Ride in the Rain

It was a real fun driving in ECR with rain pouring continuously. Today, I hardly had a clear vision and with my whole body covered with rain coat i had a different experience of riding my bike. Raising the speed made the water droplets falling onto my skin with rapid force and so i couldn't move more than 40km/hr.
I saw a tea shop and halted my bike for a while and had a hot tea. Though the taste was not that good, the hot with steam from the glass in such a weather made my five rupees worthy. Everytime when i cross a bridge the wind was too violent that i had to hold my handle bar more tight and stiff.. At some places i had a fear that i may lose my control... But the lonely ride made me more independent and relaxed...

The Ashes Fever

The Ashes Fever has started from this week and well what a start to prove again that the contest is between the cricket's oldest rivalry.Wicket in the first over by Australia and then two gutsy fifties followed by a hat trick by Peter Siddle on his birthday.
The last season which happened in 2009 was a celebration for the English people though with an unfortunate departure of Flintoff from Test Cricket after that wonderful series for him. I don't think Engand is missing him anyway as they got a balanced team to give enough pressure to the underdog Aussies.
Unusually, Australians didn't ignite the verbal war before the start of this series. May be they are feeling the heat to face England with not much confidence and form among the players.What ever... Its time for England to retain the trophy and make punter to prepare his resume...

Casino at Black hawk,Colorado

Today i went to play Casino at Black Hawk with my team mates. It was an hour drive from my place. First time i went in a convertible car and the sunny day with cool wind made the drive more comfortable.
We were in the town at 830 am and the first casino we went was Red Dolly. It was not as big as i expected. Not many people were there as we were early. I was looking at how my team mates were playing initially. Then i started picking up some random slots. i lost $3 there in Red Dolly.
Then we moved to Gilpin Hotel Casino. There i played with $10 at different slots and made $35 gaining $15. i was so happy and as we moved to the next casino i think its Golden Casino or something, i was tempted to play with more dollars and i invested all the $35 and could end up with only $20 in hand.
By the time we decided to end up the playing it was 2 pm. i was surprised. This game is eating up the time. Though i didn't make any money it was fun. I like it.
Had i been to US for a long term i might be spending a Saturday a month in this, playing at least with $75.
The music that the Casino machine makes is tempting us to play more invest more... Feeling like i want to visit Vegas soon... :)

Allah Rakha Rahman- You are truely my god...

This man A R Rahman, i want to ask him 'from did you come?? where have you been all these days?? '.. i just love him because of his music.. This evening just after coming from office i felt really depressed due to some personal reasons. i felt very lonely. As Rajni says jovially 'i was cornered' kind of feeling... With no other work i could concentrate i just started hearing this guy's music. Oh man... no words to explain the feeling i had.. i was so happy and felt really ecstatic myself for no god damn reason.
This is not the first time i have this kind of feeling because of his music. But then today its something extra ordinary. When ever i am in trouble he is there to rescue me. His music is more than enough for me to face any difficulty in my life.
Rahman.. You are my god.. I love you so much...

I am in The USA for first time

Its been a month i came here to Denver for a short term business assignment. This is the first place i am staying outside my motherland. I love this beautiful greenish city.

The company has given me a luxurious double bedroom apartment with almost all the facilities like WiFi connection, refrigerator, washing machine and cushion firm mattress, television with cable etc..

Just behind the apartment there is a park to hang out with. i am not sure about the name but i can tell you its the perfect park to relax yourself after the tiresome work at office.

Obviously without car its very difficult to manage here. But my manager Sreenath stays with me in the apartment who is taking me to the stores nearby to buy groceries and help me in.

I can tell you that i have come at the right season to USA as the climate is almost like Indian climate but of course not with such unbearable humidity as in India. I can say the Denver climate is like Woman's mind. You can see the sun, rain, breeze and cold everything in a single day and you cannot guess how it would be at any point of time.

The city cleanliness is amazing with flowers and grass along the road. I cannot find a single flaw with the facilities the Colorado government has provided to the people.

Having told all these, there is one thing that's bugging me since i am here. It the Liveliness. I don't know whether its because i am alone here without my friends and my beloved one. i don't see any college or school guys roaming along the street just like in India. I don't see much couples having a relaxed walk. All i can see is some girls and ladies coming out with their dogs to let it shit outside.

