When the WC schedule came, there were widespread speculations that the schedule is rigged, given the dates for Super 8 matches and how the 1st and 2nd places in various pools will fall out.
Then, Pakistan got eliminated. At this point, the popular opinion was India will not be eliminated given the impact it will have on the economics of WC, if that should happen.
And then India got eliminated. So what now?
ICC rigged it to eliminate India just to dis-prove the previous 2 (conspiracy) theories. Somehow, we believe in coincidences more than in randomness.
Pakistan getting eliminated was randomness. India getting eliminated was more than a coincidence.
Again, that's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.
When Brian Fantana talks about his new cologne, "Sex Panther by Odeon", that's what he says in the highly underrated "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy". And now read this:
"Those who napped for about half an hour at least three times weekly had a 37 percent lower risk of dying from heart attacks or other heart problems than those who did not nap."

Got this as an e-mail forward
I don't know the source!
1975 Jan 1
It is about five in the morning. Father (I am not bothering with names)woke up with a start. Many years had passed since he had founded the orphanage.
He had named it "X-Orphanage", a rather funny name. But looking back ,everything about his life seemed funny now. Hearing some noise outside, Father decided to have a look.
A child lay there in front of the orphanage. It was a girl. Seeing her abandoned like this in the cold morning ,Father felt a sense of anger for the the merciless being who had thrown her away like this. He took her in his arms. He would raise her like his own child.
17 Years Later
The girl has grown up now. She is now staying in a hostel. She meets a man and falls in love with him. She gets pregnant. The man disappears.
She is thrown out of the Hostel.
Father comes and takes her back to the orphanage. She gives birth to a girl but the baby is mysteriously stolen. Unable to bear all this, the Father commits suicide.
Due to some problems concerning the delivery, the girl went to see a Doctor. The doctor having examined her ,said with a sad expression on his face, "Adrenalo Sytosis, a serious case of hormone imbalance". An operation was performed in which the doctor had to change the sex of the patient.
The girl was now transformed to a man.
The man was very depressed because he had lost his child, the father had committed suicide, his lover had betrayed him , he had to change sex and so on. He eventually took to drinking.
One day he saw that a new bar had opened in his locality. The name of the bar was 'Sangeetha Bar'. He went inside. There he saw a bearded man.
The bearded man told him that he had a Time Machine and that he could take it. He accepted the gift from the bearded man. He decided to go to the past (to the year 1992)and started the Time Machine.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1992
The man arrives with the Time Machine in the year 1992.There he meets a girl (the same girl who has now become the man) and falls in love with her.
The girl gets pregnant. The man, unwilling to marry her ,leaves the town. He goes to another city, earns some money and come backs to the city where the girl lives. He wants to conceal his identity ,so he has grown a beard.
He starts a bar named 'Sangeetha Bar'. When he was sitting in the bar, a man comes (the same man who was earlier the girl). He gives the Time machine to the man. The man starts the Time Machine and goes to the past.
Suddenly a man wearing a mask comes to the bar. He points a gun at the bearded man .He says that he has a Time Machine and he will take the bearded man to the past. Taking the bearded man with him, the masked man starts the Time Machine.
When they reach the past, the masked man gives the Time Machine to the bearded man and runs away. The bearded man finds himself in front of X-Orphanage. He goes inside and finds a woman (the same woman who later becomes the man) lying there with her new born baby. It is a girl. He takes the girl and starts the Time Machine to go to the past (to the year 1975).
1975 Jan 1
The bearded man arrives with the girl. He leaves her in front of X-Orphanage. He joins a college, studies hard and becomes a doctor. One day a woman was brought to the hospital. He examines her and finds that it is a serious case of 'Adrenalo Sytosis'. He performs an operation in which he changes her sex. He then starts the Time Machine and goes to the past.
He arrives at a time of great famine and suffering Seeing all this, he decides to become a priest and to serve the people. He starts an orphanage and names it 'X-Orphanage'.
One day(1975 Jan 1), he finds a girl lying in front of the orphanage. He takes her and brings her up like his own child.
One day he hears that the girl is pregnant and is thrown out of the hostel. He brings her back to X-Orphanage. She gives birth to a girl.
The Father wants to go to the future. He wears a mask, takes a gun and starts the Time Machine. He reaches in front of 'Sangeetha Bar'. He goes inside and forces the bearded man to travel along with him to the past.
Reaching the past, he feels guilty about forcing the bearded man to come with him. He gives the Time Machine to the bearded man and runs away.
When he returns, he hears the sad news that the baby is stolen. Unable to bear the sorrow ,he commits suicide.
