Facebook Vs Twitter Vs Blog

With twitter, facebook and blog, i am too confused where to write what. So i guess the best answer is as follows:

1. Less than 140 characters, and not expecting many friend's collaborative participation and not expected to have a long term refernce: TWITTER
2. Need immediate notice from friends, long term archival is not priority: FACEBOOK
3. Long term archival is priority; Friend's notice is medium priority: BLOG

My dad said i can eat doughnut only if i wear the papercap....

 

Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu

This will be one of the movie, i will remember for a long time. The last scene will stay with me for ever....The scene where the mom is in front of his son's photo...Hats off to whoever wrote the script and took that shot...

Rishi New Pic

I am already taken - my best country song now...

Steve Wariner "I'm Already Taken" (1978). I have been hearing this in Y100 FM in San Antonio. This song is so good and i realised, this is the same guy who sang "Holes in the Floor of Heaven", and accidentally i heard this song for the first time on the same day my grandma died....Too many flooding memory.

The lyrics goes like this

one day shy of eight years old, my grandma passed away
i was a broken hearted little boy, blowing out that birthday cake
how i cried when the sky let go, with a cold and lonesome rain,
mamma smiled, said don't be sad child, grandma's watching you today

(chorus)
cause theres holes in the floor of heaven
and her tears are pouring down,
that's how you know she's watching,
wishing she could be here now,
and sometimes if your lonely,
just remember she can see,
there's holes in the floor of heaven,
and she's watching over you and me,

seasons come, and seasons go, nothing stays the same
i grew up, fell in love, met a girl who took my name
year by year, we made a life, in this sleepy little town
i thought we'd grow old together, Lord, i sure do miss her now

But there's holes in the floor of heaven,
and her tears are pouring down,
that's how i know she's watching,
wishing she could be here now,
and sometimes when i'm lonely,
i remember she can see,
there's holes in the floor of heaven,
and she's, watching over you and me,

well my little girl is twenty three, I walk her down the aisle
it's a shame her mom can't be here now, to see her lovely smile
they throw the rice, i catch her eye, as the rain starts coming down
she takes my hand, says daddy don't be sad,
cause i know mamma's watching now

And there's holes in the floor of heaven,
and her tears are pouring down,
that's how you know she's watching,
wishing she could be here now,
and sometimes when i'm lonely,
i remember she can see,
yes, there's holes in the floor of heaven,
and she's, watching over you and me

watching over you and me
watching over you and me

Now, here is the "I am already taken" song...

Me and My new Haircut - while it exists, before it exits

 

Nee Naan Nila - Tamil Movie

I saw the last 30minutes of the movie and with that i got the gist of the whole movie. The last scene in the movie is totally a nice twist the the director. I would give 100/100 for the ending...Very nice and different.

Rolex on my 35th birthday

I guess, watch has been my obsession since long time. At one point, i did not feel the need to wear a watch. Then my dad gave me a Citizen watch during my college days that he got from Singapore. Whenever i wore that, it used to attract eyes. Then the interest towards watch died down. When i started going to work, i think i was wearing the watch presented by sai baba (to all students). Then in 1998, i fell in love with Omega, but bought only Swatch (to start with). The love for Omega Seamaster continued to grow in my mind. Then, one afternoon during lunch break i went and purchased. After this, i started collecting HMT watches for their vintage designs. I fell for Favre Leuba for the vintage design, that i picked up from a old watch repair shop. Since 4-5 years, the yearning for Rolex is growing and i always felt that i should acquire Rolex by my 35th birthday. Now this is coming to be real. My 35th birthday is going to be this year (October). Rolex is going to be an addition for this birthday. I am sure, this will be passed on to my first grandson :)

Thanks to Aarthy, i found this music

A Promise is a promise - Ratan Tata tells the world with his $2000 car "Nano"

Its so funny that Nano name was being rotated during the launch of the car. When you see it rotating, you read "Na No"..Na in hindi meaning "No" and again "No" in english. When it turns during rotation, you read "on on" meaning, the car is a reality. I dont know if anyone noticed this or made it this way intentionally.


I dont see the marketing charm in Ratan Tata, as i see in Steve Jobs. But i was mersmerised when you started talking about the price and also considering that the car has 50 Miles per gallon (Remember my car gives 25 miles per gallon). The car was one man dream 4 years back that set the price to be $2000 or Indian Rupee 100,000. People speculated that the car may sell for double that promised price considering input cost increase and increased safety and emission standards. But Ratan Tata said "The Price of the car is Rs.100,000 ($2000). A Promise is a Promise and thats what we would like to leave with you". I almost cried. If god is anywhere, he must give this man, another 100 years to live and give him another target. Target to do something so crucial that will provide peace to humanity. When he sets his eyes on something, he does it. Long Live Ratan

My Anniversary Gift

It is not fair to block corporate bonuses

It is ofcourse not fair to block corporate bonuses for companies like AIG and Citi and other huge loss making companies.


Let us say that a company has made a loss of $100 Billion for the year and the company is handing out 200 Million in bonuses to high ranking executives. There is nothing wrong in that because, had it not been for those executives, the companies would have made $200 Billion dollar losses. If giving those $200 million in bonuses is not fair, then what justifies government giving tax money in the form of loan to the extent of $100 Billion dollars in terms of revival loans or some other fancy names.

If you decide not to support bad companies and bad executives, the let the companies die.

Now having taken these public money, what if these companies, just have fun and not show results. What is the perks for the top execs to perform now? If you set a trend that bonuses cant be given to these companies, what prevents the highly talented execs to stick onto the bad companies... They will leave the company and join some other performing companies and get salary and bonuses and some not so intelligent characters will become CEOs of these Government funded companies.
