Kind Lawyer

One afternoon a wealthy lawyer was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass. Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate. He asked one man "Why are you eating grass?"

"We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat grass." "Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you", the lawyer said.

"But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under that tree". "Bring them along," the lawyer replied. Turning to the other poor man he stated, "You come with us also." The second man, in a pitiful voice then said, "But sir, I also have a wife and six children with me!" "Bring them all, as well," the lawyer answered.

They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limousine was. Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the lawyer and said, "Sir, you are too kind.
Thank you for taking all of us with you."

The lawyer replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place, the grass is almost 1 metre high!"

His & Her Diary

Extracts from HER & HIS diaries...

HER DIARY

I asked him what was wrong - he said, "Nothing."
I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset.
He said it had nothing to do with me and not to worry.
On the way home, I told him that I loved him,
but he simply smiled and kept driving.
I can't explain his behavior; I don't know why he
didn't say, "I love you too."
When we got home, I felt as if I had lost him,
as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore.
He just sat there and watched TV; he seemed
distant and absent. Finally, I decided to go to bed.
About 10 minutes later he came to bed.
I decided that I could not take it anymore, so I decided
to confront him with the situation but he had fallen asleep.
I started crying and cried until I fell asleep.
I do not know what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts
are with someone else.
My life is a disaster.

HIS DIARY

Today, India lost the cricket match again.

DAMN IT.

AXN Alaaa Re!!!!

At last.............the government has finally lifted the ban on entertainment channel AXN, six weeks after it was penalized for showing 'indecent' programs. On January 17, an order was passed for the prohibition of transmission or re-transmission of the satellite channel with immediate effect, up to March 15 throughout the nation.


The channel, however, submitted a prompt apology after it was blacked out and the ban was lifted early. Imposing the ban, the government said the channel was guilty of telecasting programs such as World's Sexiest Advertisements (Golly!!! I dare not give a hyperlink for the words bolded, fearing another ban..... houhouhou) that are against good taste or decency and are likely to adversely affect public morality.

AXN has always been one of my favorites. All this while, I considered myself to be a slaphappy 25-year old bloke who has the right to decide what is right and what is wrong, what is obscene and what is not, but the aforementioned article proved me wrong. Well... I wouldn't call the hoardes of ultra-thin models sashaying around on the ramp until their hip bones start to ache, broadcasted 24/7 on some darn fashion TV channels as obscene or vulgar, nor would I dare to call the midnight or late-night masalas aired on TV as obscene or coarse. Why? Because I just have a sense of feeling that the rights of this 25-year old chap as to decide what is obscene and what is not has been snatched..

Frankly speaking, I have got no qualms or any sort of grude against the portrayal of fashion. For some, it might be considered as a taboo, as these are all very delicate issues. It all depends upon the common public what to see and what not to see. What's your take on it....

Et Aliae....


TeamWork!!!


Set Your Goals BIGGER

The Japanese have always loved fresh fish. But the waters close to Japan have not held many fish for decades. So to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever. The farther the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring in the fish. If the return trip took more than a few days, the fish were not fresh. The Japanese did not like the taste.

To solve this problem, fishing companies installed freezers on their boats.They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea. Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer. However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen and they did not like frozen fish. The frozen fish brought a lower price. So, fishing companies installed fish tanks. They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. After a little thrashing around, the fish stopped moving. They were tired and dull, but alive. Unfortunately, the Japanese could still taste the difference. Because the fish did not move for days, they lost their fresh-fish taste. The Japanese preferred the lively taste of fresh fish, not sluggish fish.

So, how did Japanese fishing companies solve this problem? How do they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan?

To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies (still) put the fish in the tanks. But now they add a small shark to each tank. The shark eats a few fish, but most of the fish arrive in a very lively state. Like the Japanese fish, "Man thrives, oddly enough, only in the presence of a challenging environment."

Challenges are what keeps us FRESH! Instead of avoiding challenges, jump into them. Beat the heck out of them. Enjoy the game. If your challenges are too large or too numerous, reorganize the challenge, team up, be resourceful and do not give up. Failing makes you tired.

If you have met your goals, set some bigger goals. Once you meet your personal or family needs, move on to goals for your group, the society, even mankind. Don't create success and lie in it. You have resources, skills and abilities to make a difference.

Put a shark in your tank and see how far you can really go!

Rugby Training!!

Warning! The following footage features stunts performed either by professionals or
under very strict control and supervision. Accordingly I insist that no one attempt to recreate or reenact any stunt or activity performed in this footage!



