We have seen much rain and thunder these days in Surat.

Would it have something to do with the success of 'Chaac de India'? We wonder.

Lord Chaac, like all Gods, is sensitive about usage of his name. SRK & Co. shall repent in Mayan hell, where the Chaac sings 'Aashiq Banayaaa..' through his long pendulous nose.

As much as I like our ex-president for the great things he has done, including funky hairdos, making nuclear bombs and writing books(in decreasing order of greatness), this post is not about his vision for the superpower that India would be in 2020.

There are certain quaint connections though. He loves the youth of the nation. And I love them even more. Indeed, I am a huge fan of them. They rule. (Wow. It feels good to inflate the ego!). And this is about them.

This is a 'Vision' of '20 20' world cup finals as soaked in by the highly evolved, intellectually superior, all powerful and magnificiently sublime life forms who reside in the hostels of NIT, Surat.(Seriously, this does feel good!)



The Match. House-full.
We won.
The discussions would no doubt follow.....and the game would be torn apart into little pieces and put under a microscope.
Awards Ceremony. House-notsofull.

Every great story has a certain someone in pain. MNH is our man. Firmly seated cross-legged he quietly contemplated his misfortune. He missed the last ball.

The pain.

I know the photos are not good. Also it does no justice to the actual joyous chaos, seconds into the victory. But in my defense, the superior life form that I am(Really, this is so good. I am getting addicted to it), I was actually taking a video which captured the event more juicily.

Meanwhile, the Indian in Mexico, is still in the lead after round 11. He won thrice. Things are looking good.

Can you blame them? Even I used to fight over cartoons. More so when my grandmother wanted to see some serial instead, the actresses of which, were selected solely on their ability to cry.

Only I was 9 then and didn’t burn stuff, kill people, arrest them or fling expletives at Cartoon Network for insulting dear Unicorn, whom I so dearly worship. Nor did I tell them to stop demeaning those aliens, who had so generously given me my superpowers.

I just let them draw whatever they wanted to.

In the dangerously cricket infected times and regions we live in, may I point you to an Indian winning elsewhere. It might irritate people how I even mention chess when I should be talking about kiwis, tigers and kookaburras. But I am not a huge fan of animals. Much less of birds. I do like chicks though. But of a different kind.

It pains me, just as it does SK, how the media hugely disregards chess. Especially when Anand seems to be on the way to winning the World Chess Championship at Mexico. He has won twice, and is in the solo lead now.

P.S. The games are webcasted live here.

Life has a way of throwing questions at us which we might not want to answer, or have no idea how to. The skill to survive in such times could be life-saving.

This being an art form, can’t actually be taught. Everyone has their own unique style. But the key is in saying unrelated things for sometime till you see the confused expression on the questioner. If he tries to pull out his hair, then you are doing quite well. You might even be named one of the masters.

Definitely, the best way to get good at the technique is to learn it from the masters.

In India(master BP Singhal) and Abroad(video below).

Celina Jaitley has landed herself a new job. Its has got something to do with those pyramidal mammaries, is what I hear.



Anyway, we all know, from her previous splendid work, about her undying devotion to the roles she takes up. Rumours are that her overwhelming dedication to the new job, makes her want to become a 'Mummy'.

Anyone wanting to help her in this noble endeavour is requested to contact her soon, as the 'Openings' are limited..

Update: She has yet to come up with the right guy. There is still hope. Who could have guessed the drawbacks of winning sex appeal polls..

(I know this is a pretty old issue. But then so was this post. Its just the usual case of the laziness catching up with my fingers. So, I decided to post it anyway to get things started)

Orkut should be banned. It can be used to spread terrorism, start hate groups and such like. One would think that mankind would stop its own destruction after unleashing upon the peaceful world the phone, postal system and e-mail and thereby taking away precious lives. But we never learn, do we? We continue to destroy ourselves by starting such ‘social’ networking sites.

Whoever raves about free communication being good and encourages it obviously has a grave mental problems. He may ramble something about sharing information and maintaining friendships. How could he even bother about friends on Orkut when he could die in communal riots any minute?

Google personifies hypocrisy. Do no evil. Well, why then do they offer such destructive products like Google search, Blogger, g-talk and Orkut, all of which enable all anti-socials to come together and kill others. They should just stick to more non-evil businesses like incense sticks, cotton candy, rosewater, white skull caps, soft toys and cuckoo clocks?

Indeed lets go ahead and ban all Google products, phones and mobiles too. And while they are at it, they could also censor mail and TV as well. Let us stamp down on all the ways those communal rioters and terrorists can communicate. Let us give peace a chance..

P.S. Of course this is sarcastic. Whoever thinks otherwise is either an idiot or a Shiv Sainik. Or maybe and even more likely so, both. I am a huge fan of Google and am thankful to FSM that such bans aren’t in place. And I think the Mumbai police are fools for filing a case against Orkut instead of Shiv Sena, who created nuisance by breaking cyber cafes and violent beating up of the owners.

I always say that any non-academic pursuit gains force during the tests season. So, with my mid-sems all set to start tomorrow, I got too fed up of my other blog, among other things that I am fed up of, and decided to start a new one. Let the posts begin..
