Baseball has always been an exciting affair for me… the Strike outs, the home runs, the lights, the gear, the balls, the cheers… everything is so super exciting… In this side of the world, baseball is not really one of the most sought after sports, however the opportunities to watch baseball on diferent channels has always kept the interest alive…

i have been trying to follow the games on TV, however have always wanted to be in a position to watch one of these games live… i am sure the excitement levels are at a different level altogether when you are watching the game… and the best part is that one can also get the tickets online these days, thanks to the internet and companies like team-one sports… I was able to get a lot of details about the games and the Chicago Cubs Spring Training Tickets while browsing through this website… It was nice to get the information on the available tickets, the seating chart along with the detailed maps of the parks where the games are held… impressive and doable… looks like the feel of watching a game from one of the best seats is not too far away if you are really keen…

But when ur swimming in the midst on -ve thoughts

Prashant:
when you are swimming in water, you still need air na

Friend:
I wouldn’t mind chopping off a few heads

Prashant:
so even after being totally wet and almost drowning, you try to come up to the surface and breathe
and once you can do that breathing again, you are comfortable in water as well…

Friend:
🙂
ok

Prashant:
Breathing at ease and swimming at will…

Someone makes you laugh your ass out !!!

does that mean that the person has a great sense of humor? probably yes…

but then the person who is laughing is more important then the person in question actually… if “you” do not appreciate that humor, if the words coming out this guys mouth do not trickle “your” funny bone, this guy is nothing…

I can say this with confidence because I have been complimented and accused of having a certain sense of humor by my friends, or people I know or talk to… the same lines make a few friends laugh and they are kind enough to talk about how i bring smiles into their life, and at the same time, with the same damn lines, i can manage to piss off a certain set of people… not that I try to bring humor at the cost of someone !!! but this is a sincere observation…
i love to make people i care of smile, and at times i manage to do that just fine too… and i also have people who will not just understand what i am talking about… so its a funny mix…

so before i write further… let me thank everyone who manages to find me funny and live with my sense of humor 🙂

and that brings me to the philosophical angle of this post as well… more often then not we blame/credit someone else for the good or bad that happens to us… and example was the people who find me funny complimenting me for having a great sense of humor and another example is of people who blame others for things that are happening in their life professionally or personally.

I mean what is maturity all about? understand what you want and doing things that you feel is right… and when the result is something that you did not expect, you conveniently put the blame on someone else… and get out of the picture… i see this happening all the time in my office… and have seen loads of incidents similar in nature personally too…

Like i wrote in one of my previous posts as well, only I am absolute, and everything else is relative… I choose if what happens around hurts me, makes me feel good, bad, angry, frustrated, educated, left out, ignored, blamed, honored… most of it happens automatically, but only if i have chosen it that way sometime in the past…

I guess, i live the way i choose to…

do you?

Metal has always been very attractive to the human kind… the shine the luster, the use the attraction is very hard to ignore… and over the years we have moved on to be more specific about the metals that we like… Gold, Silver, and Platinum are the most sought after these days… with Gold being the conventional winner…

Starting from a time when gold and silver used to be purchased in the form of jewelery and was used more as an accessory, however these days, it has graduated from being just a piece of jewelery to an investment. One company that has been facilitating purchase of gold in America has been the Monex Deposit company. You can purchase either coins or ingots from the company and either arrange for a personal delivery, or a safe and convenience storage at an independent bank or repository. For over 30 years now, Monex has been leading the gold and precious metal investments, and that too at very convenient market and competitive precious metal prices.

Have you been to The Compliment Club?

This is in continuation with what I had written about the page popularity on my blogs sometime back. As I said, the blogs have come a long way from just being online diaries to a lot more.

Today you can expect and also get much much more then just a day to day routine life from a blog. I have managed to find more information about my line of Business, ITIL from blogs more then the websites. I managed to read more about the mobile technology from Tushar’s blog then from the resources on the net. A blog today can serve as the ultimate source of information, and you also can showcase to the world about your subject matter knowledge as well through your blog.

Next comes the financial aspect of the same where the companies who want to get popular also resort to some advertising through blogs, both personal and professional.

Something like Google Ads, which we are familiar with in India… There are more sites of like Payperpost of similar nature that would help both the blog owner and an advertiser earn money together, creating an environment where everyone gains…

There is more happening on the internet then anyone of us know… I like it…

I am born today…

out of blood, out of pain, out of screams, and right now am in a place which looks new… I don’t know what feeling is this… am i hungry? why can’t i speak? i guess I can only cry… will that make these people around me understand that i am hungry… oh what the heck… lets give it a shot… maybe someone has been as small as me and would understand that I am hungry….

woh… why are they lifting me up and moving my entire body? HEY !!! let me down… i am only hungry not bored because I cannot move…

let me cry somemore… maybe they will understand now…

.
.
.

no they don’t and they call themselves adults… thats what i heard !!!

but then hey… crying isn’t helping either… let me just smile… may be that will help…

oh… it does… everyone around me suddenly seems happy…

phew… i am bored…

lets sleep for a while… in anycase there is not much to do when you are a new born baby…

someone.. get me a pillow please… will you !!!

Gift…

isn’t that a word that usually would excite you immidiately, when you are going to get one that is 🙂

and when you have give someone, something… this word would usually start a chain of thoughts in your mind… Here is a simple solution if you are thinking of buying something related to optics…

All you need to do is go to this site called the Optics Planet.

Choose the category that you want to browse, and then check out the loads of options made available to you by the site… You can browse through binoculars, telescopes, microscopes, sunglasses, magnifiers, printers, scanners and what not… I think i can spend a whole day writing about the categories and what all do you get in those categories…

Oh and for people who might be looking for gifts for me… I would not really mind getting a pair of binoculars and a telescope 🙂

thanks in advance 🙂
