WWE RAW hits 1000 episodes












On July 23, 2012,  WWE Raw made its 1000th episode. Now WWF as I recall was a favorite must see show in my household since I was a kid. I remember every Fridays during lunch time, my dad would get the latest WWE taping which was actually about 1-2 weeks old, since in those days there wasn't any digital electronic transfers or live broadcast. But yeah since Fridays was the weekend, the afternoon lunch was served by watching WWE on TV. Even before RAW and Smackdown were created. It was kinda nostalgic when I saw the opening video presentation for the 1000th episode.


I clearly remember me and my younger bro used to wrestle after watching the show which kinda gave us an adrenaline kick. We truly enjoyed watching it long after we realized it was all fake. But still continue to be avid fans. Sadly wrestling superstars are all that good these days. I guess the best superstars were probably in "my time".  


I saw when Rocky Maivia had his first match in WWE and then transformed into The Rock. Bret The HitMan Hart-Stone Cold Steve Austin Rivalry, the formation of DX, Death of Owen Hart, Sultry Sable and Manly Chyna. Lotta good memories enticed with wresting. I guess the presence and the attitude the wrestling superstars carried was kinda awesome for guys like me growin up and see how they would give a good fight tagged with a nice dramatic story line.


I was and will always be a WWE fan...if you smell what the Stan is cookin! :)


Stan out

Life Sucks

Well, its been a while since I last posted here. Sadly coz there isnt really anything much to write about. Overall life does suck living in a country that is not what you would expect it to be. So like most of the other immigrants who have come here - just follow the one golden rule - Shut Up, Suck up, earn and save your money!  At times you really tend to ponder and think is this really what I thought I'd be doing at this very moment? I mean for those who have a family do know how to be content with themselves by focusing on their family needs and living a simple life by getting into the groove that whatever this place has got to offer.

Surrounded by sand all over, super fuckin hot climate that doesnt make you wanna go out and stay indoors only. The television can be your best companion to update you on current affairs around the globe and keep you entertained for as long as you can be. Seriously for a place like this, a television set should be made mandatory for everyone or else one could be just bored to death. Im not saying there arent any fun activities...but dressing up your best, gelling up your hair and getting well groomed not to hit to club but a shopping mall to kill time is one of the worst things to do. Yeah Shopping malls are the only cool hang outs, coz what you can do is just window shop, and if the price is just right then you end up carrying a shopping bag, eat at a nice food joint and sip some nice mocktails and pretend you are living the high life. In general ....Life totally sucks especially for the single souls here.



There ought ta be more to this.... Stan out! :$
