Hello Lenny.

May 04, 2007 01:50

So I moved to this old new place (closer to work - now I am one of those rare animals in Bengaluru that commute on foot), on April 1 (note the date), alone (but not lonely, though I miss my friends very much), but the Internet moved in about a month late. No one else's fault, actually - I just wasn't around when the technician showed up, and he didn't know my cell phone number. I would be busy on weekdays, and travelling or just plain lethargic on weekends. Besides, I really didn't expect them to act so fast. Finally, I called up a BSNL customer service center to check the status of my application, got redirected to and by several people several times, and eventually found the right officer in charge of such business. And I had the good fortune to be addressed "saar" by our comrades in ghorment, several times, in an otherwise regular day.

Well, what can I say. This humble citizen is extremely honoured. Someone calling me saar!

Meanwhile, when Debian Etch was released, when Lenny became testing, when Sam Hocevar was elected the new DPL, I've been living without television and newspaper, but hardly missing those, but muchly missing the Internet. (Damn grammar, yeah!) So apt-get dist-upgrade was the first thing to do, in addition to fetching the usual email and pr0n.

Well, what can I say. The new leader is way cool - check out his porn collection, for example. Check out his platform. So looking forward for this year in Debian.

And yeah, hello Lenny.

(In other news, the hungry traveller within is chained firmly onto the old trees of the mind, like the adivasi Karinthandan's ghost of Lakkidi - or Lakkidi's ghost of Lakkidi, maybe - in Wayanad. No Annapurna circuit for me, no Saurkundi Pass, no Nandadevi base camp. Sniff.)

sniff, random
