FIFA '09

Well I ain't a generic fan of games on PC , but i'd love to announce that i just got myself the EA Sports - FIFA '09 and ..... its ..... GREAT !!!!!

Seriously , its just too good ... With the all new option of manually placing your passes and runs with the mouse control is just brilliant ... Its the first time i ever liked such a game on any console other than the ps2 ... Have a buy !!! It won't disappoint you ... :D

DaMn ThEsE eXaMs !!!

Its Mon Nov 24 19:24:21 IST 2008 and i've just logged in to while away some time off my studies ... I'M TIRED !!!!!

No wonder the most popular online forums in our country have the title on the lines of - 'I Hate Our Education System' .... :P

Exams get over and I find myself already burdened with the preparation for my next volley of exams ... Its the same old story as always !!! Don't know why i haven't got used to it yet ... :)

So i've bought myself some nice time off today coz tomorrow's just a practical !!! ;) ... But have to give an extra assignment tomorrow to cover up for the previous marks and the low attendances (i get such oppurtunities being Riteek , you see ?? :D )

Anyways , the TODAY'S FORTUNE tab on my orkut home page shows - " The person who reads your fortune has just been fired. Good luck anyways !!! "

Will catch you guys later with some content-filled posts ... 

Till then ,

Take care .....

Ubuntu Easter Eggs

Heyyy ... I'm back !!!! This time i've come loaded with great Ubuntu secrets (many of them are owed to Mr. Devesh "DeBeSsSs" Rai)

So ...
1.To begin with , here's how to open the book of mozilla :
In the URL of your Firefox browser , key in "about:mozilla" without the quotes and you'll be taken to the page 1/3 of the Book of Mozilla , which otherwise from Internet Explorer would have redirected to a wonderfully bright BSOD :P ...

2.Open the terminal and run the following and enjoy the responses :
a. apt-get moo
b. aptitude help
c. aptitude moo
d. aptitude -v moo
e. aptitude -vv moo
f. aptitude -vvv moo
g. aptitude -vvvv moo
h. aptitude -vvvvv moo
i. aptitude -vvvvvv moo

3. Press alt+f2 under GNOME, and type in "free the fish" (without the quotes) in the application and see what happens. :D

4. Again press alt+f2 and then type in "gegls from outer space" (without the quotes) and enjoy the game of sapce invaders but with an exception - the game is played with cows !!!! :)

So , enjoy these for now .... will try to bring you more easter eggs soon ...

THIS IS IT ............................................

5 hours left for the lights to illuminate one final time this year and mark the start of the Brazilian Grand Prix - 2008 which rounds off the wonderful season we've had (and without sounding too reflective on the season - i would want to mention that The Drivers' Championship is still open !!! :D)

20 drivers , 10 constructors , 71 breathtaking laps comprising 306 kms of driving on this beautiful 4.31 km long Sao Paulo Circuit in Brazil ...

This is THAT-KIND-OF day for which F1 lovers reschedule meetings, appointments, dates just to watch the action one final time before a break of nearly 5 months (the next race would be on the 29th of March{WOWW !!!} in Melbourne)

So whatever you do , wherever you are just DONT MISS THIS !!!!!
