Conversations in poetry



From: Pavan
To: Tanu



     Chorii…

     Tumhaari P gayi landoon,
     Kiya hai wahan se teliphoon,
     Tumhaari yaad satatii hai
     Par tu call naa uthatii hai :-)

     Phuun kiya tha maine abhie abhie
     Tumne receive na kiya tabhie tabhie
     Gaana sunn rahii hogii Rabbi Rabbi
     Bol ab call karuu kabhie kabhie?


And in response Tanu wrote:

     Sweets phone vibrate mode me tha
     Mainey aaj subeh hi dekha
     Main maangti hoon tumse kshama
     Humsey rooth tum na jaana
     Kya aaj baat karney ka time hoga ???

Ambigram Magic



Have you ever tried searching for yourself on Google? I just tried today and surprisingly, I found 2 search results that were indeed related to me! There are some comments I’ve put on the Yahoo! Widgets page; that makes up the first search result. But the second is more interesting. Its an ambigram that Rajdeep Paul had made for me years ago; and has posted it on his blog. It was very interesting to find Google tracing me down!

The one in which the laptop gets fixed




Guess what, my laptop has been fixed now and a few folks have just enjoyed platinum privileges being the first people to know about it .. the motherboard was fixed yesterday and the display is now working fine... I wasn’t able to connect to the internet though .. because there was some problem with the network card ... so I’ve been busy trying to fix it ever since I woke up (and did some basic tasks, of course) .. the fan is blowing on full speed for some Toshiba-alone-knows reason ... I'm now searching for ideas (read recipes) for breakfast.. or brunch, because it’s nearly noon now...



I read a story written by a friend last evening and I must tell you that he’s got a gift. I, on the other hand, am not very good with fiction, so it pleases my ego to believe that I am better off with travelogues. That too, I must confess, I’m very sporadic at. I’m gonna find out what the URL of his blog is because I am not entirely impressed yet



My agenda for today includes, apart from the unavoidable cleaning chores, a trip to the post office to send a bunch of bills on behalf of my friend (who’s busy wooing his girl). Since these bills (of his Munich trip) total a jaw-dropping figure and now that the fate of the reimbursement totally (or, greatly) depends on my making a trip to the post office (and sending the bills in time), he has offered to buy me chocolates. I strongly believe that it is sinful to refuse chocolates and so I have persuaded myself and agreed to this arduous job



While I am enjoying the joy of working from my laptop with the comfort of uninterrupted (by VPN timeout) broadband, my stomach has escalated the request it raised this morning for food. So if you would, please allow me to cater to the needs of my 1500cc tummy which is rumbling a storm now!
