Neela chaayam veluthu pOchu, dum dum dum dum
Dhoni vesham kalanju pOchu, dum dum dum dum

Even though i am sad that India is out of T20 WC, i am happy that Dhoni's stupid strategies and his form is questioned by the media.

11 runs of 23 balls against WI, sending R Jadeja against Yuvraj and more than everything asking England to bat first in the crucial match.

Dei Dhoni, you are not Captain Cool, you are Captain Fool....

The whole yesterday was like what they call in cricketing terms "Few very high-scoring overs, and then a wicket falls" kind. I had a very good lunch, came out of the hotel, and it was raining like hell. Once the rain stopped, my bike wouldn't start. It got wet in the rain. I had to push the bike a few meters with Saran sitting on it to make it start.

I dropped Saran in the house and went to meet a friend. Again, when i started back to home, rain was pouring like anything and my bike didn't start. This time my friend took the honors. She pushed my bike a few meters to make it start.

Time was 9 and any sane person would have headed home straight. But come on, it was Kalyan's farewell treat. I reached the pub all drenched and shivering. For once, there was no fiery discussion like what happens usually whenever me ramak and kalyan meet. Moreover, the music was too loud to have any discussion. After a couple of beers, we went for "tequila tequila"(Read it like Shakira shakira in hips dont lie song). Wow, it was too good that we went for 2 more shots. Kalyan started dancing. Yeah, then what, i too joined him. Couple of other guys also started dancing.

And, you all know that, yes,, my bike didn't start when we decided to leave. This time the bike was adamant, i pushed it, ramak pushed it, but it never started. "piss off guys" was the answer that my bike gave. Kalyan gave this excellent plan, I hold his shoulder and piggyback his bike. It was the worst thing to do at that time of the day, at that road when it is raining. Ramak told he is no way part of this plan. I told him, let us try a few meters, if it doesn't workout, we will drop the plan. But, ramak didn't agree. By that time Kalyan already removed his T-shirt and ready with one end of the T-shirt in this mouth and offered the other end to me. Kalyan, you are the man to look for in crisis time. Ramak would say, the crisis in the first place would be there because of Kalyan.

Finally, we left ramak and the piggyback thing worked out for around 150 meters. We were waiting in front of the hotel and ramak came there walking with a "unnayellam mithikanum da" kind of look in his face. As i said yesterday, "it was worth it machi". The keyword here is kick.

P.S> Ramak, i am waiting for a post from you with your version of the story.

The Man from the Earth
Super movie. The movie had less than 10 characters. The whole movie was shot in a house. Its not about whether you like the movie or not. Its not about whether you believe what is said in the movie or not. Its just the movie watching experience that matters.

Oyyale.. Action movie should be like this. How was part 2 and 3? Have anyone seen them?

Random.
Today is my most satisfying TT day. We were playing doubles. In the middle of the game the guy from opponent team asked me why am i not hitting shots. I told him that i have back pain. Eventually, we lost the match. I was leaving the TT room and a guy who was waiting for the next game, said that my team lost the match because i did not hit shots. Man.... i feel like God, I forgive them all.

All soldiers alert. Billa remake has released in Telugu. This is the first movie that i have watched alone in a theater. Not bad, the movie was good. They have followed the same technique used in tamil. Shoot a movie for 1.5 hours and run most of the scenes in slow motion and make it a 2.5 hours movie. appuram, indha ponnu Anushka, enna superA act pannuthu pa. She took it from where Nayan left in Tamil Billa.

Ramak, here is the scene which we were talking about in KVKD. ( if at all you remember what we spoke that day)

There was a person who was really frustrating me everytime by saying a certain thing which was a mere assumption of that person btw. The person knows that i/we really get irritated when that was said. Me being me, i kept ignoring it. I really got angry once when it was said, but i decided to let it go one last time. "You did a big mistake... you rubbed the wrong side of me... I will make you regret for what you said" and what not, punch dialogues were flying left and right in my mind. But i just gave a dry smile and kept quiet.

