moving out

hey!
I am moving 'afterthoughts in black' to another domain. It's been a pleasure to have blogged at blogger.com, but I guess this is where I 'll be calling it quits. I am currently working on a blog powered by wordpress.
I would like to thank all my loyal readers, actually my only loyal reader, whoever you are (my RSS feed count is 3) since I've subscribed twice, whoever the other reader is, I sincerely thank you and hope that you will subscribe my new blog as well.
Shall post details about my new website ASAP.

How to be single and feel great on Valentine's Day

This is the only time of the year that everything... right from NDTV to the Newspapers have something to say about love.
The 37.1% of the population (orkut statistics for single users) have nothing much to do and may get this wrong notion that people celebrating Valentine's Day are a happy bunch (lol)

Here's a scene from 'Everybody hates Chris'

Vodafone mistakes me....for Vijay Mallya?


What would you do if you were given an opportunity to pick between Katrina and Priyanka?
Vodafone sent me a SMS before new year, giving me some rather tempting options for New-Year. No; I didn't reply to them, having received Pamela Anderson messages for the last 2 years has only made me wiser.
I planned to spend the evening with COA, (not to be mistaken for Goa). COA is one of third semester subjects for Computer Engineering Students. Again I couldn't stick with my plans and ended up watching Armaggedon on Zee Studio instead.
BTW Happy New Year!
