Pun riot
Newspapers are becoming more fun to read, especially during these elections. The headlines are innovative, puns are amusing and the graphics that go along with the stories are simply rib tickling, if not satirical. Consider these one liners used to describe IT savvy Chandababu's rout in Andhra Pradesh.
Key Rajiv man siezes Ctrl, Deletes TDP, set to be Alt CM and Reboot Andhra. (Times of India)
Hindustan Times is not far behind, and comes up with this:
System failure: Cyber CM logged out. This was accompanied by a cartoon graphic showing Naidu tapping furiouisly at the keyboard with the screen displaying a message: Access denied. Rediff.com had this: Ctrl+Alt+Del for Chandrababu Naidu
But the most accurate headline appeared in the New York Times that read: Indians voters turn cold shoulder to high technology.
I will keep scanning for more bytes like these. Let me shutdown for the moment. END.
