Images from the world of cricket

Another fwd e mail, this time filled with images of cricketing tid bits. There are some b/w images which made me think hard on my first cricket match on TV and I think it was the one when Anjali didi (a neighbor in bharatpur) forced us to watch sachin's match and made us cheer, little did I know I would be adoring him through my teen hood. 

The first image looks like a match went sour in a city like kota :D

2009 in pictures - Favorites

(download)

You gotta love the pictures time magazine photographers churn out, for me they are pictorial window to the world. Often I land up on Time to see one of their pictorial story lines, this time its the year 2009 in pictures, 47 curated pictures around the world include tales of obama change in US, war in afghanistan, elections in iran etc. These are my favorite pictures from the lot, the ones I liked without reading the caption, the ones I liked in the first view of them. To read captions/context of pictures and to see all 47 do visit the full slideshow on time

Would like to know which one is your favorite in comments.

Work desks

We have been working on kitchen shelf for last 2 months coz I wanna get the work desk I like, I have been looking at them for couple of months now and have tried almost all queries possible. These are some office desks I liked, they are mostly from the companies I like and appreciate. I dont like cubicles, I like long desks where everything looks messy (thoughtworks is the closest to the messy I imagine) but part of me also admires clean places. One of these days when my research is complete (I hope it does) I am gonna get it cloned at a local furniture store. Till then I will keep adding more. Lemme know which one you liked.

Back to mountain tops - sinhgad tweetup

If I reconnect with myself truly in all of the natural aspect of world then they have to be mountain tops. Today, I got the chance to be back on the mountain top. Loved it, lived it.

P.S I wanted to write about my association with mountains a little more, but words failed me. So maybe some other time when I am not overwhelmed by mere thoughts of them.

Only in Pakistan

I am not really allergic to forward e mails, I like fw emails with pictures and often they are funny (thanks to people in my network, I dont really get crappy ones). This one had shades of pakistan.

P.S I do hate fw mais which try to advice me on living purposeful life and also explain in detail how to lead one. Please don't send those.

Life junkie

I went into the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life...to put to rout all that was not life; and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
