Summer vacations for Hon'ble High Courts

With courts, cars and houses air-conditioned, why do HCs need summer vacation? PIL asks: http://m.timesofindia.com/articleshow/20171558.cms

I cant stop laughing...Ha...Ha...Ha

Today's Times of India reports:"CSK bag Fair Play Award".............Ha...Ha....Ha....
By the way, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are owned by Mr. Srinivasan proprietor of the ACC (and, as some allege, by his 'enthusiastic' son-in-law Mr. Gurunath)

How 'fast' are the 'fast-track courts'?

Wonder what is the present status of the case against the accused in the horrible incident of rape and killing in Delhi in December 2012?

Feel vertically challenged....

Do you know that Nicole Kidman is 5ft-10-1/2 inches tall and Maria Sharapova 6'-2"...

Mr Ratn Tata as PM of India.....

Why not have Mr.Ratan Tata as the next PM of India....

Ah, that Karan Johar...

Let me take it off my chest.

I cant stand Karan Johar.

Yes he directed some very sweet films at a rather young age. But then started the problem. He tried to do a mid course career correction and tried to become a Tv presenter. His "Coffee with Karan" episodes were just passable.

Thereafter, instead of improving, he started deteriorating. His programmes on the 100 years of Bollywood are just awful. He has a mistaken notion that he is very charming , handsome, well dressed and possesses a great wit. Unfortunately neither of these is true.

Mr. Karan Johar, take the advice of this old man and return to directing films.....

P.S. I love the Nescafe ad where Deepika Padukone's young unknown neighbour puts him in his proper place. Of course hats off to Karan Johar for agreeing to get exposed in that ad.

Did something today....something that I should have started doing the day I crossed 70....I managed to loose my car keys, inside my house...


Tense, worried, upset? Hell no....


I promptly cancelled my appointment with the dentist, have switched on the TV and am watching an old Julia Roberts film sipping some lassi...

Yes, I am in no hurry to find my car keys....

Women are the superior sex

Remember the shocking case of a lady young athlete who was thrown out of a running train for resisting chain snatching about two years back...sadly one of her legs had to be amputated..

Now she has shown the world what Indian women are made of....She has become the first Indian and the world's first woman to to have conquered Mt. Everest with a prosthetic leg...

Bravo Ms. Arunima Sinha!

He is a jolly good fella...

The visiting Chinese Prime Minister smiles here and cracks a joke there and we are swept off our feet and conclude that he is a jolly good fella... ...
