my 50th b day






i should have made this entry on sunday the 27th itself.....but you see

it was a very funny way i walked into my 50th year....

as cleo wished me first with a lusty lick to my eyes....ayeesha soon followed.
so did others...thileep and family..thiagu....and many mails from forum members of bigfoot,ubuntu,tech republic,neilslade brain guys,edge,hydroxy.

bacardi with thileep for the lunch
very sumptuous briyani from ayeesha...and aunt....
surender was there in the evening.....

then the evening started with my class mates from school...i reached raghu's flat a bit late due to rain...yagnesh,c.swami,m.ravi had called since i was late....it was also due to m.g.basker last minute phone....:-)
then i landed at near 7 p.m..t.n sriram i recognised immediately....missed r.balu completely.the guy had sure put on weight...sankaravadivelu was just the same....both these guys had no children. sriram was superb in rendering two songs"mozhi" and "barathi 's chellamadi"...
brandy "R D " WAS TOPPED UP the fastest...c.swami and aska just loved it....francis too...
bacardi went c.swami's way.

i got tipsy...j.swami had arranged for a very tastey veg food ...varieties galore...fruit salad et all......then had to rush off at near 11 pm...to catch the train...which i missed eventually.

why there was no photos...i dont know....i recorded t.n.s song "chellamadi"on my mobile....it has come out well!!!

thank you all....:-))

my 6th half marathon ...3 rd on ECR


yesterday i finished my 6th half marathon.....i did with my group...chennai runners...it was the 7th ECR RUN....the group who had a strength of nearly 100 runners assembled at the start point near a resort on the ECR road a mere 5oo meter before the MGM resorts.
i was at the dimensions at 3.50 am...did a small stretch routine....was a bit high strung about emptying my colons clean....i joined narayan in his car along with madavan and an another arse.

reached the resort in good time....narayanan voluteeren for the reflective stickers...i took mine and headed fr the toilet for a last cleanup.

we started in a staggard manner...30k guys went at 5 am ...20k at 5.10....and 15k at 5.20 and 10k and the rest at 5.30 am...
the day was warm.....
i was feeling good till 8 k....then my shorts was rubbing my inside of my legs for a while....i slowed and continued till 10k hari and his friend were returning....hari saw me slowing and pepped me up saying the water spot is 500 mts ahead...i reached and this is where shahid gave me a paket of power gel green apple flavour...i went at it in one go as shahid advised i took the gel and washed it down with water... karthick and vidyuth were offering drinks at this junture to all the runners.....ramani was also there...we joked about zooming to the other end back....i asked shahid when will the power jel hit me....vidyut in his own style said"it is a mellow hit" meaning a la bacardi style....but continued to say"i took this in singapore marathon and it dehydrated me...."shahid said then u probably took it straight down from the pkt....the directions are to take the gel first and wash it down yr throat with a few gulps of water.....any way we all had a good laugh...
me and ramani started back slowly....i expected it will improve my legs stiffness in 10 mints...but i didnt get it....ramani went ahead ....soon after the reaching the next water spot....shahid crossed me again...and asked me how did i feel....i said i am feeling ok...but only after 2k i felt the difference...and said to shahid "i may need 4 gel packs to do a half marathon"....he said "no...you took it after u were drained...but it gives good results if taken before...so u actually need 2 pkts...ok"....thanks shahid....i will remember...i plan to do more runs with the power gels....

the thing was i didnt have stiff legs or muscles...but my shoe gave me probs...so i rested at muttukadu and took off my shoe socks and found blister getting ready (tiger)ramesh's cousin gave me company herethis guy was making his first attempt at 20k he was really down...also his new shoe was a problem....well this blister slowed me further....i rested at muttukadu...shumit was the water man....bless you guys....ramani was already there before me.....well...from muttukadu....walked all the way till the MGM and ran from there to finish at a time of 2.hrs and 40 mints.....my second worst timing

ram finished his 30k at around the same time.....narayanan around came 20 mints after ram...k.p came later

soon others came in from the 20k and 30k group......we had a ok break fast....missed the omlettes...coffee and tea were not inspiring.....i had good ice massage for my legs by myself....then had a shower changed....and hari and his friend dropped me back at dimensions..we shared a lot of jokes on the way back...how i am having a great fight with my "alarm"....etc..... frm there i took my bike back to home at 11.45....

