3000 papers cost a Tree

I am sure everyone who finds time to visit my blog will surely have a lot of time to kill ... so I am sure the people who read this are the ones who check their mails everyday. With such great knowledge of my Target audience and their surfing patterns on the net(its a delibrate effort to sound pompous and I amn't apologetic about it), let me write a small observation which made me put my brains to work.
If you have observed, our janta usually has a signature line attached to each mail. Some that I came across are:

• Don't give up because hard work pays
• Not by merits, but by mercy
• I like crying in the rains coz on one can see my tears

and so many more... but the important things is that none of them were impressive enough to make me think of signatures .
Last week, I got a mail from the Chief Marketing Officer of one of the group companies of Financial Technologies( the company which has bought my brains....loll!!). His signature line goes as: " 3000 papers cost a tree so don't take printouts unnecessarily."
I was really impressed by the line cause most lines I have seen are motivating stuff, religious beliefs or something the user finds interesting . But this was the first time that I saw some Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) message as a signature. We all can take a cue out of his book and come up with signatures as informative and action initiating ... and what better than a message to save the environment and take steps towards the already threatening problem of global warming .
I would like all readers of mine also to act like this top-level executive and write signature lines jo aam aadmi ke liye informative ho and usme kuch achcha karne ka junoon paida kar sake...
If you want to suggest signature lines of such calibre, feel free to drop in such comments here . We can surely use this platform and the highly underrated web medium to take up issues of such significance to the environment and mankind in general.

Cant afford to miss her!!! (at any cost )

There are some things in life which we love so much that we can do anything to get it. That is true love for me. It could be for a person, a dream or anything but we will give it our all if we LOVE something that badly... and Love makes the poet in you come to the fore... so let me pen down something for the LOVE of my life... for I cant afford to miss her...

Every morning at seven, I gotta leave my house.
My affinity for her is akin a man's for his spouse.
To make it on time, I walk, skip and run ,
but it is to get her, so the effort is all fun .
If you are getting ideas, give a break to your brain,
For what I can't afford to miss, is my 7:19 Andheri train.

As I reach the station, three people greet me there,
You will be glad to know, we all love her here.
As soon as she enters, we climb into her like Hare,
The fourth guy greets us inside,others give a cold stare.
We ensure to catch her up, come sunshine or rain,
For what we can't afford to miss, is our 7:19 Andheri train.

Let me introduce my friends, who love her just like me,
The guy who meets her first isn't as busy as a bee.
But every moment of life, he seems to really enjoy.
This Thierry-Henry-lookalike is aptly named Rijoy.
No matter what happens, he'll take all the pain ,
For what he can't afford to miss, is his 7:19 Andheri train.

The next guy I'll introduce... is a gentle six footer,
If you don't know Biology, he can be a great Tutor.
With him for company, it isn't difficult to pass samay,
This manager in the making is my friend named Amay.
He'll do daredevil stunts and escape without a sprain,
For what he can't afford to miss, is his 7:19 Andheri train.

One of my friends unlike us, is a guy rather quiet,
To all our co-passengers , he is a welcome respite.
His collegues vouch for him, they say he is the Best,
he takes these in his stride, for Mochesh is truly modest.
But he'll run a thousand mile and jump over a million drain,
For what he can't afford to miss, is his 7:19 Andheri train.

A guy unlike others was so impressed by our zest,
For joining our group, he simply couldn't resist .
With us, he has truly added flavour to the trip,
This truly friendly guy is rightly named Soumyadeep.
If you happen to be in his way, you ought to refrain,
For what he cant afford to miss, is his 7:19 train.



The one I din't introduce yet is someone I know for years,
For all the time we've lived, we have lent each other our ears.
The journey is great but he adds to all the thrill,
I refer to my brother as bhai ; his name is Sunil .
He'll clear all stumbling blocks, he'll jump over a crane,
For what he can't afford to miss, is his 7:19 Andheri train.

We shout, we scream, we laugh and we talk all crap ,
Our fellow passengers feel like a rhino in a trap.
We make our lives enjoyable without caring for the mass,
their expressions let us know, we are a pain in their ass.
We aren't sorry to them for capturing their reign,
For what we can't afford to miss, is our 7:19 Andheri train.

Mandatory Disclosure : Marked in red are the names of those people who ensure that the ever lasting journey from Nerul to Andheri is fun-filled and I just can't imagine travelling without them.
Cheers to the our Famous Five gang who are slowly but surely spreading their terror in their own humble way!!!
