Rack your Brain

1. If all the nations in the world are in debt (I am not joking. even
US has got debts), where did all the money go? (Weird)

2. When dog food is new and improved tasting, who tests it? (To be
given a thought)

3. If the “black box” flight recorder is never damaged during a plane
crash, why isn’t the whole airplane made out of that stuff? (Very
good thinking)

4. Who copyrighted the copyright symbol? (Who Knows?)

5. Why do people say, “You’ve been working like a dog” when dogs just
sit around all day? (I think they meant something else)

6. Why are the numbers on a calculator and a phone reversed? (God
knows)

7. Do fish ever get thirsty? (Let me ask and tell)

8. What does OK actually mean? (OK, I don’t know)

9. Why do birds not fall out of trees when they sleep? (Tonight I
will stay and watch)

10. If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from
vegetables, then what is baby oil made from? (No comments)

11. What should one call a male ladybird? (No comments)

12. Why is it called a “building” when it is already built? (Strange
isn’t it)

13. Why is it called a TV set when there’s only one? (Very nice)

14. Why do most cars have speedometers that go up to at least 130
when you legally can’t go that fast on any road? (Stupid, break the law)

Did you find it thought provoking? Eh? How dumb. Get back to work.

Fun ‘n’ Frolic

Apparently, the completion of the boards marks the onset of jollity. And so let it be the same way with me too. Though I had enough celebrations on 24th (that being with my cousins), but 28th March 2007, 11 after sunrise, was a moment most congenial, longing in the minds & souls of all 10thies throughout the year, when it is dedicated to our friends.

Alright, so the day that was yesterday was an eventful day. Rambling out till 9 after sunset. All was good, save my high-heeled boots. Shouldn’t have worn them, walking for long with them on, terrible. My legs, feet, fingers, toes – everything was twinging badly. Gathering strength, I managed to connect the laptop, and had fun again. Quite cool now.

And dad brought the Apple iPod (80 gigabytes) from Hong Kong on 26th, my system was ON almost for the entire day, 13 hours to be precise. And after I had the iPod in my hand, I was utterly busy synchronizing it with my PC and adding & downloading stuff, when at 2 before sunrise, quite unevetfully, it died. The power supply failed. Repaired now, with increase in RAM (1 GB now) too.

So another activity to which my leisure time was devoted to was watching movies. Watched Blood Diamond last night (never got a chance to watch the whole before). A MUST WATCH MOVIE, mark that. Guess that is more than appreciaton by me. Another movie I watched is Little Miss Sunshine. Aah this one was a mediocre movie. I wonder how could it make way to bag some nominations and even an award at Oscars. But wasn’t a bad time-pass. It should probably be “300″ today.

Yeah, I know thats quite a lot of fun. But somewhere in the cerebrum of my brain, a neuron tics and reminds me of the VMC paper I have to take in a fortnight. So studies shouldn’t be neglected. And studies and blogging are kinda antagonistic to each other.

Attention Everyone!

I thought you’d like to know that there are a lot of changes that are going to be taking place across the board as far as the servers & personal computers go.

The goal is to remove all laptop computers by 30 April 2007 and all
Desktop computers by 31 May 2007 as a part of the ongoing cost-cutting
Around the organization.

Instead, everyone will be provided with an Etch-A-Sketch.

Etch-A-Sketch

There are many sound reasons for doing this:

1. No boot-up problems

Freedom, Liberty, Enfranchisement!

Yes it’s over. Finally over. So the Boards, I aren’t through with them officially yet, MCQs left, but mentally/physically/biologically/emotionally or whatever, they are over. So no interest in telling how did they all go. Ofcourse my input had been to the extreme, (not really), but I did what I could, now I’ve left it upto destiny. Talk about something else man!

Yeah so how about Cricket? I guess that’s another subject you would shun away from. God damn, you know the situation. Just see this image. How true!

India & pakistan, both back home!

Just another comment, you know India can make into the Super 8 if Bermuda somehow manages to prevail against Bangladesh. But that seems pretty out of the question. Yet everyone feels, Bermuda will triumph over, thanks to the match-fixing process. If India is compelled to pack her/his bags and return back home, India is gonna suffer severe economic loss. About 200 hundred crores (as what I’ve heard). South Africa V Australia today, will definitely be exciting. Okay so I’m at my nani’s place today, here for a night stay. Will write soon.

Update : Here’s an sms I just received.

Entire responsibility of loss in World Cup goes to Mrs. Indira Gandhi. How? Think upon. It was she who created Bangladesh.
