Live Free. Live Happy.

Men on earth die and go to heaven. God comes and says, "I want the men to form two queues one Line for the men who dominated their women, and the other one for the men who were dominated by their women. Also, I want all the women to go away so that no man and woman can talk."

Next time God comes back, the women are gone, and there are two lines. The line for the men who were dominated by their women is 100 miles long, and in the line of men who dominated their women there is only one man.

Ok. Here is a quick question - What do you offer to God if there are no fruits and no sweets at your home? Think ... think ... no idea? Here is what my sweet intelligent wife Veena had to offer:

Oh yeah, those are chocolates and they are not just any chocolates but Italian Ferrero Rocher. Now why didn't anyone think of this before? ;)

Recently a salesperson turned up at our office proposing to sell Kingston 32 GB pen drives for a very cheap price (Rs.1200 each). He claimed that he had stolen some of them from the port when the shipment arrived. We were not interested and so did not purchase any of them.

As soon as he left, we did a google for the actual price of Kingston 32 GB pen drive. What we came across was a large number of articles mentioning about fake 32 GB Kingston pen drives.

Integrating iJab with Roundcube is a good solution for having web based Mail+XMPP (jabber) client. Steps for configuring iJab can be found on its website. Here I shall mention how you can integrate both of them:

1. No one can ruin your day without YOUR permission.
2. Most people will be about as happy, as they decide to be.
3. Others can stop you temporarily, but only you can do it permanently.
4. Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have.
5. Success stops when you do.

6. When your ship comes in…. make sure you are willing to unload it.
7. You will never have it all together.
8. Life is a journey…not a destination. Enjoy the trip!
9. The biggest lie on the planet When I get what I want I will be happy.
10. The best way to escape your problem is to solve it.

Sharing a few thoughts for Would be Grooms

Rule No. 01 -
Never compare your mamma's cooking with your wife's. There is no faster way to dig your own grave than that.
Please understand that your mom's cooking has the backing of 20 odd years of experience... don't expect that from your wife whose hardly into the process. What if she were to compare your earning capacity with her dad's.. So shshshhhhh..!

Rule No. 02 -

A woman went to police station to file a report for her missing husband:

Woman: I lost my husband
Inspector: What is his height
Woman: I never noticed
Inspector: Slim or healthy
Woman: Not slim can be healthy
Inspector: Color of eyes
Woman: Never noticed
Inspector: Color of hair
Woman: Should be black
Inspector: What was he wearing
Woman: I don't remember exactly
Inspector: Was somebody with him ?????????

If the title of this post is making you wonder about the extraordinary act which my dad has performed today to make him a hero, then STOP! This is not about something which he did overnight. This is something which he has been doing consistently over the past three decades - a very simple act of charity but with dedication and sincerity.

Update Sep 14, 2010 - Yipee !!! My packages python-twisted-calendarserver and calendarserver have been accepted into squeeze after some persuasion from Guido and myself to the release team ;). And this is my QA page.

For more than a decade, I have been associated with free and open source software. I think I got introduced to it in my first year of engineering college. There has been no looking back since then.

What is Tension?

A beautiful girl asks lift from you. On the way she faints and you take her to hospital.

Doctor says ‘Congrats. You are going to become a father.’

THAT’S IT. YOU GET TENSED.

You say – ‘But that baby is not mine.’

Girl says – ‘he is only the father of my baby.’

YOU HAVE MORE TENSION.

Police comes and DNA test is done. Report comes. Which says that you can never become a father?

EVEN MORE TENSION FOR YOU.

Anyhow you thank God and return home. Then you think, “At home I have 2 kids. Whose are those?”
