Black Magic Chairman

Satyam Chairman B. Ramalinga Raju, has sent a notice to SEBI that he is going to pursue a career in Magic (not to be confused with the band Magik, from Rock On. In this case he prefers to stand in the audience, and face the music)

He said he is really sad that he has to leave his company at such a crucial juncture, but he just cannot keep the world in the dark (any longer) about the amazing skills he has acquired and honed while at the helm of the IT Company. He has taken all the credit for skills acquired and refuses to share the limelight with anyone, with the possible exception of the auditors, PriceWaterhouseCoopers.

His first trick will be a relatively simple one, where he will conjure a rabbit out of a little girl’s ear. This is actually a combination of two tricks, namely conjuring a coin from behind a little girl’s ear and pulling a rabbit out of a hat. He has decided he will perform this trick in an open fair (Mela, if you will) where he will have easy access to hats and rabbits. So all he is going to do is conjure up the money and then buy her a rabbit. He said this trick will then be extended to conjuring a nuclear weapon as soon as they are available in the open market.

P C Sorcar has not taken too kindly to this as he is afraid it will mean a fall in business for him because our hero BRR (like a chill down your spine, I know!!) has easy access to technology whereby he can beam his performances across the country instantaneously. That is, of course assuming that the company is as widespread as it says it is in the Annual Report.

We hear David Blaine is thinking about suing him because walking on roads and random areas, and trying to scare the sh** out of people is his trademark style. But since BRR is still trying to hone his invisibility trick (disapparition for the Harry Potter fans), we are not sure if he can ‘appear’ in court.

In unrelated news, all journalists, headhunters etc. were sent an anonymous notice whereby any news item or job application pertaining to audit companies was to be published/advertised/pimped (where applicable), the term ‘Big 4’ is to be replaced by ‘Thankful 3’

P.S: For those who went through this random article and feel like it was pointless, thank you, I wasn’t sure I’d achieve what I set out to.

Here is something interesting though. Michael Lewis’ article on this fuck-fest called the financial crisis.
