Paradox

Few centuries ago, a Law teacher came across a student who was willing to learn but was unable to pay the fees.

The student struck a deal saying, "I will pay your fee the day I win my first case in the court".

Teacher agreed and proceeded with the law course. When the course was finished and teacher started pestering the student to pay up the fee, the student reminded him of the deal and pushed days.

Fed up with this, the teacher decided to sue the student in the court of law and both of them decided to argue for themselves.

The teacher put forward his argument saying:
"If I win this case, as per the court of law, the student has to pay me as the case is about his non-payment of dues. And if I lose the case, student will still pay me because he would have won his first case. So either way I will have to get the money".

Equally brilliant student argued back saying:
"If I win the case, as per the court of law, I don't have to pay anything to the teacher as the case is about my non-payment of dues. And if I lose the case, I don't have to pay him because I haven't won my first case yet.. So either way, I am not going to pay the teacher anything".

This is one of the greatest paradoxes ever recorded in history.

Ride to Nandi hills

Last saturday I, Naveen, Karthik & Rohit went for a ride to nandi hills, almost 65 kms away from Bangalore. We started from Blr at around 6:30 in the morning and reached there by around 8. We went in three bikes. Naveen & Karthik in the Royal Enfield thunderbird, Rohit in his Honda unicorn and me in my Bajaj platina. Interestingly, this is the first time i took my bike for the weekend ride. The road was good and it was exciting to ride through the hair pins while going up the hill ( which my bike managed to do easily).

Once you reach there, you find Tippu Sultan's fort. Tippu Sultan constructed his fort here and used this place as his summer resting place. The climate was cool and as we reached the top, i found that there was nothing much except a temple and some good sceneries (and monkeys). If you are interested in photography and if you have a good camera, then you can go click around.

Riding down the hill was fun as we switched off the engine and were riding in neutral (except Rohit who was riding with his engine switched on). We reached Bangalore at around 12 noon.

Overall, it was a good experience. We enjoyed the ride, we enjoyed the climate, we enjoyed the place and were happy to know that nandi hills is a hill with a history behind.
