its been soo looonnggg!!!!

It's been really really long since I lost posted... but I have been so busy with my band and work and stuff.. that I hardly found time to update my blog. But I doubt if anyone missed it.. :P

So what have I been doing lately??? Wow.. why is it so hard for me all of a sudden.. I just feel so bored to write a post.. anyways... il try to make it quick.. so I have been upto..?? hmmm...

Well at work its the same as usual... The IT Dept chills out in its cold chamber and if necessary when people call just tell them to try 'turning it off and on again'. Yeah that's how Windows work most of the times... so since sometime at work, I have been updating my web engineering skills and am working on a couple of websites, which should go up online soon... Yeah.. so that's pretty much work...

About the band.. its been mad... have been loving it.. well We played our first corporate gig in Oct at Intelenet, Malad. Then Nov 12-14th we were at Strawberry Fields, Bangalore. It was a good time together for the band... we had a good break out of Mumbai.. right after we were back... we had a gig at Bistro Grill in Powai... and soon after we were informed that we been short listed for Moodi.. so had another great night at Blue Frog for Elims.. But we didn't get thru at either of the places, SF or Moodi... but im quite impressed with another band Goddess Gagged.. they were very impressive.. they are a Progressive Rock band... but managed to win against the Metalheads... you can check them out tomorrow as they open for Katatonia at Moodi Livewire.

Well that's all for now.. I guess i better get back at work...

P.S. Since when did blogging get so boring to me???

What Only You Can Do!!

Today I was little upset about a certain incident that happened at my work. When a certain man raised his voice at an innocent salesman who was just doing his job. I was very disturbed with what had happened.. We are so caught up with our own business we rarely do consider others important.. Anyways I came back to my desk.. and put on some Guns N Roses music.. and for some reason it got more depressing. And to make it worse.. it began to rain heavily and the whole scene was very dark and depressing. Just then I switched my songs to Misty Edwards. Now I am not a Misty Edwards Fan.. but i just stumbled upon this particular song.. and I can't believe how comforting it was.. The moment I played this song, my heart was at rest and outside, the rains had stopped and there was this very pleasant sunny view that blessed my heart even more.. So I though it will be nice to share the song with you all.. :)

I'll take my cold, cold heart

I'll take my unrenewed mind

I'll take Your word in my hand

And I'll give You time, to come and melt me

I can't even love You unless You call my name

I can't even worship unless You anoint my heart

I can't een want to unless You want me first

So come fan the flame

Do what only You can do - Come fan the flame

Do what only You can do - Come fan the flame

Do what only You can do - Come fan the flame

Do what only You can do

Just let my heart be alive

Let me be living deep, deep on the inside

Just let my heart be alive

Let me be living deep, deep on the inside

Come fan the flame

The Rupee Logo

So.. at last my country (India) too got its own logo for our currency, viz. the Rupee. I am not sure if that changes anything or if we have become a part of the elite class of people.. But it sure is fun to have a currency logo. Just waiting for MS Windows 8 or the MS Office 13 build to come with our new Rupee Logo... its gonna be fun..

Adam Young - Most Under-rated Musician/Artist

There are times when you come across an artist accidentally.. and you're like "WHOA!!! where were you all this while man??" That's pretty much what I felt when I got introduced to Adam Young. This young Christian lad from Minnesota used to work in a Coca Cola warehouse and compose songs in his parent's basement. Adam used Myspace and CdBaby to distribute his songs, until the record giant "Universal Republic" signed him up in 2007. Adam works under different project names such as Owl City (Synthpop), Sky Sailing (Acoustic), and more... well you can click here to read more about him and about his other projects.

Something about Adam's songs are that they were pleasant to hear and creates this really magical atmosphere around you which just leaves you mesmerized. So I thought I'll just leave behind a few of his beautiful songs for you guys... Enjoy!! :)

OMG!!! No Posts in JUNE????

To all my sincere subscribers and frequent visitors (if I have any) I am really sorry for not updating my blog.. have been crazy busy with work and band.. but I hope to soon write some cool stuff that's happening in my life.. :)

Until then Stay cool and watch out for this space.. :)

