Chronicles of the Monetarist

Short Story 1
Forgetful,Brilliant and rarely humorous Professor :
"I will tell you all a joke. (a sly grin flashes across face) Why was Adam the first ever accountant?"

(half the class wakes up to this challenge, looks around)

Professor continues :
"Because he was the first one ever to turn a leaf and make an entry"
(grin becomes more wider with guilt)

(3 guys roll with laughter. rest of class goes back to sleep)

Short Story 2
Student : What are the end term portions? Where do we study from? What can we expect?

Forgetful,Brilliant and rarely tactful Professor :

"As usual, carefully follow the class notes. Like Philip Weiss, a character in Vikram Seth’s novel The Golden Gate (“He drinks and he continues drinking/And having drunk, he drinks again”) for the exam “Do read and continue reading/ And having read, just read again."

(evil grin surely flashing across face)

Manchester United 3-0 Liverpool

This is one of the best starts to a week that I could ask for.
Was tensed all week long about the ManU- Pool match.
Rafa had commented earlier in this week that United will be challenged for their title race ( motivational talks ? ). With Liverpool's recent winning run and with the champions league ahead it was all set for a tight match.

That's exactly how it turned out. A very cagey start. But an uncalled for second yellow (red) to gifted the game to United.


From a quick United counter and brisk movement, Rooney who had a superb game (but for the finishing) sent in a lovely cross from the left flank. Brown rose high up in the center ready to head it in with ease. But Brown being Brown he turned his back to the ball and it looked all set for a bad miss. But Reina being Liverpooldian (Bah !!!!....however it is spelled) decided to shoot himself in the foot and he made sure it was an own goal. Once that happened the game was all ours. Albeit late a goal each from Ronaldo and Nani sealed the game.
I never imagined I would ever put up a Wes Brown pic on my blog but nevertheless... Manchester United 3-0 Liverpool

There goes another item to my long list of "dropped it...broke it" !!!!

THE game

The match started years ago
Both teams have had a very good first half.
With one team bringing the heat on late in the first half, it looked fully set for a thriller.
But then came the break...
HALF TIME !!!!
