Jan is long so is a Grandslam

It's been a boring week with nothing much to do at the office than listening to the recent stories of layoff's by Microsoft, Maxwell Semiconductors, Sasken etc. You never know when it hits you so until it hits you just go back and relax and listen to the Australian Open commentary on the radio.


Currently my earphones are plugged ofcourse into my ears and listening to the match between Rafa and Verdasco, the SF at Rod Laver Arena. Those commentators are really doing a good job and they keep the game quite interesting to hear it on the radio and you just get a feeling that you are seeing the match Live. Add to it they also read e-mails, add their views and insights to the game. The one good thing I like about any commentary is you learn a lot about the game. Concentrate on the history they are talking to and that's how you build your knowledge on the sport. If you want to watch any stupid game that you have got no idea about, be it American Football, Baseball, Rugby, Golf or even Fencing listen to what those guys are screaming at the box. My strengths Cricket and Tennis which you must have known by now.

Before turning on the AO radio I was listening to Nickelback - Rockstar and the lyrics are good if you haven't seen them and the song is awesome. Takes a while to appreciate the Rock music if you are not that rebellious type. You can say what kind of a person is he by knowing the type of music is he currently listening to. It is so true.

Surprised Bhupathi/Mirza pair is doing so good. Even more surprised Bhupathi is doing good in doubles too. Paes is going well with his doubles partner too. I thought they both have well past their prime. And Mirza never reached her prime so there is no question of her passing it.

To talk about sports still, David Beckham plays for AC Milan. If that is not news, then his Italian teammates who believe that touching something will bring good luck to them, touches Bekcham's bum to do well in that match. Beckham must have insured it. J-Lo was the first person to get her bum insured. What part in a girl would like to touch if she liberally allows you to do so when you say touching something will bring you lady luck ? Could be a nice trick to employ but protect your cheeks for safety by closing them with both your hands after dropping the request.


And to brighten up your day, recollect your school rhyme "Johnny Johnny - yes papa". Modified version of it by taking a dig on disgraced former Satyam CEO B. Ramalinga Raju which I've found it on the net is below.

Raju Raju,
Yes papa.
Cheating us,
No papa.
Telling Lies,
No papa.
Open the balance sheet,
HA HA HA !!!
