Leaks are inevitable!

The mini shower in the toilet was leaking. I called the plumber who fixed it with a new Shower head. After a week it again started leaking. This time the plumber changed the leaking one with a plastic shower head he had as a spare.

I think it is time for leaks. The shower started leaking again. This time the leak was profound like the wikileak!

In a movie, a comedian undergoes a surgeory after receiving an accidental electric shock. As a side effect of the operation, he gets a strange power in that he can actually read what is going on in the minds of others!

With this strange powers he meets people who are actually scheming within whilst they put up a friendly disposition with others. His exposures of people give some hillarious moments.

Like knowing the timing of ones end, if all of us can unravel the minds of others, it will become too difficult to have a peaceful social life!

In the days of Vikramatitya, a courtisan complained about a poor man of being intimate with her in his dreams for which she demanded 1000 gold coins as fee! This complaint she made based on the information she received through her cronies who over heard the private utterances of this poor man. The court ruled that it is enough the poor man pays her in his subsequent dream!

Way back in 88, a young and pretty woman officer joined our office. It was quite refreshing time that we got along so well to the envious eyes of others in the office! A concerned and caring staff member told me to stop being close to her, citing the rumors floating in the office.
I told him that we cannot stop people from carrying tales or rumors as we have no control over what others think and,in the same manner, they may even spread rumors about others. Within a month he came running to me complaining about the new rumors going around, linking him and a typist!

Well, leaks are the results of curious minds and spurious materials! So I have come to this conclusion that rumors, gossips and leaks are inevitable!

Summary on Seminar

Just attended a seminar at the Atlantis, Conference Hall. For a change, the registration formaility was done away with. Since the attendance was by invitation only, cards for invitees were ready to be picked up from the alphabetical arrangement. The delegates had good time in searching their tags and absolutely thrilled when they traced their cards!

Although, the seminar started 10 minutes behind the schedule, like an aircraft, it picked up speed during the journey and finished in time!

The gathering was very impressive, so much so that if some one goes out to attend the call of nature,well, by that I mean attending a call on handset, somebody else would come and occupy his place! It happened to my guest who had to settle at the backside row when he came back after attending his call.

The seminar was on a topic called 'STRATA MANAGEMENT' which is about the recent introduction of Strata Law in UAE. Strata law is concerned with Realty sector and its purpose is to manage, regulate, control and govern various aspects of property related issues including transfer of property besides defining the rights and responsibilities of various stake holders.

The seminar was organised by Oman Insurance Company. Speakers were from companies that are into Strata management, valuation, Law firms specialising in Strata and, not but not the least, from the insurance industry. Of course, the aim was to finally drive the point to the audience about the importance of availing a special insurance cover developed for the Property Owners Association.

The seminar ended with a luncheon at the Ballroom. A scottish couple from Australia, who were part of the delegates, shared the same table with me. Ms M quipped, if the Strata law was clear to me after attending the seminar. I sort of mumbled to the effect that 'everything was absolutely clear'! The conversation continued by recollecting some valid questions raised by the audience during the Q & A session, and then moved on to recent cricket matches between India & Australia, in which, for a change, India white-washed Australia.

We exchanged contact details promising to be in touch. I told Mrs M about my weekly contribution to short take and urged her to read one, if she can and give her comments. This piece is dedicated to the serendipitious friendship of scottish couple.

The question Mrs M asked me is still bothering me into thinking if I have this problem of attention deficiency? I then comfort myself by reasoning out that mere attending seminars would never give detailed insight, but only kindle your inquisitive mind into making further probe on the subject.

Well, to summarise, seminars do desseminate information!
