Mother of all Sports - good to go!!!

Muhammad Ali once said and I quote "I hated every minute of training, but I said, "Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion." Ask any sportsmen and h/she will agree to the fact! 

No matter how good you are...... "To be on top of your game, one needs to be insanely disciplined! After all at this level - EVERY SECOND COUNTS!

Not for nothing is Olympic called the Mother of all sports. 
Where friends off the field are at war during the event! 
But this time around its just not a war, London Olympics 2012 is bound to break hearts, it will equally send nations on cloud 9. 




Sportsmen to look forward too..... 

Usain Bolt. - Jamican who is on brink to break his own record.
Roger Federer - Shy away from winning his first ever Olympic Gold. 
Michael Phillip - only if he wins 4 medals this time around, he will hold world record of 20 Olympic medals. 
And last but not least India - as a nation who has potential to surpass - Carl Lewis record of 9gold medals. :P  

Truth be told, though India have nominations in Tennis, Shooting, Weightlifting and many other team / individual sports, but I'll be rooting for Badminton trio.... 

Saina Nehwal, Ashwini Ponappa and sizziling Jwala Guta. 
Girls hope you win the battle of cocks! ;-))

Tattoo a craze or TABOO?

There are two sorts of people; one who have tattoos and second those who hate people with tattoos. ;-))

I for one never had any fascination or attraction about tattoos.

The body is a fine piece of art already and yet why damage?

But, over the years we the people change and so dose the thinking!

People have million reasons to go behind the ink.


Tattoo no matter of which design; -
It carries a meaning and tell something about the person and his or her background, belief.

Tattoo should represent personal expression and not youthful impulse leave alone drunken mistake.









Tattoos are for the ordinary people with one extraordinary thing – They are "rebellious" by nature who are ready to go against the set of rules laid down by the society.


Tattoo also gives a different KICK btw!


Yes, the sound of the machine, seeing / experiencing of needle go in and out of your body thousand times is worth a case. 


Make no mistake though "Good tattoos aren't cheap, cheap tattoos arent good!"

Woo Phir nahe atte! RIP.

“Zindagi aur maut uparwale ke hath hai jahapana, jise na aap badal sakte hai na mein… "KAB KAUN KAISE UTHEGA YE KOI NAHI JANTA..”



His rise to superstardom in Indian Cinema was like a movie script.
Came to the land of dreams – as a struggler and then what followed is what we call HISTORY!


RK at one point delivered 15 consecutive solo superhits between 1969 – 72, the record is still unbroken!


The first superstar of Indian Cinema also gave some sought after musical hits …

WOO PHIR NAHE ATTE! HOW TRUE IT WAS?

It remains one of the most profound song / lyric I have ever heard....

Zindagi ke safar mein, guzar jate hain jo makam                                 Woh phir nahin aate, woh phir nahin aate!


And this line from third versa is OUTRIGHT BEST!

Aadmi theek se dekh paata nahin,
Aur parde pe manzar badal jaata hai.

Pushpa now has every reason to cry....... 
  
RIP - KOR (King of Romance)

I wish it was JULY - 28 :-)))

Shouldn't be just one, leave aside two "IF NOT TEN!!!" ;-)))

Drink till you crash. 
Commit to the core.  
 In case of a doubt, 
Remember the "OATH!"

BTW,

If you have ever opened a Heineken bottle for someone else before you, YOU ARE LEGENDARY!!! ;-))

Sunday to witness.. "A Poetry in motion!" :-))

Win for Fedex against arch rival and World's no1 Djokwich was nothing short of a revenge. The semi final was indeed a final before the final....

In the second semi final Andy Murray created history! Finally after 74 years Brits would see their own kid taking a center stage @ All England club. 


Stakes are high for both these players. As one enters his first Wimbledon final, the other knows its a race against the time...


The final on Sunday is the match between Britain's favorite kid VS World's Best Tennis player. 


No more "MY BAD" Fedex.

Better win tomorrow and make it Grand slam no. 


SEVENTEEEEEN!!!

Kiss of Life!!!

Before last night Italy indeed relished a joyful ride but later it was followed by a MASSIVE DESPAIR! Something like Marriage ;-))

On the otherhand Spanish 11 dominated the game right from the word go. As they trounced Italy 4 - 0 in European Championship final on Sunday.

Spain now is the first team TO HAVE WON ALL THREE MAJOR TITLES IN A ROW....

Euro 2008,
World cup 2010
Euro 2012


The hat-trick of titles is an unprecedented feat for this European team! 

Congratulations for new CROWN! - Spain
