Whose "Call" is it anyway?

Got the following article in a Macho Rulz email forward, as usual :-) , thanks to Surendran. Saving some words for better use later, I leave this one to mess with your sense of humour. Basically, I gave up on this one completely :D Read and savour all of it...

PS: It may seem too incredible to be true, but I'd take it for its lighter side.. like they say, "all's fair in love and war!" :P

Face-off updated..

Following up on my radical decision^ to quit the world's most popular, attractive and addictive network (arguably, of course), it appears that I may not be on the wrong side of the tide after all. Remarkably, facebook seems to have recorded its first losses - much like discount bookings in stock market! Are things waning?

Here's the story.

Stumble[d]Upon!

StumbleUpon! made my day today! Here's how. May seem trivial to the bright and the elite, but much to my amusement, I came across something funny yet very thoughtful (given that I am a mechanical guy after all) in a random website hosting these quotes-

(Need I say anything in testimony of one Mr. D.H. Lawrence?)
  • Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you've got to say, and say it hot.
  • Design in art, is a recognition of the relation between various things, various elements in the creative flux. You can't invent a design. You recognize it, in the fourth dimension. That is, with your blood and your bones, as well as with your eyes.
  • But better die than live mechanically a life that is a repetition of repetitions.
  • I am in love - and, my God, it is the greatest thing that can happen to a man. I tell you, find a woman you can fall in love with. Do it. Let yourself fall in love. If you have not done so already, you are wasting your life.
The following (last) one totally cracked me up. Any of my 'chaddi dosths' or fellow NITTwits from pre-Chambana times would certainly vouch, in particular, for my unique sixth sense! Or is it one of the five? :-)
  • I like to write when I feel spiteful. It is like having a good sneeze.
Three cheers to that grand sneeze!

Till next..

Face-off!

After much deliberation, I managed to pull the plug. I'm officially off facebook.. true, I'll sorely miss all of those vampires, slayers, superpokes, biting chumps, scrabulous, petrolhead,........., are you interested, name the actors from the hairstyle quiz, you're a hottie, which swear word you are,....... the list never ends!

Motivation- this. Courtesy, Arvind.

Cheers to the facehooked! Checking out...
Adios.

PS: Facebook, hotel california? Bah, humbug!

dé·jà vu

Here we go again! Doesn't this space seem ever so familiar? I mean six to eight months back I couldn't stop thinking about what I'd post, whether my blog would make impact, how many hot chicks around Chambana would visit (read "stalk!") my profile and silently sight adichify me here around campus grounds... well, well Mr. Prince Charming, we ain't on Mars. Are we? Sigh!

Anyway, for the n-th time I take pride cryin' out aloud- I'm back.. er.. not sure if I'd commit to say well and truly though! And lo beware, my foghorn shall spare none. I mean you've got to have the heart to face it. I know it sucks, but that's the best deal of reality I've got for you. And oh, before I forget, the usual disclaimers.. blah blah... may be deemed, rest assured, in place.. not to mention! :-)

God bless!

PS: Did I start off a sentence, given my immaculate Victorian writing, with an "And... blah blah"? Arrrrrrgh!
