"goli dene ke 'n' tarikey!!" recounted by Hash!!

yes...this is the topic i mentioned in the last post..suzie asked me to write on this.

for the unintiated "goli dena" is something like ditching people, sort of making excuses to avoid meeting them and other things on these lines...get the idea? ok..technically, i never gave goli to suzie..he just thought i was doing that..if i am unwell and i tell you im unwell and i cant come out..doesnt mean i cant even stand and come down below the building...and if i say im in pain doesnt mean i cant take pain killers and be fine in the next 2 hrs...so thats that for you suzie..
so no golis for you..

but then there's hash..he read the last blog and rechristened 'goli' as chaati' ...thats what his folks call goli..and he felt that he is sailing in the same boat ..it was like this statement stirred some deep sentiments within him...

he actually sat with me and went through the ways i have given him a chaati...he was like "i can easily tell you atleast 10 ways you give chaati..if not 100" ..(yeah thanks dude! what would i do without you!)

and according to him...in his words..they are:

1. im getting a call..so i have to hang up and ill call you back.. but never do. (this is generally true..i must be getting another call and that call would have ended after a few hours..)
2. i cant come out anywhere coz i have lots of work at office and im working late for a few weeeks. (you've got to show that you are indispensable somewhere atleast)
3. im already going out for dinner somewhere/ive already cooked my dinner.
4. im watching MTV Roadies..so i cant come down..(how crude can i be? i cud have refined this one..)
5. ive seen this movie. (that ive done..if a movie has been in theatres for 3 days, more often than not, ive seen it)
6. i have to get my hair colored..will take around 4 hours and ive to go to bandra for that..(it takes longer than that and dude it is a tedious job and you have to plan ahead)
7. my dad's expecting me for dinner. (see, if i say he cudnt care less...might make you wonder about his parenting skills)
8. i cant come down because what will i tell dad..(i used this only once and that day it was a really valid chaati)
9. i just disappear..:) (i accept this one...guilty as charged..inexcusable behavior)
10. this is a private line..you are not supposed to call here..ill call you back.. (dude, you called on my ceo's number.. :))

so, there you are, Monsieur hash..these are your 10 chaatis...
and what was that logic about..... if you told the 10 ways in which ive given you chaatis and suzie told the 10 that ive given him, then 10 * 10 would make it 100 ways to give goli...huh?

nice calculation, given your background and your present job...is this how you give chaatis to your clients too?