Next time when i come to USA i wish i should be with my wife to have a great time here than being alone.

My Laptop has completed one year of Service

I could say Laptop as my second costliest purchase i made on my salary till date. I always had a good image on DELL as most of my colleagues gave good feedback. So without any confusion i went for DELL and purchased directly through DELL representative. Now i am completely satisfied with its performance except that i didnt use it effectively till date.

As most of us do, I used it for hearing music, watching movies, cricket matches online and some useless browsing. Every time when i think i want to do something with it i always fail.

I must get complete satisfaction within next one year with the way i use it. Lets see...

Horrible Cloudless days in Chennai

Every year, during the summer time in chennai i use to hear from people or even i personally feel that this summer heat is unbearable compared to last summer. Some few years back it would be like only during the 'Agni Natchathiram' days the temperature would reach the peak. Then it slides down. But now i feel the whole summer from April to July looks like 'Agni Natchathiram' days.

To me its unbearable. The blistering sun seems to be violent to us. I get drenched if i walk for just five minutes in the radiant sunlight. Sometimes my heart beat increases because of the sweat. I could sense i get more anger without any fair reason. Though i take coconut water whenever possible, i am getting addicted to cool drinks.

Air conditioner has become a mandatory equipment to bye pass the summer.Again this instrument does not come for the free of cost. Air Conditioner has some share in increasing the global warming. If this continues i wonder how chennai (or india i can say) would be after five or six years? What if at one stage the whole place get ablaze when temperature goes out of control.

We as a people must take precarious action to fight against the heat. We must bring a green revolution vehemently. As much possible Air Conditioner must be avoided as it further affects the global warning apart from giving comfort to us. Instead we have many other natural ways of keeping the room cool.

God must save us.

I bought Reebok Shoe!!

Three days back i bought Reebok Shoe for Rs 3500. Its a very high budget canvas to me,but then i went for it as i had Reebok gift voucher for Rs 2500. Never in my life i worn a branded shoe. Now i decided i wont go out of branded shoe or chappals for that case in the future. I am feeling such level of comfortability and weightlessness from Reebok.

Go for branded materials guys. It pays you the comfort for the money you pay.

Why is that Chaaya at Nair kadai always tasty?

I always wonder when it comes to tea kadai, Nair Tea Kadai is what comes to my mind. I remember in my college days, we would have our evening tea at Manikandan tea shop at Radha nagar, chromepet which is a Nair kadai.That time one glass tea was 3 Rs and SP Tea was 5 Rs. Now probably it would have got doubled. But the tea would a top class one.

Now i am residing at Thiruvanmiyur. Again here i am finding a Nair tea shop which stands outstanding among our other tea shops.

Why is that Nair's Tea is so special?

What Dhoni can do? He is at his best

Day before yesterday, Indian cricket once again faced a humiliating exit from World Cup T20 2010. Certainly India does not deserve to qualify for the semi final which i could sense in the way they bowled and fielded in all the three matches of Super 8 league.

After reading the interviews and comments by the Senior cricketers, i really dont understand why almost everyone blast at Dhoni? I feel the squad that went to play some sensible cricket, had only Dhoni apart from Raina who has put all his 100% effort.Gambhir's running between the wickets, yuvraj's fielding, Zaheer Khan's pathetic bowling, Vijay's thoughtless batting and worst of all an unwatchable fielding by the entire team has left the team down.

But i wonder what Dhoni can do? His captaincy on the field was good and he always stands as an example in both batting and fielding. What else can we expect from a Captain. Its the responsibility of each team member to take it seriously and play. The body language of Yuvraj and Gambhir clearly shows they are not giving their 100%.Same is the case of other players too.

And where did the IPL came here? We had a very worst experience in World Cup 2007 at the same Carribean and there was no IPL those days. Players from every country are playing IPL. Take Sri lanka for example. More than half of their players have played in IPL and now they are in semi final. IPL is again a cricket tournament. Blaming IPL is a very lame excuse that anyone can give.

BCCI must first appoint coaches exclusively for bowling and fielding. They must build at least two grounds in India with bouncy and fast pitch. Players must be trained to play pull shot well in Ranji Trophy level.

I hope India will come back in the Next World cup well with all the necessary changes needed in their side
