How well do you tackle problems that obstruct your way ? Observe how one master does it...
Laloo talks to his son
Laloo : I want you to marry a girl of my choice
Son : I want to choose my own bride.
Laloo : But the girl is Bill Gates' daughter.
Son : Well, in that case... I can consider the idea..
Next Laloo approaches Bill Gates
Laloo : I have a husband for your daughter.
Bill Gates : But my daughter is too young to marry.
Laloo : But this young man is a Vice President of the World Bank.
Bill Gates : Ah, in that case...I can give it a thought
Finally Laloo goes to see the President of the World Bank
Laloo : I have a young man to be recommended as a Vice President.
President : But I already have more Vice Presidents than I need.
Laloo : But this young man is Bill Gates' son-in-law.
President : Really ? in that case I will certainly think on it...

Weekend!
Last two days, I was at home, mainly watching the third test between India and England. Seeing the match, some weird thoughts ran into my mind..
Why don't we change the batting order of Indian batting, reversing it totally, with Sreesanth and Munaf Patel opening the innings. I think India will score more...
Why not remove some of the non-performers, and put the commentators instead, who knows exactly at what angle the bat should have moved, which direction your feet should be, what degree your head should have tilt for each shot?
Also, I would like to know whether the so-called experts would exactly know whether batting first is better or bowling before even a single ball is bowled. It is pretty easy to say something after one session of the match.
Irfan Pathan played a shot (the shot which he got out). Unfortunately, he was caught and had to leave the field. Every commentator said it was an unnecessary shot, and that Irfan was irresponsible. This to a player who had contributed (may be more than Tendulkar) in every match. I agree, it might have been an immature shot. Now, had that ball cleared the ropes, what would have been the commentator's reaction? Should have been "Wow that's a shot only Irfan can play at this juncture of the innings."
Also I pretty well know how these so-called experts reacted to such situations when they were in the field (Long Long Ago).
EASY TO PREACH EH?

Heroes -- My Observations....
HINDI:
Stage I:
Acts in any film that comes his way.
If he gets a film with good songs, the film clicks, he is accepted as an actor.
Stage II:
Keeps on repeatedly doing the same genre of films with hairline difference in the story, until he becomes stereotyped, the audience gets fed up and no more accepts him in such roles.
Stage III:
Tries changing tracks, if successful will repeat step II.
Stage IV:
Then he is forgotten, say till the age of about 50-60, when he is remembered again and conferred with "Life Time Achievement Award" by Filmfare.
THE END.
MALAYALAM:
Stage I:
*Acts in films that kind of generates a sympathy for the actor...he suffers a lot, lives for his family, is always ditched by others and generates an "IO PAAVAM" like feeling.
*Continues the same genre of movies till he finds a place in the audience's heart.
Stage II:
He then switches over to Macho-roles, his moustache turns the other way, and does things that are good to fantasize.
Stage III:
Mostly ends up doing elderly characters -- father, grandfather.....
TAMIL:
Stage I:
Almost similar to Malayalam. Acts in a few movies, mainly romantic initially.
Plays similar roles, mostly beaten by 2-3 lean villains, tries to generate the same "IO PAAVAM" like feelings.
Stage II:
Once accepted by the audience, he then switches over to super-hero type roles, wherein he is now capable of beating 10-15 bulk villains may be with just one finger.
Stage III:
Continues doing this...
Stage IV:
Maybe politics..
NOTE:
1. Exceptions are there.
2. Read - all above-mentioned actors are good actors.

WANTED!!
God Please Bless My Computer
Every night I lie in bed
This little prayer inside my head
God bless my mom and dad
and bless my child
and take care of my spouse
who brings me so much joy...
God, there's just one more thing
I wish that you would do
if you don't mind my asking
to bless my computer, too?
Now I know that it's not normal
to bless a small machine
but listen just a second
and I'll try to explain...
You see, that little metal box
holds more than odds and ends
Inside those small components
rest a hundred loving friends.
Some it's true I've never seen
and most I've never met...
never shaken hands or
ever truly hugged, and yet...
I know for sure they love me
by the kindness they give,
and this little scrap of metal
is how I get to where they live.
By faith is how I know them,
Much the same as I know You.
I share in life it brings them,
So if it's OK with you...
Just take an extra minute
from your duties up above...
to bless this little hunk of steel
that's filled with so much love.
