The "Rock" Show

Each of us comes across incidents which we think over and just can't stop laughing. I have many such incidents which I remember but the one that stands out happened during my first year engineering.

Our college till that time had not had single "Rock show" which was surprising as other college's in Bombay used to always host such a mega event. The reason for that was the authorities of the institute were very conservative and of the opinion that "Rock show" play a very strong role in disrupting the smooth functioning of the college.

During those time we had a cultural department which used to take care of the activities. So the representatives of the of the cultural committee gathered courage and went with a lot of skepticism to ask the Head of Department the permission for the rock show.

Here are how the events turned out

Representative of CC - "Sirr..uh..we are thinking of hosting a "ROCK SHOW" in December"

A gulp, followed by a silence of 2 minutes ... the other 3 members trying to think now we are going to be blasted


HOD - Hmm..that's a good thought..

A sudden surge of blood filled with happiness and surprise flows across and then comes the statement that has lived life long with most of the students of the college

HOD - Few of the "Rocks" you can use from the Geological department and but where will you get the other rocks for the show
Then iit was extremely difficult to manage a straight face, but with all the courage we looked at each other, asked for more time for research, left his room and burst into a stomach aching fit of laughter.
That incident stands out as the most humorous incident of my life and has always been a topic to share a laugh whenever we friends meet.

Well all said and done what is a life when there is no humor in life ;)
