Well, its a new day...

Its a new day because yesterday was the old day....

Its a new day because this particular combination of date,month and year, according to the Gregorian Calendar or waddever it is that we use, has never occurred before..... and in the mm-dd-yyyy format, may occur 10000 years from today.... of course, assuming the human race lasts that long.. also assuming that the powers to be(human or inhuman) do not change the calendar system in anticipation of what can be termed as the y10K problem.... (imagine how much money can be made in the decade 9990-9999 A.D ;-) )

But, instead of looking that far, in the mm-dd format, this day will occur only in the next Olympic year. So for the next 3 years, nonadidecofebophobists will have relatively fearless years. Of course, nondidecofebophobists may have other phobias (avinashiyeroblogophobia for instance), but at least they one less fear in their lives to contend with. By my calculations, These nondecowaddeverists will hv a long fearless time during the turn of the next 3 centuries too... So my best wishes to them!! :)

As I type this, lotsa events are going on around the world (this is in no particular reference to leap years).. The preambled war is going on between the kids of India and Pakistan in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka is battling the awesome Aussies for the last time at their home ground this season... Man U has given up trying to catch up with Arsenal, and hv now started to prefer combating for 2nd place with Chelsea methinks!

Theres another important thing thats going on... that is the composition of this Blog!! :). .As a rule I dont write on Sundays... since this particular Sunday is special and I am not a nonadidecofebophobist, I decided to bend the rule a bit.... I aint breaking it.... am only typing instead of writing!! :)

My approach to a blog is simple, transalte my thoughts into words and type them out... I wish there were a data cable from my brain to my machine... the effort of typing can be saved... Scientists/Engineers/biophycisists/binoic experts... please see if u can do something about it.... and while u r at taking requests.... perhaps u could bundle the cable with a teleporter, and an optional time machine... I would be extremely obliged!! :)

Time travel is a topic that fascinates.. Its so fascinating that I may have to devote a whole week of blogs to the topic... One fine day I may start on this topic... and will probably go on and on and on and on.... but dont worry.... I will give the readers(if any!!!!!) advance warning... !!!

Thats abt it for today... by my usual lazy standards I do seem to hv written quite a lot.... so I will spare you anymore trouble!!!

Great... I am a blogger now...
All that remains is stuff to be put here.....!!!
Well, what do I put now??? Something that should hold the readers interest....
Well I am interesting enough, so mebbe my first postig should be about me...
Pyaare Bandhuon aur Bandhiyon, brothers and their sisters.... nanbargale, namaskar, good day and vanakkam to all of you...
I am Avinash Iyer.. the terrible pain-in-the-unmentionable-parts-of-the-body (clue this part of the body rhymes with CAS)... I am sure all who know me would acknowledge that fact.... but deep within this pain-in-the-CAS, lurks a good,decent guy.... Once in a while he surfaces... but what to do even this gd guy in inherently incorrigible at times... Must hv something to do with me!! ;)

Anywayz... I am a terribly (un?)witty, (non?)brainy, (kadi joke type)humorous chap who could suddnely switch from being a terribly painful guy to an oh-cho-chweet-cho-nich-of-you kinda chap within seconds... I love interacting with ppl and ppl dread interacting with me.... ;)
I can make an argument outta anything and a joke outta everything else.... I love arguing for the most idiotic things and hv been succesful in raising doubts in the firmest of believers...
I love India, Hindi movies, Indian Music, Mohd Rafi and Kishore Kumar (not necessarily in that order)... Above most of them I love the game of cricket
and the subject of mathematics....
I hate ppl who r something else, but show themselves as someone else. I hate Kumar Sanu, Osama Bin Laden, Godmen and environment destroyers (order is irrelevant here)..
Thats, in a nutshell, is me....
I hope this does make u ppl come back for more.... (if the more comes that is)..

This space is actually gonna consist of lotsa things that pass thro my head everyday.. I would select those things which can be translated into English/Tamil/Hindi words and put them here.... trust me my head has lotsa junk and it all needs some outlet... so here it is!! :)

So till the next time i make my presence felt.... bubyee.... and take care of yourself
