Commonwealth Games Jokes Galore!

The Commonwealth Games mess has certainly angered the aam aadmi. But many choose to laugh off the matter. And guess what, even Sharad Pawar has chipped in by making some hilarious statements. Since the last two weeks I've been getting loads of jokes through SMSes. Most of them are directed against Suresh Kalmadi, the sutrasanchalak, the man behind the entire mess. Here are some of them...

"Amazing but true : If you re-arrange the letters "Sir U made lakhs" you get "SURESH KALMADI!"

"Question: How many contractors are required to change a light bulb in Delhi?
Answer: 1 Million - 1 to change bulb and rest 999,999 to hold the ceiling"

"There will be only one sport this year in CWG 2010....swimming...since Delhi is flooded."

"Terrorists set to skip CWG 2010 citing unlivable conditions and fear for their safety."

What's common between CWG committee and most students?  Both start their preparations at the 11th hour"

"It's now time for bookies to bet which roof will fall next at the CWG 2010"

"At the 100 mts. race, they may fix a signboard  - 'MEN AT WORK, GO SLOW'"

Sharad Pawar's dig - "Suresh Kalmadi tried to commit suicide by hanging himself. But, the ceiling collapsed!!"

"Nobody would have pulled out of CWG, if Suresh Kalmadi's dad would have pulled out on time"

"BREAKING NEWS:  A.R. Rehman's song dropped out of CWG. Instead Kalmadi will dance at the opening ceremony, to the song 'Sadke jam hui CWG ke liye, Dilli badnaam hui, darling mere liye'....."

"Bulk SMS ban was for preventing people forwarding 'Kalmadi jokes'."

"Compromise proposal for Ayodhya: Let the Hindus construct a temple, but the project must be led by Kalmadi!"

"Yamuna floods update: the cause of floods is not the release of water from Hathnikund barrage, Shera has been weeping continuously for three months which caused the floods. "

"Supreme court directs OC to print new tickets with a warning, 'carry helmet while attending the games'."

"Sarah Palin knows more about world politics than Lalit Bhanot about hygiene!"

"Gill calling himself a sports lover is like Shiney Ahuja declaring himself to be a feminist!"


I'll try and update as and when I receive more jokes....

Posting after a whopping two years!!

Whew! Finally, after two long years, I'm posting. Many of my accounts with certain blogging related services have been suspended. For one reason or the other, I was not able to find time or the will to blog my mind off. Well, I certainly hope to have a decent start now. And by the way, Blogger is sporting quite a new look with many features being added. It'll take some time to get accustomed to these.

Anyone with any suggestions/help, please let me know....

My Own Garlic Sauce!

The other day I was alone in the house groping around for food. Mummy had made some chapatis, but nothing to accompany it. I thought of ordering some vegetable dish or dal. But since I was tired of all the usual stuff, I decided to try something new. Something which consumed less resources and be tasty at the same time.

Crank! And there I was! I starting off with chopping of garlic flakes. Later, I added a half a teaspoon of oil in a pan, heated it and browned the chopped garlic. Now this was the most important step. Tomato ketchup was added slowly and from a distance, as it starts sputtering very badly due to the oil. A few stirs, and my garlic sauce was ready!

Yes, it was this easy. I really don't know how it came into my mind. But the taste was really good, although not like the original garlic sauce. Sounds tantalizing, doesn't it? A piece of advice - add as much less oil as you can, preferably about 1/4 teaspoon, just enough to moisten the pan. Secondly, add the ketchup gradually. You can also try some variations like using tomato chili sauce. Whatever you do, do it sensibly(so that you don't blame me in the end).

So, that's be a Visor's wise preparation, isn't it?
