DAVID HAYE lost to Vladmir Klitschko on points after 12rounds in Hamburg. Haye (also known as Hayemaker) had filled columns of newsparer columns with pre-match bravaddo, sometimes shameful about how he was going to knowck out Vladmir. However, following his disgraceful loss, he blamed his toe...saying a toe on his right foot got broken 3weeks before the boxing match, hence he could not land his killer punch! Obviously, this generated a lot of jokes from twitter followers and the following are some of them.....1) From #hayemaker to #toemaker2) David Haye: "Apologies to amm my fans, my toe couldn't land the killer punch."3) Hey coach, I couldn't beat him with my mouth or my toe, maybe next time I try to punch him? 4) My ego is cashing cheques my toe can't cash..."5) I am disappoin-toed with the outcome of the fight. #teamhaye

Darren Aronofsky's "Black Swan" posted on January 23, 2011 - 12:03am

I just watched Black Swan with a female friend a few hours ago. It is about a young girl Nina Sayers (Natalie Portman) who works hard to perfection, in order to fulfil her dream as ballerina. I must say, the movie itself is both rubbish and brilliant! Her mother Erica (Barbara Hershey) is a controlling mum, a somehow twisted character. She gave up her dream to care for Nina, and in a sense, while Erica doesn’t want her daughter to screw up; she is living her unfinished dream through Nina. After all she had been taking Nina for dance classes ever since she was a young child. . It is a tragedy that children sometimes have to live the unfulfilled dreams of their parents!!

Slept a friend's place last night...it her house warming kinda thing...and it turns out that since she didnt have anything in the frigde..Therefore all the three of us had in the morning was hot cup of tea, and some conversation. Nothing else!Well our conversation drifted from this topic to that topic...and for some weird reason, Arjun talked about his trip back home to India a few months ago when he was promoted from business class to first class because of the many air miles he had accumulated! Obviously he talked about how short the trip was, with all the excellent treatment. You could see he had never had that kind of treatment before. That is not to say I was not a tad jealous. With his baby-ish face, an air hostess easily mistook him for a kid who is travelling without his parents, but he cut her short by saying he works for the oil and gas industry....and then requesting for his drink!

The truth is infront of me! posted on April 24, 2009 - 11:58am

In one of those days when I felt particularly patriotic (Yes, I am a good student), I stumbled across Don’s Wanyama’s blog, was laughed hysterically when I read the African proverb on at the top of his page “However much the buttocks are in a hurry, they will always remain behind.”... I thought that was very funny! It made my mind go in a few circles, wondering of the many people who are on a road going nowhere...and thus will always be left behind! But that is fodder for another day! I was impressed by Don’s analysis of the Teddy Cheeye’s debacle and the source of his perceived arrogance. But one thing that took my particularly attention, when at the emd of the article, he asked the question “...can we say the time to shake the status quo has begun? Or was he a mere sacrificial lamb??”

Dance school.... posted on November 11, 2008 - 1:08am

I am an avid dance fan! These days I have taken to waltz, ballroom and tango. I am doing Argentine tango in one school onFridays and ballroom dance in another. I have done a little bit of salsa, but it was during a very busy period of my life so i didnt learn much.Now I have failed to coerce, cajole or convince a girl to go with as a partner! yeah, Iknw you will all say I am not that smooth! But guess what,I get to dance with the teacher. The last two weeks, I have gotten to dance with thedance-teachers best student. Infact she told me that the dance teacher is her god-mother. The girl herself is training to be a dance teacher, dance is her passion, she actually quit college to pursue dance..blah blah! She has got the moves,looks...almost everything except that she has a Geordie accent! Hopefully I will be ableto work around that! I will find out about her beliefs later.....

I googled myself! posted on November 9, 2008 - 12:41am

I am sure most you guys use Facebook? Chances are that you must have heard of Compare, that Facebook application. The risky assumption I am making here is that you, dear blogger, are very media (or rather internet) savvy. Whether or not you use it is another question, after all we are bombarded with all the applications which actually ever add value to our lives, whether in monetary of entertainment value! The one thing most of these applications do is waste our time. Yet we have only 24 hours a day! Now, the Compare application has a fine way of advertising itself. They say.......“It's a pyramid of how many people trust the people that trust you. And the people that trust them - it goes pretty far. This number also means that if you wanted to send a message or thought to the whole world, these are the people who would accept your message as trustworthy, because they have faith in people who have faith in you. Think of it as your influence and reach.”

Ratios:A lesson in maths! posted on November 1, 2008 - 1:30am

It’s amazing what ladies want! That movie “What Women Want “in which Mel Gibson starred in was quite a classic. I mean the title was confusing enough; you would dash to watch because you think it would help you sort out all the mystery. But when you go to the cinema, with a knowing smile on your face, thinking...”maybe, just maybe this time...”, and alas, you get disappointed...like you do when you watch many of the current movies! On a rather random note, I am going for a potential date on Sunday to watch the new James Bond movie, Quantum ofSolace, and am hoping she says she will inform me tomorrow, but somehow I think she will say yes! My my gut feeling is that it is over rated and over hyped..like most things with a British link!

Famous quotes!!! posted on September 28, 2008 - 10:31pm

This is one of the greatest quotes to ever emerge from the annals of criminal court history....right here in our backyard!!! Who said these words?? “We submit that this whole case is and was a fabrication from beginning to end, calculated to embarrass KB. This sad case was born in the deluded mind of Ms JK, it was nurtured and developed in SH. It was cooked to imperfection in the DIC of the UP. It was presented into full inadequacy by the DepDPP. Now it’s courts time to dismiss it.”
