Sni(a)ppets

Monday was a big day for every Indian- we are the proud owners of the First T20 World cup !
I'm really very happy that I was able to watch this historic event and that too in a jam packed place with 1500 odd people.
Wow what a match. Here are few snaps that I managed to click amidst the whistles,bangs,drums and hoots

Now what do you feel when after all this someone asks you the next day,
"Yesterday there was a match.. who won? "

Here is another picture from my work place

This is my keyboard and if you are not blind you will notice a hole between F9 and F11 keys.
Yup , my F10 key is missing since yesterday !!

My fortune for the day

"Today's fortune: A cheerful letter or message is on its way to you"

Orkut says so.
And I'm still waiting.

Orkut strangers suck

Wish there is some mechanism to stop this shit.

Inspirational Blogger Award Contd.

Thanks for all the responses.
My first choice was very easy & she was the first person to comment.
Yes, its Honeybee for her spontaneity and humor. I had to give that to her.

I had difficulty in my second choice. With purpleheart on a vacation & santosh opting out I was looking at the rest of the comments.
I was startled at the similarity. All these guys think the same - THEY ARE GREAT

But atlast debating between Chriz & themahatma for commenting twice, I ended up giving this award to
themahathma, for the additional sense of humor.

Mistaken identity

Disturbing

This Ibnlive ticker in my firefox made me shout "OMG".

Salman Khan – Being Human

Salman Khan is in the news again and this time it is not for a hit & run case or for hunting an endangered species or for threatening Mrs.Bachan junior.

He is launching a non-profit organization for under privileged children & its called “Being Human” . Also he plans to hold an exhibition of his paintings (Yes he paints very well.)& raise funds for the organization.

He also held a special screening of his new film partner for disabled children.

Very few know that he is already involved in a number of charity works indirectly.

He is one upright person who simply cannot hide his feelings.

Some excerpts from a site,

Recently when asked if he would do a film with Abhishek Bachchan, Salman said “Why would I have a problem with Abhishek?”

However he definitely did not share the same feelings for actors John Abraham and Vivek Oberoi. On John Salman said “There is no equation, I don’t know that man.” And as for working with Vivek Oberoi in his trademark sarcastic style he said “Who’s that, Oh little Vivek, that idiot! Of course not.”

And now that’s Sallu & I like him for that.

Trivia: His new film partner with Govinda shares the story line with Hollywood movie Hitch starring Will Smith.

My Companion

Its 10:30 PM.
I'm lying down in my bed , with my night lamp on.
My roomie is already in her second stage of sleep(she sleeps at 9 )
My hand is holding Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey.
At this moment I'm alone with this companion,
Incase you are still blinking at the monitor , dont worry ,I can enlighten you.
Thats my room's fan(fan->not equal to the fans in orkut),and the sound accompanies even my dreams.

P.S: Please bear with the sound quality, I couldn't reach like a giraffe.

Someone's excitement

Someone I know recently said,
"I saw Ratan Tata.. he is pink in color..I stood next to him just like this.. " she stood next to me with both of our shoulders touching & grinning widely.
"and took snaps..I'm so thrilled "
She was still grinning.

Wish this happens

We were watching the morning news when this particular Ad was aired.It has an excellent background score which is brilliant with just few "thung..thung..thrumpp.." as words.
They show Eskimos who travel in a boat ,auto ,even a cycle, cross a rail track , walk through fields & get chased by dogs!!

Pause. Now they show a man who is having a cup of tea when these Eskimos suddenly flood his house.
"Beep" his mobile shows the word "Eskimo" in a text box & tells "search completed"
This is an Ad for Hutch live, search anything.
Check the Ad yourself here,


After the Ad K says,

"I do have Hutch, shall we search Brad Pitt??"

Snippets from a good read..

" Seems you are not bad after all, some girls have crush on you too "

"Really?anyway I don't care .. who likes me or not..as long as my girl does like me"

"Your girl is flattered"
