The story so far...

Intrepid Super hero Ford Prefect is stuck in time space coordinates with strange alien characters ... Small furry chipmunks , suicidal androids, Spooky crystal ball gazers, Creepy whisky loving Ghouls ... He was even forced to share accommodation with a creature Ford suspected to be the infamous Bugblatter Beast of Trall.... Having fought all attempts to be assimilated into the collective Borg, Ford does his time and is released into the Real World... Something which turned out to be a lot harder than Ford had ever imagined... Without the basic life support systems like house keeping and mirror pool parties with free booze, he finds himself helpless....
He stares like a retard as his new masters talk in a strange dialect where black box testing has nothing to do with a plane crash and waterfalls are some sort of design methodologies... With great support from his friends and 12 year old scotch , Ford is taking it one challenge at a time. His first assignment led him into hot and sultry Chennai ...With a stern warning from Marvin to have a positive attitude (!!!!) and an even sterner warning from K.S not to mess with the autowallahs there, Ford decides to face his fears and in the true spirit of a hitchhiker,go to a land where 55 year old Rajnikant can still play a college student ...
Having exhausted every option of verbal communication, Ford makes desperate attempts to communicate with the locals in hand signals... Luckily he got out of that place before having to buy a light bulb or toilet paper....

His next assignment brings him back to Hyd... Ford is unhappy for not being able to make it to Pune and reporting back to General BB and the Rocky mountain Goat...but at least he now doesnt have to worry about protecting his stock of single malts from Trillian... Mean while Trillian is spreading her empire in Western Maharashtra and is making new and "powerful" allies... She thinks she can scare Ford into buying a Reliance mobile and commenting on her blog... Haaaa ... Ford Prefect the Perfect and his trusted umbrella are more than a match for Trillian and her Zoo of exotic and domesticated creatures...

In the mean time Fords sidekick G is locked in a deadly battle with the bears of the stock market... Not to be outdone by their massacre of the sensex, G vows to take his revenge and refuses to let the market take away his large screen hi definition LCD T.V...

Back in Hyd, Ford uses his super powers to trick his masters into thinking that he is working hard all day long while all he does is read mails and blogs ... But he suspects that they might be on to him.. He senses a conspiracy to make him work...There are murmurs of him "owning" an "Initiative"... and using his "Expertise" for a "Challenging" assignment... Ford needs to think and think fast ...

Will our Hero spend the rest of his days working like a dog?? or will he pull it off yet another time and save the day (his day that is) ...


The story continues…

Ladies and Gentlemen,

May I have your attention please!

The blogger of this site has gone under hibernation as he didn't anticipate that he would actually have to work for the money that he would be drawing.... Post B School jitters....
