Names hav always been my fascination. Here are the names of PCs, I used:

Sawtooth: While in college, 3 guys pooled in & bought this PC. Inspired with the characteristics of a sawtooth waveform, I named it so. Did lots of work in C, Matlab, Photoshop & Flash with it. It also served as an epicenter of Hostel movie club & gaming centre.

Mr.Fertile: This is a desktop, I bought after starting to work. I donno why, I addressed it to be masculine. Since, the host names cannot hav dots, I settled with Fertile. It is with my bro now. Hope he is making, good use of it.

Strawbee: Its a Dell Inspiron 1520. It has a red front body, so took the Straw part of Strawberry. I wanted it to work & be active like a Bee. So is the name. It gets hot pretty fast, bulky & is ugly looking. The best part of it, is its 1660×1050 screen. I adore it all the time.

The SSID of our home router is Serene. My roomie named it. I guess its cool.

Idea: Planet FLOSS India

There was just 1 seat vacant & it is by the window. The girl sitting next & by the aisle, offered me the window seat. She is generous, I thought. The girl was pretty ok in looks. Not pretty, ok. She wore a cozy brownish over coat, covering from the head. It shud be waterproof as well.

The vehicle moved. I felt that my left shoulder is feeling wet. There was some water, trickling thro’ the gaps of the roof. “Damn you water!”, I smirked within. The vehicle now moved faster. There were water droplets that lashed thro’ the window. It came on & on. It left my left hand, donning a full-hand shirt, fully wet now. Oh! Yeh. It was raining.

I never looked at the girl, after.

The girl, in spite of being fully protected had forced a guy, in summer cottons, to drench himself. I don’t think any guy wud do this. Even if the girl isn’t pretty or pretty ok!

The day trend is the similar to my weekly one. The dose gets woefully stronger towards the midnight. OMG! Its about 800 at midnight!

I live in the 1st floor of an apartment. I go out to hang my towel on the string. Some guy from the street screams, “Madam!”. I turn to him. He, this time screams, “Sir ____ kaavala?”.

I waved him so as to say that I don’t need anything. Got into the house & undid my plait hair!

Update #0:
It happens, again today! An auto driver calls me “Madam”. This time not because of my hair, but my legs. Bloody guys, was it mine waxed or something? Ho Man! The world around conspires to make parody of me! :(

• Was thinking of 3 people in the past 2 weeks with whom I had lost contact. All the 3 got in touch in some way or the other. :)
• Wanted to watch a particular movie one more time. Felt a little lethargic to find it. A few days back happened go to my colleague’s place. He offers me a DVD which has this movie along with a few others. You know how my face bloomed? :)
• I generally walk back home from work. Yesterday, while walking, was thinking how this recreation & resort culture is upcoming. How one has to attract tourists, the facilities that can be offered, etc. Whether it has to be a farmland or some hill-station, activity centric or for relaxation, all such & such,… I reach home & I see my roomie. Asked where he has been for the weekend. He replies, “Been to _this_ hill-station to see a land to buy. Thinking of developing a commercial property!”.
• Mutual funds is other thing. Was looking for a good one last week. Someone who doesn’t know about this, sends me a link on how to choose the right one.!

Like the Alchemist says, something like “When you are in need, the whole world around conspires to help you in getting that”. Hope the trend continues. :)
