When dream comes true

I had a dream in my 80s to see Amitabh live performing. That dream comes true when we went to see "The Unforgettable Show" at Oakland Arena. I checked one check box from my Goal List. But this is more than check box. We saw Amitabh and all the actors with the distance of feet, which I did not expect. It was mind blowing experience. It really make diffrence what you see live and what you see on TV. Its most fun event that I remember.



When you see and know how Amitabh Bachchan keep in contact with his fans through blog, I was truely amazed. I saw his blog for this show at Oakland Arena. I express my openion in his blog, I wrote following as a comment in his blog (click the above link and see the comment#362. )


"It was my dream since 80s to see the Amitabh performing in real and that is the reason we went to the Show in Oakland Arena. Let me tell you. It was fabulous. This if the first time ever my money worth something. Absolutely amazing. Click here if anyone want to see the glymps of the show. The Amitabh Dialouge of Deewar was outstanding as usual. Abi has a lot of energy just like Amitabh had in 70s. He is stylish just like his dad. We were on the left of the stage near stage and Abi is absolutely with us in dancing he loves us. Madhuri/Preeti was great too. Its glad to see Jaya there but it would be awesome if she would in “Shaba Shaba ” dance. I think she can do that. I also like her vision on Go Green. "





Bang. Next day, he mention this comment in his blog, check this blog

and he wrote this


"Many responses talk of the emotion connected to the show, the efforts made to travel to the venue from distances not traversed normally. They talk of being moved to tears to see us in person and to be fulfilling long-standing dreams. It is to us too equally emotional. We shed tears of joy at seeing your appreciation. It may not look very evident but I can tell you that inside all of us there are similarities."


It is true pleasure to see that kind of person on stage and this is something Unforgettable.

You won sir.

Dr. Pausch, 47, who turned the lecture into a book, said that no one would have been interested in his words of wisdom were he not a man in his 40s with a terminal illness.

Fannie/Freddie in trouble

Bear Stern, 85 year old company, does not exists any more. Fed shovels in the hand of JP Morgan. Now it time for Fannie and Freddie going out of business or rescued by the US Government/tax payer.

Both the companies are insolvent and they badly need cash as Housing Foreclosure increases and at all time high.

If government is undertaking this company then there is no or very low value for the share holder. They already have problem raising the money. They have to give 75basis point higher than the treasury bond. They recently raise 7.5B but they probably need 29B. How the company will operate if they need such kind of money. Both company together has 6 Trillion of loan portfolio. (United States total debt is around 8 Trillion) If price goes down they have to write down significant loss. If US government does not help then they cannot buy the commercial mortgage and hence consumer will not able to get loan which further bring down the housing market.

I don't think that this companies has the future nor US Dollar. Be careful.
