Karta hoo mai sab burre kaaam
Usske baad kahta hoo Raam Raam!!!!
This one came to my mind when we were gaming one of my friends during the annual KB Party .. Not sure whether I should lay claim to this quote anyway let me keep it blogged . That way in case nobody is laying claim to it , my contribution to this big bad world will be recognized and honored . I might even be remembered as Mark Twain or GB Shaw or some other figure from past. The upcoming generations should not remember me the same way we used to remember Newton or Maxwell or Einstein or Huygens or some of those horrible people who did so much research in Physics, Chemistry and all other imaginable subjects and left so much for the young innocent people ( eg : me in 90s )to learn , memorize and then vomit it out at the time of exams .
By the way I finished off The Runner book.. Nice book , should be read at least once. Gives a different perspective of the admission criteria of colleges and the attempts made by the parent to get their kids fit into the admission criteria ...
Started with The Cell by Stephen King . It is a regular SK category gory book with a scary theme. Not as good or different as the The green Mile . Should be done with it this week.
It had been a good day , a memorable sunday , a near perfect sunday after a long long time.
The day started with whimper as I trundled at 8:55 to switch on the tv for the Federer Nadal final then trundled on towards the kitchen where I made a superb omelette and which I finished off with 5 slices of bread then it was the Euro Football match between austria and croatia and somewhere in between i remembered the F1 so one flick of my fingers I was in canada where hamilton beeped on to haikkonen throwing both of them out of the canada grand prix and then alonso bashed his car to the boundary and then i saw fishichella also going out after banging against the wall... after f1 , it was showtime .. i finished off Kite Runner and City of Joy .. Then it was a round of AoE .. After that some office work and sumptuous dinner at chikku's place with chikki going all out to give a fine display of her culinary skills.. After dinner it was again work time and then i m here blogging..
At the time I stopped AoE , i was just hanging by thread against a very high powered attack by the teuton knights civilisation of Lord Hienrich . My army was fighting in three places and also trying to protect my trade route which was my only source of gold .The internal sources of gold were exhausted . If I left my route open , enemies were slipping in and if i left my route closed then no gold for making army.. And when I sent a good wave of soldiers to protect the route , teutonians came calling..
Waves and waves of advanced teutons protecting the trebs were attacking my walled city..
A very huge attack by three civilisations breached the walls for the first time .. On seeing this, I sent all the soldiers inside to stop the first wave of attackers, gathered my army at other places and bought them to the aid to the besieged defenders.. As my army left the trade route unprotected, enemy soldiers slipped in through the trade route, so I had to sent another lot over there .. With my superior numbers and strong economy,I was able to resist against first wave of attack ....After beating back the first attack , i sent some more soldiers to protect the trade route . It was at that time teutons again came calling.. Since i was running short on gold , i had to resort to the cheaper halberdiers and skirmisher for the protection .. Skirmishers harmed teutons only from behind the wall , once the walls were breached skirmishers were nothing ..and then 6 trebs were bombing my walls .. With not many trebs of my own , the only way to destroy the trebs was to attack them with soldiers but the teutons were not letting any of my soldiers to pass through .. So i had to disengage the teutons at one place and send palladins to destroy the trebs .. palladins were expensive but that was the only option for the time being and so i had a group of palladin collecting a bit away from the battlefield .. the moment trebs came and teutons raced towards the wall , these palladins used to attack the trebs from behind the lines .. my superior strategy resulted in teuton attacks petering out ... by that time I had a solid wall across my trade route ...
As the trickle of gold became a sizeable flow , i jumped from halberdier to champions ,skirmisher to arrow horseman and a continuous stream of Palladins and that was the end ,,
Btw , The City of Joy was banned in India by the Nehru govt for portraying India in a bad light .. Well some scenes about the conditions in India were bad however the movie spoke tons about the never die spirit
It is very hot over here . Our AC has been up since morning and but the room temperature has not gone below 76 F ... Since morning !!!!.. what about my carbon footprint and the resulting damage to the mother earth .. should i switch off the AC ???? I guess not .. PM is in deep slumber in the next room , if i switch off the AC , he will leave his footprints on my face ...
p.s - 3 years down the lane , this was indeed a very memorable weekend.
