http://for-lack-of-a-better.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 2, 2008. More Rime Than Reason. Instead the readers of this blog ( all 3 of them ) have to make do with a few more "creative " efforts of mine. I thought up this one while riding to work. Magnificent she stands , Dominating the road. An impetuous wave of her hand. All the vehicles stop. Its not to stare , she's not so beautiful. She's a Traffic Cop . Since I am Feeling too lazy to collate all of the below into logical posts , here follows some purely random thoughts from the last month.

Comfortably Dumb: January 2010
http://for-lack-of-a-better.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 9, 2010. Chennai Open - 2010! Rain delaying start of Q/f play by 3.5 hours : A blessing in disguise. Being able to watch all six matches of the day , sometimes 2 matches simultaneously . 5 great hours of tennis : Awesome. Having a Brown stand ticket , but sitting in Green Stand , 2 rows from the front because seats were empty : Happens only in India. Passion for the sport in Chennai , with more than 500 people staying on till the last match was done, at 1 : 30 AM : Unbelievable.

Comfortably Dumb: Cross - Talk
http://for-lack-of-a-better.blogspot.com/2008/09/cross-talk.html
Tuesday, September 16, 2008. I was reading that , there was this knockabout cross - talk act where , and I quote " Its one of those Pat and Mike things. Two birds come on in green breards . ". Actually its too long , go look it up . The gist is two people . well . cross -talking and poking each other with umbrellas. Anyway the below post is loosely inspired by that ( Without the remarks being prefaced with words like "Begorrah " and "Faith and begob" , as in the original, of course :P ). He - Man :.

Sunday, January 6, 2008. Ten out of Ten(nis). The setting : Saturday 6th Jan2008 , Chennai open 08 2nd semifinal. The participants : Rafael Nadal and Carlos Moya - Both Spaniards ,friends and eternal favourites of the adoring Chennai crowds. The result : Magic :). One of the best tennis matches ive seen and definitely the finest exhibition of sport ive seen live.

Comfortably Dumb: License to Kill .... ( Or Vice Versa ? )
http://for-lack-of-a-better.blogspot.com/2008/07/license-to-kill-or-vice-versa.html
Monday, July 14, 2008. License to Kill . ( Or Vice Versa? James Bond may have a license to kill, but even he would have given up in frustration if he was trying to get a license from an Indian RTO . Or he would have prolly done the smart thing and hired an agent ( Yea, i know he himself is a secret agent , but this is a diff kind of agent ). A RJ on Mirchi once compared driving in India to a video game . After some analysis, I decided that the only game that could fit was "RoadRash" ;) , sans beating...
