Mumbai traffic is driving me crazy these days. When I came to Bombay, and decided to take up a job in an elearning company in Andheri, people usually mumbaites used to tell me that you will get used to it…but till now that has not happened. Destiny is playing cruel games with me. So if I get used to waiting patiently at a traffic signal for 150 seconds, then soon after I have to learn to positively spend my time in a traffic jam for an hour. Or there is some flyover coming up which leads to bumper to bumper traffic. I take the western express highway so going from Lower Parel to Andheri should take me 35-40 mins though that rarely happens. It takes me typically an hour.

A petty thief, a teacher and a lawyer die and go to heaven.
When they get there they are stopped by St. Peter, who then says, “Sorry, heaven’s crowding up, so you need to answer a question correctly, or else you can’t get in.”
He looks at the teacher, and asks her: “What was the name of the famous ocean-liner that sank after hitting an iceberg?” “Oh, that’s easy,” the teacher replied, “the Titanic.” So St. Peter let her into heaven.
Next he turned to the petty thief. “How many people died on that ship?” St. Peter asked. “Oooh, that’s tough, but I saw the movie, and it was 1, 500.” St. Peter stepped away and the thief walked into heaven.
Finally, St. Peter turned to the lawyer. He simply said to him: “Name them.”
