Burglar in the house?

Burglar in the house?
Its 2 AM. Im watching "Transporter". Im also online expecting someone to ping me on yahoo IM. Suddenly I can hear Khala whos is sleeping in the other room. I go and see her looking out the window, and she is shouting. Says she saw someone trying to look into the house through the window. I go out and see nobody. I wanted to somehow....find some motion behind the tree...beuond the dark...some sound of steps on dry leaves...so I can jump and pounce on him and make a lot of noise and kick him and kick him so hard that it will immobilize him....and become a hero overnight for saving Auroville flats tonight. The police will come and take the robber....the reporters will be here....and I will become a common household name in Chennai...and maybe in India itself. I would then be called to be the guest of honour in several functions in girls colleges and the girl of my dreams will come with a beautiful garland and insist on having my autograph. Theres the spark. There start the waves...then she insists I call her (girls always want the guys to call) so I do but she doesnt know that 20 of her friends are also crazy about me...and they call me...no make it ... 40.
So, we start knowing each other...and fall head over heals in love with each other....and we do the usual stuff lovers do....like having petty fights...and making up for the fights in interesting lovable ways....and wow the human mind can stretch!!
So Everyone on the street recognizes me...."Hey this is the guy we saw on TV the other day..he saved the world" " he's my Hero" and stuff...I get so used to being a hero that It comes almost natural to me...I dont notice it as such a big thing anymore...so the world thinks I am superman so whats the big deal...They havent seen nothin of my incredible persona yet...
I get that BMW and Benz I saw just now in the movie "Transporter" ....it has to be custom made....state of the art. I keep maintaining my cool image.
So I start my own security firm. I provide security...I create security. People trust my ability to thwart the robbers plans even before the robber makes it.....thats what i tell them to believe. so I get paid in billions and I get my own private jets and stuff and visit my farmhouse in the moon every wednesday and saturday. Thats twice a week. Bush keeps nagging me to take him with me on one of these visits....bugger says he wants to see if he can find some life there so he can attack.
So finally I bring peace to the world. I buy all corrupt people and order them to be not corrupt. It works. People say it was i who brought peace to the world.
So My name gets into the history books. Generations from now will scarce believe that such a man as this ever walked the earth in flesh and blood. I remember this this quote was for Gandhi but now it is for me.
But as it turned out, I couldnt find the robber-to-be. just my luck. Missed all this by a hair's breadth...

FOOD!!!

Believe me. I am not always so confused. It has taken me 10 minutes just to decide what to write. This is my first serious blog mind you. I started to write about Madurai, which I call my native place, but how it was Tirunelveli where I was born. Ah I was not going anywhere.

Then I thought writing about Anna Nagar wouldnt be that bad...thats my residence now in chennai. I will save it for another blog. Interesting subject though.

I will tell u whats most interesting in my life. FOOD.

I have a passion for food. Good food. Good Variety of food. Tasty even. I once even carried a reputation of knowing the best eateries in any given area in chennai. I would get a call on my mob - would be my old college friend - only to ask me "Macha...Im stuck in Mogappair machi...and Im so hungry...can u tell me where I can have good food...?" Well, I would charge him later for my service, but for now he can have the information. "ANCHOR" I say. With directions. A satisfied customer, my friend.

No these hotels dont pay me.

Places I really really relish having food at.

1. Parrys Attho - Attho, I am told is a malaysian food which looks like noodles, tastes more or less like noodles, but is not noodles. They mix so manby interesting things in it and serve it in a plate and a spoon - no fork - its shear heaven. If you like the "Banana trunk soup" (VAAZHA THANDU soup), - its free - you just visited Jannath.

Atho Fry is a variety of Attho - Attho made more interesting. Its a little more spicy, warmer even without the soup mix, add some BAIJO (THAT IS SOMETHING LIKE malaysian MURUKKU)...wow so mouth watering.

so repeat after me. Attho. Attho Fry. Baijo.

They also have boiled egg slit open slightly to accommodate some spicy mix. You will not stop thanking me for enlightening your world. Please dont mention it.

Have a Keerni fruit juice from the next shop after the Attho hunt. It will satisfy your thirst and make u feel light. one MUG of the juice only 10 rupees. and after uve gulped in half the mug,...they surprise you sometimes by pouring more juice they couldnt fill before.

I brought Attho into the lives of many. My cousin Sarfy, my friends Manoj, Saravanan, Vamsi, Joyas, Anbu, Mohideen,.....so many. They are crazy about attho now.

FYI...Amin and I are going to Attho on 31st August.

2. Triplicane Charminar Biryani

Thiruvallikkeni Rani illai it is Biriyani. My friends come from Tambaram to have this biryani. There used to be a hotel near ice house police station called "GALAXY" Krishna, Ashok and I would hunt there for broasted chicken - 7 mintues flat. sorry got distracted. coming back to Charminar. Yes you got to adjust standing and having ur stuff when theres too much rush. Its worth every grain that manages to enter your faculty under your nose.

3. This is for the posh people..maybe planning your date?

Greams road "Sea Shells". Go for grilled chicken and mint lime juice.

4. Hotel Crescent - Nungambakkam. The old one is still great - its open till 1 30 in the night. so people going home after Sathyam...feeling like having a smoke and wouldnt mind some food for the sake of your buddy...go to crescent. GO FOR THE COCONUT SOUFFE....yo will enjoy it.

Close to the old one, the new crescent is great. We have our get togethers there. excellent service. Dont mind the beauty queen in the next table. Lest she should start minding you. The grapes are always sour here though you know what i mean.

5. MILAN. Choolaimedu high road. when your pockets are almost empty. and stomach complaining. Go for BEEF roll /chicken ROLL. and any soup. then your regular fast food items like this fried rice / that with naan / whatever.

OK I feel satisfied after this community service. Hasnt been too bad of a first blog. stay tuned..book mark even.
....may continue and do more justice to my knowledge.
visit me again.
yours
Chicken 65.

Just Testing my first blog

Bismillah. First Blog of my life. I may even like it.
