No no no….I am not talking politics….not even the same Bush you guys think I am talking about….Its NFL draft day baby and I am talkin about Reggie Bush, who in school killed OU's hopes and now he is all set to come to our division ! To the division which has da Bucs,who have tamed the so called star athelete Vick for hmm…..three years now…and he is still learning…..poor dirty birds…..Now its time to tame the new star kid in the block…..who will be bruised…shutdown and will regret not having gone to a different division muhuhuahahaha…..so Bush, I know you are reading this (just wishful thinking), I've got three words for you…..suit up to be tamed…twice an year…every year…ah well its more than three words…but sometimes you need more than three words to get the message across clearly !
When will we learn? April 28, 2006

Humans – we claim ourselves to be superior to other living things on the planet…and one of the reason we give is that we are capable of making decisions by considering right and wrong, also we learn from studies performed by our fellow humans….I bumped into an article today in CNN which I thought was very disturbing and which defies our superiority among others…The article can be found here…its about not one..not two…but 400 dolphins were found dead on the coast of Tanzania….The most disturbing part of this news apart from the poor dolphins being dead is the cause of their death…Seems like the sonar that US Navy uses have been warned of such dangers and here is an excerpt from a previous statement that they had made -
"To avoid more significant harm, Navy officials promise to use shipboard observers and fish-finding sonar to make sure no marine mammals or sea turtles are within a kilometer of a sonar broadcast. Should a whale come too close, the sonar would be shut off, they say." – Click here for complete article.
So after making this statement few years ago, they kill 400 dolphins! As you can see the warning was not made a few months ago….it was made like 4 or 5 years ago…but then why didnt the Navy respect the facts and do something about it ! Also, this was not the first incident…they had already killed a bunch of sealife successfully earlier…..what is with the humans that make us so indifferent…we cant stop killing eachother and we dont let things that doesnt interfere with our lives alone either….so does this all add up to us being smarter than living beings with only five senses..? naah I dont think so….Addtional article about this can be found here

Atlast, we the people who love the bright red machine were pleased by its performance over the weekend…how many days and how many months have gone by without the sound of the air horns in the neighbourhood…but those days seem to be gone…atleast I would like to believe in it….I mean if you happen to see the race, you would agree that red had all the answers for the blue & yellow…it was a 2 seconds the other way last year and it was two seconds our way this year….thats all its about…winning and who better knows it than Micheal…I was in a dilemma wether to go to Indy this year…but now there is no thinking twice….cant wait to go and wave the big red flag ! also I am just glad that Button's car didnt blow up after the mishap in the pitlane…that would have scarred the amazing race for us Ferrari fans…Go red !
Innocence is expensive April 14, 2006

In.no.cence : Lack of knowledge or understanding; ignorance.
Ig.no.rance : The condition of being uneducated, unaware, or uninformed
Being innocent is sometimes the best you can be…but where do we draw the line between being innocent and ignorant of things….Sometimes I feel being ignorant is the best way to preserve innocence but will the world even respect you if you are ignorant…but people pay millions to prove themselves innocent…its funny when we do things and are never thinking about the consequences until its too late…and when things go wrong they just go wrong all the way…coming back to the thing we started with again….Ignorance is bliss…so they say..the wisemen…but its human nature to explore new things and people, who generally should be wiser as they can learn from others' mistakes, tend to try everything on their own…..the funny part comes when all the things that people try arent good…so they end up losing whats one of the expensive things in the world…Innocence..so rule of thumb I guess is, dont do anything that your mom wont be proud about….with that i rest my case.

There are things that we have grown to know over the years that we cant take it any other way…not complicated things but just plain simple stuff…ok here is the thing..I was walking back from the gym one evening and saw a pretty lady walking two cute little dogs on the other side of the road…well I crossed the road to have a closer look..not for a closer look at the pretty lady but the two little dogs….the next few minutes were the most shocking thing I have ever been lately…these two little dogs are barking at me but there is no sound of them barking….I mean for a second I thought I had my headphones on but no ! there is no sound but they are barking….well then I pulled up a little courage to ask the lady what it was all about…she said, they had to debark it since they lived in an apartment ! I mean its like putting your TV on mute..the only difference is dog is a living thing like us ! I just couldnt believe that at this age when people are talking about animal rights they do this…

Yuppie !! its that time of the week again when I write about movie of the week…I know..its getting to get be a regular thingy now lol…there we were sitting around on a lazy saturday afternoon deciding on what movie to watch over the weekend and tada we found out a long awaited movie…by us atleast…was out !! next thing we know we were trying to get the showtimes for the movie in the best theatre in town and to our surprise its a limited release and not all theatres released it and not on the regular number of shows !! grrrr we were furious and ended up going to Kendall cinema..which is by the way a good theatre but they bascially run all arty movies…you get the drift…so there we were munching away our popcorn and hoping we dont regret the effort.. the first frame where they used the old cigarette packings for the titles I had a good feel about the movie and the movie is great…very original..very down to earth..very funny actually…if you find out its releasing in any kinda of a theatre near by dont think twice…go for it..its a refreshing experience….heres' to all who want a different prespective every week ! The movie you shld hunt for is "Thank you for smoking"
