"It starts with light, and ends with light, and in between there is darkness."


Today is the day you will witness the longest solar eclipse of this century . So keep your eyes closed, ahem.. open. And stop hiding under your desk!!

It’s 12.40pm in Bangalore and I can hear rumbling in the background, oops that was my stomach. I have been hungry for more than 3 hours and 19 minutes, with an occasional coffee bite.The office is empty, all the aunties are home  with their Communicator status  indicating that they are “Working from home “ in reality they are  catching up on the “Tujh Sang Preet Lagai Sajna”. Aha !!

Since the moon is new and all, it is now making passes between the sun and the earth, duh!! Not that kind of pass.

I wonder if they sell Moon’s on ebay. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cl_SWi_wTBE&feature=player_embedded 

Well I am hungry and it is suddenly very very dark, wait…. thank God for the backup generator. No no nothing to do with the Solar eclipse.
 I wonder what people in Glass houses/companies do ? Just peek out and catch the solar eclipse, since the glasses are made up of 5, "Black Polymer" material.

Ofcourse , the Solar eclipse dates back to when Krishna wove his magic to help Arjuna kill Jayadrata and avenge Abhimanyu  by creating the solar eclipse. Read it here.

The slow-motion replay doesn't show how fast the ball was really travelling. `Richie

I love to watch the matches that are played in Australia, especially since I get to hear Richard "Richie" Benaud, who is all of 80 years. He is one of the best commentators of all time along with Henry Blofeld.

Something new always happens in Australia. Did you know that the batsman, can now challenge the umpire's decision ? Yes sir, and it goes to the 3rd umpire. Well well well.



Pakisthan demolished Australia, at the SCG ( 127 all out). It was Asif all the way along with the Sami. If you get a chance to catch the match live, don't miss it.







And ho here's to a happy new year.. yep new calendar's and all :)
