Headlines : 14th June, Wednesday

Its back to being hot today. In fact, people were sweating like Amitabh Bachan trying to count all the Income Tax notices served at him.

Thats right. The Big B has been served more than 37 IT notices so far for failing to file his tax returns properly. 37 notices !!!! Even Chota Shakeel has been served fewer notices by the IT Dept.

How fraudulent is Amitabh Bachan to have so many notices sent to him? At this rate he might soon end up in jail. How ironic would it be if he finds himself on the receiving end of the words - “Are you sure? Lock kiya jaaye? "

Speaking of taxes, it seems the Underworld dons in Bombay are now targeting and threatening rich men in the city to collect some unofficial " taxes"from them. Hey, its good to know that Azhar and Jadeja have found an alternate career path after cricket.

The stock market. Did you even suspect that Naxals and other illegal groups may be investing in the stock market? Its highly probable they are. I just hope they take it easy when the market crashes, you know.........." What? Infosys is down 75 points? What the hell........get me my gun.......whereis this Nandan Nilekani guy? "

Lalu Prasad Yadav is now seeking permission with authorities for a foreign trip that includes Germany, UK, Italy and France. Good for him. As a bonus,the fact that he can hardly speak two words in English will not be a factor in 3 out of the 4 countries.

Did you hear this? Saurav Ganguly's prized gold chain was stolen yesterday. It seems it was his lucky chain that Saurav always kissed after scoring a hundred in a match. I guess he last kissed the chain in2001...........

Item girl Rakhi Sawant has filed a court case against singer Mika forforcibly biting her on the lips. In his defense, Mika says - " If Simbu does it to Nayantara, its no big deal. Why target me alone?"Good point.

President Bush made a surprise visit to Iraq yesterday. Actually, he was supposed to fly to China but they had to make a emergency landing at Iraq.At $73 a barrel, the US govt. couldn't afford filling fuel all the way to China.

At long last, the Taliban have named the 20th and last hijacker involved inthe 9/11 attacks. His name is Turki bin Fheid al-Muteiri Fawaz al-Nashmi.Wow.......his mother apparently chose to include the last names of ALL his fathers in his name. No wonder, it’s slightly longish :-)

The first hurricane of the season, Hurricane Alberto is heading towards Florida. It is expected to cause widespread destruction, loss of human lives and could be a big headache for President Bush...........basically its not that different to Dick Cheney, you might say.

Something surprising. Paris Hilton has actually said that she loves being single. It’s the best feeling she says. On the downside, she confesses that lying naked and handcuffed to ones bed is not that much fun when you are alone.

with all the IT papers swirling around him, wonder if the big B will be phoning a friend to help him out? let's ask amar singh and anil ambani. ooopps...wait...big b's bhabhiji has also been asked to explain her assets (thankfully not her husband's) of hte past 6 yrs. amar singh ki pareshaaniya dugni ho gayi! just like his twin babies!
The Govt. at the Centre is acting in a really vindictive manner. And its amply clear at whose insistence these things are being done.

What people of India have not yet realised is the 'actual' chain of people who are behind this. What comes to my mind right now is this:
SRK (since he is miffed at AB because of Abhi's success) tells Priyanka Gandhi (remember they're 'close' now-a-days as Priyanka & Robert had visited SRK recently). Priyanka in turn tells her mom Sonia, who 'commands' Manmohan Singh, who 'requests' Chidambaram, and this guy has no choice but to pull the plug.

So the chain is pretty simple, as well as probable:
SRK-Priyanka-Sonia-Manmohan-Chidambaram-IT-Dept.

Shame on these guys....

But don't worry Bachchanji, a total of at least one BILLION people are right behind you! We support you whole-heartedly and condemn this unnecessary harassment by the government.
