2 hrs before take off...

Writes Anand Vasu in Cricinfo " As he walked back to the pavilion, raising the bat to acknowledge the raucous applause of a grateful Nagpur crowd, the Sri Lankans would have heaved a sigh of relief to see the back of that No. 33 jersey. One is not sure why Tendulkar chose that number on his comeback, rather than the customary No. 10, but hey, it hardly matters what number plate you hang on some machines. A Ferrari is still always a Ferrari. " My eyes lit up as i read the write up posted above.We tried to get video streaming link yesterday but it did'nt work well at the Sheraton. Sachinnnnn...Sachinnn...!! the chant will continue at Mohali for sure

Between scheduled Load tests and performance tuning exercises we did manage some stunts ..choreographed by Yan Team CADDIS has also been practicing football throws to add variety to office life . Work can be fun too..have to get ready for a hair cut before the weekly errand to Sunnyvale Laterzz

Caught up with KK at the Mariott Sunnyvale after almost 2 yrs.The Sangamam plan( we call meetings by this name) at Saravana Bhavan turned out to be a reality. Met a stud Rajan and reserved Mabban there.It was good fun having the traditional 'Manga' for 2 full days.The lunch at Madhu's place topped with Chardonnay was worth the 2 hr drive from Sacramento. The next 2 months will be good fun ..hope to make up for the 2 months of solitude in Seattle ,July and August 2005 were like hell

If there was something i wish i could do ,i wish i could render 'Vathapi Ganapathim' like Yesudas (http://www.musicindiaonline.com/l/1/m/artist.12/ ) ..search for Vathapi Ganapathim I am totally at awe,spellbound ..dasettan is divine!!

GMAT quant was a breeze contrary to my expectation.I am satisfied with my score given the time and effort i put in.Wish i had done the OG one more time,but all's well that ends well. A special thanks to Sathish and Siva who came all the way to the Pro Metric testing centre and made sure i was in the best spirits to take the test. The ISB dream is still distant but i can see light at the end of the tunnnel :-)
