Mao for PM?

I see that the Chinese are contesting the next general election in India. Or atleast bankrolling it.

Who else would fund the CPI and CPI (M) ? Must be them, since the CCCP (USSR) doesn't exist anymore....

Here a quick suggestion

Lets see the CPI try to contest elections in China first. If any of them are not arrested / tortured / sent to slave labour camps / sentenced to death, etc, we can do that to them when they return to India.

Remember, these are the same guys who are unwilling to comment on

1. Lack of freedom of press...or plain and simple free speech in the "People's Republic" (how is it a republic? by what definition?....dictatorship as I see it)

2. Tiniamen Square (1989)....more than 10,000 died or disappeared, all because they asked for a chance to select their leaders...remember the lone man who stopped several tanks in the middle of the street?

3. ...claims to Arunachal Pradesh, parts of kashmir, Tibet, Bhutan (and most likely they will want to claim Gujrat too someday)...i say we give them West bengal and kerala and be done with it, take back Tibet, will work wonders for India if we can get this deal...



And all this while they wave red flags, and do not want to do an honest day's work thru their entire life.....very progressive....


Makes me sick.

Tech Tales

Every once in a while you run into something that makes you smile. This website is one of them......

Here is a snippet ! and here is the link www.techtales.com...Have fun !!!

*******************************************************************

Hello tech support.

Hello there young man. I'm having a problem with a computer I bought from you.

What sort of problem is it ma'am?

It's frozen.or locked up.or whatever they call it.

Were you running a particular program when it happened?

I was playing solitaire. And now when I click on the card with the circle in it, nothing happens.

Does the arrow on the screen still move when you move your mouse?

Let me see..yes it does.

Then I think the game of solitaire was over, there were no more cards.

Oh no! And I was doing so well!

Holocoust Myth

"TEHRAN—Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad yesterday told delegates at an international conference questioning the Holocaust that Israel's days were numbered. Ahmadinejad, who has sparked international outcry by referring to the killing of 6 million Jews in World War II as a "myth," launched another verbal attack on the Jewish state."


The only myth I see is that or Iran being a "progessive, Islamic state which allws its people to choose its leaders". Why is it that we never see muslim leaders put in time and effort on anything useful?

How is the existence of a jewish state a threat to the progress of Iran? Sounds like a bunch of slackers hiding behind religion to try and take away attention from all the problms they have caused their own countrymen. Pakka politicians hain bhai ! No God or religion involved here...

Ganguly and miracles



Well, looks like Saurav Sahib has decided that he will stay on the crease, no matter what. Thats good. Someone needs to stay, considering that Sehwag takes his 2 minute morning walks after India are called in to bat...

Now if we could have Dravid back in form, then we could have a situation with a wall on one side, and a sticky player on the other! Time for them to get back into form, even if by fluke. Been too long now.

On the other side of the world, the American President is playing his games again. For God and country, the man says ! And what the hell happenned to the people of the USA? Arent they supposed to benefit? One confused man there. I bet he only agrees to consider all suggestions...and he will consider them, then reject them, and continue to be the fool till his term is over. Even a lame duck can be dangerous.....hopefully he wont allow the oil companies to drill in the Bay of Alaska...but that is hoping for too much. After all, they are the major contributors to his retirement fund.

George W. Bush should be made to do a honest job for atleast one day in his life. All he seems to have done is smoke up(to elevate his thoughts), dodge the draft (to show his patriotism), send others to die (to keep America strong) and screw up the environment for the entire planet (Kyoto). He can sincerely say that he caused changed...its just that the direction and manner of change is a sad reflection on how informed the American voter is..or maybe he just pioneered the scam of the voting machines instead. His work is like the photo i have posted, lazy, and stupid..potentially dangerous.

Dangerous times, these...i can feel Homeland Security monitor my blog right now..

Cricket, politics & more..or is it the same thing

What do Navjot Singh Sindhu & Shibu Soren have in common?

1. Beards ! Of course.

2. Aside from being lucky enough to have kept themselves out of jail for almost two decades. And of course managing to get elected, one way or the other...Soren managing to hoodwink, and SIndhu managing to convince his voters that a man who can make them laugh is better than other men who can only swear in Parliament.

3. Of not managing to garner any sympathy for their present predicament, they are brothers in arms again !

4. Of being short sighted ! Of course, they are politicians, politicians require short sightedness so they can claim to be "leaders"

Butt, oops, i meant ....but, jokes apart, why are either of them resigning from the Lok Sabha. After all if mafia dons can operate entire networks from jail, then why cant these two.? Sindhu can always laugh over video conferencing...he doesnt even have to laugh at the punchline...anytime is fine...i mean, thats what he does even now, right? Laughing even when the opening line of a joke is said...

As for Shibubhai....a political party is BEST managed from jail. Lots of precedence for that one. Starting from all those glorious leaders in the pre independence era....and our very own Buffalo man, or is it cows? laloo of course.

And where does cricket come in? Well, it doesnt, i just put it there so all the guys who like Ganguly come and read my rant. And the ones who hate him too. Anyway, since he was selected because his batting average is higher than the rest of the team, I can give one suggestion that should inprove his batting against bouncers. Its simple, really. Weigh down his right elbow with a 10 pound weight...if he cant get it up in the way of the ball, he might get his face smashed in, but he wont get his arm or bat in the way of the ball. As for his face,...well, he has managed to save face for years in the light of very disturbing and probing questions..so i am sure he will manage to save it a few more times too !
have fun, people, crib about all my rants and the uselessness of life, the universe, and everything else.
If you are going to hang yourself immediately after you do that, then send me all your money before you go....and have a safe journey into the afterlife !

The politics of clemency?

With a terrorist being lined up to be hung, we now hear talk of protests and pleas for mercy for him...sometimes, democracy is good for proving that there are plenty of stupid people around.

If they do want him anyway, why dont we try the following

1. Exchange his life for the chief of Jaish E Mohammed, who was released when the plane was hijacked.

2. Ask any of the political leaders to put themselves in line in exchange...after all, the man is valuable to the country, so are the politicians (according to their own claims) and so it should be a fair deal..

3. Put the politicians face to face with the wifes of the men who lost their lives in that attack, lets see how they beg..

4. Replace the terrorost with any one of the MPs that he was trying to kill (thats my choice of a deal!!!)

Whatsay, people ?
