Gold and Tennis

am doing my research on Gold prices/rates behavior during the world economic crisis and the investment opportunities that both investors and traders can avail.

So the last time I was here I talked a bit about my tensions. They keep coming and going so I don't give too much crap about 'em. The thing is once you know that there is someone who will always listen to you, no matter how stupid your propositions and thoughts are, and no matter how dumb your ideas are, you can make through it. Not that I am implying that it is impossible to live through the everyday tensions without someone to listen to, will power comes in. But for those who have a lack of it, it helps. Not mentioning anyone in particular though, just some thoughts.

So the other day I had another one of those days when I take the car out in a good mood and something bad enough happens to eff up the mood. I was driving around the round-about and the excise department had its mobile-vans parked there. You'd think they won't stop you to check and do their job, letting you go as just another random guy/car as it happens everytime. But they did stop me, and turns out that my forefathers haven't paid the duty on this car for the last 4 years, that's around Rs. 4,500 !! So all I could do was to leave the car registration with 'em and return back home to get my dad and listen to a long lecture of how he has been taking care of the car and nothing happens under his control of the car and so on and so forth... Not t mention the usual elephants!

So he paid-up and i dropped him back home. Done, back to enjoying the drive, what else could happen, right!? That is rhetorical, and as one can guess, WRONG!

Bottom line, I got fined for driving without a driver's license (my fault, I totally accept, but had it had to happen the day I want to drive!!? gimme a break will ya... Lord! ). Nothing bad happened after that, but didn't have to, it had been enough already.

So I got an angry, gives-no-crap, research supervisor - who couldn't live if it wasn't only for the word crap itself. People knowing him know who I am talking about

Also, tennis watching has been fun lately. Not to mention the boredom of Nadal deciding to lay-off the Wimbledon and not defending his title... The world would have loved another dream final between the two.

Will continue...
