Just barely 13 days in to the new year & my annual encounter (although I did not have one in 2008) with a TVS Scooty has happened. I have a BIG history with that particular vehicle. In the past 4 years, I have been run over by women riding that wretched death-trap!! And just one of those 4 attempted murders can be attributed to my negligence.
I was just minding my own business standing on the corner of the street waiting for my friend to show up and out of nowhere this girl on a Scooty decides that I am good target practise for her crashing skills. She turned out to be a 7th standard student from KV Adyar. Wonder what school girls have against me? Why don't people on any vehicle other than a Scooty try & kill me?? Not that I want to be run over every time I step out, but I am just curious.
And with a swollen kneecap & a bruised ankle, I am off to Delhi to try & explain to some 'senior experts' the fact that Electricity generated through Nuclear Power & supplied to houselholds does not emit Nuclear radiation. Bozos!
Oh, Tasha ran me over in 2006 with her Scooty & we are pretty good friends now. She says it was destiny that I was supposed to be in front of her Scooty that day. I beg to differ. Vehicles aren't meant to be driven on sidewalks!! What a way to make friends though! :P
