A conversation with Pardesi who is on dialup, (can I say “Loser”) reminded me of this. <p> <figure> <img src="images/061127_dial-up_torture.gif" alt="Torture 2.0"/> <figcaption>Torture 2.0</figcaption> </figure> </p>
I guess it is moments like these which give us a break from the realities of the world and allow us to see the lighter moments of life. BBC has a story , of a mother in the US, who got her son arrested because he opened his Christmas gifts early. I guess, he can counter-sue her for “distress”, and she can counter-counter-sue (is there such a word?) for pain and anguish!...

Update: Meenakshi has been bossing me around (as usual) to update this post. It might help if she actually started blogging herself instead. (If you don’t see another post here, that might be because I have had a few broken bones) Meenakshi got this video attached to one of the spam emails. William is very cute, and though the sounds his dad makes aren’t quite that funny, William of course disagrees....
I love the pun on the US in this - awesome. :)
If you thought you had a thing managing logistics - well then check this out and see how you fare! (Thanks to Meenakshi for the link)

Yes, there are probably more BSOD screens on the net that anything else, but these Top 10 Linux crashes are a keeper. Karan, see number 5 - were you on it?

I am Mario. I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. What Video Game Character Are You? (via Lap’s distraction )
Which one is better, between a PC and a Mac? Well, why don’t you decide on your own .
Keeping on the video roll, I got this via one of the Avanade communities – the animator vs the animation – very funny!
