Orkut Spat

My First spat on Orkut. it all started out with me visiting my friend's community "The Radicals"

http://www.orkut.com/Community.aspx?cmm=22725242

So I scrapped a few criticisms about the Aims. The first time he was nice and cool. When I made a more detailed criticism, he got annoyed and banned me. No problem actually cause i've got another ID and if he bans that too, then another and ad infinitum. But lets see what he says.

Anti Climatic Comedy

The time:10:25 P.M. I was just about to start eating when...There's a knock at the gate.The Watchmen were outside saying that they thought they saw someone in the bushes but they had omitted to bring their torch so could we lend them one. Now our torch doesn't work and we told them so, and sent them to our,well...not next door, but neighbour. Mission Bring Torch Failed. They don't have a torch. So me and my dad decided to go with them and examine the matter. Guess what? The "Man' was actually some dogs feasting on the junk dumped after the afore mentioned party. What an Anti-Climax.

The Party

Some friends of me mom were annoyed that we hadn't invited them to a party to show them our new house. So mom decided to invite them over today. First we had to spruce up the house, order chairs, arrange chairs,etc,etc... The big day finally dawned, with me wishing I was a thousand miles away ;-) . So the guests started arriving, I hooked up with a couple of friends and managed to while away the time. There was an emergency when one ofthe guests car had a breakdown near our house while coming and we had to go and tow the car to our house. later after lunch all the men, decided to go and see if we could repair the car(I'm obviously including myself among the men) We couldn't. So called the mechanic. He said he's coming in half an hour. I don't know which clock he follows but he turned up after 2hrs and a lot of phone calls. After coming he tinkered around with the engine, declared that the fan belt was cut and it needed to be taken to the garage. After that i sorted the rubbish in the house(plates and cups) and dumped them some place away. We got some nice presents including a carpet, a set of 3 casseroles, a mobile holder, a set of 6 glasses and various other presents. What a day!!!

I've Installed Doom 3

They said:-"Doom 3 won't run if You don't have a Graphics card". I told them :-"Is zat zo? Sez You." I've just been playing Doom 3 and guess what...I don't have a graphics card.Only an IGP which is really crap. So don't you believe it when they tell you that You won't be able to play Doom 3. Sure You'll have to turn off all the eye candy but did you install it to play it or ogle at it?

We Tried to screw dataone...

Well, The ISP that most of my friends and I use is BSNL's Dataone. We decided "lets take one Unlimited Plan and share the costs." Today we tried to see if one can login from two or more places at the same time. Unfortunately We can't. I'm going to see if I can find some method of doing this. If we manage to do this, well.....Dataone's in for a hell of a loss. ;-)

Orkut's catching on here

Orkut's getting real popular here in School. Earlier it used to be a couple of people....Maybe. Now everyday a couple of more people join the group. And they are online a lot too. Wierd, this sudden Orkutting fad. It'll wear off but I personally prefer IM. It's way easier to talk using IM but Orkut is great for making friends.

Something About Me

This Should Have Been the first post but eh who cares. So here goes:

I am a nice, superb, intelligent person who is unbelievably talented. Oh and I can lie with a poker straight face. Jokes Apart I'm still in High School(going to complete it) and I plan to go for Computer Science. Let's See What Happens.
