Trivia :)

Two reasons caused a break in the movers n shakers series :)

First one




















To quote like Chandler (Mathew Perry) from F.R.I.E.N.D.S

"Kumble is Humble with a K"
In the era of low cost airlines, true to his name, JUMBO retires from cricket.
The indian scorecard will have a HUGE gap in the bowling section without this name. Ever since i've been following cricket, there are few names like Sachin, Dravid, Kumble...all of which sound as synonymous as bat, ball and wicket. It feels really sad to see them moving out, which they have to and this being the right time as well. ShahRukh once commented about a newcomer on his debut movie- "May your career go through the 4 stages of being a superstar. First people will ask "who is this guy" next they will ask " I want only this guy" thirdly they will ask "get me someone who looks like this guy" and finally they will ask "for a younger version of this guy". Guess it will apply to the bowling superstar as well. From an almost anonymous entry (i still remember the series where i couldnt make out between kambli and kumble :) ) he has become a role model and a true pathbreaking phenomenon. Gud luck Kumbles..hope to see u soon.

P.S:
oru curious thought. Actually this post was meant to publish this one, but mr.kumble announced his retirement in an unannounced manner :) Well here it is.

OBAMA almost sounds like OSAMA and BINLADEN abbreviates to BIDEN, his running mate!!!
Paranoid gils or interesting trivia??!! ;))

Best romantic dialogues..EVER

Love and Freedom of expression in times of Sena wud've been apt title for this post :) Thought i would watch MNIK and post its review to show my protest. Since i couldn't i settled for watching re-runs of the usual mushy movies which they show year after year in Star and HBO. I was waiting for Nottinghill, Harry met sally, Autumn in NY, Sweet November, You've got mail and Pretty woman. Surprisingly except for the last one, none of the other movies featured in any of the channels!!! Maybe the channel guys themselves got bored :D Anyways..these movies have become part and parcel of my movie watching gene that i've mugged up most of their dialogues by now :D Here are some for you to cherish and enjoy. Without googling..let me see how many of these you can identify and how many more you could add :) " I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out, I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich, I love that you get a little crinkle above your no...

Enna koduma saaar ithu!!!!

We are a group of 5 who share our apartment. Usually me and one more guy are the last to the leave the house everyday morning. Yesterday, the one who used to leave first for office, didnt come home till 11. I went to sleep after the usual book reading session at around 11.30. When i woke up i saw it was only me who was still lying on the mat while even the guy who leaves for office along with me, had already started folding his bed!! I was feeling very tired and sleepy and was in two minds whether i should take off or go late. Still managed to crawl..brushed teeth half sleeping and swtiched on the geyser. I turned back to see, suddenly it was pitch dark outside the bathroom!! Since the light was On inside, it wasnt power cut and i came out to see what was wrong. The guy who folded his bed, had moved to the hall and was again asleep!! Then only i noticed, it was dark outside the balcony too!!! I checked the time. It was 3AM!!! BOOOOHOOOOOOO!!! SOB SOB SOB!!! That useless guy afterwards ...

Babies day out :D

Last sunday went for my friend's kid 2nd bday party. They had invited all their neighbours and other friends to club it as a getogether event. In 2 days time their kid had grown so fond of me that the moment he saw me came running to me and took me to his new friends for intro :) I dunno what he told them in his broken language. But considering the after effects i guess it must've been something like below. "Yaruda ithu" one of the kids ask this guy "machaan..oru allakkai maatirukaan..freeya irunthena sollu..aala paatha anju farex dabbava oray gulpla adikaravan mathiri irukaan..evlo imsai pannalum thaanguvaan nenakren" "apdiya..test panni pathiruvom" Ten thousand blue blistering barnacles and thundering typhoons to all those parents who didnt come to the resuce of hapless gils. Adutha 1 hour..thenara thenara gummi. One is pulling my specs..another one climbing on my shoulders..two of them playing sarukku maram on my legs..one scientist kid did some...
