How to catch/kill a Lion SP ishtyle ...

         Now you guys must have read/spammed this joke a zillion number of times, but then once again adding a bit of flavor (chat-pata masala) to this cliched one.. SP ishtyle !!

How to Catch/Kill a Lion

Newton's Method: Let, the lion catch you. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Implies you caught lion.
Einstein Method: Run in the direction opposite to that of the lion. Due to higher relative velocity, the lion will also run faster and will get tired soon. Now you can trap it easily.
Software Engineer Method: Catch a cat and claim that your testing has proven that its a Lion. If anyone comes back with issues tell that you will upgrade it to Lion.
Indian Police Method: Catch any animal and interrogate it & torture it to accept that its a lion .
Rajnikanth Method : Keep warning the lion that u may come and attack anytime. The lion will live in fear and die soon in fear itself.
Manirathnam Method (director): Make sure the lion does not get sun light and put the lion in a dark room with a single candle lighted. Keep murmuring something in its ears. The lion will be highly irritated and commit suicide.
Karan Johar Method (director): Send a lioness into the forest. Our lion and lioness fall in love with each other. Send another lioness in to the forest, followed by another lion. First lion loves the first lioness and the second lion loves the 2nd lioness. ut 2nd lioness loves both lions. Now send another lioness (third) into the forest. You don't understand right... ok....read it after 15 yrs, then also u wont!
Yash Chopra method (director): Take the lion to Australia or US.. and kill it in a good scenic location.
Govinda method: Continuously dance before the lion for 5 or 6 days.
Menaka Gandhi method: Save the lion from a danger and feed him with some vegetables continuously.
George bush method: Link the lion with Osama bin laden and shoot him!


Finally .. the spice version
SP Style : Get the lion to watch a movie video and ask him to write a pre-read, then the 200 page summary, then form groups and write a detailed report and later again form another group and then write under a different topic on the same movie and then once again form a different group to present a PPT; and to make it really lively link each of these works with credits worth a dime.

p.s: The above entry was purely a sarcastic comment, the germ of which was after we were asked to watch the brilliant piece of a movie called "WallStreet" and later we have to sit throughout the night forming teams and discussing about the PPT.

GlaxoSmithKline garners student market....

"Just when you need that extra mile of energy and boost ... check out GSK's products " Shouts the headline.. and then as the camera zooms in you can see truckloads of SP's students gathered around the drinks dispenser having their fill along with Sachin Tendulkar saying .. "BOOST is the secret of OUR energy"

And then we got back to studies.....

p.s: GSK had come over to campus for their pre-placement talks and as a result we had free DRINKS(read as Horlicks & Boost). I guess next on the line should be Pizza Hut or maybe MTR... what say Placement Committee ;)

p.p.s: Did u know that Horlicks which is sold in India as a energy giving drink is actually sold in UK as a sleep-inducing drink ?!!!
WHOW .. definitely something is AMISS

All i missed was a thursday :(

        Unlike in all other institutes, SPJIMR has this philosphy of having thursdays as the official week-end; every other day including Saturday and Sunday are considered are full working days and are usual days for guest-lectures.
        According to SP routine, we all take off on wednesday nights end up with some resturant and spending time out of the campus (more so cause the Campus MESS is closed on wednesday nights) and then use thursday to catch up on all lost sleep during the week; in most cases we end up just snoozing our alarm clocks throughout the entire thursday DAY.
        And so, i decided to give my home-town a visit due to personal reasons ruminating on the fact that thursdays would after all be chill-out day.

        But only after i arrived here back into campus on Friday morning i realized what i missed :-
        1) CEO talk by Mr. Baru Rao, Capgemini India
        2) Deadline for submitting one of my papers
        3) Group-assignment work
        4) 3 pre-reads for the next day

        Well... I must write this down in my DIARY "THURSDAYS are still not a HOLIDAY"