thileep came home with his brother in law at 2.30 p.m...had a large bacari lemon at home which he had brought....and a few beers at cheers bar....had briyani at buhari and i was dropped at home

slept at around 5 p.m...got up at 12 midnight...had a cold tomato rice...and back to bed....

gondolfthewhite

i have been in this forum for quite some time.....

www.neilslade.com/forum

i am there as gondolfthewhite.....


well better late than never .........AFTER YEARS OF MY PRACTICE ON UNRAVELING MIND...USING ASTRAL PROJECTION AS A MAIN TOOL TO UNDERSTAND THE NATURE OF HUMAN MIND......EXCLUSIVELY USING A METAPHYSICAL TEQNIQUE(META= LARGE,PHYSICAL=CONSCIENCE).......,i try to answer......

to be courageous is the foremost requirement to even acknowledge the below concepts.


1.mind denies

2.it is profound

3.it loves deception

4.it loves continuity

5.it fights like a tiger when confronted

6.it provides all the necessary tools to safe gaurd a condition of FEAR

7.it tries a default doorway to lead any one away from a state of CLARITY

8.it harbours all the known sets of perceivables and notions to streer clear of one to posses POWER

9.every individual who likes to do anything to go beyond has to eventually break the mind and reassemble it.....this unfortunately happens only on the nature of sheer force and extreme fear and even near death.....

10.freedom is the enemy of mind

11.communication is mind's subltle enemy and friend all at the same moment.

12.mind has no comparison to any other

13.by constantly denying power....it keeps one in a state of impotency

14.it never allows the love's granduer to see the daylight for long.....since love perceives the larger picture faster than mind.


15.mind derives pleasure in beleiving the non beleivable.

desktop

desk top is back in action....whew.....it was getting to really
worry.....i didnt want to upgrade.....and the linux fedora......what a pain....my dual boot was so
possesive it wouldnt let the other work.....any way....i have my pilates files saved and shifted to my other mobile unit....

even then...i still need my audio drivers to be updated......may be by monday ..if all goes well

cleo...goggles...rusty


























cleo....a 8 year old spaniel....the leader of the pack.....my daughter chose her from a abondoned dog rescue home....she was just 7 months old then scared of fire crackers sound...but tolet trained !!!.....all she did was look at my daughter and stay with her when she asked this little one..."will you come with me?"....cleo just stayed next to my daughter....and was duly carried in my kids lap all the way home.....


googles....1 year old indian native breed called "kanni"....oh she is a hand full...cleo is very upset that she never obeys 100% all the time....so growls and gruffs and nips are there.....the word "cleo" sends googles to a quite corner always..goggles is typically brave inside the home....but tails tucked when out on a walk with the pack.

rusty...1 year old indian breed called "sippi parai"...he is cool cat...very dignified...and always playing chasing games with goggles after meals.....has an eye thats always looks as if there is mascara on the eye lashes.....loves apples and mangoes!!!

first this has to be said.....when i brought these little devils in a paper bags (they were 3 weeks old) from rajapalayam...then to dindugal...and from there in train to chennai in a small wooden crate...i told the TTE(travelling ticket examiner) i was carrying a box of tomatoes.....pretty soon these devils pushed open the crate's loose plank /paper and kept peering all thru the night.....in fact they were given a dose of tranquilizer tabs in milk before the journey.....hhhmmmmm that had no effects at all...!!!

i have a bunch of photos and videos of them...i will put them up soon....

euro '08

torres did a stretch and flip that made me think immediately....ok its over....i switched of the tv in another 3-4 minutes and went to bed.....

the morning papers confirmed me.....
