Dont put the horse in front of the bike

True Story:
So V was taking his 15 month old for a walk around London, and caught a rare spectacle of about 40 horses going in a procession of sorts. V thought this toddler would be super excited to see that many horses, and kept saying "horse" in the hope that toddler would repeat after him and show the same level of excitement. To the utter disppointment of V, kiddo showed no enthusiasm for the horses. Then a biker whizzed past those horses and the kiddo yelled in joy "biiike".
I guess 40 horse power wasnt enough to please the little one, it took about 800 horse power :)

When will Tendulkar retire?

Take a look at his stats here. My prediction is he retires the day he has hit 50 100s and 100 50s in ODIs.

How bad is the economy?

Will the string of bad news ever end? First, it was Bernie Madoff, then it was Satyam, and more recently Allen Stanford. What would be funny is if Madoff had actually invested in Satyam stocks, and Satyam had those fake FDs held in the Stanford banks. The economy must be in a really bad shape. It is so bad that even the crooks like Raju and Madoff are finding it difficult to survive. I meant this in a very serious sense, but people who heard this thought it was funny. The easy money machines are losing the grease looks like. Also, is it a coincidence that the oil prices decided to fall suddenly just before the transition of power across the pond? Its almost like all those people who do "dus ka thees" quietly disappear at the first sign of mamus. There is more to it that what meets the eye, says the conspiracy theorist in me.
