Dishum Dishum....

Dishum..... Dishum... Dishum....

Those who are not familiar with Hindi movies, for that matter any Indian movie, this is the sound of a punch.

"You think I am not important eh? Lemme show ya...."

DISHUM......

And off went my head giving me my worst headache in recent memory.

"Tchhh Tchhh.... thats all you can do? You can be easily cured by a saridon.... lemme show ya wat I can do....."

DISHUM.........

My wrist started hurting so much I couldn't type.

"Now tat is juz a showoff. Tat is nuthin. It can be cured by a spray.... lemme show ya wat I can do......"

DISHUM........

And my stomach hurt so bad, I could not sit, I could not sit even to drive back home.

"Well tat ain't impressive mister. I can hurt more."

DISHUM........

"Me head came back with a venegance."

"I can cause more pain. Watch now"

DISHUM.......

"My wrist started hurting so much I had to wrap an ace bandage around my wrist.

"And you thought I was being as intense as I can be? Take this."

DISHUM DISHUM DISHUM......

I could not eat anything for 2 days surviving on liquid diet.

The war of the world was definitely not started by this human. And I was the worst sufferer. Finally when I felt a little better last evening, I watched a movie.

This morning when I got up....

DISHUM...... DISHUM...... DISHUM.......DISHUM...... DISHUM...... DISHUM.......DISHUM...... DISHUM...... DISHUM.......DISHUM...... DISHUM...... DISHUM.......DISHUM...... DISHUM...... DISHUM.......

I have caught cold.

I have my advice of mustard oil with me. I know the recipes of honey, lime, ginger etc.... Anything else guys?

P.S.:- Wonder if I will watch Steven Speilberg's "War of the worlds" at all :-?

Let me see. I've heard of computer viruses. But I have NEVER heard of colds spreading via computers!

You were watching a movie with big, bad fights and loud sound effects? And you felt every blow in your head, hands, stomach?

Or you felt as if someone was beating you up, sound effects and all, just like in the movies?

Aches? Fever? Sounds like the flu.

HAVE YOU TRIED YOUR MUSTARD THING?

Advil cold and sinus for the aches and fever. Hot, black tea with honey and lime juice for the sore throat. Buckleys for the cough.

You poor guy, I hope you feel better soon.

Try not to give it to your little daughter.

So how you feeling now?

I don't mind cold as long as I can read. And sleep!!

AND I managed without the mustard oil treatment, thank you very much.

I had visions of the mustard oil damaging my nose and I'd have to rush over to my neighbour, an Ear, Nose and Throat specialist, and he'd have to do surgery.

Well, tonight I will go for Mustard oil. I had to come back in the morning from the office. Cold does to me what extreme cold or heat does to snakes. ;)

Are you still joining the snake club?

Yep... one of the top 3 items on my list of things to do in this quarter. Lol almost sounded like the CEO of a company there. Yep. Unfortunately there is not much awareness about such things here in India and it took me a while to figure out such a club.

You interested?

Just curious. Like what is a snake club all about, what do people do, and so on.

Well, here it is a small club which tries to educate people on snakes and how they are harmless in their own way. Which species of it is poisonous and which is not. Why snake charmers actually kill a snake slowly? They also teach you how to handle a snake, first aid in case one is bitten by a snake. And they ask people to call them in case they have a snake in the homes/offices rather than killing it.
