U really need a nice blog humor award buddy. Damn cool.

Awesome. Was waiting when you'll put up a post on the 5 yearly festival in India-Elections; and boy you didn't disappoint. Hilarious as usual, but it does bring out the dark truths about the country and its politicians.
I am thinking of canceling my subscription to CNN, provided you come out with more of these news capsules! At least with all the humor here, i will probably live longer!
:D

At election time, I have an extra hobby of following political cartoons in news paper :D:D

In Karnataka, IT minister’s confirms his statement about industry being in the pink of health was a slip of the tongue. Employees still confused.

good one again.. enjoyed it a lot.. thanks.. :D
But one thing is that some of your previous posts are better than this.. :)
hmmmm..Lol Maths as always loved reading the pieces:
would suggest two additions
1.School of drama have decided to setup a special curriculum update committee to shoot and analyse the reactions of some of the disappointed 'sincere' politicians who were been discarded to serve their people for another term ..News is that 'navarasams' are to be declared as an old branch,since we have great actors who have come up with more innovative ones !!
2.Pressure invokes deep creative pain everyone know !! Happy that Politicians are joining the saga too..thus informs news from Delhi..Many those who are waiting for tickets are onto creative work..Long live Indian Democracy !!
Regional, national, international - you didn't spare anyone. I guess your humor gene came from your 18-year old grandma. :-)
lol Apply for a reporter job pls ;)
