Atlast a long weekend- niceone indeed !!

Its been an eon since I put a blog post. I was eagerly waiting for a long weekend. Thanks to "Vijayadashami".I have got much needed reprieve after long time.
I went to Mysore on Wednesday evening. Thursday was "Vijayadashami". I reached satellite bus stand by 4.30pm. There was an interminate queue of people to take tickets to Mysore.To my luck, when I thought of joining the queue, KSRTC people announced that special non-stop buses have been arranged and asked the people to get into to the bus and tickets would be issued on the way. I was lucky enough to get into one of the buses after much struggle:Being thin will help in such situations :).
As soon as we reached "Kengeri", there was road block,people had blocked the road.People were frustrated, as they had been waiting for hours to catch the Mysore bus at Kengeri. Even though it was a non-stop bus, driver and conductor were just mute spectators as people started boarding the bus.The bus was jam packed, people standing on every inch of the bus floor!!,my feet were spared!!!. Some of the people who could not board the bus started banging the bus from outside. Never, had i seen such a herd of people visiting Mysore!!! It looked like almost whole of Bangalore was migrating to Mysore,all because of Dasara!!!.

This weekend was an ideal one for me. I spent much of time eating(outside) and shopping for my marriage :). I have tried almost all kinds of victuals available in chat street. (behind Marimallapa's School, near our Jogi Mahesha's house).I would recommend the following:
1. Mallige Dose.
2. Shavige.
3. Masala Dosa.
4. Badam Milk with ice cream.

I would also like to recommend few eating places with this post. This would help all connoisseurs of food :) @ Mysore

In the city of Demois - (people BP hushaaru!!!)

In the city of Iowa , there lived four unemployed friends. They were tired of searching for jobs. Finally one day they decided to do something innovative, they came up with an idea of directing a trepid horror film. They were ebullient hoping that their endeavor would be successful. They were in search of a horror story.
For the next one month, they learnt the art of directing a film in a local studio. They had hired few local artists for the movie. Now their next milestone was to search for an appropriate location to shoot their first tremulous shot. They took a taxi car and moved north, towards the city of Demois. On the way, the fuel got exhausted. The car could not move even a feet. They tried starting the car many times but all in vain. None of them were aware of the place, they were in . They try to make a call from their mobile, but there is no network.It was late evening, ten minutes past nine. The entire place looked deserted and desolated. All they could hear was silence!!!! .Everyone was afraid to wander in such a gloomy, crestfallen atmosphere,to enquire about the nearest bunk or a place where they could take refuge for that night !

All four got down and started walking in desultory way. There were no lights, in fact no street at all!! All they could see was mournful darkness with sound of howling wild dogs. All four were very upset and their minds were blank. Holding each others hands tightly, they moved a certain distance. As they moved, it started drizzling. They could feel the tiny droplets falling on them. One of them said, “ Alas !! our situation is become horrible”. The other said, “ No, we are all saved, look to your left”.

All the other three looked to their left with agog. All of them screamed "Hurray !!! cheers !!!". They could see a mansion that looked shabby and haunted with plants grown on the walls, in the light flashed by the frequent lightning in the sky!. Their muscles relaxed. They felt as if they had explored an oasis in a desert. As they moved closer to the mansion, they all started sweating!! They could hear preternatural sounds. The building did not seem like dwelling place of humans. All four started freezing out of fear,they had no other option, but to take shelter in that dungeon. They opened the gate of the mansion.It made a harsh creaking sound. They quivered through the path that paved the way to the main door of this formidable place. Adding to their nervousness, they find a latch that is broken and the door is half open. They slowly stepped inside, awaiting to see the owner of the house. There was just a candle glinting in the hall. In this light,what did they see ?????
Imagining a devil ????
