Elephant and Donkey

June 12, 2008 / Guttu / 2 Comments

Seriously I didn’t knew about this. I wondered why and for what are these elephant and donkey cartoons?? Why elephant and donkey only?? Today I thought of giving a search and was surprised with the result. Donkey represents Democratic Party and Elephant represents the Republican. My jaws fell down to ground. How can a party make a Donkey as it’s representative?? A further search cleared the doubts that it’s only in cartoons. I got some really cool Donkey images. I will post them in upcoming posts. Till then enjoy this cartoon I found.

Cricket fever

Thank God…. The so called biggest cricket extravaganza is over. Its a week since it’s over. I’m writing today because it was still in news even after the finale. It is said to be a huge success and has changed the cricket approach. the fast forward 20-20 games will soon replace 50-50. We don’t have time isn’t it?? So how will ICC get profit with our lack of time for things. but the, When there is a cricket match it’s like a holiday. You’ll hardly find anyone working in government offices.

The whole tournament lasted for 44 days and there were many controversies during the tournament. There were fights between team players. Someone slapped someone. Someone cried like a baby. The player doesn’t charge, but surprisingly the team captain does. Then the withdrawal of the charges. Mind you that the same players play for the country as a team. And now they are fighting here. As there is a saying. Controversies, Good or Bad, doesn’t matter. They are sure to get you in the limelight. Maybe tomorrow a celebrity will be in limelight for kicking a donkey. The donkey will get some limelight also. The confusion may be who is the donkey between two?? Continue reading →

Mangoes

Mango….The king of fruits. I just love mangoes. And there is no limit to eating it. Actually I love to eat seasonal fruits. Like these mangoes which grow up in summer. But this summer is a bit different. Oh I must say now this summer was a bit different. It’s raining heavily here. Every summer we used to get mangoes at a decent price. But before that uncle used to send us and they used to be whole lot of them. But this year somehow the fruit is prolonged. The fruits are there but are not ripe. They are there for about two months. Just last week onwards they started ripening.

I missed this fruit for whole season. Last week when I went to uncles house me together with my brother picked up fruits from the tree. The Monkey in me is always awake. Climbing the tree was not a big task. I picked almost 250-300 mangoes. I actually went to eat one beautiful jungle fruit. I don’t know what is that called in english, But it tastes great. And again I was unfortunate there that fruit was hardly seen this year. Continue reading →

Buying an Elephant

June 7, 2008 / Guttu / 2 Comments

While watching Discovery I thought of buying an Elephant. I’ve been always fascinated by elephants. And Lord Ganesh the “Elephant God”. The huge size they posses is just pleasure to watch. But I don’t like watching animals in zoo. They are at their best in wild. And so do the elephants.
Back to the topic. I was watching this documentary on elephants “Wildlife Special – Elephants”. A very nice documentary and liked it. Elephants posses some great qualities and somehow they resemble human beings. They have a huge families. If there is danger signs are passed from on group to another group. And these signals travels kilometers.
The fact that I liked was the amount of food they eat. They eat 150Kgs per day. And the next thought made me buy the elephant. With the amount of food they eat they pass gas. And that whole lot of gas. It’s 2000 liters per day.

This is methane gas. This much amount can burn for almost 10 hours. Enough to cook my food, Boil water. The increasing price of oil and gas leads me to this alternative. For my needs I’ll require only 2-3 hours of that. So you can take the rest of it. Recently 3-4 days back gas price was hiked by Rs. 50. Thats a bit too high. We have to search for an alternate.
This gives you another reason to save elephants. Save elephants and save money.

Think Nonsense…

Mindless Zombies

“If you can’t change your mind, are you sure you have one?”

Ask this question to yourself. There are many mindless zombies around you. that’s according to the above thought. It’s very difficult to change your mind. But there are some gifted persons (like me :D), whose mind keeps on changing. It’s volatile. According to me you must posses a mind that changes.

The thoughts of yesterday are gone. you cannot implement them today. Change your mind and go according to new thoughts. There are situations when you have to take decisions against your mind. But that is a good sign. at least you are changing your mind. never mind if you are going against it.

My thoughts keep changing but still I call myself a mindless zombie. Many times i don’t know what I am doing. It just happens from me. Just like those Hollywood horror flicks where virus infection takes place and peoples turn into zombies. I’m infected. Better stay away from me. It spreads quickly.

Now who is the scientist here who’ll come to rescue from the disease?? Still unknown. It’ll not be a zombie though. I hope to control the flow of thoughts, But it’s seems to be very difficult. Not impossible though.
