PRADEEP JOSEPH

Pradeep from Ettumanoor had the distinction of being bestowed with
the maximum number of nicknames; but one that really stuck on was
"Aama" ( "Aama chettan", with respect ).

In his initial days at Priya, Amos was famous for his  "superb" rides
to Chatthunnippara, only to realise soon that it was he who was being
taken for a ride by "Shibu, Shibu". But these two "mystery men"
have remained close pals, which is "really a miracle, man!".

His sleek turned into a Maruti  (My car, Super car) but Aama Chettan
didn't change a bit. Neither did his Glamour C, which was even
rumoured to have been commissioned by the Armed Forces for
counter-insurgency operations !

"Ortho, Osho, Olam, Oil" - this was once the guiding mantra of this
occassional  "parachutist". Although some of the O's have been kept
in suspended animation, nothing can quite dampen his quest for the
Big O - Olam; and at Priya, he will always be the  OLAMBOY !!
