Happenings - War/Football

I full heatedly Agree with the below statement.
There are too many cyber idiots from both sides whining about everything.

And then, how could i not mention the frantic display by Arsenal and Liverpool last night. After staying up all night to watch the game i conveniently slept in front of the tele until i was awoken by a 56th minute strike By Torres to give Liverpool a 2-1 lead. I was upset. If i was in North London i would probably end up being a part of the Gooners and unleash mayhem and reckless passion on unsuspecting opposition fans.

But here i am, relegated to a lonely couch in Sri Lanka watching the boys do us proud. Arshavin struck back with a wonder strike 2-2. Arsenal 2, Arshavin2.

3-2 Arsenal. Hatrick for Arshavin!! by Golly i love this game.....

And then the Spanish magician always has to bring his class to the game and make it 3-3. Glory to Torres of Liverpool.

90th Minute. Classic Arsenal counter attack and the Galloping 20 year old Walcott unleashes a deft touch, pass onto the fiery Arshavin. With a left foot strike that would have made the thai kick boxing champ proud Arshavin made it 4-3 to Arsenal with only injury time to play. 4 to Arshavin!!!

I was already swearing into the silent night Air about how you merseyside fuckers are no good and the Golden generation of the gooners coming about when that crazy Jew, Brilliant footballer of a Israeli Benayoun struck with 2 minutes of injury time to play. I hate Liverpool, but i gotta love Benayoun, fantastic bloke.

4-4

To the doubters of English football, Arshavin, and Arsenal's resolve..... bullocks... absolute bullocks... this is top brass stuff man....

The other Side of Today

The future is to be conquered, tamed and harnessed to serve you in a manner which feeds the interests of destiny and nothing more. The crossroads of time cannot hold back the scent of the pathways of the Gods, ironed out through a wilderness of freedom which can take you to the next level of fulfillment, if only you could forever stay close to that voice which steers you clear of the odor of death.

Only mere mortal cowards languish in the deep waters of indecision. Greater are the decisive men and women of time which chose to daringly dream of a better existence. Whose bloody drenched palms steered the oars of humanity in a new direction providing the power and will of mental might as they steered us with God given direction.

Convictions alone will not get you across the waters, though few would question the power of its influence. But it’s the magical moment where mind, soul and body combine to bring about a physical manifestation of the core being that makes the guardians of creation stand and take account of the wonder of creation itself.

Emotional Creatures

‘’When dealing with people, you are not dealing with creatures of Logic but creatures of emotion’’ – Dale Carnegie

‘’People will always forget what you did for them, but they will never forget how you made them feel’’ – Dion Gomez

The clear objective as a leader of men should then be to ‘move’ the hearts of people. I.e. tap into the emotional creature within them as opposed to using arguments of logic to stir people into action.

This is a fundamental management or leadership lesson it seems as history tells us just how important this fact is. The late President Premadasa for all the criticism leveled at him moved the hearts of the masses by giving them housing through the Gam Udawa housing scheme. Not once during the past 5 year period have I seen a common man worship President Chandrika in a similar manner, in my mind she was a good leader, strong, powerful and had the charisma to lead a nation regardless of her faults. But what stands out is the way so many people adore her predecessor.

Parallels can be drawn with the current president. He communicates well with the emotions of the masses whilst his rival seems to lack this ability and thus the support of the people.

Most of us will never run for President or probably not even become the CEO of our company. But it’s a fact of life that you need to be able to tug at heart and emotions of people to win their support. Some of the most successful cooperate leaders are blessed with this ability.

For all those guys out there that really don’t bother about women and flattering them, this is a huge mistake. So I’ve learnt, it’s a good practice ground for one thing to be able or bothered to gauge the emotions of the opposite species or anyone for that matter. Taking your mom out for dinner, speaking to the security guard for 1 minute and basically going beyond the expectations of people by showing you care can have a significant impact in terms of the support you get and this is Characteristic of good leaders. Developing emotional intelligence thus is absolute key to success in the corporate world but more importantly in your personal life and relationships.

When I quizzed Mr. Dion Gomez, CEO MAS Intimates sometime back on how you could keep people happy during tough times where you cannot afford to give increments, beautiful infrastructure, benefits etc. his reply was simple.

‘’It does not cost you money to put your arm around a factory worker and ask how they are doing today, this makes all the difference and they will wholeheartedly support you during tough times’’

I Hate This Date

Poya
There's nothing more irritating than realizing that its poya whilst on the way to the beach for a nice cold beer or booze. Worse still, She finally says ''Oki lets hang out'', how about catching a movie??.... and it's Poya.

