Gripe for the day – all tea and no coffee makes Mani a dull boy ?!?
Well, I think I know when I am licked
so, to quote PG Wodehouse

Many greetings to you!
Many greetings to you!
Many greetings, dear stranger,
Many greetings,
Many greetings,
Many greetings to you!
Many greetings to you!
To you!

Hallucination = a working system

3:27 PM
As corporations get larger, why do networks get slower?

07/22/2002 3:01 PM
Matt, my fish , thinks I have gone nuts – can I throw a rock at my monitor?

2:48PM
..and life , as we know it, became one large goop ball. Coffee, pleeeease …….

07/03/2002 8:00 AM

..and life goes on. I actually did get to sleep last night – or was it more that I passed out as soon as I parked and walked in the door? Who knows – more so, who cares? I am rested, now.

9:45 AM

Good morning, world! Coffee, anyone?

11:57 AM

and one more project meeting later, I qoute Hugh Prather –

a) I have the choice of being right or being human
b) There is no such thing as “best” in a world of individuals

12:11 PM

Interests change. Friendship based on mutual interests is doomed. Real friendship is an unshakable faith in what was once truly seen, no matter how recently or long ago.

I want to get drunk
and hide in my solitude
Away from prying eyes
and the judgmental

I want to tell myself that I’m special
that I’m good
Shades of paranoia fill
the dark brown coffee I drown in
Gray skies or blue
when I look the sky tells me what my world must be
if I don’t look out at the world
it can be whatever I want it to

Time is irrelevant
life is just a series of tasks
One by one they are done
and time passes

Adam met Eve, and the world was born – or so they tell me. So then where did the monkeys, giraffes, foxes, rats and lice come from? Ideas, anyone?

God for sure has a sense of humor. Else, someone explain GetAccess to me.

..my current cup of coffee is done – so back to work for now.

09/18/2001 – Okay the markets are somewhat down – but not to worry – the same Great Spirit that put together this wonderful country will bring them right back – stronger that before!

On a more mundane note – I DESPERATELY need a haircut…

09/11/2001 – Oh my God! – they brought down the World Trade Center – using planes as BOMBS! Is nothing holy to these nuts, who ever they are? No God prompted these actions – hell, even the Devil Himself would be hard put condoning these acts!
I so wish that the evil brain who thought up these acts could be made to rebuild the Towers – brick by agonising brick – with his own hands – and then have him/her and their entire parentage and progeny serve the populace using the towers for ever more!

09/07/2001 – Someone explain why salesmen should be called anything good – all they care about is to wipe their offerings off you and walk with the cash. For all the tall claims about customer satisfaction and …….., what customer and what satisfaction ? My recent exchange with the folks I bought my car from , Leo Kaytes in Warwick, NY , left me convinced that despite all the good things I have told people about them, in the ultimate analysis, they are just another average car dealership with average service – the accolades stack up only when they work for them…

I really need to spend more time with the kids…..
