Tennis - US-Open '08

Every year I wish to watch US Open live at Flushing Meadows and it is still on hold for the past 4 years. I watch tennis to the core. This time there are more qualifiers who made it to the fourth round. Now a days ppl concentrate more on their powering serves rather than the game...

Federer: look like something is missing in him...but still the favorite, Nadal: Man!!!!...you have to really watch him to enjoy the sport of Tennis, Roddick: Guy played positively so far, Williams sisters: As usual.

I will take a guess of 08 Champions...Nadal and Jankovich

Indian Mahesh Bhupathi is still in the league(Not with Paes though) ...They would have made a good pair in the doubles .....Ah!!!!! I dont want to discuss that...

Beijing -2008

It was a disaster to watch the US men/women disqulaify for Finals of 4x100m relay after dropping the baton in the final lap of the relay. The Jamaicans were awesome in the athletics. And India grabbed three medals in total...including 2 bronze and a gold...The medal winners were appreciated by Spice Jet and Indian Railways by providing them a life time free passes in their carriers.

I watched India sprinters in one of the qualifying rounds finishing up in the last...The difference between them and the last but one was huge....They just wanted to complete the lap and not to compete....I was wondering..whether it is lack of training, or thats the stamina they got...

What I am saying is...they know how much time ppl are finishing the lap to win...if they couldnt even come near during the training sessions..why to participate????

Its high time that India leaves cricket aside and concentrate more on .....and dream abt Olympics 2020.

Niagara Falls

I visited Niagara Falls for the second time...and have no words to express the beauty of it. Still I didnt get a chance to have a view from the Canadian side...Hope will make it one day...The IMAX theater shows narrates abt ppl who took daredevil acts against the Fury of the Falls ans also ppl who met with accidents and survived to tell the story. The Awesome part of the trip is the CAVE of the WINDS where you can experience the falls closer. One really cant enjoy the illuminated Falls from the American side.

The Dark Knight

This movie is doing crazy in the box office rite now...I didnt watch any of the Batman movies so far...Seeing its run i decided to go for it...The movie was good as i expected but didnt have the feeling that it has everything for this successful run....400 million in 18 days....

May be i should have watched the prequel to appreciate it more ?

Post after a really long time

I ve been wondering how people are consistent in writing. I failed miserably since i thought my blog will be updated regularly when i started it. Now its a six months gap..Every time I start the blog again ...I am again hoping that ,this will not continue :-)

Slideshow

I have updated my slide show with pictures of Yellow Stone National Park. This park was established in 1872, and is America's first national park. Located in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho, it is home to a large variety of wildlife including grizzly bears, wolves, bison, and elk. This park has a collection of the world's most extraordinary geysers and hot springs, and the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.

Slideshow is available on the right.

Patriots...

It was a shock to see New England Patriots lose in the SuperBowl. I started watching the game after half time with Patriots leading the game 7 - 3 and the third quarter with no score and I had a hunch in the last minute of the 3rd quarter and told my friend that NY Giants might pull this game. It happened the way I thought and Patriots ended with 18-1 this season..

A win would have been an amazing one...Better luck next time PATS!!!!!!!!!!!

My Phones.

I got inspiration from one of my friend Amar for this posting. Amar listed all his phones he used in his website. Interesting thing is everytime he changes the phone, the old one automatically comes to me :-) Currently I have the Samsung Black Jack and I am expecting Kaiser HTC in the near future.

Apple Macbook Air

I guess this is the world's thinnest notebook i have ever heard of. Seeing the ads on TV and I was more interested on this product. It has 13.3 inch display and a full size keyboard. It costs USD 1800 for 80 GB hard drive and 64 GB drive with more faster processor for 3100 bucks. Mac fans have one more product in their collection.

Its TAX time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those of you paying taxes this year is eligible for tax rebates. Govt has decided to issue checks of 600 USD for single and 1200 USD for married and 300 USD for each kid. This is to save the economy from recession. Extra money in your pocket

Harbhajan Singh......

Finally Harbhajan singh is relieved from the racial abuse case and charged with 50% of his match fees. Symonds has said he is not aware of the exact phrase used by bhajji...Talks are on that Cricket Australia has to succumb to pressure from the financially powerful Cricket board BCCI...

Whatever it is except for bhajji and symonds no one knew what happened!!!!!!!!
