  • Inspiration

    I came to know about this person through Dcubed’s blog. Then again through Scoble.

    I have read, heard and even seen some damn inspirational speeches, but this one by Prof. Randy Pausch has to be the most brilliant one. Ever.

    I admit. I had tears in my eyes during the end. You rock man.

  • Missing You

    It rained on Saturday and then again on Sunday. And I missed you immensely. Why did you have to??

    No one matched your skills in the rain. Wish you were there. Regenmeister. But you have a worthy successor in Hamilton.

  • The Ten Commandments

    Following the commandments by the FSM posted here, I find these very appealing (excerpts below). Dedicated to a journalist named Shakti – I did not know her, but know that she must have been brilliant. She had brilliant friends.

    Rule One: Thou Shalt Get Off Thy Lazy Ass And Get A Life,
    Thou shalt not moan or groan or bitch or throw thy toaster at thy wife.
    Thou art definitely good at something, find it, use it, try and do thy best.
    Do what makes thee happy, take an honest shot and screw the rest.

    Rule Five is not so soppy: Thou Shalt Be Silly sums it up,
    Life’s a joke, a laugh, a dream, a wine-glass, not a bitter cup,
    Thou shalt perform most diverse acts of looniness; thou shalt be random,
    Thou shalt make them giggle, thus earning glad, undying fandom.

    Rule Six: Thou Shalt Listen. Thou Shalt Care, Thou Shalt Reply,
    Be thou part of others’ lives, let them find thee standing by
    In times of need, let them remember joyous smiles and soft-held hands.
    Share their dreams, soothe their screams, be patient, try to understand.
    I’m sorry if this sounds too pious; I’m no angel, but I try.
    Won’t answer thy every text but there’s no harm in aiming high.

  • Daily WTF

    Man sues Yahoo and Google for taking their names from the tribes he has descended from.

    A man currently being detained by immigration in Houston, TX has filed a lawsuit claiming Yahoo and Google stole their names from Tanzanian tribes. As luck would have it, the man is a descendant of both tribes – what are the odds?

    The lawsuit states that Google was taken from the Gogo tribe, and Yahoo from the Yao tribe. The claim is asking for $10,000 be paid to each tribe member for the past three generations.

    Yeah right!
