to bald.. or not to bald...

everyday in the newspaper i see ads regarding hair loss ,and getiing back your hair again..
all of you must have seen those the ones which they show a before and after picture of a guy

now i am balding and i have accepted it and have no problem about that

it was going to happen any way ,my dad lost his hair when he was around 28 my grand father too was bald (i never saw him with hair) and according to my family seniors what i have heard my great grandfather was born bald and he never had hair on his head

well the other thing i have learned is you can stop your hair loss but, most of the times you cannot grow new hair when you have lost it (from the roots) (ofcorse there is hair transplant and all those fundoo operations)but thats not important

now the funny part is how your family(parents) takes it and how your close realtives react to it, its almost the opposite reaction.

family...

mom now she really feels bad for you and trys to convince you to use different hair oils in her own way. She dosent really say straight to you that your balding but, will say try this oil this might give you more cooling effect or like make your hair shinnier or even say you look good to get your spirits higher (as if thts gonna make your hair grow back)

dad now he dosent care at all because he himself is bald , he knows it was going to happen any way . like my dad he calls me taklu

sister/brother they the hell dont care about your hair they are more worried of them selves and thier hair

relatives

aunts now they are more straight forward and will say straight to your face you are balding and if its a get to-gether with some more family members they will make sure every one hears it when they say it ,and they make sure that they discuss it at that time yes at that time as if its an issue to debate(loudly how silky was your hair and now look how it is) ... now if this dosent really irritate you then they get out the trump card that is so now tell us the name of the girl you are seeing (in front of your parents)....what ? ok now how are both these things related..

uncles they are the sober guys, they take you to the side and beat around the bush and say why dont you try this and that but never straight away tell you ,you are balding, maybe because they feel your hair loss as thier own

cousins they are more intrested in that girl which your aunt mentioned

well after this you have is two options

1) you go do some treatment (which may or may not work) but most of the times fastens hair loss

2)accept you are balding (like me) and welcome the change in your life

so till then people

from balding

Opportunity

opportunity....... we always talk about it
it's just a chance

why am I writing about this well I was thinking about some chances I had,
and spoke to a friend few nights back and realized that I had lost quite a few opportunities

sometimes we know its an opportunity and we just take it but sometimes due to certain genuine reasons we cant take advantage of the opportunity ,well that’s ok

but then there are times when we just miss an opportunity due to our stupidity, and we don’t realize it till we think about it and then smack our head and say well it would have been different ,if we had taken that...

well we miss it because of various reasons...
it could be we don’t realize it that time it's an opportunity
or it could be we are just plain scared to do that and back out

down the line I have realized I have missed out most opportunities because I some how backed out
I really don’t know why but maybe due to fear or other reasons(not at all genuine) at that time

I realized now that what ever happens if there is an opportunity I am going to take it, unless I have a genuine reason to not take it

Well I am going to change my way of taking opprtunities and follow the motto

Its better to have tried and failed, then to never try at all

So till then folks strike those opportunities they could change your life….

its the fart....

well every conversation starts or ends with a fart...

well there are two kinds of fart the atom bomb (noise) one and the chemical torpedo (noise less) one

both are effective but the chemical one is usually fatal

farting is like relaxing, for your ass and your intestines.. it just makes them feel better

there is great theory and research done by Dr.R.Panch on the relaxing effect and how the atom bombs are created and why some are the chemical torpedoes ,according to him its due to the

air turbulence and shape of your ass

well farting is like a mystery too

well say you are in a gathering and suddenly there is the fatal chemical torpedo

and then you start wondering who was it was it that bald man or the lady with the ass

and when you come back home you are sure to mention it as it had almost suffocated the life out of you

but its the best when you are with your friends (group) because with your friends

if one of them fires the atom bomb you are sure to know from which army bASS it was fired from

but if it s the chemical torpedo then the radars are switched on to find that particular

army bASS

the radar questionnaire is direct and to the point asking each other did you or did you not ,there might even be an argument

but in this chaos we forget to really look at the real culprit who has farted out to glory who sits there quiet as if not interested in the conversation or trying either to pacify the other guys or try to take away their attention to some other thing

but if that person is caught then all hell is broken by trying to ping all the farts on him in last innumerous meetings they have had

well finally his bASS is conquered and destroyed

well they rightly say you are in love with each other is , not when you look into their eyes or hold each others hands

but when you can fart peacefully (in their presence)

well till then my friends be happy and keep on farting.....

ipod - highly overrated

the ipod the most overrated gadget

the ipod started of with a bang , yes it captured the hearts of millions all around the world and suddenly everything was ipod,

well you were not even considered to be in the pod if you didnt have the ipod.

with its revolutionary design (the wheel) and its plesent white looks it was good for the eye to see but was it really as good as what it proclaimed to be...

well here comes the answer NO

a music player for which it was designed couldnt play the most of the common file extensions (other then the mp3 and the wma offcourse) which by the way could have saved a lot of space on the ipod i say this because mp3 players around the same time can play a lot of other file extensions

it dosent have a fm recevier ,you might ask why do we need radio,
well my friend sometimes it just feels nice to listen to something live other than your stored music

it dosent have a built in voice recorder , which could have been added advantage

its not that good of player in sound as compared to others

it even had a battrey problem earlier (thank god they rectified it to allow the ipods to change battreies)

the other things like the add ons too have to be bought seperatley by the way a few which should be mandatory

the other thing is its a bit overly priced than the other players
the other players esppecially like the creative zen series or even the creative movo series are really a better option

even the memory capacity of the players are equivalent if not more compared to the ipod

there are lots of players you can check out like

the creative zen series http://www.creative.com
the movo (creative)
samsung has got some new models http://www.samsung.com
Iriver (a koren company) http://www.iriver.com/
value for money players with lot of other added tech advantages

with the launch of the video and the nano ipod has entered in to the color screen display models , the players mentioned above too have a variety of color display and video players

the other players too offer the same functions plus a few more which are surely important and for a good value

if you are a person who go's for the looks then take the ipod but if you are the person who likes to be techno savvy with value for money then surely chek the other players

my saying is you wont be disappointed....

till then...

The New Team India

well in this last couple of months we have seen a new resurgent team india
which is hungry ,not complacent ,ruthless and the desire only to win
thier motto which trully signifies the australian mantra

"that winning is not everything, its the only thing"

the great part of this series against the sri lankans and the south africans was each and every team member contributed in some manner or the other

sachin tendulkar the master himself is back with a bang
rahul dravid as the new captain has been open to new experiments and himself has played really well in the series
irfan pathan is stepping up slowly but surely in that allrounders spot (of cousre he is long way of from the great one kapil dev)
ajit agarkar this guy is the spark which india needs to start the fire with
yuvraj singh is back where he belongs among the runs and diving to stop them
shewag had a quiet series for his kind of playing

the new boys S Sreesanth,gautam gambhir ,suresh raina,venugopal rao
and rp singh are surely the future of indian cricket (yes for now we can say we have a bench strength)they have impressed with whatever chances they got, its time they get a lot more chances

the spinners for harbajan and karthik had a good series .

but the man who took it away and stamped his authority is the gloveman
mahendra singh dhoni ... yes he is there to stay and stay for long

last but not the least yes we can all field now , what an improvement
they rightly say "catches win matches"

the new indian team is open to experiments ,they are flexible they are open to new rules under the captain rahul dravid and the coach greg chappel

they have left the recent ficaso of the dressig room and selection drama well behind and are looking for the kill

yes now they are enjoying the game and are playing like a team

this series was great but greater things are expected and they know it

its just time for all of us to applaud them.....

TEAM INDIA IS BACK.......
