What is it signifying??
Cannot see India losing.
Cannot hear the audience outburst against the team
Cannot speak in front of media about the causes of defeat.

Gandhi’s three monkeys
Monday, March 26th, 2007Who’s on first?
Monday, July 24th, 2006I always wanted to watch Abbott and Costello’s most famous comedy routine. Watching a re-run of Rainman (a movie in which it is mentioned many times) was a helpful reminder for this.
It is hilarious the first time. You can watch it again and again though, even if you have watched it before. A classic.
[The complete text of the routine can be read here.]

Another reason I will be supporting France
Friday, July 7th, 2006
The first was mentioned here. NDTV now brings to us pictures of congress workers supporting Italy in the world cup.
Why? Sonia Gandhi is Italian born. Simple really!
Party workers offered prayers at the Choti Patan Devi Mandir in Patna for Italy’s success against France on Sunday.
“We are praying for Italy to win because this is Rahul Gandhi’s maternal home,” said Rakesh Kumar Tillu, general secretary of the Bihar Youth Congress. The yagya featured a football and a specially invited priest…
… The youth congress workers who organised it have also promised to distribute 100 kilos of ladoos in the city if Italy does indeed win the World Cup.
You want to be in the good books of Sonia Gandhi, especially if you are a congress worker. So with the world cup fever catching on, what better way to please madame.
If Calcuttans can support Brazil and Argentina, why can’t congress workers support Italy? Or why can’t BJP join Dhoomk2 in lamenting Holland’s loss and Simi Garewal join me in supporting France (they do play in white as well) for that matter?
Heh.
Update: Gaurav blogs about it here.

Football Commercials #1 – The Streaker
Saturday, April 29th, 2006Ahead of the FIFA World Cup, the quality football commercials are coming up faster than you can imagine. There are the impressive Joga Bonito ads of course. Watch them if you haven’t already.
Introducing the new feature seems just apt. One football commercial a day (for at least the first week) then. No, the quality wont suffer. Suggestions via mail welcome for the next edition.
Hope you liked this one!
Update: From week two, I am doing the feature as thrice a week.
