He basked behind the sun;
He lived a life of going-to-do;
And died with nothing done !!

A disappointed salesman of Coca Cola returns from his Middle-East assignment.
A friend asked, “Why weren’t you successful with the Arabs…?”
The salesman explained:
“When I got posted to the Middle East, I was very confident that I would make a good sales pitch as Cola is virtually unknown there. But, I had a problem. I didn’t know the language (Arabic). So, I planned to convey the message through three posters…”
First poster: A man lying in the hot desert sand…totally exhausted and fainting.
Second poster: The man drinking our Cola.
Third poster: Our man is now totally refreshed.
These posters were pasted all over the place.
“Then that should have worked!” said the friend.

“The hell it should have” said the salesman.
“Didn’t realize that Arabs read from right to left”

Words to say
Feelings to sweep
Love to express
And promises to keep
A trivial inhibition
But a wavering mind
A selfish decision
And an act unkind
Sky owes him ……Some Empathy
Unspoken thoughts
Actions to justify
Direction to pursue
Notions to defy
Worldly reasons
Messed up heart
A faltering love
And time to part
He owes her ……An Apology
Unsolicited lies
Reality endorsed
Futile concerns
Betrayal exposed
Shaken trust
Baffled mind
Time to move on
Emotions to unwind
She owes him ……Forgiveness

It?s amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don?t say a thing.
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There?s a truth in your eyes sayin? you?ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you?ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old mr. webster could never define
What?s being said between your heart and mine
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There?s a truth in your eyes sayin? you?ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you?ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There?s a truth in your eyes sayin? you?ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you?ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all.

Bad times can bring out the best and the worst of us. There is a character with a huge heart and apparently stacks of cash for needy folks willing to wait in line for it in Time Square.
He has been cast as “Bailout Bill” and he has created a stir because he is giving away money directly to those in need, figuring that the folks on the bottom rung of the ladder need just as much help as those at the top, that the government has been bailing out.
According to reports, In order to get the money people have to go to the ‘Bailout Booth’ in the heart of Manhattan’s Times Square; to a small cubicle, where, depending on your story you can get a cash stipend to help out with a present financial dilemma.
I think this is a great idea and I hope the word spreads fast because this is the type of behavior that would be worthy of copycats. The ideal copycat to me would be those Wall Street traders (or traitors, depending on your view) that reaped billions of dollars in fallacious bonuses.
Of course ‘my pal Warren’ (Warren Buffett of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A) fame) should have thought of this first and I hope he is reading this or one of his associates passes this along. The board members of every company that has received federal bailout money should also take notice.
This idea can also be extended further. Some people might just need some counsel about how to deal with a short term problem when they cannot afford top tier advice. Ahh — but free advice might not be worth much and cash is king. Bailout Bill is doing his best to make those in need feel like king for a day.

Like many other of my kind, I am a victim of inquisitiveness and an urge to create. Creativity is not a virtue of the very few…Each of us has some such manifestation which may or may not get visibility. Some hide it because they are shy while others hide it unbeknown. Childhood for its very innocence has the strength to break the shell and not care about anything. Of all that I fancied back then, I thought I wouldn’t want to relive any of those now until my friend re-introduced me to LEGOS.
Simply put the “Building block toys” which could captivate me for hours. Complexity varying from 8 to 10000 pieces, joining them together one by one seems like building an ocean drop by drop. The most amazing moment is when you see the parts moving together in unison. And then you blurt out “That’s my baby” J
Well, I am helping my friend build a Motorized BullDozer Lego (approx 1300 pieces).
Ok Ok…..I shouldn’t say “helping”, rather, seizing the opportunity to do it myself. When I should rather be getting some others tasks accomplished, I feel so contented clicking and clamping.
More updates and hopefully some pics to follow.
UPDATE: Its done…..and it moves……..and its terrific
yayyyyyy

Upon taking up residency in the White House, a president also assumes a tidy salary of $400,000 a year, plus extra cash for expenses. That’s certainly not the kind of change you’d find under most couch cushions, but it’s not such a princely sum that the president will be set for life when leaving office. While many leaders are either independently rich enough or old enough that they just retire after leaving office, others are desperate to make a buck or a pound. So how do ex-presidents and other former world leaders support themselves as they while away the autumn of their years?

There comes a point in your life when you realize:
· who matters,
· who never did,
· who won’t anymore…
· and who always will.
So, don’t worry about people from your past,
there’s a reason why they didn’t make it to your future.

A visitor from Holland was chatting with his American friend and was jokingly explaining about the red, white and blue in the Netherlands flag. “Our flag symbolizes our taxes,” the man said. “We get red when we talk about them, white when we get our tax bill, and blue after we pay them.” “That’s the same with us, the American said, “only we see stars, too.”

I am from Japan, she said
The land of the rising sun
The leaders in cars and engines
And electronics for having fun
I am from Philippines, he said
The pearl of the orient seas
Named after the prince of Spain
You are invited to the ocean breeze.
I am from Korea, she said
The land of the morning calm
The pioneers in printing and stars
We strongly support “no harm”
I am from India, he said
The brightest Jewel in the Crown
Unity in diversity for real
We are one secular town
I am from US she said
The golden land for the opportune
Think hard before you gamble
Wall street might crack you soon
I am from Thailand, he said
The colorful land of Smiles
Cuisine delicious and hot
And beauty spread over miles
I hear them all in awe
In geography are they bound
No one has lived forever
All go back in the ground
They boast of what is trivial
That’s insane and not so norm
All creations of the same almighty
Why wonder where who came from

He didn’t like the curry
And he didn’t like my cake
Said my biscuits were too hard….
Unlike what his mom used to make.
I could not make the coffee
He didn’t like my stew
I didn’t mend his socks
The way his mom used to do.
I pondered for an answer
I was looking for a clue
Isn’t there anything I could do
To match his mothers shoes
Then I smiled as I saw light
One thing I could definitely do
I turned around and slapped him tight….
Like his mother used to!!!!
