this one was fascinating...
"The time of your life"

"....Each of us can expect to sit for three months in the doctor's waiting room, though thanks to government targets, this is rarely the case on individual visits any more. We are likely to spend nearly three years gossiping with our friends, largely about the 16 hours of orgasms we enjoy. But, most surprisingly, 24 years will go in sleep. If that doesn't keep you awake at night, I don't know what will...."

PS:Happy diwali to all..Hope you have a great time..

PPS:This will be my first diwali out of my home..I made it a point to make it back every time before...will have to visit distant relatives that i know i have in mumbai and have never visited...in the last 1 and odd years...before i leave..
Best part: Good,free,home grub... :)
Worst part : making decent, sane conversation...without invective...in konkani !!!!

On "How to hack"..

The world wide web is an immense treasure-trove of information..and can give you results to something you never expected to see..

(Case in point being the number of people from the"gelf" turning up at my blog after googling "shakeela pics"..sorry guys...and girls..wrong number...)

Well...besides such pornographic(and rather disgusting material-pornography is still ok and gives you a good laugh....sometimes :)...but...involving shakeela in it is NOT !!!) , you get some highly interesting information..

I was googling for info/help on a new pl/sql editor...when i got this...insightful to the point of being precise !!!

Gowda vs. Murthy..Old vs. New...

Shekhar Gupta's take on the controversy surrounding the Gowda vs. Murthy BIAL fiasco..

“....Arrey bhai, yeh aadmi saara din prime minister nahin hai (this man is not a full-time prime minister),” he said. “From nine am to seven pm, he is prime minister of India, from seven pm to midnight he is chief minister of Karnataka, from midnight to two am, he is district magistrate of Hasan, then at 4.30 am he has to get up for puja, then breakfast, and then back to being prime minister of India. So when can he sleep?......”

Hilarious...
