N0 work i5 gud

Time really flies when you are free.
After a long time i was browsing thru my mails and found this joke that I recvd from a friend. Its
old but what the heck, it still manages to bring a smile on to your face.

CHEMISTRY EXAM

The following is supposedly an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some ariant. One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.

As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, " it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you, and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over.
The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A"

Is this surreal ?

I can't believe it's happening. I am ... I am ... blogging again. Within a few dayz' time !!!!
Now that management is off my shoulder (at least for the time being), moi thinks I better
get used to this grreat feeling.
If Saturday was good, then Sunday was even better :)
Went to Pondicherry for Venu's wedding. It was a good experience (& I m not talking about the booze).
This former french 'enclave' - subsequent UT - and now state, retains some of its old world charm.
The place is decidedly cleaner then chennai. And the local people seem to be quite used to having
non-locals amongst them. Funny thing I noticed was the cap of the traffice cop. It rose like a 3-inch tower and made the guy look more like a French Gendarme then a regular cop in laid-back Pondi.
Quite a few shops had Tamil names followed by English names followed by ... french of course.
Even though this was my second trip this must range as a much better one.
But the best part was the traditional telugu wedding. Its not much different then a regular north
indian one, but the traditional music is much better then the god-damn Mohan Bands that one
finds in Delhi.

Damn this job

sigh. its that time of the month again.
when i get to update my poor little blog. (what were u thinking ????)
i used to hate management work 100%. but after
the recent stint in Production Issues, i think my opinion has changed.
now i hate it 200% :(

thanks Jesus H Christ, Amit is taking over from monday.

neways, happy dayz r here again as i move into the new adventure called .NET
and it starts appropriately... with a trip to MayaJaal :)

this is also "that" time of the year, when i get to know how many peanuts more i will take home from oct. GAWD .... i can't wait :P
