Power of Thought


I have heard of people who stare at objects in the hope that they can move the object with the power of their thought. Today I tried to make my lab experiment produce the desired result by sitting and staring at it.

Don't Ask

Dear Ladies, I do not ask you your age, so please don't ask me my stipend amount.

Dear Gentlemen, I do not ask you about the progress of your relationship with your girlfriends, so please don't ask me about my progress with my research work.

Its bad manners to ask such things

Runaway Thoughts

Recently, IISc held a Science and Technology run. I will not go into the details here. Needless to say, I knew my stamina and I did not participate in the run. I just stood there and watched the people run.

My body was idle but the mind was overrun with thoughts. One of them stood out.

"Hundreds of people running, wearing numbered chest badges. Marathon or mass prison breakout?"
