Oh my god… it has been a long time since I
wrote something in this blog. Kind of dumped it.. but the truth is life got
busy, so busy that I wonder what
happened to those days, where I slept on the grass in the upper ground early morning.. and tried
to smell the earth and grass. Sounds magical to me. Didn’t plan a trip too for
the past 6 months.. yeah I wish I could sneak in a day and go somewhere near a
big water source and hear the sound of water!!
Yeah… time is something that’s running very
very fast.
I was talking with a friend , a film maker
few days back, he told me that they used to come and park their vehicles at the
place where we stay now and go to the theatre nearby ( didn’t use the parking
of the theatre) …just to save some parking charges and used it to buy popcorn
.. man I loved the anecdote!!
Okay.. time for some dark comedy!!.. actually
I love dark comedy.. but even I have my limits.
TV.. is setting
new heights in it.. its not just about those non stop.. who can cry
in every frame (read mega serials).. now you can here weird psycho sounds ..
like.. : jumping jhapang gili gili he”.. This is too much!! Brainwash at its
best!!
here
goes the story, a zen teacher saw saw a white man and a colored man fighting, he went to them.. saw their
wounds.. took the blood mixed them and told to find which is colored …
Now a pesticide company(read soft drinks)
from USA uses this story.. we see a Punjabi team and a Kolkata team
supporter fighting.. bang comes the hero , mixes the pepsi in both bottles and
he asks them, now tell me which pepsi is from Punjab and which pepsi is is from
kolkata!!.. lol.. guys.. dark comedy at its best!!...
And yeah now to the core of the blog, a
letter to Rahul Dravid, this should have been written long long back.. I
thought of writing it many times and I don’t know why it never happened. But
then I was watching this match with Punjab XI.. dravid fumbled to take david
hussey’s catch but finally managed to take it, the look in his face that he
almost dropped it and the relief that he managed to take it, made me fall in
love .. which happened many times before!! The catch is not life threatening,
but the shear intensity and professionalism he carries is something that will
make you smile!! In a way I learnt few
points in life by watching his batting!!
The days I didn’t even study for exams to
watch him bat all day were always memorable; The defence shots are something an
artist would love; and the way the damage is done unnoticed is something you
notice very slowly!!.. cover drives.. playing spinners ..everything to
perfection!!
I felt this in very few things, music,
travelling, reading..!!
So its always like two things, watching
cricket and watching rahul dravid bat!!
Thanks a ton mate for some wonderful
moments!!
Keep rockin
Three cheers
