Kulti humko jaan se pyara hai....

I wish I could come up with a better topic....but u see....Kulti is my birthplace....and last time I checked....this was MY BLOG!!!! So...just shut up and READ!!!!!! :P

                        So....here's the thing...KULTI is my hometown...and it used to be a wonderful place until the company's light bulb fused! However, we still made peace with it and stayed here for one more year while my father used to travel up and down from Kulti to Burnpur everyday to provide for us. Anyways, it  had to be over soon and we shifted to our new home at Asansol...in a wonderful place called "Evelyn Lodge". But thats a different part of the story. Anyways, soon, we had to shift back to Kulti coz my father was retransferred to this place when the company's light bulb was replaced by a lantern! :P

 So...Kulti is a fantastic place if you dont have dreams. Its an amazing place to build a house if you are
ready to stay indoors 24x7! You dont need to have money here....coz you'll probably not get anything in the nearby stores that you'd like to buy. If you are a micro-organism enthusiast and are curious about what viruses and bacteria might be there in those transparent waters...well you have nothing to worry about coz the water here is rarely transparent. And....speaking of water, there is no problem of water supply here coz even if your tap stops watering...your ceiling wont! Besides, its an amazing place for biotech and biology students coz they'll have access to millions of insect specimens.....and may even find a new species inside their pants during one of their weekend naps! (somehow the insects here have the
tendency to go inside ur pants even before you've met). Besides, the students may not even have to go find the specimens coz they are always available all over any light source you dare to switch on after 5 pm. Speaking about light sources, you dont need to be afraid of the power that they consume coz they glow the brightest when they are running on the inverter! And you dont need to be afraid of "when"....coz it may very well be replaced with "always" owing to a few load shadings we have here which consumes

almost two-thirds of our day. Speaking of day, you might as well be interested about the nights which are
mostly very quiet except for the sound of those iron thieves sawing away every last atom of iron  from any substance thats left outside,unguarded....including your bungalow boundary and the lamp posts!
Speaking of lamp posts, well, the locals here are truly cautious about saving power and they dont let any halogen lamps glowing on the lamp posts to steal away even an ounce of power that those precious natural resources of our mother earth provide. So, they throw stones at those halogen lamps until they are shattered all over the road. Not that their soul intension is to save power coz some part of their interest also rests on the fact that darkness helps their cause in a few ways (if you have read my last point). Speaking of locals, well, there arent a whole lot of people you can see if you decide to step outside the boundaries of your house coz most of them have died of hunger after the company was  closed (except for the few who turned cannibals, probably) and the rest were transferred. As a matter of fact, there isnt a living soul staying withing the 2 mile radius of our own humble house. Speaking of our house, well, we stay in one of the company quarters which are more like huge bungalows with those huge doors and windows that the britishers built during their times. In fact, I've heard tales of Mr. Wilson who used to live in the same bungalow in which we are staying now some hundred and fifty years ago. Oops...I most unintensionally gave away the age of our bungalow.....and guess what, its not growing any younger...at least the cracked walls and the trees growing out of those cracks and the leaking ceiling (which, as I specified earlier, aids in providing us 24 hour water supply during rainy seasons) would prove that. Speaking of big house, well we have a lot of rooms in our bungalow with one of them assigned to me. I have my high end desktop computer in this room, which of late, has degraded from the post of being exactly "high end" as it has already developed a huge number of bad sectors in its 1 TB hard drive owing to the erratic power fluctuations we have here...and even the grounding not being proper to keep our precious electronic equipments safe. Speaking of safety, well the roads around here are very safe if you arent a good looking lady or carrying a lot of cash or both! Speaking of roads....well...actually there arent many....and the ones that are present...are normally covered with a very holy material for the Hindus....that is....cow-dung! :)

Anyways, I should not brag too much about the place I live in. So, this is it...

Thanks for reading...
 
NOTE: Appologies to Sourav Santikari (my frnd Shanti)...he loves the place for what it is....and I respect that. :P

Tada...

See ya soon.. :)
