And as a local cricket expert pointed out, the Indians are being beaten black and blue in New Zealand because Dhoni ignored the capillary gods. This opinion gained weight when the Kiwi skipper donned different styles for ODIs and Tests and found success in each format.
This chap, once a grounds man at Gandhinagar Cricket Club, points to Rahul Gandhi’s clean shaven chin and reminds me that the Congress’s attempts to gain popularity are as pitiful as mine in trying to find both length and line. Tough to argue with that.
Further proof, if this school of thought needed it, came when a smooth pated Satya Nadella took over Microsoft as its CEO.
There was good news on another front. The next time you are blamed for an accident you can now confidently refute the charge as baseless.
The traffic department says that deteriorating road conditions have now become a prime factor for the mishaps. There are close to 4.8 million people in Chennai, with the number of vehicles put at just over 4 million, and 1780 vehicles being added every day.
To add to this each of the city's buses is doing 42 trips a day. Only God knows where they're going and who is riding on them.
The cop, who pulled you over, would look pretty silly when you point out this increase in number of vehicles, shrinking road space and almost non-existent space for pedestrians.
Occam’s Razor proved its efficacy yet again as we pondered why anyone would want to join Parliament, which, as the Master points out, hosts “as weird a gaggle of freaks and sub-humans as was ever collected in one spot.”
Well, we learnt that in Parliament you can get tea for a buck, soup for five, and a fine vegetarian biryani for eight. And to top it all the past three days no work was done, as against the pretty little work they normally do.
I had been determined to keep politicians out of this missive. But it’s tough when they clamour for attention from all sides.
Take our Finance Minister P Chidambaram for instance. This guy had a very close shave in the last elections, getting through like a batsman who sees the ball shaving the stumps but not disturbing the bails.
But you got to give him credit for honesty. When asked about his government’s achievement he said that God would give the answer. His way of saying: Only God knows.
Meanwhile, Christo Babu, a graduate in business management has proving that skills, whatever they are, can come in handy. He is now much sought after in the Gulf countries for taming wild beasts. Nicknamed 'Wolf', Babu has re-established the fact that employers, like horses, only need management.
Modern mores have come under a Judge’s scrutiny. Pre-marital sex, he said, was a disorder and anathema to the rich culture of this country. Pity. If I had known this much earlier I could have caused further mayhem.
Sex claimed more attention. A man, who used to proudly call himself “Dirty” Deshmukh, has now cleaned up his act, dropped the Dirty from his name, in his bid to become India’s Larry Flynt.
His creation 'Savita Bhabhi – The Movie', an Indian anime, is now on its way to Hollywood. Professional voice artists had been used to maintain an authentic feel, he said.
We, however, do not know if Deshmukh will copy Flynt’s ploy of mailing his magazine Hustler every month, uninvited and for free, to some elected officials. We also do not know how our legislators will react to such advances.
The esteemed TIME and Buzzfeed said that ‘Elder Porn’ was booming in Japan and commented on Sexualitics, a big project by a group of sociologists, demographic experts, computer scientists and math experts.
Now I have reason to cheer. The considerable time I spent doing the cyber-nasty during the still watches of the night ever since I discovered it before the turn of the century has not only been for personal gratification but also the advancement of society.
