Did You Know Bono

Did you know that Bono, the frontman for the rock band U2, is the only person on earth nominated for an Oscar, Grammy, Golden Globe and Nobel Peace Prize?

I never knew that until today – found through NTDWA

    The picture’s shaky but I swear it was Nafisa holding the little mouse by its tail. My wife who is afraid of roaches playing with a saved-from-drowning mouse.

    The poor thing got a new lease on life.

    Just something I did before Renie, Karthik, Nafisa and myself set about having a good party a couple of weeks ago. When I was feeling a little bored.

    The Bhachchans Show The Finger

    If I showed you this picture without the caption what will you think? I honestly had only one thought in my mind. Damn!

    1may09-008

    The above was the feature picture in the back of today’s edition of The Hindu. The picture looks as if Amitabh, Aishwarya and Abishek Bachchan are showing ‘a’ finger at the camera and it happens to be the middle finger where all three have seem to have got their voting marks.

    Hmmm… interesting. I swear I checked other pictures in The Hindu today where everybody else got their voting marks on their index fingers. If you doubt me go check The Hindu dated May 01, 2009, Bangalore edition (I am not sure about the other States).

    Or is this a ‘cool’ statement? I mean, like, ‘yoo hoo, power to the people’ and then show the fingers symbolising something? Or is it too much conspiracy theory?
