Not much to say. I am thinking of decreasing my diary blogging. Will be moving to content blogging soon. Do visit my profile to have a view of my blogging sites.

For the days :
Humor - A young man asked an old rich man how he made his money. The old guy fingered his worsted wool vest and said, "Well, son, it was 1932. The depth of the Great Depression. I was down to my last nickel. "I invested that nickel in an apple. I spent the entire day polishing the apple and, at the end of the day, I sold the apple for ten cents. "The next morning, I invested those ten cents in two apples. I spent the entire day polishing them and sold them at 5:00 pm for 20 cents. I continued this system for a month, by the end of which I'd accumulated a fortune of $1.37."
"And that's how you built an empire?" the boy asked.
"Heavens, no!" the man replied. "Then my wife's father died and left us two million dollars."
Decision - Move to content blogging

Chote is placed (on a contract basis, though). Nowadays, we are having a good time in our flat and not so good in the office. Yesterday, I jogged in a different way. Instead of jogging in the park, it was on the road - it was fast walking actually. I remembered P T Usha.

Song - 'Chalte Rahein' - aasma

Comment - Read this. I don't think that Chinese can be childish enough to think anything like this. If it does, let we Indians warn (challenge) them that they are not gng to succeed in any plot against us. India is known for its unity and will always be one against any external force. Beware China...
Mail - kissing not a violence from yahoo group 'lights of India'. Dont apply ur mind so much. It had pictures of kissing kids (boys and girls ofcourse)
Humor - A man was telling his friends, "When my wife is infuriated, she starts shouting at me, my children and even at our dogs and nobody dares to answer her."
One of his friends asked."And when you are angry, what do you do?"
The man replied, "I also shout angrily at the windows and doors of the house and none of them dares to answer back.

This weekend was a good one. Had slept a lot and walked a lot.

Yesterday, I went to CV Raman Nagar - for the whole day. Came back after dinner and reoeganised a few of my folders.

Couldn't jog during the weekends. Restarted it today.

Today was a busy and tiring day. With the SwineFlu death toll rising, the day was not so good.

Good News... I am gng for jogging for the last two days. Well, I am trying to wake up early and shift it to morning too, but have not achieved success. Hope to get it in near future.

Today, twitter was down whole day. The spammers were succesful in creating panic in the twitter office.

In the fourth Ashes test, England (actually England-Flintoff) gave all their wickets in mere 102 runs. SL needs 322 runs to keep their chase for the clean sweep.

Friday has this particular lines always - enjoy ur weekend :)

Humor - Smith and his wife, a middle-aged couple, went for a stroll in the park. They say down on a bench to rest. They overheard voices coming from a secluded spot.
Suddenly Mrs. Smith realized that a young man was about to propose.
Not wanting to eavesdrop at such an intimate moment, she nudged her husband and whispered, "Whistle and let that young couple know that someone can hear them."
Smith said, "Whistle? Why should I whistle? Nobody whistled to warn me."
Decision - Keep jogging.

Today morning I got to learn a few things from Hemant. Let me tell you, I am a very good listener. :)

He told me about a couple of fundas related to jogging. First, stretching is a vital component. It should be evenly distributed into two periods - before the actual jogging and after the jogging. And its duration should be equal to the jogging time! It does keep the body pain away and helps in proper exercise of the muscles. I do the stretching after the jogging but never bothered about the warm-up. Now, I have to. Secondly, the speed factor. Normally, it is maximum in initially and decreases till we are exhausted. But, it should increase gradually from the first to the third quarter to reach a maximum and then it should be slowed down in the last quarter. It helps the body in maintaining the rhythm.

He told me that he jogs in the evening nowadays. Its a good idea for the dudes like me who can do anything but wakeup in the morning and go for jogging. Lemme try it out.

It all came from the stuff that one of his brother's friend is in IAF, posted in Siachen. Our (one way) discussion went into the conditions in Siachen - low temperature leading to freezing of the weapons, and food. I remember when I have been in the lowest temperature - @ around 5 in the morning on 2nd dec 2007 in Ranchi. I salute the soldiers posted in the 'live freezers'.

Today is Rakshabandhan. Wish you all (not all exactly) happy rakshabandhan.

Yesterday while going back from the office, I saw a dog waiting outside the book binding shop, opposite to our street. He was looking at the closed door and the name plate above it in such a way as an elderly person thinks -" Now, what should I do. There's only this shop around and I have to get this book binded tonight. I am dead!" Ha ha ha ha ha... So, cute....

Yesterday night, me and Abhishek discussed about the Freida Pinto debacle. She betrayed her fiance Rohan Antao, for a comparatively 'famous and rich' Dev Patel. We tried to discuss in the point of view of the three involved. As expected, since we were of different views, no result came in the end. The incident just proved yet again that its impossible to understand girls. Infact, from this incident we may conclude that they can always leave you if they get a better option.

For the days :
Song - 'Chaha hai tujhko' from Mann
NEWS - Recession Fear
Memory - Excercise?
Inspiration - Hemant
Award - Education is now a right
Comment - Hope, there's noone like Freida Pinto in my life.
Mail - Great Indian Management
Humor - Goldie, a middle aged Jewish woman goes to see a fortune teller.
"Two men are madly in love with me!" Goldie says. "Who will be the lucky one?"
The swami answers...." Morris will marry you, and Irving will be the lucky one."
Decision - Jogging @ night - Seems strange na.

This weekend didn't have anything special. Yesterday's friendship was celebrated by calling a few close ones... I couldn't complete the list.

For the days :
Song - 'Kyu, foolon ke' - Kambakht Ishq
NEWS - KMC expels two students for ragging
Comment - Cricketers should fall in line, says Gill. Try saying something of that sort for the politicians rather than cricketers and the I need not say anything after that.
Mail - Not many. no1 in the contest to be mentioned
Humor - A boy was assigned a paper on childbirth and asked his mother, "How was I born?"
"Well honey..." said the slightly prudish mother, "the stork brought you to us."
"Oh," said the boy, "and how did you and daddy get born?"
"Oh, the stork brought us too." "Well how were grandpa and grandma born?" the boy persisted.
"Well darling, the stork brought them too!" said the mother, by now starting to squirm a little.
Several days later, the boy handed in his paper to the teacher who read with confusion the opening sentence:
"This report has been very difficult to write due to the fact that there hasn't been a natural childbirth in my family for three generations."
