Memories Past

The inning brought a lot of the pain back for me. Like any other Sachin follower, i was happy yo see him back at best..but it also brought one of the pet rancors of mine to the fore. For a person of such ability and class, he should really be on the winning side more often than not. people like Adam and Gilchrist, Mcgrath , Warne etc are lucky in this regard and they would not easily recognize the pain of being one of the greats and not winning even 50% of the games that you play. Course in some respects, Lara's case is even worse.

Abstractural Ineffeciencies

Sometimes, i feel that the abstract nature of the blog sometimes inhibits my blogginess as the need to maintain standards warrant abstract blogs. And as any abstract blogger will tell you the demand for a certain level of abstractness is sometimes a demand too demanding consequently making the blogginess suffer.

What's the solution you ask? I say, lower the abstractural demands and delve and deliver on the need for blogginess. This kind of behaviour should be a prime example of the need for the modificatgion of standards, ofcourse after proper reprioritization and rationalization. So in future, the blogginess frequency may increase along with the level of abstraction in the ensuing blogposts.

Convergence

Sometimes, MIS reporting requirements couple with the need of the monthly reporting format help you generate great things.

Bloggers Risk

When one of my friends experessed his recent inability to blog in recent times, apart from the normal thought that "Dude, this is not 'recent' inability to blog, it is a recent case of self awareness", satirically* enough, i also thought about how it is never a problem for me.

* Ironically i am trying to start the trend of abuse of the term Satiric just like Ironic

Nick Game

Spiff is a great nick. Course, as it requires a great sense of perspective on the germane issues of the day and the current issues. He can put current issues in perspective in a germane manner. Of course it also matters that the infamy of his fame has been hieratically dissected.

Talking about Germane, Germany has to my mind been one of those countries that guide the vision of the issues pertaining to the ideal form of government. Course this kind of talk though likable takes one away from the issues of the day

All this also suggests to the fact that the palliative use of hieratical adverbs leads to a sort of collusion between the commercialized culture of the proletariat and those at war against the plebian resurgence of the popular rhetoric.

The thing that matters

A google chat with a friend.

me: mornin

Friend: jai

me: howz u?

Friend: fine

u

me: i am fine. THank you

so

any opinions on the state of Indian cricket

how do you rate

Friend: this was bound to happen

me: MSDs performance in the last press conference

Friend: i think its all dhoni's fault

me: hmm

should dhoni have been more amenable to

Friend: india had a set batting lineup

me: reporters ideas

?

Friend: with sehwag n gambhir

me: hmm

so

you think

Friend: raini at no. 3

rohit sharma

uv

dhoni

pathan etc

me: DHoni should have stuck to his guns and talked rudely to reporters

Friend: he mingled with batting line up

me: hmm

Friend: by promoting himself to no.3

me: that is true

Friend: raina lost confidence

and his form too

to me raina was the key player in this WC

me: hmm

Friend: he was even more imp than uv

becoz of his form in ipl

me: oh

Friend: once he flopped

things were inevitable

and opening with rohit sharma was a blunder

me: hmm

i think

DHoni

Friend: he was the best no. 6

me: should have shown more tact

especially

after times came out

with the rift story abt sehwa

Friend: but that hardly impacted the performance

me: so

i think

tht set the tone for DHoni's performamcne in the whole tournament

almost all the later press conferences got affected

Friend: performance against SA was the worst

did u see hw pathan got out

me: I dont think pathan was called for any press conference

except

for

the tour defining

group walk out

Friend: r u talking abt press conference performance or on field performance

me: :)

Its all same

SUn

if you allow

can i post this exchange in my blog

Friend: hmm

sounds good

me: good

good part...hamne koi gaali nahi di..so we can post it uncensored

A Poem

Over the woods in a snowy evening..

Well its summer here...but anyway..

once upon a time comes a time....and you have to choose among crosswords...which book would you choose...

the one that goes with your personality or the one that doesn't. Or do you go for non fiction..

hmm..its tough..

End of an era!!

Surely one of these great  feats in modern sports leave alone tennis. Is it going to happen. Nadal has just saved on of the 5 match points..you never know.

Moving on

Go  Mumbai Indians

Instant Analysis

Following comes to mind:

1. I think congress gained cos of NREGA and farmers loan waiver. Its not good economics but its atleast good politics

2. There seems to be a welcome trend of consolidation of National Parties in UP, WB etc

3. At some level, there seems to be a failure of leadership opn Advani's part to motivate his state leaders. 

4. I think a very good model for BJP would be to go for Bihar Model. Rebrand themshelves as a centre right economic party but give strong signals that social amity will be maintained and social security for the extremely backward.

Moo Point

This is what happens when u have shadow communists in ur think tank :)

A Riddle

Once, i was riding on a truck. Open convertible truck that is. Now the truck had to pass under a very low bridge. But the truck with me was a few inches too high. I thought a lot and decide to use my large sharp nails to slice off the top two inches off the truck. But, then a kid suggested to take the air out of the tyres. That's called good lateral thinking....coming to thinking, there was still a problem..my head was too large..and i thought a lot on a possible solution and dint seem to help at all....

and then i stopped thinking.
