He can forget and be cute, but can you?

And you know you can’t be him - burrppp!

Problem

• Zorro is not a superhero.
• Zorro needs to remind himself of his to-do’s.
• Zorro is smart, so he uses his mobile phone to keep track of his to-do’s.
• But his phone too, is not a super-phone.
• It fails to remind him at times important.
• Zorro succumbs to his shell more often now.
• Zorro dies few years later in the grief of an unfulfilled desire of remembering everything:
• Never missing a doctor appointment
• Coming everyday with roses for his wife
• Buy the monthly “Cricket-Samrat”!!
