Given that most young people are broke, scampering for relationships, and studying algebra that most of them will find useless later in life, you wouldn't think they are the happiest people. Now researchers agree. Aaah, how I look forward to my retirement and play Bingo.

Get ready to Star trek.

is probably the most difficult thing in modern life. I really don't care if politicians ban english rhymes in Bihar as posted here in India Uncut, because politicians are always banning one thing or another. For example, there's a ban on foie gras in my city Chicago and you can read all about it here. The problem is with stupid people thinking one can change status quo by resorting to euphimisms like calling a black sheep, a rainbow sheep and such as reported here. What's the point of that? To make black sheep feel better about themselves?

I've wanted for so long to write a post about Kumble and kept putting it off. Then I remembered reading this post a while ago, by one of my favourite bloggers Jai and I couldn't have said it better. He wrote,

Eight other bowlers have 400+ Test wickets. Their names are: Muttiah Muralitharan, Shane Warne, Courtney Walsh, Wasim Akram, Kapil Dev, Richard Hadlee, Curtly Ambrose, Glenn McGrath. Of these, a black mark has often been put against Muralitharan’s name -- but that’s because of the perceived illegitimacy of his bowling action, not on the grounds of talent/ability/achievement. The rest? Read the list again.

The point of that post was how under appreciated Kumble was inspite of all his achievments. That was when he went past 400. Like a champion marathon runner overtaking the ones in front of him, he went past Akram, Hadlee, Kapil Dev, Ambrose, and now, Walsh. So apart from the contemporeries McGrath, Murali and Warne, there is no one ahead of him. Anybody notice a difference recently?

There you go...the interface is all jazzed up -- I even took the time to put in some code to change how it looks. Much to do, but looks good for now. I hope to update the content regularly as well. It's easy to fall prey to laziness and not update the blog, a certain way to turn-off traffic( I am not sure, if there was traffic before, but with this internet thing, you can never be sure).

That leaves me to give direction to this blog. And I assure you there is some brainstorming going on.

Coming soon....A Chaperone service!!! From your local mobile phone company. What's the question again? Umm...was it, What do you do when the teen daughter simply switches of the phone? I don't know. May be you should ask the braniacs at Verizon.
