Silence of the underworld

Let's get this done with
"So what do we do now?", Vimal asked. He looked positively harassed.
And then we were done with it.

There
It could be anywhere. But it is not here. That's the key. Here is bad. Not here is good.
There.
Its not really inhabited, There.
Expect if you consider wild iguanas, crabs and snails or even the odd deer habitation. There is no incessant chatter there. Expect if you consider the constant rustle of leaves and twigs in the wind chatter. There is no hate and ill-will there. Expect if you think the ant-eater has a deep rooted hatred for the ants. There are no crazies there. The woodpecker that works on the timber outside goes occasionally berserk but thats pretty much it. They dont judge you there. Live and let live. Die and let die. Simple really.
They've got no rules There. Unlike here. They dont want you to smile and laugh or get angry just because the society demands it from you. They have no society.
There is a long way away. There is hard to get to.
But, is there even a There?

5 reasons why I look forward to the 2010 F1 season...
5. Tank full of fuel....
While i am skeptical about what the no re-fuelling rule would do to race starts, it is definitely a game changer and while the teams try and adapt to it, we will see variability in performance, race starts, strategies which will shuffle up the leaders and create exciting races.
At least Ferrari wouldnt have to worry about this...
4. The cars look so damn deadly....
I am not a big fan of the shark fins but I have to admit the cars this season look other worldly and i mean in a good way. I'll let the pictures talk...
F1 without schumi is like having a full meals without sambhar. Love him, hate him, support him, loathe him, hysterically scream for him, hysterically scream against him but F1 without him frankly feels a little bland. What would we do without seeing him do this...
2. Imagine a corner....
According to me, there are only 3 world champions in the current grid (what more in god's name does Button have to do, you ask?) and that is Alonso, Hamilton and of course, Schumi. But, by god! what quality! If ever there were 3 ruthless, super-talented, no-holds-barred racers at different stages of their careers wanting as much as ever, if not more, to beat each other and prove a point, it is here.
With the history these three guys have with each other (agree, not much between Hamilton and Schumi), imagine them fighting for a first corner and predict an outcome at your own peril....
1. Alonso in a Ferrari...and is probably going to win it....
I'd dig the season if nothing else happens but more and more of this...
0. To conclude...
