We all know what our country has been through in the last 70 hours or so.

Thank God for our brave men, the mayhem is finally over now.

My heart goes out to the REAL HEROES of INDIA who sacrificed their lives in the line of duty, along with the countless innocents who were killed in this act of sheer barbarism.

Let us all hope that all this has taught the “right lessons” to all those who matter.

Bharat Mata Ki Jai

Rakhi 2008 - my most memorable so far!!

Rakshabandhan - this festival has always been very very close to my heart right from my childhood. I dont have my own sister but I have been lucky enough that God has blessed me with people in my life who have gone on to become more than an own sister can be. Be it the love, the affection, the care, I have got it all from these “special sisters” of mine.

Ok guys, I could not resist posting this …

Quite honestly, this year’s Rakhi was very very special for me and by far the most memorable one as well.

My heart goes out to all my lovely sisters out there. THANK YOU SISTERS.

Hmm, now you must be wondering why this pic only without any kinda details like last time (and that too in a post coming from someone who speaks so much!) …I have to confess here though, that I had been planning to share the details like I did last year (have drafted it as well) but I am not too sure if I would be able to do justice this time! What do you guys say?

May God bless ya’ll.

1 week, 2 babies and a Chachu…

Some of you might be wondering what is this title all about.  Don’t worry I’ll explain.

April 30, 2008

Early morning 5AM my bhabhi (sister-in-law) starts having pain in her stomach. Everyone is worried at home, is it labor pain? Doctor is called and bhabhi is asked to be admitted to the hospital. 10AM she is admitted. Doctor checks and says she will operate at 8:30 in the evening. OMG!!!! Everyone is excited. Doctor is late, bhabhi is taken to the OT at 8:45

9:20PM the news is out. IT’S A BABY GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone rushes in to the first floor to have a glance of the baby. But where is the baby? Out of sheer excitement everyone rushed to the ward bhabhi was kept in. After a few secs someone shouted, “its here!” The baby was taken out from the OT and kept in the room right next to it!

MAN!! What a moment… I had tears in my eyes… my mother was over the moon… my brother was so happy… everyone was delighted… the atmosphere seemed as if it was some festival… indeed it was a special occasion for us… an angel had become a part of our family…

Thank you god.

My another bhabhi (Rachna bhabhi, someone who got me out of a rut an year back… someone very close to my heart) is admitted on the 6th. Everyone curious… will it be a boy or a girl?

On the morning of 7th May I get up early as I had to rush in to the hospital by 6:30. I did reach in time! Bhabhi is taken to the OT at 6:30 Anxious moments for everyone. Everyone is waiting…

The door opens… “IT’S A BOY”!! Yipee!! My bhabhi had given birth to a handsome prince at 6:31AM. I was the one who broke this news to the family members waiting downstairs. Man it takes some guts to do that… The baby is taken out for everyone to have a glimpse… I saw tears in the eyes of my brother (Vivek bhaiya, my boss, my friend, my critic, someone I love and respect a lot) It was an unforgettable moment for us all.

Here comes prince charming…

Thank you for the two wonderful gifts God.

Ha to bhaiyo aur bhaiyon ki behno hua na mera title logical?

Did Google Fool You ?

admin — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 10:02:03 +0000

Hi guys,

Were you fooled by Google this April Fool’s Day?

See what G tried to fool people.

Earth has issues, and it’s time humanity got started on a Plan B. So, starting in 2014, Virgin founder Richard Branson and Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin will be leading hundreds of users on one of the grandest adventures in human history: Project Virgle, the first permanent human colony on Mars.

BTW, dont you dare think that Anand was fooled.Cuz, I knew from last time that it had to be a prank from G. ;)Dont bother commenting!!

EnJOy!!

Sad But Real!!!!

Yahoo to Reject Microsoft Bid

admin — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 12:07:24 +0000

After days of speculation, Yahoo’s board of Directors has decided to reject Microsoft Corp’s unsolicited takeover offer. The board feels the $31 per share offer was too little and it wanted atleast $40 against each share. Everyone is keeping their fingers crossed over the possibility of Microsoft increasing their initial bid of $44.6 billion. If they were to do so it would be an additional increase of $12 billion!

Net Services Disrupted

admin — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 06:56:34 +0000

Just in case you were wondering the reason for your slow internet connection at your home, office, or even the local cybercafe, dont even dare blaming your local ISPs.

Then who to blame? - Blame the ship that accidentally cut 2 undersea cables in the Mediterranean Sea.Nearly the whole of India and large parts of West Asia including UAE, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia are the worst affected.60% of normal services have been affected in India while Egypt has reported a 70% downfall in internet services.

This is surely going to result in huge losses for the IT industry especially the call centres, where the international calls are now being rerouted.

Wondering how long you would not be able to chat with your chat friend? Well, it could take upto 1 full week to have everything back in place. So keep your fingers crossed.

Hey, dont you think it could be a chance for people like us to look around for some other things.

Have your say on what you are planning to do…
