BITS FROM HOME AND AROUND THE WORLD!

I’ll start with this interesting piece. A couple in Texas, US have after 5 years of research brought out a list titled ‘Top 237 reasons why people have sex’. I read the first ten for both men and women, and thought it was pretty much trash. I mean, the top most reason given was “attracted to opposite sex” for both genders. Hello Genius!!…..There are some weird ones. Like “Wanted to have climax”. Dudes and gals, ever heard of Masturbation?…Some are understandable such as “Wanted a pay rise”.(On this Shou commented"Hell I sure wouldn’t mind sleeping with my future lady boss for a rise in my paycheck...." ahh you can guess that he stopped pretty abruptly after witnessing "the look" on my face) Anyways how about trying to research a cure for AIDS or Cancer for 5 years, dolts!

In other news, Sania Mirza got through to the quarters of the Acura Classic. She’s beaten some heavyweights on her way. Now, she’s going to play Miss “aaaahhhh” Sharapova.But cmon, this is Sania. I’ll bet my precious ass that she’ll lose. She always does, when the crunch time dawns.

Meanwhile, Sanjay Dutt was shifted to the Yerwada jail in Pune for “security reasons”. I believe Mahatma Gandhi himself was lodged in this jail during the independence struggle. Man, how’s that for coincidence for munnabhai. Curiously, the Mahatma too was sentenced to 6 years imprisonment. Reality really is stranger than fiction.

It poured pretty heavily here in Mumbai yesterday. South Bombay, apparently, was worst hit. Now my friends in town can know what its like to be in the suburbs at the worst of times.

Meanwhile, Gen-X in Surat, Gujarat seem to have taken fashionista beyond cloud nine. Apparently, some of them now flaunt their “diamond studded” teeth. Diamonds are implanted into some teeth and yo! Trust Gujjus to be up there at flaunting things, eh fellas?

In other news, Barack Obama finally gave reason to “white dominated” America to rule him out of the race for the White House. His statement that he wouldn’t “use nuclear weapons under any circumstances” didn’t quite go down too well with most Americans, or so it seems.

In tech, I saw this Apple i-phone review on ‘cell guru’ on NDTV. It’s awesome per se, but if you’re thinking of getting it to India now, Dont! The phone will be a little “crippled” and not all the functions would work.Get the Nokia N-95 in its place. It’ll do everything that the i-phone does and more.

Have a great Weekend!
