They cannot be…

One made me understand what ‘duty’ and ‘respect’ means. One other is the most beautiful thing for my life time. One another shouldn’t be there in my memory.  And so, No. They all can not be from Venus.

QED

When one is being misunderstood all the time, one has to shut up and not cause any further confusion.

The Inevitable

It didn’t occur to me (when I wrote this in the recent past) the inevitable might be around the corner!

Life isn’t good!

Pain

Words from Jens Voight (whom I have watched in awe for the last 5 years now)…

“I am fed up with this. They make our life difficult and complicated. Through their obvious stupidity, they risk the existence of the teams, including soigneurs, mechanics, bus drivers and so on.”

and…

“These people go home now and hide behind their attorneys. But I stand here on the front line. I have to answer all the questions and talk about doping. And I don’t have anything to do with it”

This doesn’t end here. Hear out Michael Boogerd (who worked his ass off for Rasmussen in Alps and Pyrennees and I started admiring him)…

“At Boxmeer you come to the start and the announce will say, ‘Look, here we have Michael Boogerd, who rode for Rasmussen for weeks.’ I find it terrible. To ride for four more days in the Tour for nobody? don’t know what I should think of all this. I want to go home immediately.”

The pain in these words is…..well, just horrible! No wonder, I felt this.

Update: Just came to know that Jens Voight is in a break away and leading the main group by 8+ minutes. An unbelievable bike rider!

 

Conversation (SMS) between buddies

One: Work is done..fyi.

Two: Thank you

<<thanking isn’t quite common>>

One: Ah! Who are you?

Two: You’ve done some stuff for me. At least, you shouldn’t forget that.

One: Man that’s impressive! What this world has become!!

Two: Shit happens..

One: Only shit happens!

 As thoughts plunge into the past, the only victim is time

Why iPod or Zune or whatever is never goanna be in my pocket?

Jobs’ essay named “Thoughts on music” talks about “free music” as a viable alternative to the existing DRM controlled music (for portable devices). If that sort of thing happens, only then I will think of buying an iPod (or any other portable music player), otherwise I have no way to fill the damn ever growing hard disk with legal music!

That said, I fail to see how the big four are going adopt this…This might never happen and I’ll remain without a personal portable music player!

England winning soccer world cup – what a joke?

As pointed out here, English media was nothing short of stupid in hoping that their stars (or “Golden Generation” in their words) are going to lift WC ‘06!! Probably 2 players in their team would make it to the world team – John T and Steven G…Even that’s a stretch!! (Rooney is yet to mature – he is almost invisible in many games!!!…give him time!! He isn’t even close to being top notch yet).

If English media thinks Premiership is a guage of English National Team’s ability – they are…well, stupid! English Clubs are doing well in the last 2 yes – no doubt.

Except Brazil – no single team had the potential to win…Brazil didn’t perform…it became a open competition!! Germany, France and Italy (in that order) came out in flying colours given their capacity! England – as usual, very ordinary to watch and that’s all one could expect.

“Golden Generation” of English football?!?! – Are you kidding me?

As we raised a toast

As we raised a toast to “the screwed up life” in Paparazzi, something resonated in me for the first time!! Earlier, I used to assume its just our lives that’s screwed up. That night it dawned on me that life is screwed up over all (a dawn in the night!!!??!!).

To:

All the Mr/Ms Optimism, Optimism doesn’t have any bearing on life being screwed up!

Discomposed

This post had given wrong perception (even to myself, when I read it later on).. So, taking it off here.
