Ouch!!… I fell off a Rowan tree!!

According to an email I received today, I’m supposed to have fallen off a Rowan tree… (for those, like me, who have a question mark inscribed over their faces on hearing about something called as a Rowan tree… let me clarify… it is supposed to be an Eurasian tree with orange-red berrylike fruits)

So… this mail further went on to list out a few features that characterize a fellow who has had the fortune (or is that misfortune?!) of falling off a Rowan tree! Read on…

ROWAN TREE (Sensitivity) - full of charm, cheerful, gifted without egoism, likes to draw attention, loves life, motion, unrest, and even complications, is both dependent and independent, good taste, artistic, passionate, emotional, good company, does not forgive.

Hmmm…

Which tree did you fall off?! ;)

cheers!

The disappearing page trick!

I just tried to access this page i.e. http://supersam5.blogspot.com and voila!… an arabic page loaded up!! This particular page was a BlogSpot page… with a blog written in Arabic!!

I was like… “What the heck!?!!“… someone has taken over my page!!… and with all the things happening in the world… it was hard not to be slightly paranoid!! ;)

But then I thought… “Why am I being paranoid?!!“… why would terrorists hijack my page!?. So… I reloaded/refreshed the page. And still the arabic page loaded up instead of mine. In desperation… I hit the Refresh button on the browser a few more times… but to no avail!! The lifelog of some Arabian fellow confronted me instead of the usual rants of this Indian! The inability to decipher even an iota of the curly script visible on the screen compounded my vexation. And I did not know what to do!

So… I took a coffee break… and downed a cup of an especially strong and bitter brew. Coming back to my cubicle, I shut off Internet Explorer and restarted it. I tried to load my page… again! Lo and behold!… the familiar black layout loaded up and there it was… my page in all its glory!!

*LOL*… I really dunno what had happened! Must’ve been some glitch… somewhere!… I’m glad that its been resolved now!…

Aren’t you too?! ;)

cheers!
