Since I am working
in the field of security, characteristics such as insecurity,
pessimism and possessiveness dominate my personality both
professionally and lately, personally. I tend to apply my professional
strategies into my personal life thus making me a more than typical
Cancerian. I am currently practicing not applying work fundamentals
elsewhere.
I practice
intellectual sarcasm, loyalty,
honesty (since 2003..) and have an assuring nature. I believe in
'Elimination of Variables' and
GE's Six Sigma
approach. They call me pessimistic and I call it analyzing all
possible outcomes of a given scenario. While it is true that only one
of the possibilities would occur, I like to be guaranteed of the
outcomes by considering the 'worst case scenario'.
Back in sophomore
year, I used to have
long hair
(John Petrucci {rocker}, not Albert Einstein {geek}), but once I got
my Ibanez axe, I dumped my local axe along with the long hair. Then I
dumped
my Ibanez axe
after a few
guitar
recordings
and
videos
and ran in search of greener pastures in spite of a low GPA.
Joe Satriani,
Steve Vai and John Petrucci are my guitar gods. Unfortunately,
only few of my countrymen can shred like them. The only two Indian
musicians that inspire me are Warren Mendonsa (Zero, from Pune) and
Baiju M (Motherjane,
from Kerala). These esoteric guys can go head to head with Joe
Satriani, in my opinion :-)
My favorite TV shows are Boston Legal, The Apprentice, The King of
Queens. I aspire to be a mix of
Denny Crane,
Donald Trump and
Doug Heffernan.
