What happened to cricket, dude???

I am atleast happy that the (bloody?) news channels weren't right about Indian Cricket, that India (read Dhoni) will snatch the series 7-0, even though it makes me sad that India is going to loose the next few series now, as they haven't lost a single match in this series, the fact that doesn't go well down the history lane. What? You didn't knew the england team were scared out of India, panicked after the recent attack in Mumbai by out homebrew (ok I admit, Pak's homebrew ) Terrorist!!! Thats the only happy news about the recent attack (that I got from im@ibnalerts.com amidst other repeated disturbing news ) Pradeep Pati

Addiction!

Well well well, the previous post was just a placeholder, just to make the appearance of the blog change a little, so that blogger (and my chatufied readers would know that I am still waiting to RIP , unlike Lehman brothers, (I apologize to everyone for overdoing the fun-making 0f the F- market of the US of A, but , chatufying being in my nature, I really couldn't stop myself(And this habit of putting brackets inside brackets, has only one meaning, that the writer is always nightmared by so called Computer languages(Oh yes, other fellow lunatics are also adept are doing it (non-lunatic aam aadmi do call them Mathematicians, but the difference being that mathematicians do distinguish between various brackets and use them properly, where are the former lunatic group seems to have forgotton what they do mean.)))))

Hackers

There are two kinds of hackers, those who seem unsure (only to the public ) how to do it, and those who are very sure (i.e. appear to the public as if) that they know how to do it. The following story is a tribute to the second ones. Master Foo and the Script Kiddie A stranger from the land of Woot came to Master Foo as he was eating the morning meal with his students. “ I hear y00 are very l33t, ” he said. “ Pl33z teach m3 all y00 know. ” Master Foo's students looked at each other, confused by the stranger's barbarous language. Master Foo just smiled and replied: “ You wish to learn the Way of Unix? ” “ I want to b3 a wizard hax0r, ” the stranger replied, “ and 0wn ever3one's b0xen. ” “ I do not teach that Way, ” replied Master Foo. The stranger grew agitated. “ D00d, y00 r nothing but a p0ser, ” he said. “ If y00 n00 anything, y00 wud t33ch m3. ” “ There is a path, ” said Master Foo, “ that might bring you to wisdom. ” The master scribbled an IP address on a piece of pape

The RE-Initialisation

Some one year seven months ago, an under grad student thought of getting a blog of his own. He thought he would blend it with humor, will try to show his Institute to the outside world (Seems the poor guy thought that Insti was not visible otherwise, at least not through google earth!!!).

He got busy with his life, campus, friend (trying to woo to-be-girlfriends), and the blog gathered some electronic dust (being in e-space that is.)   Then, after the 1 yr-7 month timespan, he somehow managed to get a domain for free and he concluded that he would get his blog to be posted under the domain he got for free and you are now under the same domain.   His spectrum ha
