Ind Vs Aus 3rdTest

Hello World !!!
Cricket - Ind Vs Aus 3rdTest - oh we are losing this one big.
With that the series is lost. The Aussies are winning a series after nearly 30 years in India.
It does not mean that we did not play well ->
Some factors -->
1. Aussies were more prepared than us.
2. Absence of Sachin.(but they did'nt have Ponting-one might say; but its a fact that nobody can replace Sachin..look how Clarke n' Katich played in Ponting's place)
3. Bad luck it rained out the 2nd test.

Anyways congrats to the Australians -
they were well prepared N' their new players played extremely well
esp. Michael Clarke, Simon Katich n' Justing Langer(not young).

Football - aww MY favourite team Arsenal lost to Man Utd. in the EPL.
their unbeaten run of 49 matches has come to an end.
I could not see the match - but they were some referree's blunder i read.
Anyway they will be some competition in the EPL.

Cheers !!! CIAO !!!

A joke --->
Free Drinks Shamus and Murphy fancied a pint or two but didn't have a lot of money between them, they could only raise the staggering sum of 50 pence. Murphy said, "Hang on, I have an idea." He went next door to the butcher's shop and came out with one large sausage. Shamus said, "Are you crazy? Now we don't have any money left at all." Murphy replied, "Don't worry - just follow me." He went into the pub where he immediately ordered two pints of Guinness and two glasses of Jamieson whisky. Shamus said, "Now you've lost it. Do you know how much trouble we will be in? We haven't got any money!!" Murphy replied with a smile, "Don't worry, I have a plan. Cheers!" They downed their drinks. Murphy said, "OK, I'll stick the sausage through my zipper and you go on your knees and put it in your mouth." The barman noticed them, went berserk and threw them out. They continued this, pub after pub, getting more and more drunk all for free. At the tenth pub, Shamus said, "Murphy, I don't think I can do any more o'this. Me knees are killin' me!" Murphy said, "How do you think I feel? I lost the sausage in the third pub."

Doctor Terminology

Hello World !!!

Just a little manic monday !


Doctor Terminology(What doctors say, and what they're really thinking: )

"This should be taken care of right away."
I'd planned a trip to Hawaii next month but this is so easy and profitable that I want to fix it before it cures itself.

"Welllllll, what have we here...?"
He has no idea and is hoping you'll give him a clue.

"Let me check your medical history."
I want to see if you've paid your last bill before spending any more time with you.

"Why don't we make another appointment later in the week."
I'm playing golf this afternoon, and this a waste of time. --or-- I need the bucks, so I'm charging you for another office visit.

"We have some good news and some bad news."
The good news is, I'm going to buy that new BMW. The bad news is, you're going to pay for it.

"Let's see how it develops."
Maybe in a few days it will grow into something that can be cured.

"Let me schedule you for some tests."
I have a forty percent interest in the lab.

"I'd like to have my associate look at you."
He's going through a messy divorce and owes me a bundle.

"I'd like to prescribe a new drug."
I'm writing a paper and would like to use you for a guinea pig.

"If it doesn't clear up in a week, give me a call."
I don't know what it is. Maybe it will go away by itself.

"I'd like to run some more tests."
MeansI can't figure out what's wrong. Maybe the kid in the lab can solve this one.

"There is a lot of that going around."
My God, that's the third one this week. I'd better learn something about this.

Have a nice weekend !!!

Hello World !!!
Have a lovely week-end !!!
Cheers !!!

Listening to :

KENNY ROGERS - LUCILLE
--------------------
In a bar in toledo across from the depotOn a barstool she took off her ring

I thought I’d get closer
So I walked on overI sat down and asked her name
When the drink finally hit herShe said I’m no quitter
But I finally quit living on dreamsI’m hungry for laughter
And here ever afterI’m after whatever the other life brings
In the mirror I saw him

I closely watch him
I thought how he looked out of place
He came to the womanWho sat their beside me
He had a strange look on his face
The big hands are callous
He looked like a mountain
For a minute I thought I was dead
But he started shaking His big heart was breaking
He turned to the woman and said
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille

Four hungry children and a crop in the field
I’ve had some bad time Live thru’ some sad times
But this time your hurtin wouldn’t heal
After he left us, I ordered more whiskey

I thought how he made him look small
From lights of the bar room to a rented hotel room
We walked without talking at all
She was a beauty, but when she came to me
She must have thought I lost my mind
I couldn’t hold her, the words that he told her
Kept coming back time after time.
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille

Four hungry children and a crop in the field
I’ve had some bad timeLive thru’ some sad times
But this time your hurtin wouldn’t heal
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille

Four hungry children and a crop in the field
I’ve had some bad timeLive thru’ some sad times
But this time your hurtin wouldn’t heal

Hello world !!!
Dasara holidays from tomorrow.
Dasara is great in Mysore.
I went twice to Mysore for Dasrara games.
It was really nice. Like a mini Olympics - with all athletes
staying, sharing , eating, drinking together
and of course competing in the games.
There is the opening and closing ceremonies.
It puts in a sense that all are equal - nobody is small or big.
Each has to compete and prove who is the best.
We had gone once for Football and other time for Hockey.
We were runners up.
Happy Dasara to all...

