CHAK DE INDIA!!

Alright....we have,finally,after a looong wait spanning longer than Titanic's hull length,we have finally caught the kitty in the bag and earned a huge feather in our cricket-crazy caps.With more than a billion eyes on the men in blue,heavyweights like SRK ,Vijay mallya watchin the show and heartbeats going faster than Federer's shots,the match sure was a tantalizing concoction of adrenalin and emotions meters running at a break-neck speed!






Google


















I will not go much into the gameplay nuances as most of us are already bombarded with them thanks to euphoric and hysteric explosion in the media around the world,with fathomless depths of analysis and psychic cerebral analysis of what was going through Mahendra Singh Dhoni's mind to heart rate of Shoaib Malik at the crease,leave it to the media to do all that.......
But for us all that rests are the euphoric celebrations and cheers to the gallant opponents,the men in green who deserve a worthy oodles of appreciation too .Here are the brief T20 WC stats:
Batting - Total Runs
1 ML Hayden AUS 265
2 G Gambhir IND 227
3 Misbah-ul-Haq PAK 218
4 Shoaib Malik PAK 195
5 KP Pietersen ENG 178

Bowling - Total Wickets
1 Umar Gul PAK 13
2 SR Clark AUS 12
3 RP Singh IND 12
4 Shahid Afridi PAK 12
5 DL Vettori NZ 11

International Rankings
1 India 236
2 Pakistan 230
3 Australia 223
4 South Africa 209
5 Sri Lanka 207


It sure was a armageddon fight to a flawless finish and transcends India's ascent to the top Cricketing charts,a nice consolidation after the dismal 07 World Cup campaign that ended with several bucketfulls of tears ....and now ultimately with bucketfulls of joy..!
Hey,I better wind-up ,gotta blow the confetti around and crackers to crackle.....
All i say....CHAK DE ENCORE!!!

When highways become runways..!

So there it goes,ya are dreaded after a long day at work and you hear the rum-drum of an aircraft at some distance,nothing out of ordinary yes,but it get closer and closer ..so close that WHHOPPS it finally lands right in front of yr automobile!
I am talking about that vintage cessna World War 2 aircraft that made an emergency landing at a Wisconsin ,USA highway.,the aircraft was on it's way to an air show and a drag in it's hydraullics forced the pilot to land ,not on the runway or an airport but on a highway,the GMC that happened to be right behind the aircraft had a close shave.
Strange times indeed....wish I was the one in that GMC though.So next time you peek around the corner for a maneouver,on't be surprised to hear an aviator engine drone..!

SEVERUS SNAPE-Innocent until proven guilty ..or is it?!

He has a fan site devoted to his unconventional fashionista sense,he has a 2000 strong army on itrustsnape.com ,older laies are fascinated by the classic Alan Rickman,he was several podcast entities in his name,yes,I am referring to the man with the albino complexion,the mysterius fabled prof of the dark arts -Professor Severus Snape.
It's not old adage that we have always been fascinated with vilians,we are fascinated by the occult ,by vampires but few villians have garnered affection of collosal number of fans as that of Severus Snape,the sinisterly attractive prof of Hogwarts.A whole new army of Snape defenders are born today with the release of the final book The Deathly Hallows.With the needle of suspicion sharp on Snape's head and the fact that major characters will be going to the Tomb,all wild speculation is rife and is spreading around faster than J,K Rowling's pulse!
If there is someone out there wondering how I think Snape will end up then here is my bit of mind,I o NOT think that Snape is in league with Voldemort and no..no just if you are wondering whether I am a member of www.itrustsnape.com then no I am not.
He is in fact sharper in wit and wisdom than anybody else in Hogwarts and Voldemort,look how he slithers out of Dumbledore's murder .He also knows that Voldemort will never take him back ,thanks to many tasks he did that earned his wrath,I believe he is Dumbledore's ally no doubt and will do nothing to forsake him,he has his own bitter memories to contend with an he is playing role of a double-agent in the wizarding war,there just have to be million reasons as to why Dumbledore trusted him so much...we shouldn't forget Dumbledore saw through any sticky character an shoo-ed him/her off a broomsticks distance away.
Relax,Harry Potter purists ,shhhh...."the book whose ending should not be spoiled" will be maintained.
I will put my quill down now.....

Going POTTY over POTTER !

Hey there!
The wait has finally come to an end...ya can finally dispose that strike-off calendar that ya used for the countdown and manicure yr nails back again since yr chewing thanks to the wait has ..should I say..mercifully come to an end !
Yup,the DEATHLY HALLOWS is out and Harry is top in the list to die as well another major chracter will got to the Tomb.My best bet is...whops sorry no spoilers yet ,but I guess it has to be one of the trio ,Malfoy will definately be one of Voldemorts ranks but I have no doubt that he WILL NOT be the one to disarm Harry.It had to be a powerful death eater or who knows Malfoy and dad are rotting in Azkaban altogether! It's true Hogwarts is a void without Dumbledore an what bout Snape? Tell ya what,,,,more than Harry,I am eager to check what happens to Snape?Is he a death eater or not?Where will HE end up? What will come off of voldemort,what will happen to Hogwarts or what will happen to the wizarding world altogether !!!

Well....I will definately read the book ,in paper or virtual, but one thing is sure ,if we thought Hogwarts was a void without Dumbledore,then we better down gallons of Veritaserum and say that WE ARE BRAVE ENOUGH TO FACE UP TO HARRY'S DEATH!
I DARE YA !
A BOX OF KLEENEX ANYONE?! I will be having mine in hany just in-case!!

Happy witching hour ,muggles!
Time I put my quill down.

"Health is wealth"-An insider's account why wealth is health and health is wealth

We all have grown-up with constant cajoling by our mums/dads who fight an armageddon battle every night,coercing us to swallow down that squiggly,wiggly broccoli and gallons of milk,but we always see a reason fit enough and would prefer fight battles rather than gulp own our despicable blues with food.
I learned this a hard way today,after downing 2 manogoes everyday thanks to the luscious season going on here, a 'warning' heat ulcer that appeared in my oral cavity.As a garnish to this,I landed up with nausea and fever too,thanks to NOT the mangoes but soo many thoughts snaking through my mind,every morning nowadays seems to begin with one question: "What will it bring today,Sunshine or Rain?" ,I stare at the morning sun an assure my guts that the thing I am aiming for next month WILL come through,I have enough prayers addresse to it an believe it will come through,but yet I seem so close yet so far.....
But first I nee to take full accountability to my health,right now there are vials of medication besides me and that paracetamol will come in handy, but more than that,vials of motivation and faith n 'positive feelings need to be injected in me....I have my trusted buddy for that,...Mum.
