Item 3 of the cool song list

"Tenu leke" from Salaam-E-Ishq

I really like these cathartic climax naach gaana type songs :)

Um, stuff

"If you take a life do you know what you'll give?
Odds are, you won't like what it is.
When the storm arrives, would you be seen with me
By the merciless eyes I've deceived?

I've seen angels fall from blinding heights,
But you yourself are nothing so divine;
Just next in line.

Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you.
The odds will betray you,
And I will replace you.
You can't deny the prize; it may never fulfill you.
It longs to kill you;
Are you willing to die?

The coldest blood runs through my veins;
You know my name."

-- The coolest song ive heard in the last month :), after "Aaj ki Raat" from Don. Whats the connection, u may ask, um, i dunno - i like both.

The amount of money i saved by switching to Skype for telephonic chit chat (for business ) from home & office - About 6500 - 9000 in the last month. More accurate estimates will show up from this month from my mobile bill.

Business concluded purely out of electronic introductions contact making / Googling / Skype conversations / Um, some old fashioned phonecalls :) as on date (Consolidated 12 months) - crossed USD 10,00,000 on 16 march 2007.

I tell my dad this morning how business with people abroad is simpler and almost purely based on resourcefulness / deal to deal competitiveness and your level of what is, as per my dad' lingo "Useness knowledge" :)

He, the disciple of diogenes that he is, mumbles something and walks away. Although i agree with him on some of the merits of a sound local customer centric business model complemented by what he calls 'exports'.

But the fact is the world has changed and fast. It is, more than ever, possible to understand and build good businesses around the needs of customers abroad - the nimbleness of an organization - from the top down to adapt to such changing rules of the game is important.

*yawn* lets see

Back to old ways

Hmm, after what,an year?, of proper sleeping & some attempt at work & getting a life iam back to the old ways:

Somnipathy (my patented term for inability to sleep), fretting, aimless googling, and hmm, blogging :)

I guess everyone's life goes through ups, downs and lean patches. Must fucken learn to cope and learn it fucken fast too

We'll see, wont we ?
