I was on the way in my bike from Parrys to my home. It was around 11 am and there was not much traffic. It would have took me less than 15 mins to reach R.A.Puram where there was absolutely chaotic traffic,and it took nearly 40 mins to reach Adyar from there. I looked around to see what was causing the traffic, and found out lots of colorful buses parked in the corporation ground(more commonly known as the koli pannai ground) near by. All these buses are from various districts of Tamilnadu.

This is not new to the city, In the past 6 months alone things like this happened some 4 or 5 times.So,why do these buses come to the city suddenly?

The reason could be found out just by having a glimpse of the buses, which were carrying the banners of the Chief minister and his Son, M.K.Stalin and flags in black and red was seen all over the place and i could see groups of men dressed in white dhothi and shirts standing here and there and chatting. The DMK Government has many times in the past brought thousands and thousands of men and women to the city,the sake being just to sit and hear their speech in a podhu kootam. What the fuck!

If they cant do any thing good to the people they should at least not cause hinder. The traffic police were not able to help, which is quite obvious. So will this kind of exasperation stop?

Only if the Lords of the secretariat start to think sensibly, will this madness be stopped.

I feel terribly sorry for those people using BSNL internet service,because i am a bsnl internet user myself(poor me).

The download speed is really cool,but they give me only 1gb of download. And for what they call the home plan 500.They provide 2gb of download limit and free downloads from 2am to 8am,come on i cant be awake up to 2am just for the sake of using the internet.And for every mb that goes beyond the download limit i am paying 90 paise(very annoying).

For this reason i am not able to update my blog every now and then and cant play CS online properly.

I am not a big fan of Tycoon games, one of my friend gave me this game disc. The newer version of the zoo tycoon claims that it has a lot of great features compared to its older version. Like themed buildings, photo mode option , easy terrain modification, 30 species of animals and many more. The campaign mode is nice but in course of time the game becomes more monotonous and you lose the interest of finishing the game.

The camera is not that good too,just goes side to side and zooms in and out which is very appalling.The few good things about the game is that you would get to know about many interesting facts about different animals, the background music is not that bad and you have control over absolutely every thing in the game and the graphics is really cool.

I have displayed some screen shots which i took while playing!

Since my father was suffering from a minor problem in his spinal cord. He got admitted in the Apollo hospital. So i spent the past 3 nights there in the hospital with my dad(Don’t query any thing about my father,he is fine).

For the 1st time in my life i came across Male Nurse. But i don’t think men will suite the job, it looks very awkward.I don’t have anything more to tell.

Give your views about this!!

I turn off my computer and leave my room and when i return back after half an hour or so, the computer is ON. Doesn’t it sound spooky?

I have been experiencing this problem for some time. But this doesn’t occur always, It happens once in every 5 shut down or so,where i leave my UPS turned ON. So these days i will have to wait, turn off the UPS and leave. No no,i don’t have any problem with turning off my ups and leave but why is this bizarre thing happening.

I just got a feeling that my comp got haunted

Does anyone knows what is going on? Any solutions ??

Orkut! The online social network formed by Google. Do you guys know that 72 percent of its 16 million users are from Brazil(astonishing).Lot of people on orkut used it to keep in touch with their friends and some of them constantly use to spam messages like,join this community-”5 star guys”,”vijay fan club”and “I like the dosa my mom makes”(wtf is wrong with these people).But Its just a great site to pass time and know whats happening around with our friends. And more over it was been declared as the youth icon of the year 2007. But the Brazilian prosecutors don’t understand that and ask Google to pay a $61 million fine as orkut has been used “to organize criminal activity and promote child pornography”. They also want information about the users. But Google protects the user information.Google has politely told that “we have obeyed all the judicial orders that requested we remove undue content. Some orders demanded that we turn over user information for investigation and we complied”.
