KingMaker !

Assembly polls in Bihar were truly entertaining. The whole exercise of polls in Bihar are usually a mockery of democracy and a farce, but Mr Ram Vilas Paswan has just added a new dimension. He is the kingmaker now. And look at his cunning! He went through the process of elections, campaigning and now that there's hung assembly, he has the nerves to play hard ball and demand presidents rule ! Why? he quotes ideological differences with both RJD and NDA, but every deaf, blind and dumb Indian on electoral roll knows he needs more time to bargain a good deal. A railway ministry berth, Oust Laloo and family, and Snub NDA by asking for muslim CM..now thats what I call being a Kingmaker who can bake a cake, get an icing done, have it and eat it too !!

New Look!

yes, my blog sports a new look. I was too bored with the old one. I opted for a standard blogger template, it looks sporty, hip and yet suits a married man;-) I hope I can justify the new look and be more regular at posting tit bits from the weeks gone by!

Say Cheese!

Honesty is a virtue. After Marriage I am trying to be more honest. It pays, you know, accpet your mistakes and save hassles or pay the price! Otherwise also I am being honest with myself these days. I have accepted the fact that I have put on some extra kilos (10 Kgs extra to be exactly honest!) and badly need to shed them. I have started some honest efforts at reducing intake (food) and increasing outflow (sweat) by giving up on yummies and picking up my latest hobby of playing basketball respectively. AK (my wifey) is good at basket ball and she is giving me some tips at being nimble footed on the court. It is a addictive game indeed, especially the shooting part :-) Though she keeps shouting at me for running my ass around the court more than just standing and aiming at the ring with one eye shut and toungue peeping out the corner of the lips. But its fun to play on basket ball court at night in floodlights and that too just the two of us..Infact thats quite romantic! ever heard of romantic basket ball! Dream team will commiy mass sucide if they read this...Anyway, I hope to improve on my dribbling and shooting very soon...and I will beat AK at her own game..maan she is good in dribbling..and yes will shed those layers of flab too !
BTW, these few extra kilos have given a whole new meaning to the photographers catch phrase "Say Cheese"! You ought to flash your dentures when someone shoots thru lense at you and is about to click ( btw, ever noticed that your eyelids are craving to blink at that precise moment?) but for me "Say cheese" means inhale deeply and hold your tummy in until you hear a thanks. Needless to say that you cant give a good smile while you are holding your breath (try that right now!)..so folks crux of the story is that I look like a man in desparate need of potty in most of my wedding n H-moon snaps. Thanks to cheese, It has cheesed me off!
