Article 1: Beans prices soar in Chennai
(And we need to pay 250USD to watch an article on this!)

"I've bought beet root, carrot and turnip. I didn't buy beans," said Keerthika, a housewife.
How many Kilos each? comon, these guys dont report NEWS properly...

"Share prices are coming down. Vegetable prices are coming down," said Murugan, a vegetable seller.
Well said Mr Murugan, Air Deccan shares are going down, Beans is part of their cargo, i see the connection...

Article 2: Chicken makes a comeback in Hyderabad
(Chickens can, Ganguly cant, aah thats life!)

"I have come here from Delhi. Just ate the famous Hyderabadi biryani. I am also going to carry the biryani to Delhi," said a chicken lover.
Im sorry we cant say what "chicken lover"'s actual name his, hes on a visit to his chinna veedu/keep in Hyd, but hes very loyal, hes taking the same biryani to Delhi to his wife.

"I missed eating chicken for so many months. But now I am back with it," said another visitor.

"Peas used to be Rs 25 per kilo now it has become Rs 25 rupees for half kilo," said Sunil Kumar, a shopper.

Half kilo peas vangara daugslam conzumeran! God save India!

What do you get from these article (taken from Thalaivar's Arunachalam) : eat beda/junk food... but...

Article 4: Chennai schools crackdown on junk food

The move comes in the wake of a government circular, which says colas, fries, chips and chocolates should be taken off the school canteens.

my big doubt!

Its a pretty common belief that women tend to use the left and more emotional side of the brain and men their right and more logical side of the brain... but is it really that cut and dry? it seems that when it comes to the fares of the heart, theres a battle between what we know and what we feel.

So what do you do when you find yourself in a situation that leaps back and forth between the left and the right side? when it comes to relationships is it smarter to follow your heart or your head?

There is 1 religion in Germany and its called Football...

a statium of 59416 obviously cant accomodate the world. With 1 million flying into Munich for the opening match, and a lager mad Munich crowd, screens are setup all over the place, the biggest in Olympia park. When we went it was 3:40 and we managed to fight in through 6 rounds of security by 5:30, after loading ourselves, found a 10cmX10cm place were we could rest our toes. and goal 1... 1:1 ooohs, 2:1 heys, 3:1, 3:2 and 4:2, i was tried, torn but still with full enthu. forturnately for me (i got lost), i met a cute woman who teaches Indian religion, was talking to her for quite sometime inbetween, having fun. later in the day, when i switched on CNN, i realised that there were more people in the pubs in Muncher Freiheit, im going to get killed there for the next Germany match!

and i kept refreshing

A friend from our Singapore office says i should ask them 20% more time to complete an assignment to compensate the time i spend refreshing my orkut/gmail/yahoo windows. and today i find myself refreshing my blog as well, looking out for comments. its cause of the post below, if i were in India i think i would have had a wonderful verbal.

thanks to the internet my vetti times are even more vetti. now theyve basically boiled down to 6-10 sites of tabbed browsing, orkut, mails, deals2buy and i also keep looking at the rbi conversion rate (its 60 today and im not happy cause i have -(minus) 500EUR in my bank), ndtv/hindu. and its boring, news takes time to develop, i have too much of it. so ive jumped into thinking.

too much thinking these days has been replaced by Sex and the City, marital advices to a lot of people (basically mama velai), hoping for a return someday ;) and searching about a girl. studying in a rowdy school actually helps, 15 min after i told my friend i found a very cute female on Orkut, i knew where her dad was working, and unfortunately as ever for me where her fiancee was working as well. its all in the game.

and with my header checksum working fine, waiting for a call from Singapore, waiting for the rains to stop and waiting for my headache to stop im waiting for a break...