Science Vs Faith

An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, The Almighty. He asks one of his new students to stand and.....
Prof: So you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.
Prof : Is God good?
Student:Sure..
Prof: Is God all-powerful?
Student: Yes.
Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is this God good then? Hmm?
(Student is silent.)
Prof:You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fella. Is God good?
Student:Yes.
Prof: Is Satan good?
Student: No.
Prof: Where does Satan come from?
Student:From...God....
Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student:Yes.
Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student:Yes.
Prof: So who created evil?
(Student does not answer.)
Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don't they?
Student:Yes, sir.
Prof: So, who created them?
(Student has no answer.)
Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you.
Tell me, son...Have you ever seen God?
Student:No, sir.
Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?
Student:No, sir.
Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God for that matter?
Student:No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.
Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student:Yes.
Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your GOD doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.
Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.
Student:Professor, is there such a thing as heat?
Prof: Yes.
Student: And is there such a thing as cold?
Prof: Yes.
Student: No sir. There isn't.
(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)
Student : Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don't have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold . Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat . We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy . Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it .(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)
Student:What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?
Student :You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and it's called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't. If it were you would be able to make
darkness darker, wouldn't you?
Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student:Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.
Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student:Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one.To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it.
Now tell me, Professor.Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student:Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?
(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)
Student:Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher? (The class is in uproar.)
Student:Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain?
(The class breaks out into laughter.)
Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain,sir.
With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?
(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable.)
Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.
Student:That is it sir.... The link between man & god is FAITH . That is all that keeps things moving & alive.


That student was none other than our former president Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam...

You Know You Grew Up in India in the 90s When…

I was on Facebook the other day and stumped upon this page 'You Know You Grew Up in India in the 90s When...' and this is the content of that page... its just too beautiful to miss if you were indeed one of those who grew up during the 90s... :)

You Know You Grew Up in India in the 90s When…

1) You know the words to ‘In-pin-safety-pin’ and ‘akkad-bakkad’ by heart

3) You have read at least some Chacha Chaudhary or Tinkle comics

4) You’ve watched Shaktimaan on TV at least once in your life. And you can immediately recognize the character when you see him.

32) You remember the Gujarat earthquake very clearly and could possibly tell everyone EXACTLY what you were doing when the earthquake occurred (yes, this happened in 2001, January 26, 2001, to be exact — but this group is about the things that Indian kids that GREW UP in the 90s remember and identify with).

33) Barbies for girls, and GI Joes for boys were the ultimate status symbols. You just wanted more more more and more. And how can I forget Hot Wheels, for both boys and girls?

34) You thought ‘imported’ clothes were definitely way better than ‘made in India’ clothes (never mind that a lot of clothes brought from overseas by NRI relatives were actually made in India, before ‘Made in China’ started appearing on EVERY existing thing)

35) "Jungle Jungle Baat Chali Hai Pata Chala Hai! Chaddi Pehen Ke Phool Khila Hai Phool Khila Hai!"

48) You used to Fuzen gum. You also chewed Big (big) Babool and/or Boom Boom Boomer chewing gum. They were bright pink and disgusting tasting, but you loved them for the temporary tattoos.

59) When all backpacks (or ’schoolbags’) and water bottles and tiffin boxes had strange cartoon characters that were hybrid versions of seven or eight different characters, and you still bought them, because a green man wih a water pistol, boots, a jet-pack, Johnny bravo hair, a rajasthani mustache, gloves, and underwear (long johns) over his pants, called ‘Mr. X’ was OBVIOUSLY a status symbol.

60) You remember the Nirma tikia jingle.

61) You remember the Nirma girl.

62) You remember the ‘doodh doodh piyo glass full doodh’ ad and also the ‘laal kaala peela, gulabi hara neela classic hai badia bristles wala’ and 'roz khao ande' ads.

63) You grew up reading, if you read at all, some or all of Nancy Drews, Enid Blyton books, Hardy Boys, Babysitters Club, Animorphs, Goosebumps, Sweet Valley series, Judy Blumes, and Tintin, or Archie comics. Because naturally, reading foreign authors made you much cooler than reading Tinkle.

64) Towards the late 90s (1998-99) at least some of us started our Harry Potter obsessions!

66) You watched the Bournvita Quiz contest on TV pretty religiously. The smarter ones amongst you actually took part in it and had your entire school and your entire extended families watch you on it!

70) You remember parzan dastur sayin "JALEBI!!!!" in the Dhara Ad

71) You eagerly awaited Friendship Day, so you could give friendship bands to all your friends, and get bands from them in return. Then, of course, those with the most bands loved to show them off.

72) Backstreet Boys' "Quit Playing Games" was one of the first English songs that you LOVED!

73) Andaz Apna Apna is and most probably will always be your favorite comedy flick!! "Aila Jhakaas!!!"


And I miss that age, it was sooo awesome!

They walk among us!!

These are some of the most stupidest moments in history...

Some guy bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: 'Free to good home. You want it, you take it...' For three days the fridge sat there without anyone looking twice. He eventually decided that people were too mistrustful of this deal. So he changed the sign to read: 'Fridge for sale $50.'
The next day someone stole it!

