Of Catalan Devils and the Gunners

Across the pale parabola of joy

Sitting at home and being able to finish off quite a few issues with work and then to be able to sit back and relax at home in a dark room listening to Floyd was one of the cheap thrills in life . Was up late last night hacking on the monster that the GNU tools are and having fun at that and watching Barcelona come up trumps against Arsenal. Was a pity that Thierry Henri could not finish off the catalan devils but with Arsenal leading 1-0 at half time i thought half the battle was won. It was remarkable the way Barca came back to trump the Gunners from London. Now looking forward to the big thing , the event of this year would be the World Cup which is just around the corner. Parts of Pune don't have ESPN because of issues between the cable operators and ESPN in terms of license fees . My cable subscriber does though provide ESPN so its alright to now look forward to an invasion from friends who can't get to see ESPN in their areas.

Life though is good otherwise but sitting alone at home is slowly losing its charm , and being a compiler geek enables your social life to be a total zero with the result that friends you thought were bosom buddies think that you no longer exist !
