Have come to know that Grandpa's health condition has deteriorated over the past few weeks. He has lived for 90+ years in the best of his health. Has never gone to a Doc, in fact never seen a Hospital. He has been conducting office of Stamp Vendor since the age of 12. In 2008, he received the Title of being the eldest living man in the neighbourhood. The title was bestowed upon him from the Working Committee of the infamous Pallikunnu Temple Trust. The same temple in which Grandpa had served as Manager of the Trust for decades. For a person of his age that I ever known, have never seen anyone as strong as him who would have the guts to walk to office from home to and fro ( a distance of 5 km ) esp during times of Bus Strikes. Such a God-fearing and Devotee of Sun G0d he was, that he was blessed by the Gods to live upto 93 yrs of age without any traces of Diabetics or Heart-related problems.
Lately, he has started showing some symptoms. Continuously vomit anything consumed. Unable to consume water and food. For the first time in his life, he was admitted to hospital. 2 weeks of observation, he was transferred to a more sophisticated Hospital - the PMCH. Doctors diagnosed the condition as a Pancreatic Growth that had obstructed the Esophagus. The growth has grown to such an extent that it completely blocked consumption of food matter. It was getting difficult for Grandpa to consume any food. And even Water. The only source of Food he was getting was in the form of Glucose Drips and Injections. Due to blockage of Esophagus, saliva and Bile Juices were getting accumulated in the Stomach, thereby causing suffocation and resulting in Vomitting. Sons and Daughters from far and near have been coming to meet their father. I and my mom had taken tickets to travel to Kannur to meet him and to stay at night-time as Bystander at PMCH. We travelled to Kannur on 20th Jan and returned from Kannur by the 5.20 pm Train on 21st.
During our visit and stay at PMCH, that night was a more peaceful night for him. He had slept more peacefully that the days before. Along with us, my Aunt PVN, had also overstayed at the Ward to provide moral support and confidence to my mother. In the morning of 21st, the doctor advised to take him for few more detailed checkups. Later towards 4 pm, the news had come from the doctors that very few chances of recovery if he were subjected for an operation. The risks involved were that he was too old for such a kind of operation and that his body was too weak bcos he hadnt taken food for almost 2 weeks. The doctors said it was too risky to operate on him under influence of Anesthesia bcos they feared he might not wake up from Sedation. That too bcos of his age and current health conditions.
Anyway, my mom and myself returned back to our home on 21st. Dad had come to pick us from the Railway Station.

T minus Paparazzi Act (July 20th)
July 17th - Thu :
can find my cuz bro JN online who informs me that the Acer Notebook ( handed over to him the previous day by myself) has been fixed. All that errors has been due to some registry clashes from the AV program. Information regarding the same gets passed to ma company's Executive Director and I arrange to collect it from JN's home straight after work.
Meanwhile, I get to know that another cuz bro who had gone to India for vacation is currently outstation. Been gone on a Pilgrimage tour to SriMookambika Shetram (Karnataka), Uduppi Temple (Mysore), Parassini Temple(Kannur) with newly wed couples and youngen family members. Seems mine and JJ's attempts to contact my cuz bro end up in vain.
July 18th - Fri :
Another Friday comes by. Which is most suitable for devoting for more leisure time at office, less work and better pay.
Another suitable day to read all long emails, clearing desktop, downloading songs and software patches, transferring files to USB memory devices.
I try out Bricopacks from CrystalXP.net and this theme seems to make my Windows PC faster during run-time.
July 19th - Sat :
One of my orkut friend has come out with a new Blog for A collection of malayalam poems. Their first blog being Kanikkonna.
July 20th - Sun :
Its been almost a year since I have seen Sam Common. (Try translating that name to Malayalam to get his real name). I see that he is online on Gtalk with a pleasant news that he is back from India after his marriage. The only time I have seen him was during 2007 Onam Celebrations.
Later that nite, I visit JN hoping to have a grub from there. I get to have a chit-chat with Muh, who was been one of my good friends in college. With whom I have lived for about 2.5 years at our abode VWAKIF. Through him, I come to know that I am a victim of a Paparazzi propaganda spreading around in USA since almost a year.
At this moment, I recall that one of my best friends from Sem 1 of college was an active inhouse Paparazzi publisher.
I wonder if he has been involved in Princess Di's death or many other incidents at college.
NB: Skillset required to be Paparazzi author
{ ability to write articles on bits of paper in the most smallest font readable by human eye }

"New Community Movement " - July 16th
Today is July 16th.
At the Safety Meeting at office, the Project Director describes about a revolution that took place in Korea between 1970 and 80's. It was the New Community Movement.
So what is special about this so called Movement ?
The New Community Movement, also known as the New Village Movement or Saemaeul Movement, was a political initiative launched by former South Korean president Park Chung Hee to modernize the rural South Korean economy. The most significant aspect was spreading orange tiled houses throughout the countryside to replace tradition-bound straw-thatched or choga-jip houses.
I wonder if this movement has got anything to do with the roofs in Countryside of Korea being Orange or Blue.
During the speech and in connection to New Community Movement, the PD has given advice and instructions to the whole 100+ team members to love our Site Area and maintain a clean and safe work environment. This is first time at this site that such a movement is going to be implemented. Three (3) teams are formed and each team has to traverse a definite route at the Worksite, thereby removing debris to create a safer, clearer, friendlier, work environment.
This activity is time consuming and there goes 2 hours of early morning productive work.
NB : Such activity will be conducted on a regular basis. I think its gonna be scheduled every 15 days. Expecting the same for August 1st.

