God Is Love!

The Bible says God is Love!

Thinking about Love, I wonder if the readers know that the ONLY major religion not to have caused any bloodshed in its name is Buddhism!

Maybe we should give the teachings of Buddha a little more thought.

Peace and Love.. what else do you need in life?

And India HAVE DONE IT!


A bright and young Indian team, under the dynamic leadership of Dhoni have done it! The team for once did not have anything to loose and everything to gain! I am, like the rest of India, looking forward to the coming few months of cricket. India - Australia then India - Pakistan followed by India touring Australia.
Exciting winter of Cricket ahead!

INDIA IS IN THE FINALS OF THE 20/20 WORLD CUP!



Here are the highlights of the Australian Innings!
See the wickets fall. See the sexy fast bowling from the Indian Bowlers!

I LOVE it when our bowlers clean bowl the opposition batsmen. The ball is released, it swings through the air, in-between the bat and the pad, CLEAN BOWLED!
The MIDDLE STUMP TAKES A WALK! :D
Thats what happened to Gilchrist! That was a classic delivery.
It nearly gave me an erection (being an ex-student and fan of physics!).
Because of that one delivery I will forgive Shreesanth his (sometimes) idiotic behavior and (occassional) lack of control (both over the ball and his temper).

Hayden, lost his wicket to a wild slog shot (trying to intimidate Sreesanth) and that made me want to run naked through the streets of Bristol (Thank God I can't do anything like that now!)

The Pathan Delivery (the one that got us the match) to get rid of Symonds. Intelligent bowling. Tempt Symonds with the width and yet not throw it all that wide (so that it doesn't miss the stumps!). Great stuff from the experienced bowler. He needs to be back in the team now!

Then the Bhajji yorker, right in the block-hole with a bit of flight! SWEET! UMMMMMM

The icing on the cake was the on-the-sweetspot yorker from Sharma making the Leg Stump take a walk!

I heard a familiar song during the game, being played on the ground. It was being played during the Australian Onslaught. It is a song by Men At Work - The Land Down Under. But it should be used for India after their performance yesterday!

Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover!

:D

Land Down Under Lyrics
» Men At Work
Traveling in a fried-out combie
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said,

"Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."


Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,

"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Lying in a den in Bombay
With a slack jaw, and not much to say
I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty?"
And he said,

"Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah)
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Oh and a final note:

The FIRST ICC MINI WORLD CUP was held in SA/Zimbabwe and India reached the Final after defeating both Australia AND South-Africa. Their Final match was against New Zealand which they lost.

This time for the FIRST ICC 20/20 WORLD CUP (again held in SA), India has reached the Final after defeating both Australia AND South-Africa. Their Final match WOULD have been against New Zealand but they lost to Pakistan.

Thus for the ICC 20/20 WC for the FIRST TIME, INDIA AND PAKISTAN are going to face off in the Finals of a MAJOR INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENT.

Keane - Bedshaped



Many's the time I ran with you down

The rainy roads of our old town

Many the lives we lived in each day

And buried all together


Don't laugh at me

Don't look away



You'll follow me back (YOU ARE FOLLOWING ME BACK)

With the sun in your eyes

And on your own

Bedshaped and legs of stone

You'll knock on my door

And up we'll go

In white lightI don't think so

But what do I know?

What do I know?



I knowI know you think I'm holding you down

And I've fallen by the wayside now

And I don't understand the same things as you

But I do



Don't laugh at me

Don't look away



You'll follow me back

With the sun in your eyes

And on your own

Bedshaped, two legs of stone

You'll knock on my door

And up we'll go

In white lightI don't think so

But what do I know?

What do I know?

I know



ahahaa ahahaa ahahaa ahahaa(Choir)



ooooohhhhhhhh

And up we'll goIn white light

I don't think so

But what do I know?

What do I know?

I know




This is a VERY SPECIAL song for me. The video is what got me hooked to this song a long long time ago. Check it out. The video is just amazing!

This song is dedicated to a Very special friend in my life. The one who ended the night and bought a new dawn!

What do I know?
I know
