MY all time Fav song....

Lucky you were born that far away so
We could both make fun of distance
Lucky that I love a foreign land for
The lucky fact of your existence

Baby I would climb the Andes solely
To count the freckles on your body
Never could imagine there were only
Ten Million ways to love somebody

Le ro lo le lo le, Le ro lo le lo le
Can't you see
I'm at your feet

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear

Thereover, hereunder
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear
But that's the deal my dear

Lucky that my lips not only mumble
They spill kisses like a fountain
Lucky that my breasts are small and humble
So you don't confuse them with mountains
Lucky I have strong legs like my mother
To run for cover when I need it
And these two eyes that for no other
The day you leave will cry a river

Le ro le le lo le, Le ro le le lo le
At your feet
I'm at your feet

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear

Thereover, hereunder
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear
But that's the deal my dear

Le ro le le lo le, Le ro le le lo le
Think out loud
Say it again

Le ro lo le lo le lo le
Tell me one more time
That you'll live
Lost in my eyes

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear

Thereover, hereunder
You've got me head over heels
There's nothing left to fear
If you really feel the way I feel

The Lions keep roaring...

It's all about the the tri series that's going on in Australia,the match played yesterday between Srilanka and India, as usual a rain delayed start, restricted overs of 29,with India losing the toss, and Srilanka opting to field first, Indian openers once again failed to give a good start,the only hope provided by the Mumbai youngster playing a handful knock of 70*, with some support by dhoni, sachin and gambir, all getting out in 30's..india completed with 195 in the provided 29 overs, the first match played after a gap of 16 years in the Australian capital was disrupted by rain again, the target revised to 154 in 21 overs...SL the Openers doing the right job, with "SOTTAI" aka sanath jayasuriya and Dilshan started the fire works,with sreesanth going for 23 runs in a single over massacred by jayasuriya started the momentum for the lankans, though his wicket was taken by the delhi pacer Ishant Sharma, he blazed a 13 ball 27 with 2 fours and 2 sixes,provided a winning track for the Lankans, with Dilshan playing a winning knock of 59 ball 62* got a help from his captain jayawardene making a unbeaten 36..i hope the india is on the top of the table with 8 points, and aussies with 7 and Lankans with 6 points makes the series alive and more thrilling contest for making their place in the finals...

Blazing Black Caps...

It's all praise for the newzeland cricket team, they are playing their best of cricket at their home, though they lost mercilessly to the England in the first two T-20 matches, now the home is proving costly to the Collingwood and his men, they have won two games in a row..I especially liked the way the NZ openers played in both of the matches, in the second match played in Hamilton,though there were some showers during the game, the england were restricted to 158 in 35 overs, by D/L the black caps got a revised target of 165 in 36 overs..The openers Brendon McCullum and JESSIE Ryder, gave a match winning opening,with McCullum playing a blazing knock of 80* in 47 balls with 8 fours and 5 huge sixes...Ryder giving him a company making 79* of 62 balls...

It's two in a Row....

A lost in meenakshi sundararajan "Kranti 08..."that was my first loss for this season, and it continues, it's two in a row now...my bad quizzing continues...i lost once again in IMPULSE 08 conducted by the cse dpt of AIHT..i donno where i go wrong, i got selected for the finals, but i sucked rite from the first round, the round 1 was purely related with Linux, Unix etc...me and krishna were in a team..this is the first time where i went in to a loss after qualifying for the finals...i need to improve a lot in the computer related fields, it dos't mean that am very good in general quizzing, am also a bit weak in the general round sections...but one could have a guess in general round..but when answering the technical rounds you have to give a straight answer, no other way....any way i hope the upcoming symposiums provides me some luck, where i look for some win...happy quizzing all...
