Stupid!
Thats the exclamation I can think about on the selection of Indian cricket team during July/Aug 2006. They have missed out picking Zaheer Khan and Sourav Ganguly. Dropping Y Venugopala Rao and Robin Uthappa, is a silly mistake. Kiran More and Abhijit Kale have proved to the world what happens behind the selections.
Anyway, stars of Sachin are not good, and hence he would miserably fail, as Sanjay Manjrekar says. So there is a need for new young blood.
Anil Kumble is a must. Missing out Dinesh Kaarthick, is a pathetic mistake. That guy is capable of scoring 400 plus runs in a single day, which shows how hard hitting batsman he is. Krish Srikkanth is not promoting Tamilnadu players enough. His concern is his two sons only, who are playing lousy cricket.
The quota system of bringing Dinesh Mongia, bcoz, the proximity to the Pawar camp is a real mistake.
This Indian Cricket team sucks! The will win only if other two teams really suck most!

ஏஷுவா
மகனின் சிறப்பு தோற்றம்
எப்படி இருக்கும்
என்று யுத நண்பன் கேட்க
மேற்கின்

Go Air and the fleecing of customer
I had a terrible experience with Go Air recently. This is how they fleece customers?
I was booking 4 tickets on June 23rd (tried thrice), owing to the special Rs 525/- per ticket offer they promoted.
My credit card is charged twice, and they are yet to refund my money. The stupid Indian Credit card system, allows the merchant to charge, if the number is with them, rather than denying the payment. Government is not bothering about this at all.
Looks like this is how Jeh Wadia makes money? This will get published all over the world!

My Lovely Chennai
There are different sides to the story of Chennai (aka Madras). Still, compared to Mumbai (aka Bombay), it houses about one sixth of the states populations.
This is the only place on earth, where the land real estate brokers call, a place Thirukalukundram which is 75 Kms away, as outskirts of City.
Language is not a problem here, English suits well. Thamizh is the lcal language, adn Telugu and Malayalam are common. Urdu and Hindi to an extent can be used. The famous Madras Basai Tamizh laden with telugu and Hindi slangs, is the best. The Gana songs are the best.
Thanks to the torrential rain during last October 2005, there is plenty of water, and we dont buy water at Rs 800 per tanker of 1200 Liters. No Amma did this, but Varuna Bhagawan. The rents inside city are moving upwards, while on the OMR (lousy stinky place when it rains) it is skyrocketing - Velachery/Perungudi onwards.
There is a place called Kannagi nagar, named is changed I think, which waas shown in one Rajesh's movie 2 years ago, where peopel used to live on the Old Veeranam scheme pipes.
This is a strange city where the Kannagi statue is moved out of the pedestal, as one Keralite Jyotish, said, an angry widow, pointing to the ruling place. Now that jyotish, is scouting for peopel to visit him, advertising in Deccan Chronicle That is another story.
This is a holy place for the Cinema - Kollywood, where all forms of stars are born and brought up. Heroes and politicians are made. And they end up ruling, irrespective of the part affiliations. For the people, by the people.
Food is very good here. Saravana Bhavan, sort of charges five star rates. Ther eis one good joint called Raj Bhavan near Royapettah Police Station, cheap and best. Ofcourse, Ponnusamy is great fornon veg food. For sweets, visit Sri Krishna Sweets (but they should have clean waiters and waitresses working). For shopping ther eis Pondy Bazaar.
The college crowd is gifted with lots of Ice Cream Parlours. Recently I visited one MW parlour opposite to Ethiraj college, which gives 50% of your total weight as discount, provided you are a menber, this is valid till end of May 2006.
The ECR (East Coast Road) which leads to Mahanbalipuram and Pondicherry (to be changed to Pudhucherry soon) has drive in theatres and best food joints. There are there parks like VGP and MGM located. Crocodile park and the Dolhin city is also there.
Chennai has the best Zoo at Vandaloor, after the Airport.
Auto drivers do fleece people, but they are very helpful. City buses are crowded.
Last but not the least, the worlds second longest beach - Merina (there is a proposal to change its name to Kannagi beach soon), is one beautiful sight. You get good bajjis, cooked in front of you. Also the Sundal and Verkadalai is the best. Beggars menace is also there. The Police are very friendly and helpful. You can see big stars and VIPs on the side walks doing ther evening walks.