Venue: Terrace, ala.. my place
Rugby Trainer: Ahem...... no comments.
Trainee: The Pomeranian next door... (aka Rocky)

Some of the footages were edited towards the end for its graphical nature, as the poor old trainer was pummeled by the so-called Rocky. Upon further investigation, it was found out that the Pomeranian apparently lost its cool after being addressed by the wrong name. Har Kutthe ka naam Tommy nahin hota.

Power of Deduction

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camping trip, set up their tent, and fall asleep.
Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
Watson replies, "I see millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?"
Watson ponders for a minute. "Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Timewise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, it’s evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?"

Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks. "Watson, you idiot, someone has stolen our tent."

Admit it

Admit it..... you feel like doing this to at least



one person everyday...

How Friendship Loses Grip?

Both friends will think the other is busy and will not contact thinking it may be disturbing. As time passes, both will think let the other contact. After that each will think why should I contact. Here ur luv converts to hate. Finally, without contact the memory becomes weak. They forget each other. One fine day, they will meet and blame one another, till then time would have whizzed past already.

So never let the time go, so Keep In Touch With All Ur Friends

It doesn't matter ur friend is a girl or boy, always u be the first to initiate.

  • You are already late, and your key is missing, you wish there was 'find tool (ctrl+F)' in life!

Never Miss First Opportunity..

A young man wished to marry the farmer's beautiful daughter. He went to the farmer to ask his permission. The farmer looked him over and said, "Son, go stand out in that field. I'm going to release three bulls, one at a time. If you can catch the tail of any one of the three bulls, you can marry my daughter."

The young man stood in the pasture awaiting the first bull. The barn door opened and out ran the biggest, meanest-looking bull he had ever seen. He decided that one of the next bulls had to be a better choice than this one, so he ran over to the side and let the bull pass through the pasture out the back gate. The barn door opened again. Unbelievable. He had never seen anything so big and fierce in his life.

It stood pawing the ground, grunting, slinging slobber as it eyed him. Whatever the next bull was like, it had to be a better choice than this one. He ran to the fence and let the bull pass through the pasture, out the back gate.

The door opened a third time. A smile came across his face. This was the weakest, scrawniest little bull he had ever seen. This one was his bull. As the bull came running by, he positioned himself just right and jumped at just the exact moment. He grabbed... but the bull had no tail!

Life is full of opportunities. Some will be easy to take advantage of, some will be difficult. But once we let them pass (often in hopes of something better), those opportunities may never again be available. So always grab the first opportunity. .

Who Let The Dogs Out!!

Just recently, my neighbor bought a new pet. I was awfully curious to find out what exactly it looked like. Expecting to find a harmless one, I was totally taken by surprise, for what stood in front of me wasn't some puny little dog, but a ferocious one that would even put the Rottweilers or the wolfhounds run helter-skelter.

It chased me all around the house frantically trying to tattoo my body with its vicious barracuda-like teeth. Never in my life had I run that fast down the road (luckily the National Games just concluded last Sunday).

Just for Gags

A True Software Engineer


MNC

A man joined a big Multi National Company as a trainee.
On his first day, he dialed the kitchen and shouted into the phone: "Bring to me a cup of coffee, quickly!"
The voice from the other side responded: "You fool; you've dialed the wrong extension! Do you know who you're talking to?"
"No" replied the trainee.
"It's the Managing Director of the company, you idiot!"
The trainee shouted back: "And do you know who YOU are talking to, you IDIOT?"
"No!" replied the Managing Director angrily.
"Thank God!" replied the trainee and put down the phone. :-)

Take this

A married man left from work early one Friday afternoon. Instead of going home, however, he squandered the weekend (and his paycheck) partying with his friends.

When he finally returned home on Sunday night, he ran into a barrage of epithets from his wife. After a couple of hours of nagging and berating, his wife asked "How would you like it if you didn't see me for a couple of days?"

"That would suit me just fine!!" the man said.

Monday went by, and the man didn't see his wife.
Tuesday went by with the same result.
Wednesday went by with the same result.
Thursday, the swelling went down a bit and he could see her a little, just out of the corner of his left eye.

Cool Gadgets

Another MP3 player? it is not an MP3 player.

This one from Global American Technologies is an ultra-cool sunglasses frame with, yes... an MP3 player. The Fio MP3 player sunglasses as they are called, feature "3D stereo" sound via ear buds on each side of the frame.






Wait a minute, we are talking about a combo-appliance. Well, for soothing your eyes, it has polarized UV400 shatterproof lenses and a shockproof, flexible nylon body. It's as good as a Ray-Ban.

The retail price ranges from $200 to $400 as per the memory capacity.

My Wish List

Why don't we ask for something like this from our company???



