Hi People, Thinshark’s been pretty much silent of late, the reason being KD’s flown overseas. AHAK’s gone back home, he’ll be coming back but he’ll be leaving for good then. Both of them however had a pretty common reason for not being active. For once however I have a reason, a perfectly genuine reason for being inactive. Legend has it that I broke my right hand, how that happened is a mystery of sorts but yep I was in a cast for better part of Feb. and march and then in April I fell into league with AHAK and KD. I simply got busy, courtesy my one-month absence from the workplace. Luckily they decided to give thinshark a bit of voice and have come back into action.

Yep, Komodo was pretty much right in expressing my angst in his words. The last few days the media were in some sort of frenzy. My hands itched for want of writing on India’s dismal performance in the WC (not literal) (for purists it’s the World Cup). But then GAG did a pretty decent job covering it on the fiteklub. Me and GAG were constantly in touch during each and every match played, me at home and him in the land far east. But yeah I reached one conclusion. Match Fixing is NON EXISTENT in cricket. How else would you explain India’s elimination in the first round itself? If they wanted to make the cup a commercial success India had to be there upto the Semi’s at least. Isn’t it? So guys, it’s a clean game, go ahead and watch it.

The media at it again and the last few days have been full of Abhi Ash (the bearded prince and the plastic maiden). As GAG mentioned or someone did I guess they married a banyan and a peepal tree to remove their manglik doshas and things like that. The less said about the matter the better so I’ll leave it at that.

Thinshark is more about the things that happening around us but then excuse me if I express my personal angst out here. For the first time in the last so many years Antya’s been had. Betrayed is a better word. Plain simple breach of trust if I may put it. I’ve my own ways of dealing with things like this. These things don’t happen much to me but yeah I am a vindictive person when hurt; I’m not called the Antagonist for nothing. But over the years I’ve learnt to live with a lot of things. Call it spirituality or whatever but I can feel the anger inside me much more controlled. So my being busy was mostly (its an ongoing process still) me trying to come to terms with the feeling of being stabbed in the back. I still haven’t decided what to do next and trust me at the back of my mind I am feeling real lousy. I’ll figure it out somewhere down the line but yeah it hurts and it hurts real bad.

These were the few things happening out there and I know and hope that KD and AHAK would not mind me airing my personal angst on Thinshark but then this is something I had to say someplace. The next write-up, however will be definitely more thinsharkish and more cheerful than this one. And that’s a promise.
