Fate is cruel. Let me elucidate…
Yesterday:
I booked my Bangalore- Trivandrum ticket. While doing this I found out that on some days Deccan tickets were going for 9K while the Kingfisher ones were 6K. I never thought i would live to see that day.
Today:
I was searching for information on the Sampras-Federer: Clash of the Times matchup when i chanced upon this:
Yes. Seputura is playing in India and if you look closely, it says Saturday 03rd Nov, Bangalore. Now guess when i booked my Trivandrum ticket for - 02nd Nov.
Ah well, Sepultura is playing at the Palace Grounds and while you go buy the tickets online at the ticktpro site, i’ll go ratamahatta myself 
well … ur trip home better be good

I know…those Deccan rates are weird.. in fact all rates are weird…
The other day I booked tickets to Delhi only to realise much later that I was flying Jet Airways.
Now you’d ask how could I book a flight without knowing what airline it is, well that’s a different issue, I can do a lot of weird things, but in my defense, I booked via Yatra.com and the rates they gave me was same as Spice Jet or other ‘No frills’ fare.. My round trip cost came to a little less than 8K. Now isn’t that strange.. I thought Jet airways one way trip cost comes around 7-8K

I am going home tonight, and while returning I am flying Kingfisher for the simple reason it is cheaper then Deccan
Dude are you going to Malaysia to see the match?

Lucky fella, aren’t you? We call it PCP. Papi chellunnadam pathalam.
You can have a career in betting. If you bet on a horse, it’s sure to lose. But if you decide NOT to bet on a particular horse… You get the idea. You can make your friends rich, and then live off them.

Khushboo,
i was indeed wallowing in pity!
Abbulu, i am of course going to see Sepultura! living out my metalerialistic passions
Jasmine, i am sure it was 6K for only one way. I was shocked and thats why i mentioned it here… must have seen an outlier though.
Tys, hihi.. i cancelled the ticket and booked train tickets for another day instead! train is metal too eh
Ziah, on the contrary i’ve been rather lucky for the most part of this year! Thanks for sympathizing though.
Sam, Woohoo!! YaY!! You watched? Maybe you were the good charm

Lol…
Now that sure does feels good- taking away the credit for somebody else’s hardwork by merely watching a game!!

Sepultura growls too much to my liking actually. But then, they are better than Lamb of God anyday.
What about RHCP coming to Bangalore and all that?

Sam, game! i know this is very contentious but i would call F1 a sport
Spunky, yea.. but then i don’t get any of the lyrics so growling or no growling is almost the same. RHCP? fervent googling resulted in dissapointment