They walk amongst us!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I stopped at Mc Donald's and ordered some fries.
The girl behind the counter said "would you like some fries with that?"

They walk amongst us!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when someone shouted....
'Look at that dead bird!'
Someone looked up at the sky and said...'where?'

They walk amongst us!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While looking at a house, my brother asked the estate agent which direction was north because he didn't want the sun waking him up every morning.
She asked, 'Does the sun rise in the north?'
My brother explained that the sun rises in the east and has for sometime.
She shook her head and said, 'Oh, I don't keep up with all that stuff.......'

They walk amongst us!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

My colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we overheard an admin girl talking about the
sunburn she got on her weekend drive to the beach.
She drove down in a convertible, but said she 'didn't think she'd get sunburned because the car was moving'.

They walk amongst us!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car which is designed to cut through a seat belt if she gets trapped.
She keeps it in the car trunk.

They walk amongst us!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring attached to an earring by a chain. My friend said, 'Ouch! The chain must rip out every time she turns her head!"
I had to explain that a person's nose and ear remain the same distance apart no matter which way the head is turned....

They walk amongst us!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area and went to the lost luggage office and reported the loss.
The woman there smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and said I was in good hands.
'Now,' she asked me, 'Has your plane arrived yet?'....
(I work with professionals like this.)

They walk amongst us!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and
the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time then said 'Just cut it into 4 pieces;
I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces.

They walk amongst us!

Truly... A Class Apart...

For sometime I was wondering what do I post next on my blog.. Now... I am not a person who spends a lot of time on forwarded mails.. or ever interested in sports whatsoever... and though I am an Indian, I am not a fan of Cricket. But there is this one person who I really admire and that's Sachin. Not because he is a world class player, because he is a man of character. It is truly difficult to find someone of that stature. So when I got this email from my cousin, I thought I had to post it here...

Nothing bad can happen to us if we're on a plane in India with Sachin Tendulkar on it.
- Hashim Amla, the South African batsman, reassures himself as he boards a flight.

"Sometimes you get so engrossed in watching batsmen like Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar that you lose focus on your job."
- Yaseer Hameed in pakistani newspaper.

"To Sachin, the man we all want to be"
- Andrew Symonds wrote on an aussie t-shirt he autographed specially for Sachin.

“Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there is something we don't know, something beyond scientific measure. Something that allows him to soar, to roam a territory of sport that, forget us, even those who are gifted enough to play alongside him cannot even fathom. When he goes out to bat, people switch on their TV sets and switch off their lives."
- BBC on Sachin.

"Tuzhe pata hai tune kiska catch chhoda hai?"
- Wasim Akram to Abdul Razzaq when the latter dropped Sachin's catch in 2003 WC.

Sachin is a genius. I'm a mere mortal.
- Brian Charles Lara.

"We did not lose to a team called India ...we lost to a man called Sachin."
- Mark Taylor, during the test match in Chennai (1997)

"The more I see of him the more confused I'm getting to which is his best knock."
- M. L. Jaisimha

"The joy he brings to the millions of his countrymen, the grace with which he handles all the adulation and the expectations and his innate humility - all make for a one-in-a-billion individual,"
- Glen McGrath

"I can be hundred per cent sure that Sachin will not play for a minute longer when he is not enjoying himself. He is still so eager to go out there and play. He will play as long as he feels he can play,"
- Anjali Tendulkar

Question: Who do you think as most important celebrity ?
Shah Rukh Khan: There was a big party where stars from bollywood and cricket were invited. Suddenly, there was a big noise, all wanted to see approaching Amitabh Bachhan. Then Sachin entered the hall and Amitabh was leading the queue to get a grab of the GENIUS!!
- Shah Rukh Khan in an interview.

He can play that leg glance with a walking stick also.
- Waqar Younis

Sachin Tendulkar has often reminded me of a veteran army colonel who has many medals on his chest to show how he has conquered bowlers all over the world. I was bowling to Sachin and he hit me for two fours in a row. One from point and the other in between point and gully. That was the last two balls of the over and the over after that we (SA) took a wicket and during the group meeting i told Jonty (Rhodes) to be alert and i know a way to pin Sachin. And i delivered the first ball of my next over and it was a fuller length delevery outside offstump. And i shouted catch. To my astonishment the ball was hit to the cover boundary. Such was the brilliance of Sachin. His reflex time is the best i have ever seen. Its like 1/20th of a sec. To get his wicket better not prepare. Atleast u wont regret if he hits you for boundaries.
- Allan Donald

On a train from Shimla to Delhi , there was a halt in one of the stations. The train stopped by for few minutes as usual. Sachin was nearing century, batting on 98. The passengers, railway officials, everyone on the train waited for Sachin to complete the century. This Genius can stop time in India !!
- Peter Rebouck - Aussie journalist

"Sachin cannot cheat. He is to cricket what (Mahatma) Gandhiji was to politics. It's clear discrimination. "
- NKP Salve, former Union Minister when Sachin was accused of ball tempering

There are 2 kind of batsmen in the world. One Sachin Tendulkar. Two all the others.
- Andy Flower

"I have seen god, he bats at no.4 for India "
- Mathew Hayden

For the Love of Ireland!!!

