Terminals and I

Strange title eh? But oddly enough, quite fitting, since the last few days, whatever machine I touch, happens to develop a bug! May it be my server, the client, the laptop or the terminals at the Bank. Speaking of which, I just returned from bonny ol’ ABN, having dragged my

Microsoft OneCare Perpetual Beta

It has indeed been a long time coming. But today I joined the “elite” a OneCare Beta tester for life! To what do I owe the honor? I guess it was filing bug reports and being active in the MS community. I really do feel happy for this, even though

Massacre at VT

Still shell shocked, but so relieved that all my friends at VT are doing well. The hours pass as I keep myself glued to the TV screen watching the coverage from VA. Unbelievable, senseless, and so infuriating are some of the adjectives that pop into mind, with this massacre that

Fare-thee-well o Dell

April 10th, 2007, a date which shall live in infamy. So spake Tim the noble words. Well, not so much. But indeed a day to mourn, for this is the day that I bade farewell to my companion of 5 years, my noble Dell Inspiron 8200. I sit here in

Goodbye, Farewell and Amen

Very little progress on the health-front I am afraid. The bug seems to have fallen for me, ever so truly, madly, deeply. Argh. I am still unable to speak due to the soreness of me throat, but that stops me not from eating frozen yoghurt – O Timothy, wherefore art thou

Monday, Bloody Monday

Poetic license, had to change some in the original title of the song, from Sunday to Monday! The OU is back in full swing on the first day of the week again, and to kick things off this morning we had the OTEC plenair, the first for this year. Unfortunately

Shopping and all that

Well, here we go again, has been a while since I updated the blog. Not due to lack of interest, but rather the lack of developments the past few days. Got the feedback for my first draft from my supervisor, and indeed, the points made are valid and acting upon

Happy Birthday Bro!

Happy Birthday lil Brodemio! Happy 19th m8! Ah the celebrations that must be in order this evening, make me wish I were back home to celebrate with the lil’ one! Me bro sounded ever so happy on the phone as I rang him up 00:00 IST. Idiot, he was

Journal articles and all that

Phew what a day this has been. How great is it, to sit down, and relax, knowing that the deadline you’d set for yourself this day, has been met, and then some? This was a day replete with fevered writing spells and worry over the short breaks I did
