Monsanto

Number One Enemy of Humanity

Wake up you dumb fucks in India and specially in Andhra, stop using their GE seeds. Short term you'll make money but the consequences of looking at the present will hamper your future, it's just not worth it.


P.S: Will ellaborate on this after my end terms are done

damn

Gonna miss both Black Friday & Cyber monday this year, black friday for obvious reasons and have this stupid end term quiz on monday so there goes my cyber monday.

Also that explains the fact as to why there haven't been any posts recently, two words; end terms.

So....

Found it so funny and we can easily Indianize it, just the last thing has to be changed to something specific to religion/region/caste and if all three work, even the better.

Epic Fail

A Dutch couple visiting India's Bihar state, were charged an astronomical 10,000 rupees ($204; £134) for four samosas, the potato-stuffed snack.

That's some conning and getting conned.

Funny read

God said. "If a person tells you it's My will that they kill someone, they're wrong. Got it? I don't care what religion you are, or who you think your enemy is, here it is one more time: No killing, in My name or anyone else's, ever again."

Onion, sometimes comes up with articles that actually makes sense, if you care to look at the deeper meaning.

Roger Ebert acknowledges my comment

It's not a great comment/opinion but what the heck!

I know it's juvenile but he is someone who I've always looked up to, not only for his reviews but even his op-ed pieces. And he giving a reply is a big deal for me.

Tendlya Speaks

Wouldn’t like to start thinking of 2011 in 2008.

Have a hunch that he will play for sure in 2011 World cup. Just hope he goes out on a winning note unlike Lara.

Sachin

Is officailly the GOD.

Come to mamma

Google Is Taking Questions.

Just the thing to make the lives of lazy people like me easier, God how much I hate typing stuff. On a side note doesn't the scenario played out in Wall-E look even the more ominous now.

If only this were Real...

One heck of a spoof.

P.S: Reason for upgrading from 2G to 3G. Very amusing post.

Advani promises Telangana

Vote us to power at the Centre, we will create a separate Telangana in 100 days.
Desperation shows, Advaniji. Hope BJP doesn't screw up this time too like they did in 04' general elections.

Danny Boyle

Slumdog Millionaire, is getting rave reviews from everyone, am happy that Danny is getting his due. Have been watching his movies from a long time and was waiting for his follow up to the brilliant Trainspotting.

At a level am even happy that a movie set in India, is getting a positive buzz for all the right reasons. Can't wait to catch this cinema in theaters or on the intrawebs, depending on whichever happens first.

P.S: Roger Ebert gave a **** rating.

Lachi about Gangs

His own man

So long gangs, for the memories and never-say-die attitude of yours.

It was really great on the part of Dhoni to let gangs captain one last time.

Interesting times ahead for Indian Cricket team.

Farewell, comrades

Tendlya speaks about Kumble & Ganguly.

Whenever I’m asked about how much India will miss Anil I remember what he meant to me when I was a captain. If something was happening, I would give the ball to Anil. If nothing was happening, I would give the ball to Anil. If you needed to contain runs, you give the ball to Anil. If you needed to attack, you give the ball to Anil. India will miss him every day and at all times.

Sourav has played for more than 10 years and we will miss his presence in the dressing room. I don’t think there is any cricketer who has not gone through a bad patch and so did Sourav, but he showed tremendous grit and determination to come back. As much cricket as I’ve played with him and seen him play, this period is the best I’ve seen him bat. He will go out with his head high.

Well...

Spielberg and Smith plot Oldboy remake.

What or where is the need to remake this movie?

Another sign that both of them are completely exhausted of ideas and may well be the end of their hold at BO.

Lost for words

It's almost like the author has written about my life. Can we really freeze time? If possible now is the time to do it, can't imagine what it would be like when Sachin finally calls it a day.

LMAO

There's a whole book about this, what I would do to get a hold of it.

Very Very Special Laxman

Nothing calms you like Laxman.

Enuf said. Period.

RIP Michael Crichton

Another literary giant is lost.

One of the reasons why I've developed an interest in science is because of his books. He along with Robin Cook gave some semblance to science fiction writing. His books were easy to read but that didn't mean he took liberties with facts, almost all his books were meticulosly researched and presented to the readers.

He is one of the few people who was succesful at print and visual media. ER created by him is by far the best medical dramas.

I'll end the post with the statement that his family issued "Through his books, Michael Crichton served as an inspiration to students of all ages, challenged scientists in many fields, and illuminated the mysteries of the world in a way we could all understand" That pretty much sums up his works.

Obama

Can he match the actions, now that he has won the presidential election, with his rhetoric? It'll be interesting to see how this goes, which ever way it goes, am sure that it'll be better than 8 years of Dubya's rule.

Nepotism?

M Vijay called up as cover for Gambhir. Jeez man, you have Jaffer, Aakash Chopra & Dinesh Karthik but no, you go for such a left field choice. Can't help but think that it is because of the chief selector and this guy being from the same state even though he has had a great season this year. Whatever! For India's sake I hope he succeeds if he makes his debut in the fourth test.

KMA

People like this are exactly the reason why America is going downhill.

Jumbo Retires

Anil Kumble announces retirement.

It was always on the cards but didn't expect him to retire in this way, maybe at the end of England series, yes. Whatever a great performer and someone who has won more matches for India than any other present or past cricketer.

Thank you.

For a novel that is supposed to be a portrait of the ‘real’ India, The White Tiger comes across as curiously inauthentic. Is it a novel from one more outsider, presenting cynical anthropologies to an audience that is not Indian?

Exactly what I felt when I read Kiran Desai's 'The inheritance of loss' & Arundati Roy's 'The God of small things.' Atleast there are people out there calling out these fraudsters who think they are some sort of crusaders against the oppressive ways of one brown man over the other, forgetting what a white man has done and was doing till a few decades back.

America Don't SCREW UP!!

Final nail in the Coffin?

No One In Tech Can Defend McCain. With 3 days to go, looks like all is lost for the old man. His campaign run would be a basket case in future, on how not to run a presidential election campaign for sure.

TDK script

Searched for it all over the place, finally found it. Will read it and then blog about what changes they made while shooting the movie. Probably this is the first time I'll be reading a script after having watched the movie, kudos to the security in the sets of TDK that one didn't surface on the intranets before the movie released or maybe I was too lazy to search. whatever can't wait to read it proly will do it by next weekend.

P.S: I know that the harcover was out long time back but people who know me well, will vouch for fact that, the whole concept of time is obsolete for me.

Andhra Pradesh Formation day.

Thanks to Potti Sriramulu for making this possible, if only there were more people like him today.

As a formation day gift centre grants classical langugage status to telugu. I don't know what good this status is going to do, maybe increased funding for researchers? or mostly it's just a titular thing which has no real utility except for bragging rights. Whatever I'm happy at some corner that after Sanskrit and Tamil you've Telugu and Kannada joining them in classical langugages club.

P.S: Maybe from next year onwards we will be celebrating a seperate Telangana formation day, Hyderabad formation day & Rayalaseema formation day so this year it's even the more important that we take some time out and celebrate this day.
