“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.”

Mismatch!

I have a car and a scooty. The car is preferred for longer distances and the scooty for local travel. The car and the scooty both lost their voice almost simultaneously. It began with the car whose horn got feebler and the scooty just stopped honking one fine day. Took them both to the mechanic, got em back.The funniest thing as now happened. My scooty now sounds like my car and the car sounds like a scooter !!

The former is good i guess, a stronger, formidable sound that causes people to make space...but its a pity to hear the mighty car sounding a barely audible peeep. It's like the huge lion who opened it's mouth for an almighty roar that would send shivers through the whole jungle but all it cud say was meow

I guess I need to show them to a better mechanic, one at a time though!

I know it's funny and hard to believe, a car's horn wont fit in a scooter and vice versa.. but this has really happened... there is an interchange of sound .. or are my ear's ringing!
