Innocence @ Its Best

A little boy wanted Rs.500 very badly and prayed for weeks, But nothing happened.

Finally he decided to write a letter to GOD requesting the Rs.500 .
When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to ” God , India”,they decided to forward it to the Finance Minister of India as a JOKE.
The Finance Minister was so amused, that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy Rs.200.

The Finance Minister thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy, and he did not want to spoil the kid.The little boy was delighted with Rs.200, and decided to write a thanking reply note to God, which reads:

“Dear God: Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that you sent it through the Finance Ministry in New Delhi, and those donkeys deducted Rs.300 as taxes!”

Pleasing the boss

The boss joined a group of his workers at the coffee urn and told a seriesof jokes he’d heard recently.

Everybody laughed loudly. Everybody, thatis except Mike.

When he noticed that he was getting no reaction from Mike, the boss said,

“What’s the matter, Mike? No sense of humor?”

“My sense of humor is fine,” he said. “But I don’t have to laugh. I’m quitting tomorrow.”

China vs India w.r.t foreign investment

But many American executives and policymakers have not understood how these two Asian giants are progressing along different paths.

To understand how China is flying like a dragon, you must see how a quarter century after it began its transformation, hundreds of millions of Chinese have seen their prospects improve dramatically. The Chinese economy has blasted off. Foreign companies have poured more than $600 billion into China since 1978, far eclipsing what America spent on the Marshall Plan to save war-raged Europe after 1945.

The foreign investment in India is far smaller than in China. Foreign companies’ investment in India was just about $7.5 billion in the fiscal year that ended in last March. The companies invested the same amount in China every six weeks. India’s economy was lumbering alone, while China’s was flying into the future.

Gujarati Gazal Contd.,

મને ન પૂછ કે તારા વગર શું છૂટકો છે ?
ન પૂછ વાયુને, વાયા વગર શું છૂટકો છે ?

નસીબમાં નહીં, મહેનતમાં ફક્ત માને છે,
એ હાથને ય જો… રેખા વગર શું છૂટકો છે ?

વસંત જેવી તું આવીને વળગી બેસે તો,
આ કાષ્ઠને ય મહોર્યા વગર શું છૂટકો છે ?

ન હોય કોઈ જ્યાં બંધન ત્યાં કેવી આઝાદી ?
જો વહેવું હોય તો કાંઠા વગર શું છૂટકો છે ?

જીવન-મરણની તમે વાત લઈને બેઠા છો…
અને જીવો-મરો સ્વેચ્છા વગર, શું છૂટકો છે ?

ભલે ને તું નહીં દેખાતો હોય ક્યાંય છતાં,
તું છે એ વાતને માન્યા વગર શું છૂટકો છે ?

ભલે ને સોમી ગઝલ લખતો હોઉં હું તો પણ
વીતેલી પળ ફરી જીવ્યા વગર શું છૂટકો છે ?

Gujarati Gazal

હું કશું પણ કહું તો એ કહેશે કે, ‘હા’,
આવા સગપણને હવે ક્યાં રાખવા ?

સિક્કા ખિસ્સામાં છે તારી યાદના,
રોજ થોડા-થોડા લઉં છું કામમાં.

બંધ કરતામાં થશે ભેળાં છતાં,
તું તિરાડ જ જો, હું જોઉં બારણાં.

આયના, તડકો – ઉભયના ભાસમાં
હું મને શોધી શક્યો ન જાતમાં.

ચિત્ત, આંખો, દિલ- બધું બારીએ છે,
આ જે ઘરમાં છે, શું હું છું ? ના રે ના…

વહી ગયેલાં પાણી ભરવાં શક્ય છે?
તું ગઝલ લખ, છોડ પદ નરસિંહના.

49.5 Yuvraj to Mascarenhas, SIX!!, Yuvraj tosses it up on the middle and leg, holding its line on that occasion, Mascarenhas clears his frontfoot out of the way again and whacks it over long on for a biggie!!! meaty blow!!! Dravid asking too much from Yuvraj here

49.6 Yuvraj to Mascarenhas, SIX!!, full and straight on the stumps, Mascarenhas gives himself room and whacks it over the top, straight down the ground for another six!!! Ohh!!! My word, what a shot!!! this is like a box office opening!!! he is coming down on Yuvraj like a house on fire!!!
