Knee Happenings


After the correction to my brain

Well, I got to see the inside of my Knee as Dr.Joshi and croonies poked and worked it. People would say that it was a glimpse inside my brain - I would agree. :)

The death of Li Mu Bai

I saw the last part of CTHD on AXN again. Ang Lee has done a excellent job. Every time I see the movie I like it better. This time it was the death of Li Mu Bai which I saw. With his last breath he confesses his love for Yu Shu Lien and says he would prefer to be a ghost and be by her side all 7 days then to go to immortality...

... in return he gets to die in the arms of the one he loves.

As the night falls ...

Film city road, Gokuldham


As the night falls ... all have gone to bed. I lie awake to try to collect my thoughts. Watching the occasional cool breeze scattering them like a startled band of night sparrows ...

The anonymous lights of the city speak of a throbbing life. Life, which is calling. Where am I ?

The worst sentence on can serve is the one of constant uncertainty, insecurity and doubt. The freest one can be, is when one has no doubt, no fear. When one can be what one wants to be. When one can fly in the unbounded sky. When the smell of the wild flower can touch the heart. When the crystal drops from the heavens can reach inside and cleanse. When one can infect all around with - life.

Strings at Ruia

Strings, the band from Pakistan.

Strings, the band from Pakistan, came to Ruia. They are very talented performers. It was a very enjoyable performance - no natak no bhav. They just played liked they loved playing ... which they probably do. It came out rocking. They had the whole crowd jumping. It was very energtic. I loved it. Glad that I decided to go ...

wonders of modern technology


I am connected to 'agni' over ssh over VPN from my MBP. I am typing this from my MBP which is connected over encrypted 802.11g network to the HP nx8220 in a peer-to-peer connection. The HP nx8220 is connected to the net with a PCMCIA Reliance Mobile NetConnect card over a CDMA 1.0x network. HP nx8220 shares the net connection with the Mac with the Win XP SP2 internet sharing - which is basically NAT :). I can also connect from a Win XP SP2 I have running in a VM on the MBP OSX. I can also connect from a Debian Sarge Release 4 I have running in a VM on the MBP OSX.

"Bazically and all that" (hehe) this enables me to connect over a ssh tunnel to any of the running Allegro images with SLIME in Emacs and hot patch.

Cool no ? :)

p.s.
the photo is me working on the MBP. scary, eh?

You'r my best friend

Don Williams - You'r my best friend.

You placed gold on my finger you brought love like I've never known
You gave life to our children and to me a reason to go on
You're my bread when I'm hungry you're my shelter from troubled winds
You're my anchor in life's ocean but most of all you're my best friend

When I need hope and inspiration you're always strong when I'm tired and weak
I could (search this whole world over you'd still be everything that I need)
You're my bread (when I'm hungry you're my shelter from troubled winds
You're my anchor in life's ocean but most of all you're my best friend)
You're my bread (when I'm hungry you're my shelter from troubled winds
You're my anchor in life's ocean) but most of all you're my best friend

Slip

young fern

A minor slip can have major repercussions. hehe. Weather of the tongue or of the bike or other. I, sorta, have screwd my already screwed leg. Today did all the freking blood tests prior to surgery. The other day the MRI. That machine scared me.

Lets see how it all happens ... which of the 'breaks' heals faster. hehehe.

Moral of the story : If you wanna screw around, dont do it to your knee 'cause that's what you screw around on. hehehe
