Bye bye 2005.

Today is the last working day of this year. Office closed early today, at 5:30 hrs. But I am still sitting on the chair in front of a computer in my office writing one useless blog. Well, it was due to some pending work which needs to finish today itself.

And its finished now. I am free. I can go.

So better call it a day, infact a year.

Signing off from 2005.

Will be back in 2006.

Yahoo messenger

I guess, the very name of Yahoo is getting synonymous with the internet. No internet savvy can deny that. So I don't see the need to explain about the services offered by the yahoo messenger. I can say that yahoo messenger is the best IM service offered till date, atleast for me. In some distant past I used to like MSN messenger as well, but most of my friends are not using this; so I failed to carry out my interest in it any further.

1. What is AB thinking while entering the temple premises.

2. What prayer he has offered there.

NOISE or MUSIC

Again today morning, it so happened that I got up early in the morning, switched the 7800 W Sony system on and put in one of my favorite CD. The music played by the system was very pleasant. This was a pretty classic collection of pop music.

Boxing day test match was going on in Melbourne. South Africa was fighting hard to establish its resurgent image in world cricket. On the other side Australian bowlers were trying hard to reclaim their lost supremacy in the world cricket. Nope I was not in Melbourne. I was just watching the match on the television relaxing on the sofa in the living room of our flat on the sixth floor of a tall building in Baroda; the volume of the TV was muted and Marvin Gaye was singing something on the music system.

Don’t worry if you have not heard about Marvin Gaye. You need not to know everybody on the earth. But he had sung one of my favorite songs, that’s how I know his name.
