Assorted Links

1) ND Tiwari says sorry but insists he is innocent - What does that even mean? Innocence, as in, innocence of a child in a 86 year old? He also claims that it is a political conspiracy - I can’t fathom how a bedroom issue can become a political issue? Probably I am too innocent, no? Times of India definitely is not , especially with this headline.

 2) Sri Lanka ‘chickened’ out - So says the DDCA VP. A dangerous pitch. Ball shooting off the pitch from a good length, which is almost impossible to play. Enough said. God help the Commonwealth Games scheduled in the same town, come June ‘10. How does ‘Usain Bolt chickens out of Commonwealth’ sound to you? Not very good? I thought so. 

 3) Tharoor does it again, on Twitter - Politicians are being slammed for stating their opinions directly to the people. Immense fun ensues. As I said on Facebook, we have a very good benchmark for our politicians. We are ok with corruption, but not with sex. We are fine with rowdiness and flinging mikes but not comfortable with frank opinions. We are indeed a land of diversity. 

4) Haha, immense schadenfraude. Don’t mess with an intern.

 5) Trust the Nytimes to come up with a date which means something, again!
