No no he didn't do that one, but my goodness he is the current best selling stand-up in the world. Yes folks i'm talking about the one and only Russell Peters!

We took a trip down to watch his second coming to Singapore (previous trip in 06) as part of the Red,White & Brown tour. My wife, who wasn't previously a huge fan, came along to check him out, and was instantly transformed! We met up with G there, and while Joel couldn't make it, my cousin Sachin was more then glad to take up the extra ticket.

It was a sellout, as they organised an extra show based on ticket sales.

Russell Rocks!!!


and yes this post is delayed too.. hahaha but the next one is up to date.... who knows i may even summarise all that has happened in the past month!

Nim & Tracy do the "I Do's"

((This post has been waaay delayed, but it has been a busy month! Sorry Nim hehehe))


my pal from faculty, though two batches my junior, but a close pal finally took the next step when Nimalan wed his sweetheart of many years, Tracy, in a simple yet joyous occasion in the Assumption Church in PJ just recently.

From the beaming bride, to the proud mother of the groom, to the happy atmosphere generated by the friends and family, it was a simple celebration of the union. Below are some of the pics i (Thani too) managed to snap.

Here's to the beginning of a wonderful journey together you two!



And at the dinner.....

back from a blog-break

yes i admit i was a little lazy past few days since the last post. but here i am!

lots of things have happened, and the next few days are busy as well, so i should be able to put up a few posts in the next few hours, before going AWOL again on friday onwards hehehe.

oh did anyone realise? 2008 just zoomed past and 09 is just around the corner? well looky looky.... gonna be another fast one i suppose....

VERY short work week

hehehe yes that's right this week is a short work week for me.... but then i'm making it even shorter.... a close friend of mine, a co-movie-freakazoid partner in crime is getting hitched to the woman of his dreams this saturday in KL, and we're gonna be attending!

i know he's probably not going to be free enuff to read this post till way after the ceremonies, so i'll post the full details when i'm back.

oh did i mention....on sunday i'm headed way way south to our neighbour country... why may you ask.... well since we don't get any quality performances/concerts/shows/plays here in bolehland.... i had to make do with what i could.... no way was i going to miss a show by Russell Peters eh....

so catch you guys next week!

mind of a genius? maybe, but i would like to peek into it...

caught an interesting article this morning, an excerpt from an interview done with the manager of a certain opposition club. now while he has been the scourge of scousers for many years, i do find his interviews, and writings to be one of great experiences and knowledge of a man who has indeed had his fair share of em.

yes George, we're talking about ur fav , Sir Alex..... interesting read this one....

Headlines from across the web

As you all know Liverpool were decidedly the better team against Chelsea, not allowing them to dictate play, pumping high balls rather then play us off the park, and were limited to long range shots. Xabi Alonso's goal at 10 minutes was eventually the decider, as Liverpool matched and controlled a major portion of the game!

Here are a collection of the headlines from various news portals:
