Imagine calling up someone who does not know you and asking them your name and your father's name. How much more weirder can it get??
Well, that's what the income tax dept is expecting us to do. I was filing my returns online and I could not get past the registration page with every possible combination of my name for the first name last name.
My God!! Who ever introduced this concept of first, middle, last, sur names????
At least I am happy, my name has only 1 word.. imagine the fate of those who have too many words in their names... heeheee.. I pity PV... My weirdest conversation ever!!!
BTW, if you have not filed your returns yet, you can do it online on the incometax website. It is pretty easy if you know your name right :-)

In the last 5 years of my work, I always made sure that I spent 30 - 45 minutes post lunch in reading something that is not work related. Now, its almost like work work and work... No enthu around. People are so silent glued to their monitors as if something is going to fall from there and they have to catch it. I know I know.. its all signs of boredom... Let me quickly turn on my music player and get hold of my ear phones. Guess that will get me going.
Why do I always have at least 10 things to do and end up doing none of them?Right now, I want to ...