Ooty - Lovely Place on Planet Earth
Ooty (aka Ootacamund - Kothar Mandhu - House of Kothars), is the Lovely place on Planet Earth. Best compared to Shimla, Kodaikanal and Yercaud.
With Dodabetta, peaking on the top and the Ketty valley (Santhoor) on the downside, this is one wonderful place on the Earth.
It can be reached from Two sides, one from Gudalur and the other Mettupalayam. It is about 2.5 hours uphill drive.
Coonoor comes first, on the way, with a view on the side - vallies and all.
All the Indian movies song scenes are shot here. There is Manjoor which is the best.
The cost of stay would be cheap from Rs 400/- to Rs 4000/-, based on budget per day. The sight seeing cost is cheap, with auto-rickshaws plying around.... Food is also cheap. Hot vegetarian food is served in most of the hotels.
What else can I say, having lived closer to Ooty at Kotagiri, just 18 kma away.
The best family vacation spot - cheap and best.

Mandal, Reservation, Quota Issues.
The Quota demonstrators can do the following to ensure the government listens
(1) Throw away or burn the passports and pledge alliance for working only for India.
(2) Make the relatives, return back to India and work only in India. (No NRI;s)
(3) Dont work for the MNCs, and work only for the people (Indian co's, wiothout FII stake) and rural upliftment, in small towns/villages.
(4) Shun giving interviews to foreign owned or run channels like CNN-IBN.
This will definitely make the government, make the Caste column in the school/college application form disappear, and everyone is accepted on merit.
Also these IIT and IIM fellas, should stop working for foreign companies right away and give all the money earnt so far, into the Prime Ministers relief fund. Do a Rang De Basanti!
I am waiting for all the reservations to be removed. Also apprecaite Shri Arjun Singhji's determinance. I think he is going to add, 40% more seats - to ensure all are happy. There is fee cut in the offing.

The poem I wrote after 9/11
Is it my time?
Has my time come?
Is it that bad or gone?
I am like and eagle now
Flying high in the clouded skies with sorrow
Unlike the circus performer on ring
Rather than like a mountaineer wandering
I get the shock of the lifetime
To watch the worst crime
There goes the twin towers crumbling
Sending a strong message of shivering
A satanic action of bombing
Sorrowful people left insane and loathing
Diving to their last fall
Will this terrorism die at all?
Has my time come?
Is it that bad or gone?
I am like and eagle now
Flying high in the clouded skies with sorrow

There goes the twin towers crumbling
Sending a strong message of shivering
A satanic action of bombing
Sorrowful people left insane and loathing
Diving to their last fall
Will this terrorism die at all?

How Kaavya Gets Caught and goes down.
I was very surprised to see Americans leaving a person of color to shine for long... the same guys Alloy as reported by Boston Globe and other harvard fanatics, and the Watergate relations, confirmed by the beauty Anjelina Jolie in her article/interview.

Good that she wants to purchase the copyright and move on with the movie. I wish a Part 1 and Part 2.

Kaavya's Bestseller HOWGAL and the issues
This is the latest story on Kaavya Viswanathan, the HOWGAL author.... on plagiarism
http://www.hindu.com/2006/04/25/stories/2006042502172200.htm
No wonder, these Americans (USA, you sue me, me sue you kids) are after any successful people!
There is a brain mapping theory which says that, the depcition of a scene of a book, by nature, can be literally same, if it is imbibed.
Here Little Brown & Co, would have used the same Editor for the book, who might have worked for the McFarty book.

Markets at 12000 (BSE Sensex)
The markets are at mind boggling 12000 (BSE Sensex) and ET says, 15000 with at P/E 17 is the tough call, which might be during April 2007, after the budget. Then everyone should exit market.
Today Sun TV got listed at Rs 1000- and has gone upto 1,444, owing to punters hit. The groups Market Cap is at Rs 10,000 crores. Humble beginning for Kalanidhi Maran and family.
Also look at this article from Rediff on how MFs rape the gullible customers. http://in.rediff.com/money/2006/apr/24perfin.htm

