    This is the snap of my bike’s odo just before it hit 10k kilometers on Friday, May 12th. I had bought the bike on Feb 19th, 2006.

  • Things on my desk

    We have shifted from our original location to a newer and uninhabited island of a place. Anyways, wanted to write down what is on my desk at the moment.

    1. A photograph of a girl jumping on a beach from Chromasia – with Floyd’s “Learning to Fly” on it
    2. Clocks – Coldplay
    3. Calvin & Hobbes
    4. Snap of STAR-PLUS at Indijoes (a lovely restaurant on Airport Road) in Bangalore just before the Rehman concert (which is another amazing story)
    5. Something there is that doesn’t love a wall – Akanksha
    6. Hugh Macleod
    7. If – Rudyard Kipling
    8. Daffodils – William Wordsworth
    9. Mending Wall – Robert Frost
    10. Sabka Katega – bodhiTree

    Other than these I have a laminated copy of a Charles Swindoll saying and some work related stuff.

  • Gen Post

    A lot has happened over the last week or so, some happy, others sad.

    I turned 24 last week and was promised a Digi SLR (Nikon D50 or Canon Digital Rebel XT) from my so generous bro 🙂 Meanwhile, my blog has been getting quite a few hits for the lyrics of the song Kuch Is Tarah posted below. Thanks Atif.

    Amongst other stuff, some crazy asshole killed 33 students at Virginia Tech. Suraj’s friend Ankit is studying there, and it was not before some anxious moments that it was confirmed that he is safe. However, Prof. Loganathan and Minal weren’t luck enough. May God bless their souls. George Bush (http://www.ericschwartz.com/ES_pages/clinton.html) still defended the right to bear arms under the Second Ammendment.

    “Only the names change — And the numbers“, says Times of London while questioning why America still had archiac laws that allowed civilians to bear firearms.

  • Nuggets of wisdom!

    Read a couple of amazing things on Google Reader today morning.

    1. From Gaping Void – “If you want to have a cool brand, you have to do cool shit.” While you are at it, check out Hugh’s notes for the Edelman talk here.
    2. From Andre’s Thoughts – “Some people are assholes.” I felt that very strongly about someone last night, but then I would say to him. “Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.”

  • Vetti!!

    I admit. I have been very vetti over this week and unless something drastic changes in this week, I am going to be vetti for another week or so.

    Damn this is so boring. Especially with the net connection at home being broken!!
