Wonderful humor from Apple


Amazing humor from Apple!! This is an image used to represent any PC server across the network in Leopard, releasing 10/26/07.

If I were Microsoft, I'd be happy that the blue-screen-of-death, this piece of legend - albeit an unwanted one - is something that my rival considers important enough to showcase in its latest and greatest operating system.

Now this is what I call Cricket!!

Quite simply, breathtaking!!

It's not for nothing that Michael Holding was known as "Whispering Death"... Oh, the Windies!! They were a joy to watch, even if it was your own team getting whipped, as all other teams quite often did :-)

The commentator makes the most apt statement - "...and the unfortunate batsman was Geoff Boycott". Enjoy!!


Commiserations to the affected residents of California

The tragedy and suffering of the people affected in California wild fires can only be imagined by those of us safe from this wrath of nature. Not only does it make us realize how fortunate those of us are who haven't had to face such furies, but also teaches us a valuable lesson that we cannot grow greater than the very Mother Nature that encompasses us at all times and provides us such a beautiful and safe planet to inhabit.

My heart goes out to the affected people of CA, as also the millions that face Mother Nature's furies all over the world every year. I sincerely hope that such occurrences are not used by power-hungry politicians to gain political mileage in any way, but that everyone does the best they can to protect and provide relief to their constituents.
