We Are the Champions!!!

Manchester United are the new Champions of England!!!
After three seasons out in the cold we are finally back to where we belong...at the top!!
There is a small matter of a FA cup final at Wembley, which I think could be one of the great games of this season. After hours of winning the championship, the new owners of the club, the Glazers, announced that they will support Sir Alex in buying new talent for the upcoming season.

Elsewhere, in India, AFTER a credible bronze finish at the recently concluded 16th Sultan Azlan Shah Hockey tournament, Mani Shankar Aiyar announced in Parliament that the team has been demoted "owing to the continuous poor performance in all major tournaments in the recent past."

This development means that the Indian Hockey Federation (IHF) will now be receiving less grants from the ministry to run their show.

It has been learnt that some other sports have also been 'demoted,' including football, volleyball, swimming, fencing, taekwondo and karate.

India is also hosting the Commonwealth Games in 2010 at Delhi.

Oscar Wilde-wickedly funny!!

This guy is funny. Shit, I mean apart form being one of the most celebrated playwriters ever, check out these quotes of his. Some of them are actually spoken by the characters in his plays. Brilliant!!!

A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal.

A man can be happy with any woman as long as he does not love her.

Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.

Genius is born--not paid.

I was working on the proof of one of my poems all the morning, and took out a comma. In the afternoon I put it back again.

If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

Morality, like art, means drawing a line someplace.

This one truly rocks!!-Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone elses opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.

Music makes one feel so romantic - at least it always gets on one's nerves - which is the same thing nowadays.

One should always play fairly when one has the winning cards.

Comfortably Numb

Yup. There it is. My first post. Sniff. After years of avoiding the blog, i've finally decided to take the plunge.

Firstly, a little about myself. What's with these short sentences? God. Anyway, like the title of the blog suggests, most of the time i'm really comfortably numb, mostly due to the supercool ac in our office. Really, I feel like I might even bump into an iceberg in the stores sometimes.

I'm a movie and TV buff, and quite a serious one at that. Sports, beer, chocolate, good food, friends are my other turn ons. I also listen to anything that has a catchy tune and beat. Definitely a beat person. Most of all, I love spending time in the loo. That privatest part of my life is heavily safeguarded. Its like my bat cave. Awesome. Instead of a cool Batmobile, though, there are enough magazines and books there to last a nuclear holocaust.
So feel free to post any experiences with aliens, tigers, politicians, rickshawallahs. Am gonna end this with a great song which I completely endorse. Cheers!
