The Lion hearted captain and his cubs...

I am so glad for Dhoni and the boys in yellow, they came out roaring when it mattered the most! I was so happy for our captain, I was happy to see him smiling and modestly brushing aside comments (regarding the strategic placing of Hayden in the 19th over) saying 'It's no rocket science'. I could have hugged him for his demeanor and charming attitude... and when he said something like I can't wait to lift the cup I felt my heart swelling with joy. You gotta love our captain Dhoni; his grit, his determination, his nerves of steel, his gut feeling and above all his street smartness is what makes him indomitable. He's one of kind and he's awesome... another awesome guy is Raina. I like the way he fields, the catches he takes are amazing and he's pretty great too. Another player everybody has been talking bout is Murali Vijay, a good looking dude... he batted away to glory a few times and won us some crucial matches.

Moving on to other good things in life, the new Limca ad that is doing the rounds is so appealing, the tune is extremely catchy, both the guy and the girl are cute in an ordinary sorta way and the whole ad screams out 'It's summer... go have fun!'


Isn't the guy really cute.... check out his expressions...

Yeah, Dhoni is one of the best captains in indian cricket. Also good to see him leading CSK in all the 3 seasons of IPL. Its a team effort btw.

Raina is simply brilliant on the field and he is a gift to indian cricket. Never seen an indian player catching like him.

Murali Vijay - We(friends) call him Sura Vijay after his top class show in IPL3. Hope he will have a place in the indian squad..

Having said all this i hate IPL. I want it to be banned. Its too much cricket and it has become a crappy business affair. Im not seeing any spirited play. Some say its all match fixing, not sure whether to believe that or not. I love cricket....seeing IPL matches im afraid i may hate cricket.

CSK have done a fantastic job.
With the auctions opening again for next season one can expect lots of changes as both Pune and Kochi would like to bid for our talismanic Dhoni.

Let us wish Team India all the best for the T:20 World Cup.

Cheers,
Mahesh

Tonio, I think this is the only post you read completely without me forcing you to.

Susan, it was nice to be on the wining side :0)

Mahesh, hopefully Dhoni will lift the cup again.

Vinod, I too liked that punch in the face, I wonder what he said to himself when he did that. I liked the way Dhoni flamboyantly finished off that match in that beautiful mountain clad region, it was brilliant.

Nice Ad....

Wouldn't you say so... Nam and me were in this huge clothing store and we were making fun of all the models on display (there was one of hrithik in which he looked kinda gayish) when we came across this one. Seriously, dark people are more better looking....

My school teachers...

So I got to thinking bout my school days recently and it saddened me that I was starting to forget a few teachers who had shaped my life, I have already forgotten nearly half the classmates... though its not my fault. Some people just don't want to join facebook, then how can you find them in this big world. Even if I do find them, there is not much to talk beyond the 'where are you & what are you doing' phrases. But the teachers are another matter, they deserve to be remembered for moulding us. I gotta hand it to the convent school I studied in, they really knew how to select their educators... all the teachers I had shared a genuine passion for teaching and above that they had strong moral values and faith which invariably shaped our lives. To them being a good person was what mattered the most and they made sure we grasped this knowledge, it also helped that I had staunch catholic parents who cemented this view. Anyway, I just wanted to jot down stuff bout my teacher

A tribute to the crazy bunch....

Here are a few picutres that won't find a place in the wedding album... but they were equally (some of them, even more) memorable. Everybody loves sunoj.... I was so happy to see them all...... (first time they were coming to my new place) Sunoj again.... hanging out with this guy is like shopping, ice cream, chocolates... etc. You can't get enough of them. The crazy cousins gave us a very interesting gift... this gift will be with us for six months then it will start its cycle of educating the owners. Though I doubt my cousins need much education in that department. It was fun opening the book and Jardin being the smart guy wanted somethin read from page 69. It was so cute the way Sunoj quickly picked up "The Magic Faraway Tree Series" from the corner and gave me to hold up when Robert uncle walked into the room (turns out he was the one who bought the book). I still remember Robert uncle laughing his head off.... good times. This wa
