Blog shifted

Posted by Shashank

My blog has shifted to
http://neothebrute.blogspot.com
which the old-timers would remember was my first blog. Yeah so I’m returning to that finally, and this blog is to be shut-down. There are a lot of irritating problems with this awardspace domain, and I simply don’t have the time to run around testing other hosts and dealing […]

Ahh.. what a wish, I really wish I could do that for a couple of days more, like I’ve been doing for the past 12 days of my vacation.

I just hit upon this site (nicecupofteaandasitdown.com). I really […]

God bless keyboards, especially at times when the mice decide to go on a hunger strike. I’m sick and tired of wireless mice, and am half inclined to walk right tomorrow and purchase an ordinary optical mouse. […]

Don’t panic!

Posted by Shashank

Well, this blog is new, and often I’m tinkering around “under the hood”, i.e. messing around with the blog code, so if you see a red “Under maintainance” sign, and wierd stuff happening to your window, and Vogons announcing the demolition of this miserable little planet, please don’t panic: This means that I’m alive and […]

Swim-lessons Saga: Part I

Posted by Shashank

From my old blog, posted on 20th May, 2006
I planned to write a post about how I almost drowned in the deep end yesterday, but then thought it something too trivial and stupid to post, but then decided that since this was sorta like a personal blog, and since I didn’t care if people read […]

This is from my old blog, posted on 13th May, 2006
Yeah, today was my first swimming lesson, and by the end of the one hour session, I was lazily floating across the pool like a corpse, humming Feuer Frei! by Rammstein and re-playing VH1-MTV’s Midnight Headbanger’s Ball in my head. That’s the only neat thing […]

GOing in Boeing!

Posted by Shashank

Just recounting some experiences of a morning last year.. when I was fooling around inside the New Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport, and I ran into some unexpected expected trouble.
Before anything, I must complain about the names that our airlines have been taking.. we started out with Indian Airlines and Air India. Now we […]

Me and my BIG Mouth

Posted by Shashank

Okay I have a problem keeping my mouth shut. Succeed most of the time, but often fail causing some rather stupid pain-in-the-necks.
This post is inspired by yet another blabbering-mouth thing, this time in frustration at what I like to call soft-spam. Hard-spam is like that unsolicited XXX kind of messages or “Buy This!” type things […]

Evolution of Peace

Posted by Shashank

Well, I’m not a believer in finding a moral reason for things, there are always logical reasons for things. Peace too has a logical reason. Early cave-men depended on violence to survive, even in their own communities. But it made logical sense not to kill people who would trade with you, nor did it make […]

My B’day

Posted by Shashank

Incidentally, it so happens that it is (or was) my birthday. As I write this post, its 2:22 AM, so technically it *was* my birthday yesterday. Anyhow, I finally came about setting up my own website, and my own wordpress blog hosted on this free domain that seems good. I hated ASP hosting services anyway, […]