Easter
The foods good, i love it. But the thought of spending an afternoon with relations that are bordering being serious alcoholics and equally shallow can take its toll on me. Don't really like Easter for this reason, my lack of choice in the matter of attending these family functions are the root cause I've realized.

Sunday
It just reminds me that tomorrow happens to be Monday. How bad can it get.

Valentines Day
I mean screw the fact that I'm single, don't really give a rats arse about any of it. But when you have to play Secret Valentine at office, that's when it irritates you. The fact is that last year i got 'Upul' a 40 year old married man with 3 kids and this makes it that much more irritating. Confession time, this is what i did. I got a crap 100 rupee chocolate from this tasteless woman, and i eased into the strategy of craftily passing the same chocolate to upul. But then, i realized.... Upul will never know if i didn't give him anything coz its secret Valentine.... hey! I'm the victim here, at least upul got laid that day... i think...

St Patricks Day
You turn on the TV and there's drunken Irish men having a ball of a time whilst you are stuck to eating kottu rotty in front of the TV watching them. in Ur stupor some curry falls on your clean white shirt which you were too lazy to take off coz u were hungry FOR KOTTU on ST PATRICKS DAY!

Bank Holidays
We all know that bankers are irritating blood sucking bastards. But to have them mock you at the fact that your stuck at work running pivot charts while they are hanging out by a pool with a long island is is is is...... Blood sucking bastards!

That's not bad, after trying hard that's all the negativity i could muster! that should mean that i have a hell of a time the rest of the time which is about 95% it seems. Not bad!

I hereby Tag the whackster, Mathawadaa, Jerry, and anybody else's blog i will be reading today! Get the negativity out dude.....

Let it Be!

This impoverished state of mind can’t seem to find the way of this random thing that aren’t quite happening to me but I believe in this destiny of another world. Make believe, trapping things from within the richness and goodness of the surrounding stratosphere impeding upon the evil of the universe.

This is the story of Quentin Harry. The Lazy bastard can’t seem to find a hole to creep into and yet he can find plenty of milkshake to drink, sometimes I wonder if he’s mad but then he justifies his position on the whole milkshake scenario as if to make me look like a demented moron. The war of milkshakes shall be doused in the banana plains with flying banana milkshakes one might assume, yet it is in the unsuspecting toilet pits of Damascus that one can truly find peace and liberty not the banana plains surely?

Why not? Quizzed poor Quentin’s half brother who seems to suffer from insomnia and a bite from a rabid goat while he was leisurely taking a Saturday afternoon crap down Kelani River!

It just goes to show that we are but one, abiding in the same shittyness that makes our existence that much more special? Ever wondered the destiny of that poor piece of shit? No not Quentin man, im talking about the piece of shit that his half brother let rip on the kelani. Drifting into oblivion with nothing to impede upon it. The wide vast oceans before it, true freedom! Sure down river it may be, but a destiny of the oceans lies before him with the unknown starting back, what a great adventure for one little piece of shit! Yet here I am typing this in office wondering what exactly can I do to feel this way, feeling like shit so I have just proved is not always bad…. Truly freedom can be found in strange places!

The massai might have it good eating Zebra all day, but do you want to be running around with pointy sticks and shouting loo loo loo with rings on your lips that threatens to ensure you taste the dirt! I mean for god sakes what’s so fricking exotic about that?? I mean, is it really cool to be free like the Massai living off the land and shit, take a step back and think about it…… how would you feel or what would you say when you take a stroll in the morning no sneakers to protect and you step on a fresh leopard dropping, it squeeshes underneath your foot and the closest river is 6 miles away and the grass is all you got to wipe ur foot on, leaving traces of leopard shit between your toes! So…. Do you want to be part of the Massai?? Oh so you think that’s cool eh? Hermit!

Brings me to the point of Hitler, a man who I think was great. Why great you may wonder after killing all those Jews. Good question. We’ve all fucked something up or someone up at some point. But has anyone fucked up so much in human history! Here’s a man who has done absolutely everybody in someway…. Wow! Crazy bastard but hey, can anyone match that?

Boy scouts piss me off man, what a bunch of pussies trying to be the outdoor types. Please….. you can’t play sports so you pretend to act cool by tying 25 types of knots! Shit that should get you laid someday I guess?

Ahh, all this has been very therapeutic to say the bloody least, was encouraged by the whackster to do this. Well, didn’t quite do it to the same extreme extent where nothing makes sense, something he likes to do on a regular basis. But fuck the boy scouts!!

Trample shit if it makes you happy

Take a bath on the kelani,

And remember nobody knows…. if the Massaii are actually happy with Saggy boobs, so let’s not assume….

Take care and God bless Ameri…. Sri Lanka
