Some Useful Changes

The new template is slowly but surely taking shape now. Have added the tag cloud and got rid of annoying borders I had got with the template I downloaded. Have the 'peek-a-boo' nav-bar in place (take your cursor to the top of the page to see it :) )

Next step is to secure a header image in place and then a decent background which will complete my basic setup other than the supplementary widgets like polls and comments.

BTW, have been doing this since am stuck with no work for two days. (Taking advantage of the connection at office rather than labour on the free dial-up over my mobile.)

Will modify other elements soon, keep watching this space.

World Toothbrushing Record!

How long do you need to brush your teeth in the morning?
One minute? 2 minutes? 5? 10? by now you must be viewing this post with skepticism but believe it or not I used to regularly brush for an hour everyday during engineering. To save you from the effort of having to imagine the state of my teeth, let me just explain that this happened due to a dear friend of mine.

He was actually one year senior to me but we used to be able to have long talks anytime we met up - in my room, the stairs, hallway, TV room, dining table, bathroom even! Our favorite though was the porch in front of the hostel where we would stand brushing and talking, talking and brushing, brushing and talking... and by God, was it useful! We used to discuss each and everything under the Sun and try and make sense to each other. Of course it helped that shared the same hostel and by virtue of being just junior to him, I was second in hierarchy in everything from getting the Hostel Prefect post to the livers saved separately from the chicken kept for everyone in the mess.

But yeah, the brushing habit built up then has been nagging me till now and now my fiance has a great time taking fun out of the duration of my brushing, ah! pity those who seldom get the pleasure of taking time out, and brushing for pleasure.

May God give them knowledge!
