Highlights

This has been a very curious week. Here are two highlight events-

1) Alonso has spoken. He has said that he has an option of moving to Ferrari at the end of this season. Thats classic Alonso for you! Spoken like a true loser. Now that he knows that he stands no chance at all to win Championship with Renault, he has made another of his old tricks and increased speculations at the start of the season itself. Though both the Ferrari drivers are under contract till 2010, you never know. But just imagine what that would do to Ferrari followers. It will be a nightmare come true. I don’t think there are many people out there who support Ferrari as well as Alonso at the same time. I will be caught in a practically unsolvable dilemma. Ferrari should really consider this aspect of the move.

2) Obnoxious News Channels. Thats what they are. Remember little Prince?? The kid who was trapped in an open bore well gave a hot topic to the everHungry media. A déjà vu. A girl named ‘Vandana’ was the victim. The innocent thing had no idea what was going on. No offense meant, but don’t you think that it was hyped just too much? Sure it was a significant news, but wasn’t there anything else happening in and around the world that was remotely important? ( I had to wait for half an hour to get the score!) What was even more angering was the way they presented the news. Hyper-excited tones, mindless descriptions, and above all pathetic animations.

The reporter was practically dancing around the image behind trying to explain the simple logic of the rescue operation. The whole thing was ridiculous.