At least after dinner...

Hail, ho! Doordarshan

Well.... are these guys keeping track of my blog? It was just the other day where I vented my frustration following the Nimbus-DD spat, and out pops the reward!!!!

Jokes apart, Doordarshan has decided to telecast the fourth ODI live, no NLTs and other hassles. Read more on it. Kudos to DD-Nimbus. It happens only in India...

Double Whammy!!!

Cautionary Statement: Statements made regarding this post has got little or nothing to do with the player's performance or character and thereof the author of this blog is not subject to condemnations, black eyes, bullying or any sort of verbal confrontations expected from hoardes of die-hard Ganguly fans back at office. By chance, if any of the aforementioned occurs, I would love to direct the issue to Abhilash, as he is the one who urged me to post this clipping.



A rare instance where Ganguly runs for his life (as we all know how good he is in running between the wickets). Though he was unfortunately run out, my gut feeling tells that he was running with grit and determination all the way to World Cup 2007... tsk-tsk

Yabadabadoo!!!!!



At last, I can breathe a huge sigh of relief. Mission Accomplished. After more than a month of gaming to the core, I was able to draw curtains to GTA: Vice City. Unquestionably one of the greatest PC games of all time. Heart-thumping action, vivid gameplay, clear-cut storyline, phenomenal sound track, and above all one can virtually explore the environment created in the game. Absolutely stunning. Any gamers still left out of the party, get yourself locked and loaded. Couldn't resist posting the trailer of the game, check it out....

An engineering masterpiece!!!

Water Bridge in Germany.... What a feat!




Six years, 500 million Euros, 918 meters long.......now this is engineering! This is a channel-bridge over the River Elbe and joins the former East and West Germany, as part of the unification project. It is located in the city of Magdeburg, near Berlin. The photo was taken on the day of inauguration. To those who appreciate engineering projects.....

HOW TO STAY YOUNG

Baaaah, got nothing to do with VLCC.......

  • Throw out non-essential numbers. This includes age, weight, and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.
  • Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down. (Keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches!)
  • Keep learning: Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain get idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's!
  • Enjoy the simple things.
  • Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath. And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and lots of time with him or her!
  • The tears happen: Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. LIVE while you are alive.
  • Surround yourself with what you love: Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
  • Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
  • Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.
  • Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

Come on India Dikhadho, Duniya ko Hiladho....

Triple Sundae..




It was a Triple Sundae... or should I call it Triple Sunday for cricket fans yesterday. It was an icing on the cake, but this time with a cherry on top of course.



The cake - South Africa vs. Pakistan, the former crushing the latter by 10 wickets.

Icing - England vs. Australia, England snatching a surprise series triumph, with rain playing spoilsport.

Cherry - India vs. Sri Lanka, so neaaaaaaaaaaaaar..... yet so far. The guests won by 5 runs. Well.. I wish not to further comment on it.

Try finding the odd one out of these three matches? Still wondering..... while the first two matches were telecasted live on Star Sports and ESPN resectively, the big match was NLT... near-live tran..... ehmm... near-live telecast or deferred telecast with a 7-minute itch. I nearly ended up having a sweet argument with my dad..... hehehe. Me, sitting in another room, at the edge of the seat, biting my nails, tension looming around, with India requiring another 13 from 9 balls, and in comes dad with the news, "Game Over Sonny". He was in fact sitting in living room simultaneously catching action of the match as well the news channels (NDTVs and the likes).

The Verdict: The funniest part is we were not able to catch the live action of our very own Indian team, whereas the overseas matches were telecasted live, thanks of course to Nimbus-DD telecast rights spat. It happens only in India... sigh!! In conclusion, something is better than nothing.

P.S. A small piece of advice if you wish to. By the whiskers of Kurvi-Tasch, I implore you fellas, for the remaining two matches, make sure you are glued on to DD only. You wish to have the dose of real thrill and excitement of the match, then scrap off the news channels {updating the scorecard from time-to-time} from the TV channels roster. Maybe you can tune it and set it back once the match gets over. Well.. I did it.. how abt ya...

Belated B'Day Wishes Junior B



This birthday (February 5th) would have been special for Abhishek Bachchan. After all, it was going to be his last one as a bachelor.

Abhishek was in Rajasthan, shooting for his film 'Drona' and Amitabh flew down to be with his son on this special day. Mom, Jaya Bachchan and fiance Aishwarya Rai were however, not able to make it. The duo however, made it up by receiving Abhishek at the airport when he returned to Mumbai.

Also waiting at the airport was his big white birthday gift, given to him by his father. Click here to find out what Big B had in store for his son.
