  • Weekend Roundup

    This one promises to be a less than an exciting weekend.

    I have already spent my day today doing grocery shopping and completing some banking tasks. Also, spent the later half of the day watching “When Harry Met Sally” and the Turkish GP Qualifying. With Ferrari and McLaren taking the top spots again, it promises to be a cracker of a race tomorrow.

    I need to get my Bike repaired. It suffered quite a bit in the chutt accident that I had before I had gone home. Race in the afternoon, and then I would need to shop a bit for my sisters for Rakhi. I have kind of decided on a book for one, but cannot think of anything for the elder one? Choosing gifts is such a pain. Any ideas?

    Meanwhile, I have also decided on ordering “Godel, Escher and Bach” and “A Short History of Nearly Everything.“

  • But it rained

    Chanced upon this beautiful piece from somewhere.

    rain.
    it rained.
    I
    fell.
    it
    rained
    I
    loved.
    it
    rained.
    I lost.
    it
    rained.
    It
    loved.
    I
    rained.
    rain.

  • I am back..

    .. from the short vacation, full of eating and sleeping and doing nothing else. I did click some snaps from the aeroplane, and while the look nice on the LCD preview, I do not know how they have actually turned out. Will check and post if possible.

    Meanwhile, I have unsubscribed from the Freakonomics blog as they have turned to partial feeds after their so called partnership with New York Times, a crime. I suggest you do the same.

  • Off for a week

    I am going home for a week and won’t be blogging then. I promise to do a review of Chak De India once I am back.

    Cha!

  • Rocking at the Oval

    The Indian team is already on a roll in the third test at the Brit Oval.

    Imagine India winning test series outside the subcontinent without any century, without any significant contribution from Rahul “the Wall” Dravid (this is the one off thing in a long long time). This is so interesting. Everyone has done his bit and Dhoni has played magically to take the English bowlers to the cleaners.

    Even Kumble has come up with a half century. Keep rocking guys!

    Update: Hats off to Kumble for his first Test century, the most faithful soldier to Indian cricket.
