ROENIK SINGH MAHAL
So, what do you do when your brother and sister-in-law have a brand new bouncing baby boy? Well, you think hard about the congratulations you are about to offer. You prepare your warmest of handshakes and warmest of hugs.
But in the back of your mind, you start to plot. You see, the parents are die hard Leaf fans. You walk into a baby clothes store when all of a sudden the opportunity presents itself.
There, hung proudly on the rack, is the Montreal Canadiens outfit you know would make the bouncing baby boy glow. Except there is no way this outfit makes it to within ten feet of the baby. How do you get the outfit on him?
You pull out the violin and start playing on the heartstrings. You ask your son (The Little Man) who is much loved by the newborn baby’s parents to give the outfit to the father. There’s no way the gift will be refused.
And it wasn’t. Jeet, was kind and gracious, and ultimately knew the outfit came from me, but he still donned it on his first born son.
With the warmest of wishes, congratulations to Jeet and Deepa Mahal, on their 9lb. 5oz. baby boy, Roenik Mahal.

Spending will make you happier, but not in the way you think. Interesting read over at Secular Philosophy.

Chrisopher Hitchens nails it yet again with this piece for Slate Magazine. After reading the piece, I’m inclined to agree with a lot of it.

When flying 35,000 feet above land, I stare down at the natural landscape and marvel at it ... and every time I fly over a city, town, etc. ... I can’t help but to think ... so this is what cancer looks like.
I know, it’s harsh, but have a look, cities and towns just don’t blend very well with the natural landscape.

According to this read over at Dailytech, the XBOX360 has a 33% failure rate! Like what?? Like how much? Like one in every three units will have hardware failure! I love my box ... and I’m touching wood it stays in with the other 66%.

Old news for some of you out there, but “Demon Days” by Gorillaz ... not bad eh? Not bad at all. Nice tunes on that list.

Yes it’s true .. i know Gorn and I also know ShoeGirl. Personally, I think he could have gone a lot more than 30 days.

A 16 year old girl proclaimed she is an atheist. The reporter asked her why and she promptly replied, “I was born that way.”
Interesting ... she’s right, you know.

Kingdom Of Heaven: The story of Balian’s quest for redemption and his battles against those who seek power in it’s name. This is an excellent movie whose message is perhaps more important today than it was then.
Dawkins tackles it all in his no holds barred approach to whether God exists. The stance? The probability of it? Very unlikely.
"Hopes and Fears” and “Under The Iron Sea” by Keane get constant play from my iTunes. Find out why their music is so good. After all they were the band that inspired Coldplay.
As Marcus Fenix, you fight a war against the immense Locust Horde, which not only out powers but outnumbers you, your squad, and the entire force of the Coalition of Ordered Governments. Time to pull out the stops in a game that delivers the next-generation in tactical combat systems in Gears of War.
