Subject: Ajo's B'day mailer

Scene : The hero goes to “see” a girl in his home town…He starts self introduction….

Ajo : I come from a very reputed software company… ok? and am a technical lead there….ok?
I want to ask a few questions to the girl….
After marrying me are u ready to join my company and slog like I do…tell me….else it’s ok..will discuss that later…ok…?
I want to test your technical knowledge….have u read “.NET & J2EE Interoperability by Dwight Peltzer”, else Steve McConnell’s “Code Complete” , or “Inside Windows” or at least “NASA mooned America by Rene”…eh..do u read books?

Girl: I have read all the novels in Mangalam n Manorama magazines… I like the novel “Havva beach” from Manorama the most…and I love the novelist Kottayam Pushpanath…
Ajo [with a suspicious look] : You love him? Means what??? ok, forget it….I have a few conditions…there won’t be any big celebrations for the wedding, ok?….it will be a small n simple function in my pantry, ok?…I’ll lay a network cable on you and you will lay another network cable on me, ok?…after that my coffee gang will talk about my fundae’s for 30 minutes, ok?…then we’ll have half cup of coffee from the vending machine…..n the session will be terminated…ok?

After taking a deep breath….

AJO : I’ll be slogging in my office most of the time…full time….Have you read the book “Memories in Hideout” by Sri. Thoppil Bhasi….my life will be like that…IHLD is hunting for me….maybe they’ll block me….being the wife of a smart n tall s/w engineer like me you should be ready to fix any bugs at any time….and sometimes you’ll have to deal with auditors….and then u’ll have to hide the mp3’s in the pst’s…..it will be very tough road ahead for you, ok?

Girl’s father is fed up hearing all this…he blasts the broker and asks the hero to get out…!!

Hope this will give you a fair idea why this guy is still single….yups…Hope he would have written a book on his uncountable futile attempts to woo a girl …it seems that nowadays girls are not interested in ol guys like him when younger n smarter guys like kutts n Gwad are there…

Ajo Puthupurackal John…the guy whom everybody in Minfy knows…(obviously b’coz he’s 6 feet n 3 inches tall )…celebrated his 29th b’day (pls forgive if I subtracted a couple of years.. J) yesterday ….. The guy who impresses everyone with his fundae’s on everything under the sun is well known for his trademark “OK..???” which he tells by shaking his head… :p

Currently in the process of constructing a huge bungalow in the middle of his 1 acre rubber plantations @ his single but always ready to mingle bachelor is desperately in search of his lady love…having tried his luck @ d scores of nursing colleges which are spread all across this city he’s now thinking to try his luck in the capital of god’s own country…which explains why he is trying for a transfer to Trinfy…. :p

He has this ability to deliver touché quotes…..a few of his most quoted quotes are as compiled below :

“Nothin is impossible for a techie…”

“Forgive, but never forget”

“One man four weeks waiting for a big bang to happen”

“you need to have godfathers at your work place who can….”

“Good apples are always on the top of the tree, which cannot be accessible”

“I’m a crooked guy…Ok”

“All the girls in NM are my sisters, except one…Ok”

“I don’t give any party…Ok”

A good day

Awards and accolades make you feel like - I’m the best, the good feeling that sometimes cannot be expressed using words, but tru emotions.

I got some certificates, which never makes me feel like - I’m the best, because I knew, the work which I had done.

However, today a surprise incident happened, which I never expected in my wild dreams too. My client manager came to my desk and handed over a gift coupon and said this is for the good work you have done. Yes, the word from him makes me feel proud, ‘caz he is not only a manager but one of the best technical architect I ever met.
