Old year, New Year, Resolution, PJ etc.

Well, so another year(2007) passed away surreptitiously. And a new year has arrived . In fact, 3 days of the new year have already passed. Now I don't want use that old cliche, how time flies (I have used it anyways :-) !

With new year comes its traditional companions like "New Year Resolution" etc. To be true, I have mixed feelings about it: on one hand I have this firm belief that you don't have to wait till new year's day if you want to make a resolution; do it when it comes to your mind, irrespective of the date. But on the other hand, I know the importance of the necessity of psychological tricks one has to make use of in order to control oneself (the mind is so darn hard to control using logic!). So in totality, I have nothing against the popular practice of making New Year resolutions and indulge myself too.

Yesterday, one of my friends asked me, 'So buddy, what's your new year resolution'. One joke I heard sometime back somewhere came to my mind and I replied "800 by 600". Well, by the face of him, i understood that the moment of wit had been wasted. I had to indirectly explain to him that I was referring to computer monitor resolution and it was a joke! Well it's not that my friend was an illiterate villager from some remote corner of the countryside, but was a well educated modern person. Now, this does not mean anything, since I am too aware of my own sense of geeky humour. But the point is, it pains to find the right ambiance every time I want to enjoy the effects of a PJ!

So people, upgrade yourselves and improve your GQ(Geeky Quotient)!