Holiday Planning
July 15 - Tue :
I come to know of certain things during my conversation with peers in Q8. Which may be noted as follows:
1. They still use Johnson & Johnson baby products for bathing. Cant find anything wrong with that, cos they still look like Cute & Oversize Babies, with all that baby-fat.
As for me, i don't remember buying any of those products ever since I gained knowledge.
2. Some of our seniors from college, who are working here in Q8, says their work timings are bad. They say " have to work from 8 am to 5.30 pm and then sometimes have to stay back for some work .... usually reaching home around 8 pm "
When I am working from 5.30 am to 7 pm ...
So whose timings are bad now ? Let them decide.
After a period of 2 years, I am able to catch up with my cousin bro's wife residing in Kochi and get to know about her sisters and their families, how they been doing during the last 2 years. Last time I seen them was at my cousin bro's marriage.
Thinking of planning my vacation this year for Onam. Have to meet a whole lot of relatives and friends.

T before July 15
July 12 - Sat:
I see that TG - an old friend from Kuwait - whom I had recently seen during last year Onam Celebration is online in Orkut. From her profile I notice that she has been committed. So, I take some time to get to know whats been happening lately.
She reveals that her fiance is from the Tharakan family and works in Chennai. So I change to investigative mode and trace out the Ezhupunna Tharakan from her list. She gives an ID match.
Later, from my good friend PSG, I come to know that Jibby the Oracle Specialist has left this desert land couple of months back. Its not been too long yet, since he left only in Dec 2007.
Around lunch time, I visit JN's place and collect the ICV movie CD. I also say that I will return it ASAP. So, I go home and after my lunch, I begin to watch Disc 1 of ICV. By the time its 3 pm and time for me to get going for Evening Session of work, I manage to complete Disc 1 and also 25% of Disc 2.
While back at office, I take some time off during my work, to consult a few friends about placements in the medical industry in kuwait for 2 of my known friends.
After my days work, I take a very early dinner and continue to watch the rest of Disc 2 of ICV and around 8.30 pm, I think of returning it to JN's place. When I reach their building, I come to know that they are not there. So I head back to my room, and take an early sleep too.
I see my roommate JJ dress up and go to office at 10 pm. Has a PowerShutDown to do and seems our RHLC friend will be accompanying him.
July 13 - Sun:
In the morning, I see JN online. I tell him that I been to his place the prev evening. But no one answered the door. So he tells me that he had left with family for shopping and also had an Arabic Dinner ( a treat for the Child ).
Before I go home for lunch, I see my Aussie settled friend SM is online and get to know few things from her. She tells that she has gone shopping to buy some postcards, greeting cards, letter pad and envelopes - in this Digital Era. Esp bcos her husband is in Egypt, she says she has to spend her time looking after her daughter Mikaila and also sending handwritten letters and greeting cards to her few good friends in USA, India and Middle East. Now thats interesting. Handwritten letters and cards are definitely more touching than sending electronically.
I see HTT online just 10 min before I leave for my lunch, and come to know that T&HT hav seen the 1 Way Ticket already. Rating : Not so good , No Story.
At about 6 pm, I see that my little Cuz from UAE is online. Come to know that he is no more a Game Freak. He has shifted to softwares. Things like Windows Blinds, Skin Editor, Swish Max, 3DS, Dreamweaver are the kind that he likes now. And of cos, GPS Maps that can be used on his dad's new Symbian mobile from Nokia - the E90 Communicator.
On way way back from office, our little Mazda Minivan meets with an accident.
All of us are stranded on No. 30 Highway, waiting for the Police to arrive. And after he comes, we get the Yellow Ticket and asks us to go to the nearest Police Station.
I reach home 90 min later than my usual time. Even had to walk from the Cop-Center to my residence. I see that my roommates are busy relocating the Satellite Dish to the next building. The building owner has just announced that he is going to construct two more floors. And all tenants are requested to clear their satellite dish from the terrace, which is directly above ours.
Anyway, my plan to visit JN's place to handover ICV is in vain. Maybe tomorrow then.
July 14 - Mon:
Its a dusty day from morning.
At 8 am, I see our RHLC guy online and he says he was at office since Sunday nite. And he is tired. Needs rest. Well, I guess he will have to wait till 3 pm , if he needs to do that.
At half past 9, I see that Child is online. Been seeing online presence for more than 1 hour now. But no response until just now. Come to know that she is been chatting with her friend without having her breakfast. I compel her to take her bread n butter before its too late. And off she goes.
Today, I stay in office, not possible to go home for lunch. As the company vehicle is in workshop after the previous day's accident. I'm stranded at office, and I stick to eating Digestive biscuits this afternoon.
At 1.30 pm, I see JN online and I tell him about the previous day's incident and also tell him that I am sorry, cos I'm not able to return the movie CD yet. He says its okay and that I wouldnt have seen them the previous night as they had gone out for movie - the 1 Way Ticket. I thought somebody already mentioned its got no story. Now, why would they see it ? Well it was a sponsored event by one of RJN's friend from Dubai.
At 8 pm, its still dusty.
Not going anywhere today. Rather stay at home.

