Ode to my Abode for a Decade!

We have been through the thick & thin;
rains and shines;

We have traveled around the globe;
spent many nights in dingy and swanky hotel rooms;

In a "flash" of a moment, you had brought out the worst in me;
I never looked that bad elsewhere;

How easily you switched hands with that tall guy in Admin;
You are off my neck & shoulder;

You had been my Id for ten years!
You had been my Id Card for ten years!

I handed over the laptop;
We exchanged pleasantries;
We shook hands;

I deleted the e-mail profile; I tore the parking sticker;
and headed straight for home!

I'm out of HCL!

Vegetarianism!

Paul McCartney's request to Indian Prime Minister


This is Oozhi kaalam (ஊழி காலம்), Kali yuga (कलियुग), the last-stage of human life on earth?: Paul McCartney has a suggestion on Vegetarianism to India: Did anyone tell Paul that:

1. An average Indian goes to bed a vegetarian on most of the days - for want of money to buy meat?
2. Indians have hundreds of religious days in a year, when even a meat-lover remains a vegetarian?
2. Americans with a population 4 times less than that of Indians, consumes more meat than Indians?

iPad/iPhone

In continuation of this post (http://mottaimaadi.blogspot.com/2008/12/anti-virus-software-is-scam.html), it is heartening to hear that the iPhone / iPad applications are authorized by Apple before they are "Market"ed, preventing malicious code sneaking into your device.

I know there is many out there that may not agree with Apple's big-brother approach and the lack of flexibility!

Note: I'm an Android fan myself!!!
