioned it here… must have seen an outlier though.
Tys, hihi.. i cancelled the ticket and booked train tickets for another day instead! train is metal too eh 😀
Ziah, on the contrary i’ve been rather lucky for the most part of this year! Thanks for sympathizing though.
Sam, Woohoo!! YaY!! You watched? Maybe you were the good charm 🙂

Sepultura growls too much to my liking actually. But then, they are better than Lamb of God anyday.
What about RHCP coming to Bangalore and all that?

Sam, game! i know this is very contentious but i would call F1 a sport 🙂
Spunky, yea.. but then i don’t get any of the lyrics so growling or no growling is almost the same. RHCP? fervent googling resulted in dissapointment 😦
