Random Stuff

India is doing well in a test , wait for it Overseas!. Amazing, unbelievable , may it last for more than one day. England on the other hand have shot themselves in the foot. An amusing article in the BBC said atleast the brit barmy army was more wittier than the aussie spectators. Ironically the barmy army isn't that witty and is more of a nuisance, but the British crowd who text in messages to BBC are funny, humorous , cynical and amusing as just the British can be. Mind your language anyone?
Watching khosla ka ghosla.It would be a better movie if it decided whether it wanted to be an emotional drama or a Not a penny more or less caper movie.
Read some bits of the Black Friday book. It takes some doing to write about this matter objectively. So far Zaidi succeeds. I wouldn't have and im not sure what's better.
Some article in the midday yesterday began on a brilliant note. The muslims panel of somewhere had a conference and said the community needed to look beyond reservations and fix their problems rather than clamoring for reservations. And also simply voting anti bjp was just not working
It did however go downhill from there with MP's Like Syed Shahahbuddin wondering how to circumvent the court order which capped the reservations. Its said that the places worse off for muslims are where the elected representatives are those who are the champions of the muslim cause. I wouldn't be surprised. Other people stating that OBC muslims are also OBC's and the discriminatory hindu law which states that obc's can only be of the hindu religion. If history serves me correctly some people converted from hinduism because there was no caste structure in christianity or islam. Ironic really that OBC is now a sought after status.
Laments from a pakistani about the lack of books and intellectual discourse in Lahore. Whats stopping you? Get rid of the dictator you'll have, stop worrying about other countries should do it.
Mr musharraf has offered to freeze the LOC and jointly administer kashmir.Im sure he wouldnt react kindly if India offer joint administration of pakistan.
Some joy for India at the asian games. Anyone watching them?
