I don't get it.

Car owners to be offered up to $4,500 for 'guzzlers'

So you reward the dumbfucks who made the stupid decision of buying those gas guzzling vehicles in the first place. I simply don't get it, instead of giving tax rebates to the wise men you reward the stupid ones.

If any of you understand this please enlighten me on the motive behind this decision. I would be more than happy to listen to anything positive about it.

Me, myself

A lot of people have recently commented that I have changed a lot since they last met me or interacted with me, and the truth is I definitely have over the last 3 years or so. So let me define my new self here just to keep you people updated ( as if anybody from the past reads this blog :P), but still let me complete my responsibilities.

1. To begin with I am more interested in Mozart, Paul McCartney, Bach, Nicholas Hooper and so on than I am in Metallica, Tiesto or Slipknot.

2. I spend more time reading than I do chatting, socializing, driving, playing combined together.

3. I am single.

4. I cannot eat spicy food everyday anymore.

5. I have no problems staying awake for days at a stretch if its for programming.

6. I really really want to do a PHD from a good school, and I still may opt to enroll for it.

7. I am a strong believer of Murphy's Law.

8. Now I understand European movies, at least much more than before.

9. Evolution is the motto of life.

There are also some things about me which have not changed at all

1. F rule still applies :P, I am sure all the dudes reading this will understand well. Blonds still rule.

2. Favorite vacation destination is still GOA.

3. I am still a boy unwilling to give in.

4. I still am attracted to luxury like a moth to a flame.

5. I still am lazy.


Hope this helps.

Adios

A few standards I maintain in LIFE

Havent posted in a while so thought of making a close to meaning-less post.

Ever since I owned my first computing machine I have had the instinct to maintain a clutter free, beautiful, unique and practical desktop screen. Its been almost a decade of evolution on my machines and so has been in my taste to justify the above stated properties on my desktop screen.

My current desktop looks something like this

I get chills down my spine when I see a desktop with gazillions of icons each smaller than the bacteria residing on my fingers and I salute the people who have such desktops both for their laziness and their endurance to change.
