Men in BLUE-S

The latest fever in town is ICC World cup 2007 , this time spreading from the grounds at West Indies to the rest of the world.

As expected, back in India, the enthusiasm grew, the hopes were built sky-high, cos the team is to bring the Cup home...the advertisements, songs, videos,the street's energy all at its peak, all over-done, as though this sport was going to save the nation from recurring crimes, corrupted governmental bodies, poverty, hunger and all the injustice!

The result of energy and time and money of one nation on one team to bring "glory" is a failed debut match yesterday! What will the team excuse themselves of being in a form worse than a much younger, less experienced team? the opening batsman is out of form and wickets fall like pack of cards towards the end of the match...what a shame! The captain wants to call it a "bad dream"! Wow! we train sportsmen to be out of form and call it a dream, a sequence of uncontrolled actions...can we check if the coaching is done for putting up a good game on the field or making excuses to the public?

R I D I C U L O U S -- that's the appropriate word! I stopped supporting the game itself when the disgusting politics and business of the background were revealed about a decade back...I hate it, I will continue hating it!

Loathe the sad team, who talk big, disappoint supporters, corrupt themselves and look for fame without performance!!!

"as though this sport was going to save the nation from recurring crimes, corrupted governmental bodies, poverty, hunger and all the injustice!" - cant be refuted. But dont u think due to this sport atleast the entire nation comes together, inspite of all its short comings?

Rare Snow day! 01/10/2021

 After a grilling 2020, 2021 started out with a mixture of emotions - grim but hopeful, distant from family but long WhatsApp calls, rainy but looking forward to the sunshine in the coming days. A lot of R&R is how we started our New Years, thanks to the long weekend. We read, watched tv, cooked and slept a lot!  Once work started, it didn't even feel very different from the past few weeks. Unfortunately a few days into the first working week, there was chaos in the DC Capitol and many State Capitols. A riot started by an infuriating and possibly out-of-work men and women wanting to display their passionate support of an incapable President. Back to feeling uncertain and grim about the future, we were surprised by Mother Nature providing us a rare snow fall day here in Austin, TX! It was simply amazing and a great 2nd Sunday of the year where we got 3.5-4 inches of snow ! The sights were remarkable during and after the snow fall. The entire city and neighbors were thrilled...

Uniquely Singapore-Day 3

As decided we started off to Sentosa island after packing some sandwiches and juices in for the rest of the day.Sentosa was some awesome experience. "Images of Singapore" being the best visit with the highlight of what makes Singapore and the wax models of the famous Raffles and other political leaders, also display of different birth and wedding ceremonies conducted in S’pore. The country takes its name from 'Singapura' which means land of lions, as seen by the fishermen in the early days. The "sky tower" by Carlsberg company was worth it too, where we got to see Singapore from almost 130 meters above sea level-this probably being the highest view of Singapore. Cinemania was fun but I have had better experiences before. Not to forget the Underwater world was amazing with almost 2000 different fishes, 100 different crabs, the Dugong attracting a lot of attention. This fish is named Gracy because of her graceful movement. She has the face of a baby cow, body ...
