Stuwart Engelmann was having a tough day at work. Besides three server crashes at the Orange County Police Headquarters, half a dozen computers and laptops were dumped in his room by cops. Computers collected from various crime scenes which Stuwart would have to religiously and meticulously scan for clues if any and pass them back to the respective investigating officers.
It wasn't his day at all. He had hoped while driving to work in the morning, that he would be able to leave early so he could see the Chinese opera with his girlfriend. It didn't look like it was gonna happen.
Wearily Stuwart picked up the first laptop and checked its tag. It was from Detective Garcia and he ...

In my various valiant attempts to kill time at work, I stumbled upon these games which had a very desi element to them. Hopefully all of you out there will get a slice of the life of an Indian taxiwallah trying to park a Fiat (or Ambassador, whatever strikes your fancy), a much humiliated donkey throwing his shit around (literally!), or your typical Bollywood star trying to sneak a quick jhappi (trans: kiss) from the local item girl before the paparazzi catches him.
WARNING: Some of these games can end up being very addictive, so please do not come crying to me if you play nonstop for 2 hours, and are caught by your boss or supervisor, only to ...

Thursday 6pm. The house of Jane Redwood, Lake Forest, California.
The bedroom was dark with just a candle burning infront of the picture of Jesus Christ.
Jane was kneeling on the floor, her forehead touching the ground. The intense crying had her body shaking.
"O God... please forgive me for not having loved back my mom... AAAAAA... please forgive me dear Jesus... aaaa... please forgive me... please forgive me... please don't... please don't let me die... please don't let me die..."
The man sat on a chair next to her. His face was devoid on any emotions. He had been sitting there for less than a few minutes.
He moved next to Jane and caressed her hair as he moved his hands on ...

It was the summer of '99. I lived in Australia along with my divorced mom. The school I went to had many students from Indian, students - who's parents had sent them to Australia to study, since I was told there is a dearth of good schools in India. I soon became fast friends with PimpleTop and then one day when he suggested that I come with him to see his hometown in India during our summer vacations... I readily agreed.
But that is not the reason, I, Jioz... am standing here on my toilet seat ready to dive into it and commit suicide. The reasons are much intense, one that shook my life and as it will yours O dear ...

A woman went to her psychiatrist because she was having severe problems with her sex life. The psychiatrist asked her many questions but did not seem to be getting a clear picture of her problems. Finally he asked, "Do you ever watch your husband's face while you are having sex?"
"Well, yes, I did once."
"Well, how did he look?"
"Very angry."
At this point the psychiatrist felt that he was really getting somewhere and he said, "Well that's very interesting, we must look into this further. Now tell me, you say that you have only seen your husband's face once during sex; that seems somewhat unusual; how did it occur that you saw his face that time?"
"He was looking through the window at ...

Lottery is big business in the USA, probably much bigger than in other countries. In one shot you could become not just millionaire but a multi multi millionaire.
So are you one of those who buys a lottery, a lotto, a scratch ticket every week? Are you thinking that one day, you will win and all your problems will be resolved?
Think again.
A few studies on the recent lottery winners was conducted. These included winners of lottery that had fetched them a few million dollars to close to a hundred million.
Shocking Fact.
Almost all have them lost all their money in just a few years. Tragedy struck their families. Horrible things happened.
Is it a curse?
