Security Smecurity Hai Rabba

The Airport Authority of India is wasting its time by subjecting the passengers to security. Instead they should check in the passengers at Pune and have them travel by road to Sahar.

The road condition will make sure all explosives will explode in transit, they will use the same amount of time (3.5 hrs before check in = driving time it took from home to Sahar yesterday) and save a whole bunch in security personnel salaries.

If any miscreant has even an iota of hesitation about his mission, he's bound to give up even before he reaches Vashi.

Ljub Job

Imagine there is a game followed by close to a billion people in the world. In some form or other, they have either played it or kept themselves informed about the game. The top stars are therefore naturally considered demi - gods.

Now imagine, in such a sport, if someone is ranked 3rd in the world, how famous he would be? He should have cult status, with a bunch of groupies and a complete entourage. No need to carry identification to tournaments, no scheduling on side courts, no worrying about having to deal with ignorant people who have no clue who you are.

Right?

Not if the two guys ahead of you are Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.
