Well today's day was well... BORING [don't tell me u were expecting something else, especially after reading the title]. Nothing much happened. It was filled with power cuts and Anoop almost screwing up Fedora in the other machine, in the morning till about evening. The only productive I did during that period was getting the UPS for the other machine. Now, it wouldn't suffer the pain of not having power during a power cut [Good God, did i write that? I think thatz cozof reading too much of PPL Photostats].

Oh yes, PPL Photostats. Wonderful they are - the perfect example for obvious definitions and conclusions. An excerpt.. and i QUOTE -

<em>What is dynamic type checking?
Well, its checking the type dynamically!!</em>

Itz as obvious as they get. I think I will write a wonderful exam tomorrow for this. I am filled with DATA!!! Towards the evening, things got better with the gaming sessions for the day. Counter Strike and FIFA reigned supreme. Got screwed in FIFA by <a title="Sidzofrenia" href="http://members.lycos.co.uk/sidzofrenia">Sid</a>. Redeemed myself in CS, even managed to kick <a title="Yeah even Reminz got a site" href="http://members.lycos.co.uk/rdguruji">Remin</a>'s butt!

Coming to think of it, the title doesn't really fit for the evening. It was kinda good =)! Oh yeah, I know why I feel kinda low. Itz coz I gotta call Balaji from <a title="TCS- one and only =(" href="http://tcs.com/">TCS</a> tomorrow. I mite get fired upon for not talking to TCS after Dishaa '05. But, I have a jolly good reason for that. They did NOT send a single person to see Dishaa - and the grand success that it was. I agree to the fact that they provided us with helluva lot of money [Rs. 1.25 lakhs] is NOT sixpence. But, I did expect something better. =(. Anyway, have to talk to Balaji tomorrow. Other than that, nothing much!

Almost forgot... today [March 9th] is <a title="Bubbly Vedz AT gmail DOT com" href="mailto://vedavn@gmail.com">darling Vedz'</a> b'day! She turns 16 today. Interestingly enough, she also has her board exam [Mathematics] today!! It is kinda weird =)! But I am sure will be a memorable experience for her. She could always say, "Hey, guess what? I had my board Math paper on the SAME day as my 16th bday!!" Weird, but nonetheless something memorable.

Well, gotta play some FIFA [somehow get a port for Fedora Core 3 of FIFA '05]. WINE somehow craps up here. Have to check out more on that. In the Fedora front, I was working on setting up my Radio Station [yeah the "Radio Guru"] - ya know totally RJin away to glory. [Imagine the next big Internet RJ] ;-)! But unfortunately, I couldn't get the damn sources to compile and make properly.[ yeah whatz new]!! Why does Fedora Core 3 make life so much horrible. A simple double click would have done fine. =)!. The ONE and ONLY thing not so great in Fedora Core 3. Else, I love it!! [XP still RULZ tho, is this the beginning of a polyamorous experience for me??]
