Microblog: 2008-10-31

  • Somebody better do something about these Vimax Pill ads. #
  • @DramaQu33n Everything. #
  • @codelust But then, there are taxes! #
  • Playing Knopfler. #
  • One Omnigraffle Wireframe done. More to come tomorrow. #

Microblog: 2008-10-30

  • Another day which doesn’t seem enough for getting in the right amount of relaxation. Waking up at 2 doesn’t help. #
  • India have scored in excess of 550 and are still going at it. Who would have thunk that Laxman would come good in the end? And Gambhir? #
  • 600. That’s India’s score. They better declare now. #
  • Out with bro for the evening. Doesn’t happen too often! #
  • I don’t know what to do with all the Windows 7 news that my feedreader is overloaded with. #
  • Listing to the latest TWiT episode. Calacanis, Kevin Rose and Will Harris are on the panel discussing the downturn. Interesting. #
  • Opera Mini feels a lot more cooler if you use the smallest possible font. Hate the fact that its UI is so anti-Blackberry though! #
  • The rock bottom would be when Google lays people off: Well said, Jason Calacanis. #
  • Still listening to Podcasts. It is soon to sleep, though. Need to get the right start to tomorrow and that involves waking up on time. #

  • The dark lord rises from hibernation. Hello again, twitterverse. Its been a great 3 days off air. #
  • Is it just me, or is the Windows 7 Taskbar really ugly? I agree with the concept, but not with the ‘ugly square icons’ look and feel! #
  • Going home soon enough. Tomorrow’s off. Sleep till 12! #
  • Ok guys. I’m done. See you later, tomorrow. #

  • My Blackberry just recovered from a scary phase where it refused to recognize my SIM card. Turned out to be a stupid issue! #
  • So the Malegaon blasts had Hindus behind? No wonder they were so lame. Sad bomb. Only 6 people dead. Hindus are lousy at this sort of shit! #
  • I wanna be a cop in Italy. Bastards get a Gallardo to drive! #
  • NewsGator Go! has been acting funny with me lately. Doesn’t seem to enjoy free and fair access to the internet despite full data coverage. #
  • In retrospect, the saddest thing about Linux is that Firefox 3 is the best browser available for it. Lightweightness can go fuck itself! #
  • Somehow, the iCal tasks on my Mac never sync with my Blackberry using PocketMac. What do YOU do for syncing tasks with Blackberry and OS X? #
  • Chelsea vs Liverpool. Alonso scores for Liverpool in the 10th. 0-1. Too bad I can’t watch the whole game. #
  • Still 0-1 after 60 minutes. Managing to catch the game at a local pub with @Atharva and @anirban81 #
  • Liverpool manage to hold on for the win. Sweet. #

  • Sleep finally after a long period of wakefulness interspersed with a few very brief naps. Waking up at 2:00 in the afternoon tomorrow. #
  • Woke up an hour ago. My Gujju housing society is surprisingly quiet around this time. I have mixed feelings about such lazy days. #
  • The TV is on. EPL. Man U vs Everton. Looks fast paced enough. These fuckers better be scoring some goals. Don’t wanna watch a 0-0 Draw! #
  • I’ve set my Blackberry to use the smallest possible font size, inspired by @basakbabies and this feels a lot more cooler than before! #
  • 22nd Minute. Fletcher scores for Man U. 1-0. #
  • Too much fucking spam in my email. Nigerian generals. Social Network invites. Jasmine Ahuja from MouthShut. Domino’s Pizza. And what not! #
  • Still 1-0 at Half Time. #
  • Trail by a goal. But Everton have more energy. #
  • Everton score. Fellaini heads one in the 64th. 1-1. Man U looking weak. #
  • Mom’s pestering me to take a bath. Only 15 minutes left for the live match to end, but middle aged women have trouble understanding this! #
  • @gitanjalib ah well. Call me antisocial. But yes, I don’t care too much about Diwali. Just the holidays interest me, not the festival! #
  • @punkpolkadots well I like Liverpool and Man U. And Real Madrid. Get pissed at Man U for losing the plot often. And Everton seems charged! #
  • 87th minute. Ronaldo missed what looked like a fucking sitter, 10 feet fom the goal post! #
  • @punkpolkadots its kind of sad, though. After winning last year! #
  • Game ended. Scoreline says 1-1, but the atmosphere looks like an Everton win. Man U need to stop losing the plot! #
  • And now for the bath which I promised mom I shall take! #
  • Exhaustive bath had. Now, unlike others who would have done Brunch on Saturday, I shall do Linner! #
  • Contemplating plan for the evening. Meeting @anirban81 shall be a feature. #
  • Off to see @anirban81 at Red Box. Looking forward to some freewheeling conversation. #
  • Doing a Mailmerge to send Diwali Wishes is weak! #
  • High tide at Versova. Hanging out with @anirban81 near a sea inlet. This would be awesome if the place didn’t smell so bad. #
