no-work-tuesday

woke up early, and decided i didn't wanna do any work, so promptly went back to sleep.. did eventually get up and finish up debugging the goddamn comp.. had gotten infected by the 'coolwebsearch' spybot.. had to go through the registry weeding out the regitsry entries.. damned trojan hijacks your web-browser and makes its own search engine the homepage..spoke to the landlord today.. he will give us 33 heath for the same rent.. niiice!! we should be inking that deal soon (touch-wood).. and that is one helluva party-house, perfect distance from everything - everything that matters that is: On The Run, Third Base, Kenmore Liquors, Tops, Aldi.. did i miss anything people? is anyone holding their breath waiting for me to say school??? hehehehe!!

started work on my webpage on the engineering website.. www.eng.buffalo.edu/~smittra .. i will need to learn a hefty bit of html and stylesheets to make it look even half decent!!

latvia gave the underdog-supporters something to cheer about, but czech republic's experience told as they came back to win 2-1; nedved is one helluva playmaker.. watching the holland-germany game was weirder than yesterday.. the audio track was 2:32 behind the video!! even the soccernet scoreboard was faster than the audio.. so it was kinda cool as i could tell who was getting substituted even before the bbc boys knew!! ;-) it did look like a nice, open game, ending 1-1: not what you would expect from these two teams!! the german youth brigade looks awesome, the next world cup in germany in 2006 should be good for them - schweinsteiger, kuranyi, ernst, lahm..

finally finished watching 'hey ram'.. it's an epic!! quite an eye-opener on indian history though.. does anyone know if it's a true story?? the pistons nailed the coffin and sent the lakers packing today 4-1.. wow, what were the odds!! my heart goes out to malone and payton.. passing up the big bucks for the championship ring, and yet it eludes them..

the plans seem to be falling in place for a massive RSF reunion in early august.. shiv will be back from his internship in amazon, and will most likely be making it to buffalo around 11th aug; arul should be landing here on 1st aug and ranj will be here around then too - pinku better get his hirsute personality up here then too!! spoke to smi today too after ages.. her parents left today after a whistle-stop US tour.. could i have the niagara falls pics?! don't worry about that f**king advisor, just give me his name and i shall add him to the database of "desi-profs-in-US-who-are-asshole-advisors-stringing-you-along".. justice shall be served to them too honey!!
