I believe that we make finest decisions of our lives on an impulse. Well at least some of them. And getting tattooed is one of them. Okay, hold you horses it isn’t myself I am referring to (I am quite content with the fours, at the moment) but a dear friend.

For months she had been lingering over the tattooed thought – fickle minded is what I tagged her as. But (last evening) surprise surprise, she narrowed in on her ‘the one’. And in matter of two hours her arm, a blank canvas transformed into an arty blend of black, blue and white.

Pictures tell a better story and here is a snippet of a friend’s journey into the world of body art.

Formula for a successful reality show? Simple - Hire a celebrity. But not just any celebrity, a Bollywood superstar. Really, it’s that simple provided you have the monetary means to do so.

And to mark their entry into the competitive Indian television industry, COLORS has managed to just do that. Box-office action hero, Akshay Kumar is all set to make his small parda debut with reality show - Fear Factor Khatron Ke Khiladi. If I am not mistaken, this is basically a revival of desi-Fear Factor, which once upon a time was aired on AXN and hosted by what’shisface Mukul Dev.

Screw the above and listen to this. apna man Harry is pissed. According to Daddy Baweja some super forces (Hint Hint: Aamir Khan and Co.) are hell bent on ruining his recently released film and debutant Harman Baweja’s career.

I quote thee.

Our collections are improving but it’s very disheartening that some people are trying to run the film down. They are purposely trying to do so but I don’t know who is behind this. Its sabotage, yes the film may be okay but it’s not so bad.

Super taakatwallas or not (or maybe it’s the revenge tactic of the androids for getting such a raw deal) but one has to admit Baweja Sr. is a mighty modest man. I mean seriously how many Bollywood filmmakers will admit to making an “okayish” film.

Reality check though: Baweja sir your film is not so bad. I completely agree. In fact it is ‘so bad x 2050’.

Undoubtedly the iPhone is one of the sweetest inventions in recent times. Well at least in my books. And I wouldn’t be wrong in stating, countless others share the same view. Released on 29^th June 2007 (in the US), in matter of weeks the world was gripped in its craze. I remember constantly eyeing eBay iPhone sellers, looking for that ‘one’ perfect deal. (The temporary trauma that came along with my iPhone package, let’s just say I still have nightmares about paperweight iPhones.)

But all that was then, iPhone is now old news. What is in the news however is its rejuvenated version – the iPhone 3G.

The 3G model is yet to be released (a week from now to be precise) and I know tons of folks who can’t wait to get their hands on this beauty. Yours truly included, I mean after all it does fall within my "all things sexy" category.

Besides all the new features such as the two colour options (Black/White), 16 GB option, 2 megapixels camera, 3G wireless technology, GPS mapping, App store and Microsoft Exchange, the most attractive bit of all is its marketed price; $199 for 8 GB model & $299 for 16 GB model. Now when converted into Indian rupees, the amount sounds easy on the ears and the pocket.

But if you go by this report you will realize things are not always what they seem, especially good things.

While the three other metropolitan cities of India had the Gay Pride, Mumbai’s non participation was definitely a subject of much debate and bewilderment.

I mean, if Delhi could have it, then how come the most recognized city on the Indian map, the city of dreams, the fabled city of chill and chic, didn’t?

‘Hypocrisy’ is the one-word answer I got when I posed this question to a Gay friend. Apparently, there is much infighting and lack of unity among the various Gay groups and NGOs in the city. The divides runs deep between the classes and the masses, and never the twain shall meet - or so he said.

Before your eyeballs pop out, let me rephrase this. Sex Bloopers that I’ve Heard Of from Friends. And since it is always funner to have a laugh at someone else’s expense, here’s to all of them who’ve been there, done it, and wished they hadn’t. And if you’re one of those sorry asses (pun unintended) mentioned here, don’t fret. No names have been given out. I have a heart after all.

6.The damn zip. And belt. Now this one, I’ve been told by many many. He wants to do it. She wants to do it. And they want to do it fast. But, they’re both wearing jazzy designer denims. And belts tied really really tight. Which take waaaaaay too much time to undo, unbuckle and unzip.

Result? Flagging… spirits of course… what did you think? Perverts! That’s why I say designer wear never gets you any-where.

5.They were on an abnormally high single bed pushed up against the wall and were mostly rolling about in a sad imitation of a Hollywood flick, when the most un-filmi thing happened. One misjudged turn and jack fell down (didn’t break his crown – thank god!), but Jill did come rolling after.

Talk about rollicking times!

4.Now this is a case of first time and the couple, being a set of enthu cutlets, was trying too many positions in one session. A lot of entangling of legs happened, and after all the pushing and pulling, the two found after much experimentation that sometimes, it’s best to keep it simple.

Too much josh and too little skill isn’t always healthy you see.

3.They were fast moving from first base to second, and things were only getting hotter. Then, the girl farted. A dry, non-smelly one, but a fart nonetheless. The friend however wasn’t repelled or turned off, instead, he was really impressed with the way she handled the situation.

What did she do? She Laughed Out Loud.

2.Sloppy kissing. Now this one even I can vouch for. There are the kissers. Then there are the French kissers. So far so good. Then, come the sharks, whose sole purpose in life seems to want to

a) drown you in their saliva b) chomp on everything that comes in their way: lips, chin, nose… teeth. c) be a pain in the neck, literally. d) muck up your hair, as if they’re searching for shrimps.

Moral of the story: Don’t even think about going second base with these buggers, coz hikkies are certainly not their cup of tea.

And finally, (enter at your own risk)…
