First Time in My Life

I am not sure whether it is a fad or what .. but read this on lots of blogs .. what is that which you did for the first time in your life recently???

Hmmmm.... gotcha Bowling !!

Surprises ---
1. The ball is a really heavy one. I totally understimated it before lifting. Thank God, it didn't fail on my feet when I tried to pick for the first time casually.

2. You need skill to get your finger out of the ball quickly at right time otherwise be ready to loose your one of the fingers .. don't worry you have 9 more to go.

3. It's all about foot work.

4. It's all about "Instru" --- the robotics arm which picks up the bottles and arranges them,the underground conveyor belt .. lots of gizmos!

5. It is costly affair :-( Doncha think 24 bucks per hours + 8 bucks for shooes is little more

6. Lastly ... I luv the game and wanna go again to Techcity Kirkland to cry "TAKE THAT, YOU!!!"

31st @ Space Needle

57..58..59..60..... the lift was going up on Space Needle to celebrate yet another year end...

I was fortunate enough to get a glimpse of this spectacular Fire Works.

The lift touched the top most floor exactly at 12:00 and the colorful sparks started dancing everywhere around the Space Needle...

I was really nostalgic ... just thought about 2k5 ... by any parameter the 2k5 was a memorable and successful one..

Let 2k6 be even more...

Tathastu... Amen!!

Everybody Loves Raymond....

After a routine grilling at office, I come home and find solace in watching "Everybody Loves Raymond" on TBS.

I don't need to write a whole new blog to tell you what "Everybody ..." is all about.

It's about a fun loving family. Though Everybody loves Raymond .. I love Debra too!!

Debra(Patricia Heaton) is a cute & homely lady . I did a lot of soul search why I like her. I could come up with 3 reasons
1. Her looks are Indian ( mano ya na mano)
2. She looks like Gayatri Joshi ( Geetli from Swades)
3. Her role is of a housewife. It is a simple role which typically reminds me of "Tu Tu Mein Mein"

BTW she picked up Emmy twice.