My trip to Tirupathi on April 23rd, 2006
I had travelled to Tirupathi on April 23rd, 2006 with my family, to finish a venduthal, in terms of tonsuring hair in my kids heads. We both also gave poo-mudi.
It was after 7 years and 4 months since my last trip (Nov 1998 after my marriage).
We booked thru Sri Renga Travels, T Nagar Chennai (Phone 3299 7719), 12 days in advance, with an executive package @ 1400 Rs per tix in a Toyota Qualis (this varies lower for a Tempo Traveller ride), and they also charged for kids @ 50%. The actual travel was arranged by Sree Balaji Travels, who has good contacts on the travel darshan, might even charge lesser. We were part of another group of family, owing to entrance tickets. They had booked Unjal Seva at 12 PM for Rs 2000/-, catering to 10 adults. Only 10 laddoo's are given.
We started at 5 PM from house, starting point was T Nagar, Siva Vishnu Temple @ Chennai. The journey started with a group of 3 vehicles. We had sumptuous breakfast at Sri Vema Hotel AC at Tiruvallur (2 Idlis, 1 vada, 1 Dosai and 1 Pongal plus Coffee) at 7.30 AM. We started at 8 AM and reached Tiruchanoor (Alamelumangapuram) at 9.15 AM, on the way we saw two snakes on the road, and had a quick Darshan for Rs 25- in the Rs 200 queue, where sandwiching fo people is quite common. The pickpockets were having a heyday! We started for Tirupathi (reached adivaram at 9.40AM) and after few minutes of checkup of vehicle, we were enroute to Tirumala, abode of Lord Balaji (Venkatesa Perumal).
We reached the top, 20 KMs, and reached the VIP guest house of M/S Lloyds Steel, and on paying Rs 250/- finished the Veduthal tonsure (Actual cost Rs 10/- per head only), and had a good bath and reached Vaigundam at 11.30 AM, in time for the 12 PM darshan, after the hand baggage scan. Too much rush and large crowds, owing to holiday season for kids. To put money in the Hundi, the gaurds are taking bribe to help you cut the line. On finishing the hot sandwiching darshan, kids crying, and after having Free Prasadham - Sweet Pongal, we came out to collect ladoos. Hawkers were selling Ladoos illegally for Rs 30 each piece. I think they give a cut to HDFC counter.Since temperatures were hovering at 40 deg Celsius, walking was uncomfortable, from the temple to the parking lot on the cement plaster openway, but mud was cooler. Those idiots, who are trustees, walkin front of the temple from car, hence they dont know the pain of walking in the hot sun, why cant they put a shelter, when the temple collects 2 to 3 crores a day as donation. They should also take care of women getting molested. Scent can be sprayed in the temple complex to get rid of gas smell with huge fans. I dont know how the Ministers, CM, PM, Presidents and of course Ambani's have the darshans.
I saw a newly wed couple, the groom from USA I suppose, with a good looking bride, married at Tirupathi, donating a bunch of $ 100 notes in the Hundi, with a gold coin! Probably a very nice match etc... The lady was also climbing on the side bars, to have the darshan as she was short!
We reached the down of the hill, after a minor accident, by the sleepy driver in one of the 59 air pin bends (old road). For Rs 70/- the sumptuous lunch South Indian thali at Bhima's residency was good. They give that to the travels at Rs 52/-. We had to pay the difference for the cost of 2 Batura's, for one kids meal coupon. Nice system! We reached home at 7 PM. The trip was quick, and in the last 30 years of my travel to Tirupathi, this was the easiest and costliest trip. Less painful. May Lord Balaji shower his blessings on us. (One of my wish was to be the richest person on thee earth, beating the Sheikhs and Bushes and Bill Gates)

Violence and IT life in Bangalore
It was sad and unfortunate on the sudden demise of Dr. Rajkumar Anna at Bangalore.
The miscreants went amock looting Tamil owned shops, and setting fire.... very sad indeed. The loss of 5 lives, and that of a policeman was unwanted. May their soul rest in peace.
It was good to see, all the companies declaring holidays and CM taking extra steps.
None of my friends were affected. Few of my friends who were to take trains on Thursday, just dropped their plans and stayed put. Myself, supposed to be there for the weekend getaway with family, cancelled the flight tix.

Stock Market Crashes again!
Today is another Blackday! 600 points on the Sensex, have been eroded and the investors have lost more than 75000 crores in last two days!
The FII's have made enough on the market and they are moving out elsewhere (Vietnam may be).
The petrol cost uncertainty, has trigerred this problem!
Funny thing, yesterday a person from HDFC bank calls me to make investment, rightaway saying that this is the time to buy! When I ased him to guarantee my capital, he was shocked!
I can predict market will tank another 2% to 10900, before stabilising! 12000 by July is the bet!

DC Machines cups (1987)
An anecdote - from PSG Tech BE EEE 1986-90 batch.
I call this DC Machines cups (1987)
There was this Lecturer (Senior guy) called Swamy, who was keen on University Senate politics than teaching us in 1987 (III Sem). Out of possible 17 classes, he taught us for 5, and gave a mini quiz on 6th and thats it. Never turned up at classes, and based on the feedback from Seniors, we kept mum, and never told anyone in the Mgmt. Happy with the free class and the World Cup. The evaluation system is marked based ( Internal - 25, Part A - 37.5., B - 37.5), out of which a part is evaluated outside (IIT, BITS or RECs). So all were confident, in the class of 52, that with 62.5 marks in his hands, everyone gets a sure pass @ 50 based on whatever you write .. er... scribble, which was the case with seniors.... the day of reckoning came, and we saw only 9 passed, and rest fluncked at miserable scores. We call that CUP in college lingo, down south. For most, coming from the best of the best schools, with limited engineering seats at PSG comparable to IITs, this was a nightmare, and first of its kind. On seeing this huge flunks, the HOD and the Senior staff and college management, came down to talk to us, and no one, except me asked them why this was not known to them for years. The answer was funny, but I want to keep it for myself!
