I like to move it or What you will

A few interesting days have passed by since my last post but unfortunately not interesting enough for a full blown rolling on the floor laughing post. To change things around a bit I'm going to divide this entry into little subsections. Just to mess with my own head.

Weird thought of the week. Got stuck in a traffic jam albeit a fifteen minute one, which is a good deal less than the average in this city. The cause for the traffic jam was a cow in the middle of the road. The first preventive measure for such calamities that popped into yours truly's mind was that we needed to eat more of them. Why? Simple. Who's ever seen a chicken cross a road? QED

Work related news. Mad night yesterday. Was up trying to piece together the abdomen of someone who had fallen a couple of storeys and then someone else who's been hit by a truck or some such vehicle significantly larger than him. For those of you who understand and appreciate Patient A has a sigmoid transection, an Ileal perf and an intraperitoneal bladder rupture. Apart from a pelvic fracture. Patient B had a extraperitoneal bladder rupture and a mesentric tear... and a pelvic fracture. All stable now but I'm half dead. This, thus is an E&OE post.

Other happenings that confirm darwin's theory of evolution, three people I know climbed up an uncharted hill in some naxal and wildlife infested district of the state, which is also mosquito and thus epidemic infested. They climbed up at six pm. in clothes that can hardly be described as those meant for trekking/bouldering. Promptly got lost right on top and amidst thoughts of being mauled by bears (more about that in a just a bit) and molested by naxals they finally hit upon the idea of calling basecamp. This could be a potential advertisement for the cellular service. So after a group of enterprising young men and dogs found them and got them to safety they realised that they spent the few hours of torture, trauma and torment on TOP of a bear cave. Apparently they barely escaped. Currently they've been treated for many minor cuts and bruises and heavily sedated. Plans are on to radio collar them soon. Due to reasons best known to the miscreants and the phenomenal punning talent of my source, this episode has been titled the Shashank Redemption.

Fun things to do in a traffic jam. Today's was to listen to the Ali G version of I like to move it from the OST of Madagascar ("Mada-who-aa?" "Not who-aa, ascar!") Relived the entire movie in a forty minute drive with most people around me staring and and wondering which psychadelic drug I was on. then I made the mistake of switching to radio and had an 'unknown' radio jockey bore me to death with stupid jokes and his inherent idiocy while interviewing an "oh I'm so old but still cool" doctor. who incidentally dedicated "Beep" by the Pussycat dolls to his daughter. Those of you who've heard the song, you can close your shocked mouths now and those of you who haven't listen to the song.

Addenda. movies I still wanna see and I havent - Ice age 2, crash. Still doubtful about Aeon Flux. But its hard to not want to see Charlize in spandex....
