Little Johnny Wants to Settle Down!!!

Little Johnny and Little Lisa are only 10 years old, but they know that they are in love. One day they decide that they want to get married, so Johnny goes to Lisa's father to ask for his blessing.

Johnny : Mr. Jones, me and Lisa are in love and I want to ask you for your blessing.
Mr. Jones : Well Johnny, you're only 10. Where will you two live?
Johnny : In Lisa's room.
Mr. Jones : Why in Lisa's room? Why not yours?
Johnny : It's bigger than mine and we can both fit there nicely.
Mr. Jones : Okay then how will you live? You're not old enough to get a job.
Johnny : Hmmmm...
Mr. Jones : How will you afford food and rent?
Johnny : With our allowance. Lisa gets 5 bucks a week and I get 10 bucks a week. That's about 60 bucks a month, and that should do us just fine.

By this time Mr. Jones is realizing that Johnny has put much thought into this. So, he thinks for a moment trying to come up with something that Johnny won't have an answer to.

Mr. Jones : Johnny, it seems like you've got everything all figured out.
Johnny : Yes I did.
Mr. Jones : I just have one more question for you.
Johnny : What is it?
Mr. Jones: What will you do if the two of you should kids of your own?
Johnny (shrugging his shoulders) : We've been lucky so far.

Mr. Jones faints.

The King of Pop, MJ.

King of Pop, Michael Jackson is no more. He died of Cardiac Arrest on 25th June, 2009. He was 50. The whole music world is in shock and so am I. Though he was surrounded by lot of controversies, he is a legend. The King of Pop.

I still remember when he toured India and his album History came out. I asked my dad to buy me the cassette and my father said.. "What is there in it? He's just shouting and we can' even understand what he's singing." It was 120 Rs. in those days (Well was in India then and 120 was a lot of money in those days). And of course there was no Internet for free download... :).... Anyhow I ended borrowing the cassette from my friend and listening to it.. and it was just awesome.

His performance at the MTV awards in 1996 was the best I ever saw and I can't comment on his moonwalk. Even words are too less for the act. He is one of his kind. The Legend. The world will miss the great pop singer and his moon walk. I dedicate this post to the greatest Pop singer of all times. MJ may your soul rest in peace. The world will miss you.

Here is the video of his album History teaser....

Srikar's 1st B'day

Today is Srikar's first birthday. We decorated the house with ribbons and balloons. Srikar cut the cake in the evening and we all wished him best wishes on his B'day. We didn't celebrate it in a grand way because he recently had surgery and we don't want him to feel stressed. To know Srikar better check his blog here.

Many Many Happy Returns of the day Srikar. Happy Birthday. Wish you all the happiness in the world.

My Phone, iPhone (OS 3.0)

Well well well.. The long awaited iPhone OS 3.0 is out.. I had to try for a long time installing it on my iPhone.. but it was giving me the same error again and again.. "Servers are unavialabe. try again later.. blah blah blah... " So tried again and again.. but didn't work.. So some how my internet got disconnected.. and suddenly I saw on my laptop it was installing... So by some network trick.. my iPhone got upgraded..

So the trick is .. if while updating ur iPhone to OS 3.0 it says that servers are not avilabe just disconnect your internet connection.... it works... but remember you have to disconnect your internet only after you click update in ur iTunes.. Once you do this.. your iPhone is all ready with the new OS 3.0..

So whats so good about this OS 3.0.... The best feature is ofcourse the copy and paste option which was missing all this time.. The other one is the voice recording.. now that is also a cool feature that is added to the iPhone.. The new address book is good... the call history is different.. you can now see the dialed called and received calls in a different way.. better than before.. hmm.. what else? oh ya.. another cool feature.. you can now shuffel while playing your songs just by shaking your iPhone.. cool ain't it..

So over all the new OS 3.0 is good.. But anyway my contract is getting over in another 2 - 3 months.. I am eyeing the new iPhone 3gS.... hopefuly I will buy that one...

My Social Networks and Blogs

With so many social networks around I remember the first time I opened an account in Orkut. I always felt its waste of time for creating so many accounts in so many different networks like myspace, facebook, Hi5, etc..., etc.... I still get requests from my friends to join these networks but never felt like joining these networks. I feel its too much effort to open so many accounts in every network.. My friends say facebook is good.. and so is myspace.. but I never had interest in them.. only orkut is the social network which I use... here's my profile link from orkut.. Click Here.

Now regarding blogs.. when I first came to know about blogs... I thought as I don't have a lot of writing skills.. why bother... but opened an account any how.... well comes along with your gmail account so whats the harm.. first few days... full posting in the blog.. then in the middle... total stop.. then again I don't know what happened... seeing some blogs online.. I really felt I write much better... thus this blog... which is more frequent now a days..

Recently I also stated another blog.. its called "My Photo Blog." Well its not exactly my photos.. :) but it will also contain the pictures of places I have been too.. ... ;)..... its just a fun blog.. with more funny pictures I find online.. or pictures that come to me in emails.. Click Here... Viewer Discretion is Advised.. lol :P

So one day I was watching news and on Larry King saw that Aston Kutcher crossed a million followers on twitter..I was amazed.. WTF is twitter?? So went to twitter website... tried to figure out what twitter is.. 140 characters is too less I thought.... and finally I have a twitter account too.. To follow me just Click Here... Twittering if fun.. just login when you want and just type whats going on.. its just that simple.. Although I have just 10 followers right now, Hopefully I will have a million followers one day... lol....

So another year over... I got a year older... And what have I achieved... hmmm... well I won't say nothing but not up to the mark.... Anyway hope this year brings happiness to me.... (I thought that last year too but didn't work out the way I wanted)...

So was at my brother's place for this b'day... He is still at school.. So was thinking about my b'day when I was at Arlington. Remembered those days with cake on the face, coke on the hair, buttermilk, milk, sauce, mustard paste, eggs, tomatoes, oh my god.. oh forgot the main thing.. After everything thrown into the swimming pool... Well that was all not there this time... Just a little cake to my cheeks this time.... :)

Well my brother is a rich guy.. So he gave me a 1000 bucks for my B'day and also a Old Navy gift card. Thanks bro.... So I cut a nice chocolate cake, which is my favorite... and his room mates and a couple of his frnds from other rooms came... All were cracking jokes.. Was feeling good.. Was just like the times when I was in school..

I was just thinking where was I for the last five b'days....
2008 - Was in Plano, Tx.. My brother came to my place..
2007 - Was in California. Didn't cut a cake this year.. Don't know why..
2006 - Was at school... BT-218... Miss those days...
2005 - Was at Tirupathi, India.. Lucky me..
2004 - Well no clue.. forgot where I was...

5 resolutions I want to take from this b'day..
1. Get a Job... (Too long on bench..)
2. Buy a car.. (Ferrari.. anybody buying??)
3. Reduce weight.. (But how??)
4. Think more about my life than others..
5. Get married before 30.. hehehehe.. :)

I don't know how many of above I can accomplish.. Lets see.... ;)

In the end I wish myself a very very Happy Birthday!!!
