Funny Pictures

Can you guess, who they are?

Yes, they are william sisters, Serena and Venus. No doubt, they are great players and people love to watch them on tennis court but never like this in such attire. They can give Indian Eunuchs a run for their money

P.S. Serena and Venus participated in Bengaluru Open held last week. Serena lifted the winner’s trophy. I appreciate their love for Indian culture.

Last month, Mr. Lalu Prasad Yadav (no this is not the funny part) presented Rail Budget and he received acclaims for keeping it people-friendly. I wonder if in future, a Railway Ticket would look like this…

A Marathi Poem for Singles ..

कितिहि सुदर मुलगी दिसली तरी,
तीचि स्तुति करुन तिला
हरबरयाच्या झाडावर चढ्वायला
आम्हाला कधि जमलेच नाहि ॥१॥
म्हणुन आम्हाला प्रेम…

कोणाच्या मागे शिट्ट्यामारत फिरन
आमच्या तत्वात कधि बसलेच नाहि ॥२॥
म्हणुन आम्हाला प्रेम..

कोणिजर आवड्लिच तर
स्वतः हुन गप्पांना सुरवात करायला
आम्हाला कधि जमलेच नाहि ॥३॥
म्हणुन आम्हाला प्रेम..

दुसरयाचे विचार ऎकत असतांना
आपले विचार मांडण्याचि संधि
आम्हाला कधि साधताच आलि नाहि ॥४॥
म्हणुन आम्हाला प्रेम..

कधि हिंमत करुन कोणाला जर विचारलेच
तर मी तुला त्या द्रुषटिनि कधि बघितलेच नाहि
यावेतिरिक्त दुसरे काहि
आम्हाला ऎकायलाच मिळाले नाहि ॥५॥
म्हणुन आम्हाला प्रेम…

प्रेमात नाहिचा अर्थ हो असतो
हे गणित आम्हाल कधि समजलेच नाहि ॥६॥
म्हणुन आम्हाला प्रेम..

फुलपाखरा प्रमाणे आम्हि हि
बरयाच सुदर फुलां मधे वाव्ररत होतो
पण जाउन बसन्यासारखे फुल
अजुन आम्हाला दिसलेच नाहि ॥७॥
म्हणुन आम्हाला प्रेम करायला अजुन जमलेच नाहि……..

Budget Highlights 2008

It was the last budget of the current UPA government and it was presented by none other than the record-holder P Chindambaram. Mr. FM was well aware of the consequences. If it’s a feel-good one, people and media will take no time to declare it a populist and election-oriented budget. If it’s not, the government will be criticized for working for the well-being of a particular section of the society and anti-incumbency wave will wipe out their hopes of getting re-eleceted in the forthcoming by-elections. PC made a wise decision and his budget looked much like his party’s election manifesto.

Here’s a compilation of some important points of this budget.
