Just Another Blawg entry

It has been a long time... It has been 100 week days since my last blog entry. Yeah, I counted that. I double checked the same using Wolfram Alpha. Since, Google announced their OS, Microsoft intoduced Bing and my roomies are getting married.

In the mean time, I had my first ever promotion. Now I am the IBM's CEO...what? that is not true? just another senior engineer? My manager was talking to me as though he just gave me the CEO post. Hmm.. Still, I will take it. But not happy with the hike. Screw the recession.

Swine flu is rampant(?) even in Bangalore. Masked citizens every where. Yet to find a proper mask. It seems the N95 mask(mask? really?) is not effective against the virus. "Usage of these masks is like protecting against rain with an umbrella made of mosquito net."
