Politically Incorrect: Inflation

The prices of essential commodities and foodstuff keep rising each day. As stocks falter and markets fluctuate, what could be a best investment in these difficult times?

Google Wave does not work on Opera 10

The hottest thing on the Internet right now, Google Wave unfortunately does not work on Opera.
It works with Firefox, Chrome and Safari though.

Speaking of Google Wave, it is a field demonstration in the sheer power of AJAX technology. The user interface, response and design is simply perfect. Its very intuitive and futuristic. It illustrates the potential for web applications in the future.

A "wave" is basically a train of thoughts or ideas, that are constructed with text, images and other media. It consists of such messages sent back and fourth between a group or "participants". Its sorta hard to explain in words. You really need to see it for yourself.

Does it revolutionize communication? Thats hard to say right now, especially since the people I communicate with are not on it! But that said, the idea is marvelous and definitely holds potential.

Facebook governs your life.

Look what I found!

I am not going to write too much and just let the awesomeness of the video do the talking:



Yes folks, thats an Elvis - Sinatra Duet!

If you are not a Elvis/Sinatra fan, then sorry to get you excited. P:

Happy Halloween

,

Kids today are no longer scared of headless scepters, ghouls, goblins, etc.
The range of factors responsible for this vary from: the Internet, cheap Hollywood special effects, rational approach to life, and the loss of innocence, to rap music and video games. :D

Whatever the cause may be, its time to put the scare back into Halloween. So presenting my Politically Incorrect, modernized Halloween costumes.

Note: Guns, grenades and booze-drug cocktails sold separately.

My apologies to Britney Spears fans but quite honestly, you have to agree, she's scary. And Ex-Fans, if you are looking for someone who looks good and sings great try: Linda Ronstadt or Michelle Branch.

Which one looks better? The colored version or the original?

Obama declares swine flu national emergency

Our favorite Nobel laureate has declared swine flu to be an emergency. Hmm, that was fast.

Injured Pigeon

I found this injured pigeon on the pavement. Was probably hurt by a Diwali firecracker. It wasn't able to fly,
all it could do was scamper under cars for cover.

I felt bad that I could not do anything to help it.

Inside Me



My Xray plates came it this afternoon. Looks cool doesn't it?

The repost says that I have a "small left pleural effusion". Thats totally awesome because now I don't have to use layman terms like "sick" or "unwell". I have a 'pleural effusion' baby!

You know, when people go, 'Shaunak, what happened to you?'. I don't have to give a stock lame reply anymore. I can state 'I am suffering from a trivial case of left pleural effusion' and enjoy the look of plain frustration on other person's face. And in their heads they are going like "What on earth does he mean? Why cant he just be unwell like all the other kids?"
