An iComdey: iPod - Wherever I went Music followed
My Blog was kinda dormant for a while. I’d wanted to post often but I don’t find time off from my schedule of going to office, watch a movie a day and hit the sack. Now there was this very funny incident which happened today in office. This is worth a mention and hope u find it funny and hav a laugh. It was abt 1.30PM and time to go for lunch. I go to a South Indian mess abt 5 mins drive from office daily and today was no exception. Before leaving, I went into the washroom to take a piss. While taking a piss, I heard this particular song “Kulicha Kutralam” from the Tail movie Duet. A very good number sung by SPB and composed by the great ARR. Now there was nother guy in the washroom and he kinda started at me n he happened to be a Sardar. Now the song was kinda feeble but I could hear it clearly. Crystal I thought and checked my mobile phone if the song was playing accidentally. But there was nothing playin in my phone and I even checked the speakers and brought the phone close to my ears to see if the song was playing at all. Surprisingly it wasn’t. Now this got me thinking. I was wondering how on earth was I hearing this song and from where was the sound actually coming. Then when I looked down, the sound kinda seemed to come from the Urinal outlet. I was taken aback and was staring at the outlet for a moment. Was this magic or was I imagining things or was my mind playing games with me. Just imagine, he news of songs coming out of a Urinal Outlet will make if not international atleast national headlines. The Sardar had left the washroom and wondering about this peculiar thing, I walked towards the elevators to reach the basement. I saw the Sardar taking nother elevator and he had an iPod in his hand and earphones plugged to his ears. Whoa!!! A sardar listening to a Tamil song! Wow! Now I figured that he must have been listening to music when inside the washroom and probably at full volume I could hear the sound from nearby. Thinking that this was the reason for the song I heard, I entered the elevator. Now comes the surprise. The Sardar had taken a different elevator and I had taken a different elevator but still music was playing and this time it was a different song “En Kadhale” from Duet and a beautiful number as well. First it was Kulicha Kutralam from the Urinal Outlet and now En Kadhale in the elevator. Puzzled, I checked my mobile phone again but no sound from it. Was my mind really playing games with me or was I crazy to imagine things again. When I was wondering how a different song was playing inside the elevator, I checked my trouser pocket and my iPod was in it. I normally switch off my iPod when not listening to music and keep it in the Lock mode so as to avoid it getting switched on accidentally. But this time, I had forgot to set it in Lock mode and it had got switched on accidentally and from the playlist the Kulicha Kutralam song was first playing in the washroom and the next song in the playlist being En Kadhale was the one playing when inside the elevator. I realized what a fool I was to imagine if my mind was playing games with me when in reality it was actually my iPod which was playing games with me and I couldn’t help but laugh at myself. I came back from lunch and I told my team this funny incident and they all had a hearty laugh. Very funny when I think of it even now and how I had made an ass outta myself.
