Random pickings from everyday life::
1) Yesterday I called a BSNL number and what the replies come.."The Airtel number you have dialed is busy, please dial after sometime." Has there been a merger between the two??
2) Last week I uploaded 12 photos in my Orkut profile's album but for 3 days it said 11 photos on my profile.
3) Google team has not been able to fix an error in the 'Google Adsense code' for more than 3 weeks now. As a result I am unable to make changes to template of this page.
4) 'All that cleans teeth is not Colgate'. Somebody should teach this to Assamese folks, as we never bother which brand of toothpaste we are using. Colgate and toothpaste are synonymous.
DRAMATISATION::

6) The first reaction of an Oriya person to any query: 'aangya(n)'. Its basically a sort of acknowledgement.
7) The advantage of belonging to the Tata group.
Uncle :

Think what he would have said if I had said Aricent or CSC. He would have given strange looks.
8) This one from college days, one of my friends actually clicked on the shut down button to play a video file as directed by another of my friends. The computer ignorant has now joined a leading software firm of India.
9) A tip to download from youtube, just add 'kiss' before it.(www.kissyoutube.com). Save the file with an extension .flv and play it on a flv player.
10) After watching 'A Warriors Journey', Bruce Lee's philosophy sure has made an impact on me.Some of his popular sayings:
*Be formless... shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle; it becomes the bottle. You put it into a teapot; it becomes the teapot. Water can flow, and it can crash. Be like water, my friend...
*Using no way as way; Having no limitation as limitation.
