  • A Higher Power

    An entity that is revered by millions, who are driven by a desire just to be in its presence.. its physical manifestation can be touched and felt, but nothing beyond that… as with other higher powers, there is a human who can guide you on… in front of it, superstars and common man are all alike.. people stare all agog at the throes of despair and ecstasy that it bestows on those who appear before it.. it affects people so much that it is almost treated as a human, rather than a different entity.. and yes, they say it helps those who help themselves..it knows all the answers, and offers lifelines to those who come before it..it can change your fortune, on weekends, on star plus at 9.00, its computerji on KBC dvitiya!!
    until next time, oh, samay samaapt!!

  • Out of control

    While there was a Hindi movie by that name which pretty much succeeded in its stated objective, at least as far as audience temper goes, this title is more a description of the post, and my state of mind…remember this post, where i realised the uselessness of certain keys.. well, this post can be seen as a corollary… and yes,it aint supposed to be a serious post 🙂
    you are sitting in a meeting that has been going on for quite sometime, one which is so important that you cant step out of it for some time, and some freak has made sure that the air conditioning settings match the natural settings of siberia, and you get a call, from nature… how useful would it be to use ‘Ctrl P’..
    how about the meteorology guys get to know of a seismic occurence that would result in a tsunami which could wipe out entire populations, and all they would have to prevent it is to use ‘Ctrl C’…
    and while we are on this horribly imaginative ride, theres something i have always wanted in life- an undo function, and i, for one would be extremely happy in my professional life,if i could have an option that said ‘Save Ass’…
    until next time, i’m scared, whos gonna Ctrl U?? 😉

  • Key Bored!!

    Maybe we trust the machine too much. Or maybe we expect it to do too much for us.. well anyway, the damn key on the computer keyboard does not work, or was too bored to work, and so i had to manually shift all the stuff to our new office….
    i should have known, have tried to esc a lot of times, but failed!! wonder whether we really ctrl the machines, or they control us…..

    until next time, is there an alt??

  • All tied up

    Culturally and emotionally, it has changed a lot over the years – from this to this !!
    until next time, happy rakhi to all of you 🙂
