the LOTR thread has just got out of hand. khorgath and achitnis having a serious war out here. update : The thread has gone a bit way too far. It reminds me of LIG. What started out as a simple review, turned out into a personal flame war. Even though I hate doing this, if this continues, I’d think I have to end the tread here. Remember : Its about people’s personal opinion. He/She has the right to have any kind of opinion. But pointing fingers is a bad thing to do.

Came early and got some decent work done. Am working on perl these days. This is my 1st hand in serious perl programming. Still having generic issues. ( khorgath, thanks for that help on perl )

been to LOFR in the evening with couple of office guys. Was really disappointed with the movie. The 1st half was good, but the second half was a real drag. Besides gonna have to wait for one whole year for the second part. 🙁

Been to KREC surathkal for the weekend to judge some software contest. Cant say it was fun , but got the much needed break from work. The college sucks… babes suck even more. I had to travel to another town to get decent dinner and breakfast. The only thing nice about the place was the beach. Will try to put up the snaps of the trip on my page soon. Came back today morning at 6 am. Am feeling dead sleepy now 🙁

its Friday evening… the office suddenly looks empty… why am I still stuck in office ???? The weekend does not look all that exciting too. might go to KREC for their fest there…

I dont know if mrinal knows this but his name got mentioned in Times of India today. check it out here (ack atul)

Check out this comic strip. believe it or not, this is an exact snapshot of my life almost an year ago. the guy with the glasses would be sush , the guy in the middle would be nandu. and ofcourse the red hat shirt guy would be me. In my college days, I would always wear linux T-shirts coz I had tons of them (used to get them free, and everyone used to crib about that). Nandu would always organize LAN parties and he only had a 8 port hub. I had a 24 port hub. So he would ask…

was searching the web for pseudo random number generators, and came across this link. They claim to generate a true random number.

well nothing much from me in the past 2 days. will get more about today from sush’s journal
