Robin Hood

"Rise and rise again, until lambs become lions."


Was sitting at home today recuperating after yesterdays binge drinking with big plans of calling it an early night when a so called friend in need took the liberty of asking me for a bit of my company and being the magnanimous soul I am,I decided to bless her with some.
What do we do...drive all the way to Ambience Mall n decide to see Robin Hood(not the prince of thieves)but a more real version than a romanticised Kevin Costener saga.
Introspecting rather than judging,i leave that to the critics,it was a movie worth a watch basically stressing on how moments make a man and lead to occurences n events.
Made on the lines of Braveheart,it kind off got me thinking as to the nature of men...jealousies...leadership...honesty...commitment...loyalties...n lack of them!!!



"If its illegal for a man to fend for himself, how can he be a man of his own right?"

A little barbaric and carnivorous but it took me back to memories of school!!!
I guess every lion wants to rule the jungle and often fights other prides to show his supremacy!!!
I was in class 12D(DPS) n rather notorious for being a lady's man and someone who never said no to a brawl!! Had this one particular feline who had her paws and green eyes on me,and though this lion had his pride full the idea of another was appeasing.
Now there was this other lion(as luck would have it his name even ended with a SINGH)who had feelings for this cat and rather jealous of what she had for me.
Anyhows,lets get real,this man would always be talking about me and bragging as to how he was a black belt and could take me on...this girl came upto me one break time and said that he would keep doing this and she dint like it...so i told her to tell him that he could have a fight anytime he wanted...duh...I had just fractured my knuckles cause i socked someone...n can you believe it....nothing happened to him!!!

Anyhow i guess it was a very planned move,still trying to figure out if it was on her part,but ten minutes later i get an envoy saying that the fight had been scheduled for the recess in the basket ball courts!!!!!
I was 6 ft 3 in tall,still am,n thought my one hand was enough to take him on...and i had just watched mr travolta in "grease" n nothing mattered besides being cool......
recess time it was!!!!
I quickly rounded up all my aides and started planning as how to oust the sherrif of nottingham!!!
by the way our gang in school was called the SAINTS...god knows why???
two of my best friends,venky and jerry with me and a bunch of followers we headed for the basket ball court only to find the whole school there and my girlfriend standing and addressing everyone!!! my school had 7000 students and when i say everyone was there i mean it...god knows how!!!!!
Monica walked upto me and took me aside and said that she had told everyone that i had an injured hand so the fight was postponed(thank god) but then the envoy who had come to ask me for the fight walked up and called me chicken n that was it..hand or no hand i had to whip this guys ass!!!! Monica dint seem to find it a good idea!!!

N i got to know why...as i walked the crowd made way for me...I might as well have been Moses and in the middle I see this big burly as tall as me sardar standing and practicing his taekwando...WHAT HAD I GOT MYSELF INTO???
WE SHOOK HANDS..mind you my left cause the right was in plaster and the battle begun.
Both of us circling...looking for an oppurtunity...lady marion loxly n friar tuck standing and crying...lil john ebbing me on..the sherrif had to be beaten!!!
i closed my eyes and let my left arm swing...it got him flat in the face...no effect...he swung one...caught me on my nose(its still crooked)n to top it every time he would swing n even when he wouldnt he would make this loud grunt like a pig n that was scarier!! One more from him and it would have been end of fight..but god helped me and i dont know what came into his head(i think it was god and his taekwando lessons)he decided to show off by knocking me out witha kick...I saw it coming and with all i had caught hold of his leg...never to let it go again...what a sight it was...this big fat sardar hopping on one leg with his other one in my hand and screaming to let it go cause it wasnt fair...but all is fair in love and war..n this had both involved so how could i????
one corner had my girl friend crying and the second this feline looking at us dumbstruck..either ways i decided that letting his leg go was not a good idea...i tugged at it and goliath fell...the tremours could have caused a tsunami had we been even 500 miles from the sea...but luckily we werent.
his leg still in my hands,he writhing on the floor..begging me to let go n then venky walked in...my saviour and said end of fight...robin hood had won!!!
well goliath challenged me many times after that but now i had won..i had the option of saying no...i was the officially declared king of the pride and the jungle...the moment the battle got wom my girlfriend suddenly got her leo spirit back and walked up to the other feline and told her to find another lion or she would have her to answer too...and from that day nobody crossed my path in dps!!!!

"Fate has smiled at us at last. I for one will not turn my back on her."

with that in mind...we made the most of our image...and i still do!!!!!
