08-08-08 : Kewl date, aint it?

Hi there!

I somehow managed to squeeze through my busy schedule and drop in here to write this post! So as to mark 08-08-08 on my cute lil blog (lyk as if its gonna bring me luck!:))

Ordinary people like me wouldn’t care if its 08-08-08 or 09-09-09 or whtever! its for those wierd people out there, who think that a date that arises from the human creation (Calendar) is a miracle, a lucky day, n bla bla… I rather feel at peace believing its all in God’s hands!

Open up any news channel (atleast the Indian ones), and you will find them all filled with Astrologers and Pundits talking to their viewers about this great LUCKY DAY!

“Any marriage that takes place today will be blessed and lucky!”

“Its a very lucky day to propose your dream-guy/gal”

“It is an auspicious day for starting some work!”

HaHaHa…watching/listening to them makes me laugh!! Does a simple date (tht comes frm a calendar created by the mortal humans) really bring in LUCK? Gimme a break!

All that reminded me of the scenario a year back – on 07-07-07! The saammmeee old stories of Astrologers, the saaammeeee old theories of Luck on such a day!! Hah! These media people need something or the other to blabber about! There should be a limti!

Speaking of limits…today, I heard a friend say tht the Olympics 2008 inaugration ceremony was to be held on 08-08-08, all the more, at 8:08:08 (PM i suppose)!! (Lyk as if thts gonna save them frm quakes!)

Thas all fr now…. be kind enuff to lemme know abt any other thngs happening tday!!

Is ‘FISH’ = ‘GHOTI’ ?

“There are times when English can be an International Blunder” ~ a teacher of mine has said it truely indeed! lol

+ Pronounce the word ‘Enough’ -> here ‘F’ is ‘GH’

+ Pronounce the word ‘Women’ -> here ‘I’ is ‘O’

+ Pronounce the word “Foundation’ -> here ‘SH’ is ‘TI’

Now, Replacing the letters in ‘FISH’ with the above mentioned subtitutes, we get

=> GHOTI

So, Hence Proved that ‘FISH’ = ‘GHOTI’

Or have I gone barmy? lol (when your brain has nothing else to do, its never bad to think stupid!:)

NotePad gone batty?

Hey ppl!

If you’re bored and do not have anything else in mind to do, play around with your pc!

1) Open an empty “.txt” file with notepad (a new file recommended)

2) Type – “Bush hid the facts” or “John hid the facts” (without the quotes)

3) Save it. Then Open it again.

4) What do you see?

Isn’t it a blunder?! Can anyone explain why this happens so?

What problem does Windows have with CON?

I had found this somewhere on the internet.

Its really strange and no one could answer why this happens.

Try creating a folder named “con” – and guess what – You can’t!! Not even with DOS!!

What could be the reason behind this? If you do come to know by any chance, drop me a hint!