Cheers ...

Here's a litle Beer prayer ;)

Beer Prayer Our lager, Which art in barrels,
Hollowed be thy drink.
I will be drunk, At home as in the tavern.
Give us this day our foamy head, And forgive us our spillages,
As we forgive those who spill against us.
And lead us not into incarceration,
But deliver us from hangerovers.
For thine is the beer, the bitter and the lager
Forever and ever,
Barmen.

Veerapan

Hello World !!!
Tuesday morning nothing much happening.
Weather in Bangalore is lovely-its cold n' blisterry.
Its raining everyday for the last 3 days.
Veerapan is dead. Oh ! at last...
Its been really a long wait..
Cant imagine a forest bandit hiding for so long,
without being traced in these modern times with all
the sophosticated technology at hand.
But again I guess lotsa politicians are involved in protecting him.
No wonder they did'nt capture him alive.
Or they would be lotsa revelations.
But I guess Veerapan was a Robinhood of our times.
Looting from the rich to feed the poor.
Ciao !!!

PLUCK YEW!"

Hello World !!!
Another Week end gone ...
Spate of accidents continue...
Its been 4 weeks N' 4 accidents ...
My friends have met up with ...
N' I was involved in two of them...
Phew Im getting scared to ride a bike nowadays.
Meanwhile Arsenal continue their good unbeaten run in the English
Premier League. What a great side this is...
The 2nd Cricket test match b/w India n' Australia is washed out. too bad.
It was poised for a thrilling finish - as India needed 215 runs to win on d last day.
It could have been anybodys match. The series has been great - with both teams
well matched in all departments of the game.
So long folks !!!

Did U know this -->

Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers. Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English longbow and therefore be incapable of fighting in the future.


This famous weapon was made of the native English Yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as "plucking the yew" (or "pluck yew"). Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, "See, we can still pluck yew! PLUCK YEW!" Since 'pluck yew' is rather difficult to say, the difficult consonant cluster at the beginning has gradually changed to a labiodental fricative 'F', and thus the words often used in conjunction with the one-finger-salute are mistakenly thought to have something to do with an intimate encounter. It is also because of the pheasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that the symbolic gesture is known as "giving the bird." And yew thought yew knew everything.

::: Kites (Patang) :::

Hello World !!!
Hows all U lovely people doing ???
October - I love October ...
especially coz we used to get our Dasara/ Diwali vacations in October.
N October meant d season of flying kites.
I really was mad about kites.
Make d "Manja"- its d thread used t ofly the kite with.
Manja is made by applying a paste mixture containing fine ground glass(soda bottle or tubelight) with saras(gum) , color and lots of other other extracts on the thread. So when we fly the kites we try to compete with the other kites by interwining the manja tied to the kites in the air. The kite whose thread is broken is the loser. I really used to trip on kite flying.
The entire month of October used to be spent making manja, making kites n catching kites.
Phew... nowadays kids are not much interested in flying kites.
By the month of October was over my complexion would be black coz of all d time spent in the sun. Kites kites kites.... Wiating to fly one soon.

Currently listening to :
MOTLEY CRUE - Without you
Without you, there’s no change

My nights and days are grey
If I reached out and touched the rain
It just wouldn’t feel the same
Without you, I’d be lost
I’d slip down from the top
I’d slide down so low
Girl you’d never, never know...(pre-chorus)
Without you, without you
A sailor lost at sea
Without you, woman
The world comes down on me(chorus)
Without you in my life
I’d slowly wilt and die
But with you by my side
You’re the reason I’m alive
But with you in my life
You’re the reason I’m alive
But without you, without you...
Without you,my hope is small
Let me be me all along
You let the fires rage inside
Knowing someday I’d grow strong(pre-chorus)(chorus)
I could face a mountain
But I could never climb alone
I could start another day
But how many, just don’t know
You’re the reason the sun shines down
And the nights, they don’t grow cold
Only you that I’ll hold when I’m young
Only you...as we grow old