My idea was, next time the person says that, i would shut the person's mouth for ever. I know speaking of what would do that. I kept waiting for the person to talk about that particular thing/assumption. But, the person never talked about it. I even tried initiating a conversation on a related note and for a change this time that person ignored it. Maybe, the dry smile gave the person enough indication that i will really get mad the next time. kadaisila enna vadivel mathiri "dei sandaiku vaada, naanum rowdy thaanda"nu polamba vitutaanga...

Now, the person might never repeat. That is what i want. But, had i yelled at the person and then the person stopped saying that particular thing, i would have been much more happy. Some things got to be done the hard way. So, "when you wanna yell, yell. Dont wait"(courtesy: Tuco)

Talk about variety. The album Thalapathy has it all.

And you, Happy birthday again.

When i was a kid, my request to buy something for me was never declined. Ok, 9 out of 10 times it was not declined. The belief was that i would ask for something only if that is extremely necessary. Unfortunately, that was the truth as well. Wait,.. this was the story till i joined college. After i joined college, my mother ran out of reasons to not give me money to buy something.

A one day picnic was arranged in my school when i was studying 7th standard. Me and 2 of my friends decided that each one will bring 100 Rs on the picnic day. The night before the picnic, I asked my mother for 100 Rs and she told that 100 will be too much and 50 will be more than enough. The way it was said suggested that it would be useless to argue.You remember that 9 out of 10 time thing. This request fell under 1/10. I decided that i will manage with 50. But the shy kid I am, i was confused about what to say to my 2 friends. I gave it a long thought that night before sleeping.

Next day early morning i woke up and out of no where i decided not to go to picnic. I lied to everyone in my house that i am having a heavy headache. So, we came to a conclusion that i would continue to sleep and would not go to picnic. Looking back, skipping that picnic would go as one the most stupidest decision i have ever taken considering how silly the reason was.

If you are wondering why i am writing a decade long story about a picnic, I am going on a trip to Thailand tomorrow. Actual post was suppose to have the trip info alone but suddenly the school picnic thingy popped up.

Advance Happy Christmas and Happy New Year guys.

50th post. Congratulate me guys.

I am fond of catchy quotes. Today, i was reading some quotes and ended up in this link. http://www.wordinfo.info/words/index/info/view_unit/2988
There was one not-so-catchy quote "The dictionary is the only place where divorce comes before marriage." I thought of adding some more to the list. Here is what i could come up with,

Dictionary is the only place where

• delete comes before new and free comes before malloc.
• There is no Hate but Love between India and Pakistan.
• Success, Fame, Promotion, Weekend and whatnot everything is few distance away.
  
• Fuck is never spelled as f**k.
• There is no Manager standing between You and Promotion.
• Man is not behind Money.
• Politician, Terrorist and Bullshit are not synonymous.
• even the most complex things cannot be questioned. eg. existence of God, Life after Death and more importantly the classical 'Chicken-Egg which comes first' problem.There is answer for everything.
  
• Blog is just yet another word.

Ok guys, enough of mokkai. get back to work.

I was on a booze spree last Saturday night. The fun started around 10 pm and ended around 4:30 am next morning. There was this guy,one of rizwan's team-mate who accompanied me. I was arguing with him about different things for the whole night. It was around 3:30 am and there was a discussion going on about Manchester United vs Chelsea. I and Ramak were arguing for Man U. I was arguing just for the sake of arguing. But the Chelsea guy was very seriously arguing. After a while i just wanted to cut the crap discussion and start a normal conversation.

Me: What does Chelsea mean?
Guy: Chelsea means organization,..(pause) co-ordination, discipline,....
Me: No, not that. What is the literal meaning of the word Chelsea.
Guy: That is what, Chelsea means organization, co-ordination,....(he was in no mood to give up)
Me(To myself): Ok boss,.. I surrender. You win.

Now i am wondering how many folks would have surrendered to me in the past unable to bare my repeated ramblings.
