As DILEMMA(d-ee-l-e-m-eh) accrued for the NOMADIC

Middle of the day it was, I was very much busy trying satisfy my machine, as always surrendering my neurons to its deadly torture. Jason rushed to me, saying somebody just called him a NOMADIC. Quite curious he was - "yaar, look what exactly does it mean? what do people think of me?"

The person who called him so is actually a good acquaintance of him. And it had been more than a full day when he was referred to as nomadic, and he was more curious than vexed for what could this horrible word possibly meant? n hence goes the title. He made me open Browser, Ctrl+T, www.answers.com, n there we waited for the famous dictionary wisdom to come to our rescue......................

Meanwhile, as if it is the human nature, just to destruct the monotony, i was traversing through other opened tabs, n we saw this tab - it had answers.com already opened, showing definition for the word DILEMMA (d-ee-le-m-eh, and not d-e-l-eh-m-eh). Jason said "Amelio, angrezi badah le apni, kaam mat kariyo tu...". Ha Ha Ha..., there i was, laughing. Told Jason "tell u wt, somebody just told me dilemma is pronounced d-e-l-eh-m-eh, and not d-ee-l-e-m-eh as i used to think. And, by George, u know who told me this?" Ha Ha Ha... + Ha Ha Ha..., this time he accompanied me with his share of laughter. "But i had it somewhere in the back of my mind, n so i was just confirming it here using the phonetics"

Then suddenly, at the very moment, everybody started yelling - hey, Internet is not working, where the hell are Sys Admins? Also, the great Boss came out of his cabin - Why isn't internet working? what m i paying Sys Admins for? And i couldn't find Jason around next moment, he was gone, joining Gordon in the server room to get Internet connection rectified.

15 minutes later, internet was working fine, n Jason, sitting beside me, stared in disbelief towards monitor that had answers.com opened, showing NOMADIC = moving from place to place. He stood up "KHANA-BADOSH, so this is who i m?" Half grinning, half angry he left my so-called cubicle.

Another 15 minutes, i got a phone call, person on other side said "you told jason that NOMADIC means khana-badosh? u tell people lies?". I clarified that i didn't tell him so, it was his own interpretation [but i still think his interpretation for nomadic being a wanderer was right, maybe it doesn't concern essentially the food, it's basically about no abode permanence.] Also, i did want to tell the person on other side that dilemma is actually pronounced d-ee-l-e-m-eh, but...

Having worked for an hour or so in a row, implored my machine for a small break. Also, jason was here - "Amelio, u know wt, nomadic doesn't mean khana-badosh, instead it is used to refer to a person being a WANDERER. And because of nature of my work, i m always moving from here to there in office. So, im a nomadic." It was as if somebody gave him a pain killer right after giving him a punch on face, and pain had vanished. But i was happy that he was out of confusion now. I said "that's good jason, let's go for smoke".

That day jason explained to me the meaning of nomadic at least a couple of more times. So, jason now felt it justified for himself to be called a NOMADIC n i wasn't under any DILEMMA(d-ee-l-e-m-eh) anymore.
