yesterday was one of the happiest days for indian cricket. graham ford rejected the bcci's offer to coach the indian team. the richest board, a cricket crazy nation, talented bunch of cricketers and ford refuses. should be a sad day no? most laughed their guts out at the bcci mandarins...non-player of all kinds - businessmen, politicians, lawyers you name it run the board, the players - the CIRCUS. serves them right.
its unbearable outside. north india is sizzling. here in bombay its windy and cool one minute and hot and damp the next. then the luxury of the office air conditioner. nobody wants to go out even to have lunch. back home i don't have an a.c. sometimes it gets difficult to sleep nowadays. how will it be next year?
carbon footprint. its the next big word. we will have smart t-shirts and coffeee mugs with environment conscious one-liners. proceeds can even go to green peace. even in this heat people in the office rush to smoke every half hour or so. i wonder how. i too had the habit for 9 years. but isn't it HOT!!
a suggestion: what if we make a timeline. all cities in the world shut down for a day one after the other, starting alphabetically. just stay at home. don't drive your bike, car or switch your a.c - let life come to a standstill for a day. might come in handy later.