T minus { Meeting BIM & ... }
July 8:
I see AT and SM online, who been missing on Monday. Not spoken to them since Sunday July 6. Exchange info abt happenings in kuwait and family. And get along with work.
Having Nothing much to do 7 PM, I decide to visit my brothers place.
So, I arrange for an early dinner at home and then head to their place as decided earlier.
July 9:
I come to know that Child has had an interview, which she fared well. But willl decide upon it only by end of month. the Child still awaits more interviews.
July 10:
Child spends time, waking up late, at abt noon time IST. Chats with friends, Watches TV, continues to spend time until RJN reaches home after work.
July 11:
Another Friday and a complete rest day. Wake up early, earlier than usual. No need for setting up any alarm for Friday. Plan to have a haircut at around 10 am.
And start off the Friday routines just like everyone else. Browse TV. If nothing good, then snap on the music system. Time flies until its past 9 AM. And, enter our cooking operator.
Just 15 min prior to 10 AM, not-so-good news arrives. Water has run out. Stuck at home without water on a Friday. And all chores come to sudden halt. Even then, JJ and our eldest friend at room, Mr KMV decide to go to Vehicles ES-kirab Yard at Amghara.
Roam around there, reach back home at 2 pm. Take a late lunch at 3.30 Pm and a small nap.
I wake up to see a sms from BIM saying he is coming over to meet me with an unmentioned but old friend. No clue who it is.
Instead of waiting for him, I decide to go to JN and abt 2 hours later, I get call from BIM that he is in town. So, I hang up with him and the un-mentioned friend for 2 hours and head back to JN's place for dinner.
Head home at 2230 and to sleep soon after.
P.S. : That unmentioned person is an old School mate from ISK, last seen in 1996 March.

T - { Welcoming the Child }
July 5:
Little did i know that the office timing has changed. The 4.5 hrs lunch break has been cut short to 2 hours. Its been a sign of relief for the TCN colleagues around me, 'cos they will be getting more OT ( 4 hrs unlike previously 1.5 Hrs ). Getting OT is what a few friends of mine despises after coming to this foreign land.
No wonder its widely accepted saying "Envy in the eyes of the Beholder".
July 6:
After lunchtime, I come to know of the changed work schedule from BJ and TK. But I am not ready to accept it. That will spoil my lunch time...
Cos its always, health > money.
Also come to know from JN that I've to go to aiport on Monday to receive a guest ? Rather a relative !!!
July 7:
As usual, I arrive at my work place, and b4 i start my work, I head to the PM, to seek special permission to leave early. And so, he asks why. Damn that. But I like to keep it straight forward. For I say - an important family member is coming to Q8, and ought to go to receive at the airport. PM agrees, commenting " If its someone special, you can go ... "
But CCM is doubtful about the work progress in such a case. I give assurance to complete usual target of 20 sheets before leaving office.
Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock, .... Clockwork starts and continues.
Dont see my friend AT or SM online.
1730 Hrs - Handover daily report to CCM. Surprised to see Target Achieved as promised in the morning.
Flight schedule to reach 1930. Have to leave from home at 1820. Have to leave from office 1745. But here I am, at 1750 still at office, waiting for official transportation to reach the Main Gate. Stranded there, waiting for the Private Unauthorized Taxi Driver whom i arranged from the previous night at the Party. Ah, he reaches at 1800. I think am gonna be late, wont be able to go together with JN and family. But I get a grace period of 20 min on top of earlier schedule. Oh, thank God.
ID-check on passenger : " Never seen before ; Only heard about since Nov 2007 "
Known Nicknames: Nothing known about the person except likes to be called "Child". (Child alias Kutti)
Relativity : The Only Sister of JN's wife.
Flight landed 10 min before TOA. After almost 45 min standing at the Airport, we welcome Child alias Kutti - JN's new home member and all head back home.
Dinner at JNs' comes in from nearby restaurant. Just a veggie cuisine. Supplemented by 1-day old curry prepared by lovely SiL (Mrs RJN).
Past 10.45 pm. Walk home is only a 5 min deal. Sufficient time ahead for a restful sleep.
