Sachin's 100th century


Enjoy the comments on Sachin's 100th century:

1. Digvijay Singh - Sachin is an RSS agent. All these days he was waiting to score his century against a Muslim country.
2. Manmohan Singh - I congratulate Sachin and also appreciate leadership of Shrimati Sonia Gandhi.
3. Rahul Gandhi - My grandmother created Bangladesh. She deserves the credit for this century.
4. Raj Thakrey - Sachin has proved himself to be a true Marathi Manus after scoring this century. So what if India has lost, Maharashtrians can not take the responsibility of the whole nation.
5. Mulayam Singh Yadav
 - If Sachin was from UP, I would have made tickets of all Cricket matches 'Tax free'.
6. Anna Hazare - Sachin deserves to be the next lokpal of the country.
7. Baba Ramdev - If you multiply all the runs Sachin has made by a billion is what is the total black money in foreign countries.
8. Kapil Sibal - Social media need to control comments on Sachin's century. It will harm the fabric of secularism in India.
9. Swami Agnivesh - Now that Bangladesh has helped Sachin score his 100th century, they have proved to be a true friend of India. Lets welcome their citizen in India and let them live wherever they can. Lets issue them voter's ID card .
10. Kris Srikkant - We selectors hope that by 2050, Sachin will also score his 150th century.
11. Arjun Tendulkar - I want to play with my father in 2020 world cup.
12. Sachin Tendulkar himself - Aaeellaaaa.. Now what excuse I will make to not retire.
13. Sonia Gandhi
 - Er... She did not respond since she is suffering from an undisclosed disease.
14. Karunanidhi.......Who is Sachin Tandulkar?
15. Jayalalitha.....Sometimes Sashikala could have been right. She said
something about this guy. I ignored it as I thought that he was a Bollywood filmstar...In any case Dr. MGR was a better player
The best one indeed from Mamta:
She said- She was not consulted in advance on such massive score hike, hence the century should be rolled back to 90. She also demanded if it is not rolled back or withdrawn by weekend, Sachin should be replaced in the team

God, Sania doesn’t have to do 7 pheras with Shoaib. She’ll never get
past the first round.

April

Sachin Tendulkar’s birthday today? Let’s celebrate it as runmashtami.
The good thing is that Sachin has turned 37. This means, for the next
365 days, he will be in his prime.

If Vijay Mallya had his way, after the quarter-finals, IPL would have
the half-finals & full-final.

And the post-IPL party starts. Unfortunately, all the recent
happenings only go to prove that an honest politician is the exception
rather than Tharoor.

May

If India were a gym, Delhi would be the sauna, Chennai, the steam-room
& Bangalore, the a/c reception. Mumbai will be the pool in 2 months.

If he’s sentenced to death, Kasab will be 51st in the queue. “Capital”
punishment just means your file is stuck in Delhi.

Subhash Ghai was ahead of his times. He introduced 4G in 1989. A-G,
oh- G, lo-G, suno-G.

June

FIFA World Cup provides lots of kicks. Hope Greece is not given a
penalty. They’ll say they have no money to pay it. I don’t think
Mexico will make any attempt at the Argentinian goal. A Mexican can’t
take a shot without salt and lemon.

If India had qualified for the World Cup, Chetan Bhagat would have
been goalie & Mamata the forward. He can block, she can strike.

TN may free 500 convicts to mark Tamil conference. Why, may I know?
Did classical Tamil have shorter sentences?

July

Petrol price increased again. An optimist will now look at his tank as
half fuel.

are bagged by earthlings.

Spot-fixing controversy hits Pakistan cricket. Pakistan is the world
champion in book cricket.

September

1.6 million meals to be served during CWG. Oh. No wonder they have
created such a big mess.

What Delhi needs is some Ram Sene folks. They won’t let the mosquitoes
breed till they get married.

I propose that we make mosquitoes our national insect. Then the
government will try to protect them and they’ll become extinct.

Ayodhya verdict happens. Seems to be on the basis of Share-ya law.
This Ayodhya issue is quite complex. Hindus want a temple, Muslims
want a mosque, while Mayawati actually wants a statue.

Raymonds wants to sponsor the Ayodhya verdict, because it turned out
to be a 3-piece suit.

October

Obama’s goal seems to be to see as much of India and as little of
Indians as possible.

Advice to Arundhati Roy : if at first you don’t secede, cry, cry, cry again.

Valmiki used to hang out in one.

November

Today is the day Krishna slays Narakusara, Rama returns to Ayodhya,
Mahavira attains moksha, and Airtel makes a killing. Happy Diwali. The
more the number of Diwali sweets in your house, the faster they get
spoilt : burfi’s law.

Raja scam explodes. A Raja is living proof that there is a pot of gold
at the end of the spectrum. In India, scams have an alarming
frequency. And now, with Raja, frequencies have an alarming scam.

Manmohan Singh’s Third Law of Motion : Every action has an equal and
opposite inaction. One day there will be a movie made about Manmohan
Singh. And the director will go, “Lights. Camera. Inaction.”

Manmohan Singh’s personal integrity is unquestionable. Mostly because
he never attends question hour.

Q : How do you fit 1000 media people in a hotel? A : 998 in 499 double
rooms. And Barkha & Sanghvi in the lobby.

Why does phone-tapping make India a banana republic? Isn’t tapioca
republic better?

December

TIME had a difficult choice for Person of the Year. Assange, who
attacked governments’ privacy. Or Zuckerberg, who went after people’s.

Sarkozy is a VIP Frenchie, right?

Many bills were passed in the parliament session. Travel bills, food bills, etc.

Obama, Sarkozy, Jiabao & now Medvedev. If India can’t get to the
Security Council, at least the Security Council is coming to India.

Skill

A giant ship engine failed. The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure but how to fix the engine.


Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a young. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom.

Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed!

A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars.

"What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!"

So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill."


The man sent a bill that read:


Tapping with a hammer...... ......... ........ $ 2.00
Knowing where to tap.......... ......... ...... $ 9, 998.00

Effort is important, but knowing where to make an effort makes all the difference!
