A new era

Today marks the dawn of a new era. I have shrugged away 5 almost 4.5 yrs or lethargy and finally started calculated gambling err..investing some money in the stock market :)!! Hurray! Thanks to Nabajit to guided me through the web site (ICICIDirect). While the stock that I have bought is marginally down just hours after the epoch making transaction :) the hope is to cash in on a (1:1) bonus, the record date (see how I have started slipping in the money jargon :)) for which has been fixed for Nov 14th. I hope this era is that of prosperity!!

Likewise, God alone knows how you select tracks, but breasts do come equipped with a pleasing alternative to the iPod's selector wheel. We can imagine the scenario: Girlfriend: "Oi, what the bloody hell are you doing?" Boyfriend: "Hold on, I'm just scrolling down to Stairway to Heaven."

Legal entertainment

An interesting, entertaining saga is doing the rounds for the past few days. Involves IIPM and some bloggers, including one Gaurav Sabnis who resigned from IBM during the fracas. Apparently JAM magazine tried to verify the claims in the ads of IIPM and posted their findings and Gaurav linked to it. IIPM then sent Gaurav a "legal notice". There is comprehensive coverage on DesiPundit. Read and enjoy.
