Where is god?
Why do you need faith to believe?Faith is

coincidence and the decisions you make daily.I
find it ridiculous to claim anything in the name
of god."Thank god I woke up before I burned alive
in my house fire"...Thank your fire alarm...

Cricinfo - Mixed signals
Alarming - BCCI has proved boneless. Should
have infused a completely new team, young blood,
even if they fail to achieve, should be given
chances and a lesson to seniors. The indian fans
are in for a shock in the years to come. Certainly
there is a link between the earnings, else why
the stutter? Disgusting.

Sony alarm clock plays spy
The "Dream Machine" as secret agent? Sony
may need to expand into new areas as some of its
core businesses continue to suffer (read: iPod),
but the spying game hardly seems like a natural

like this one, other than for the sheer novelty
of it.

make you will feel a gentle vibration. This would
also work for deaf people.
