| BCCI and Indian players | |
| Check this out:http://cricket.indiatimes.com/articleshow/2005163.c msIt is amazing how shameless our Indian cricketers are. They are demanding a raise after the world cup debacle. Their excuse - we have only lost a world cup game, we haven't fixed a match or anything. Downright appalling. I'd say - we could ruthlessly can the following guys:1) Sachi...

| The Namesake | |
| Alright, my mind was piqued after a hiatus of 5 months. Too much latency huh? Saw this movie that all blogs and reviewers were raving about. I mean 'The Namesake'. For someone, who hasn't read Jhumpa Lahiri's novel, this movie will be a revelation. Quite a splendid rendition of a long book in 2 concise hours. But that is where my gripe with Mira...

| Paint my love | |
| As Michael Learns to Rock once crooned - Since you came into my life the days before all fade to black and white, since you came into my life, everything has changed. Ah - the tribulation of being a coloured person - neither white nor black - neither western nor oriental. I write this blog on the heels of my previous blog - a rant against ra...

| Racist Aussies | |
| If you're as avid a cricket fan as I am, you will doubtless have admired Australian cricket. Their cricketers can absolutely sleep-walk into any international XI. Their individual talents are breathtaking and as a collective whole, they are lethal as the cricketing fraternity has discovered. These admirable qualities however end on the field and pe...

| Lay off the President | |
| I wish there were no post in a democracy, wherein a certain figurehead would not be answerable to anyone. I refer to the Supreme Commander of our armed forces. Make no mistake. Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam is a wonderful human being. He was one of the leading contributors to our nation's nuclear programme. He is arguably the most popular President in Indi...

| Baap re baap | |
| Ever wonder, how many people in the world get such a headstart in life because their moms or dads made it big. If the child decides to pursue the same career as the parents, there are 3 possibilities:1) The offspring is equally or more talented than his/her parents and usually outshines them.2) The offspring is not as talented as the parents and si...

| Clemency for criminals | |
| It has always troubled me, when people in high offices plead clemency for criminals that deserve to hang. You all know what I'm referring to. I consider it a national shame that even our President entertains the kin of such folk. If the crime is as heinous as attack and murder of innocents in a megapolis or an affront as serious as an attack on...

| bin Laden dead? Bah - Humbug!!! | |
| If you've lived in the US, you will find a strange co-incidence with happenings in the world of geo-politics and the world encompassed by global terror. It's just a month and a fortnight away before mid-term elections to the Senate and the House are scheduled. Voila - comes the bombshell of bin Laden's death. Every time - Dubya's rating takes a dip...
