AXE Man

-



(I couldn't get the Indian version!)
Not expecting much, I just dialled the number for fun, they had all add flashing 09987333333, and boy was I in for some raunchy surprise or what?



My call was answered by this husky voice calling herself 'Tanya' and what followed was a seducing act
Imagine a hot Blondie, in sexy voice talking to you (Total movie effect)

"Hi AXE Man, this is Tanya. You can win a ipod to a dell computer AXE.... Man..... Do you want win one? Press 1"

I immediately pressed 1( I may just win for him and surprise him).
"Axe Man, you like me don't you? Let me wake up for next 5 days and the at the end of 5th day you can win " I followed the instructions. and the alarm was set for 8am every day for next 5 days".

My 5 mornings were followed by a call exactly at 8


"Wake up axe man, its me Tanya. Come on .... axe man.wake up" "Hi did you miss me? Axe man, get up now..." "Hey Axe man, did you have a dream about me..."

Those were fun mornings! I am not sure what exactly is their marketing strategy and how exactly do they plan to gain, but men are sure in for a treat :). Don't believe me, try it yourself!

I didn't win anything, no surprise there, but I am glad I called that number ;) LOL.

Matlab Kya?

This is what happened, actually has been happening for two days now! Yesterday. I parked my car, I usually call amma on my way to the reception and once i am in ladies room, I call Liz, 'See u in cafe'. Thats my routine. Instead of calling amma, I called Liz and told her I'll see her in a bit! After our usual chat and fun breakfast,I got to my cubicle. Later that evening "Arpita mein aaj jaldi jaa rahi hoon. Aap chaloge?" "haan chaloo" And just when I thought I was ready to leave, call it sixth sense or the usual (Yeah the same one!) feeling, I knew my car keys were not in the handbag,and I was right! My keys were not be found! "Arpita, aap nikalo, keys nahi mil rahe hai!" Keys,where are the keys? Reception "Hi Poonam, Anusha! koi key mila since morning! I cant find my car keys yaar!" Then, I called Liz "Hi, I cant find my keys!" Even before I could complete, I could sense that I had got her worried! really worried! She w...

Leading interior designer Saakashi, shares her lover story with us today. "It was just meant to happen! I couldn't have asked for a better life partner" As narrated to us, this one is from her to all our viewers! Read on. "Vikas, woh laadka smart laag raha hai" That was me, looking at this guy is blue jeans and grey round neck T. Hadn't seen him arnd earlier. We had a pact, I spot the pretty ones and he helps with the handsome ones LOL! The same evening, "Guys, lets go and play TT" (we had just finished our assignment) most of my team members played well,I wanted to learn too! There he was again! Playing TT with my team mate Rakhi. He stole a glance at me(girls always know it!) We had a common link now. Next day, there he was, again (Coincidence hmm?) I had Jeffery Archer (he he he). The rest of them played with him, while I sat on the bench pretending to be serious reader. Day 3: Same time, we were finally introduced, " Hi, I am Swayam...

A Sweet Gesture

I wanted to write about this the same day! Here it is a week later. The other day, someone happened to read my blog.I have been using this space to brood over his absence, bask in my achievement and just rant about life and all.Today,I am going to share a very sweet experience that came my way all because of this blogging. I am not a very friendly person in the first meeting, I take time to know, share and make the other person comfortable in my presence. There is this someone, who I have spoken, for the most part of it, so far ,only our internal messenger, while he started the conversation, after the usual acquaintance I shared this non existent blog with him. Life went on as usual. The other day, he pings me " Hey, why don't you join me and my wife over for breakfast.You come around the same time when we do". I took me a minute to realize that he had read "@ life w/o him".I was speechless actually wordless (messenger!). Well I did accept the offer :). We haven...