Hey people.. there is this really beautiful blog I just came across on the web.. if anyone of you truly love Ireland and miss being with her.. this is an awesome treat... :D

http://irelandgo.blogspot.com/

So Weird!!

I was just browsing thru the web for a book that I wanted to gift my friend, and I stumbled upon this church website.. I have no idea how do they have over a 100,000 congregation attending their church. It's the most weirdest church with the most weirdest belief ever... I think church is a place for fellowship, to be counseled, corrected and comforted. But I do not see anything other than criticism, condemnation, and fines in this church... yeah you read it right.. there is no grace in this church. You commit something wrong and you pay US$500 as fine... weird!! really weird!!!

I have copied excerpts from their beliefs below, Check out this link for more of it.. http://www.landoverbaptist.org/beliefs.html

We do not read, eat, consume, digest, or 'try on' any product that is not made and manufactured by born-again, Bible believing, Fundamentalist Baptist Christians, and we would have you know that we condemn anyone that does, and pray as King David did, 'against them' for a quick end and a speedy journey to a very hot place, where they can spend out all eternity honoring our Lord and Maker in a literal lake of fire, Amen. Please find our site a blessing.!

We believe that when a person first gets saved, the first thing they should do is buy a suit and a tie. If the individual is a female, then a dress not raised over an inch above the knee is acceptable. Clothing is perhaps the most important thing about being a Christian. If one is not properly clothed and fully representative of what God would want them to appear like... well then, that person is probably not saved. Our motto is "get saved, get to a Christian Clothing store, and get fitted for the kingdom." Anyone who does not conform to the dress code at Landover Baptist will be fined no less than $300.00 a violation

Our pastor sometimes uses his godly authority to invoke the Lord's Law from the Bible in Leviticus. This is sometimes too much for some folks. If they refuse punishment, then they have the option of paying a $500.00 fine plus expenses accrued by the planning committee of Levitical Law Implementation.

If you haven't cracked a Bible in a few years... then Landover is not for you.

The following violations will result in a monetary fine of no less than $200.00 as to be determined by Church Pastors and Elders: Failure to show up at church on time, Failure to attend a church service without written permission from a pastor or other agreed upon authority, Church parking lot violations, Single males or females caught in the houses of members of the opposite sex without proper supervision, out after curfew... and more (check the website)

You will want to make your reservations 2 years in advance for any service where head Pastor, Deacon Fred is preaching. (Please be patient, we are booked solid) Cost is $75.00 per person

I AM SO GLAD I DO NOT BELONG TO LANDOVER BAPTIST CHURCH

hhhmmm.... Interesting...

So I had this thought running in my head today.. and I thought (thought again??) why not share it here on my blog... so if at all someone accidentally stumbles onto my page, they can be part of this insight I am sharing on this little public space here.

I have realized today, that when you ask someone for a favor, there are only 2 answers you can expect - Yes or No. But nobody tells you that upfront. They make a lot of excuses before you know you gotta find someone else to do the job. And I have come to learn of it that there can be only 2 reasons why someone wouldn't want to help you out when you need them to -

1. They are really not available
2. They really don't wanna do it.

There are no other explanations other than the 2 I have mentioned above. And I have further cleared it out by coming to the conclusion, most of the time it is because of the kinda person we are and the bond that we share with them. If you are the greatest pal they ever got (or at least try to be one) they will totally love you for who you are. And before you know it, they would have walked an extra mile for you..

Oh yeah.. but to be that 'great friend', you gotta walk the first mile with them... ;)
So wish you this new year that you would be a great friend to your pals and stand by them all through it... :)

Happy New Year 2010!!

Heyyyllllllooooo Everyone!!!!!!!
Wish you all a Happy New Year.. this year... 2010!!!
Alright I ain't got any hangover from the previous night.. just being whack... :P
So after a really long time I am back to some serious (not so much) blogging... looking forward for this year to be more fun filled, adventurous, romantic (ooooooooo...), hilarious, and blah blah blah!!!!
