Perpetually Perplexed

As quoted in Alice in the wonderland "you have to keep running in order to stay in the same place" Happens all the time. Is it that I fail to realize the syntax errors and mistake them for logical errors?  Was trying to compile and run an android program to which a third party library jar file was added. The program compiled fine, but would not run saying it is not able to find the above mentioned third party classes. My logical mind screeched  screamed. Hey, if you find the class when compiling, why can't you find the same during execution. The IDE either could not hear the scream or decided to ignore it. I tried googling and finding some solution. Did not help much.  Next step should have been, a little more google or ask in some developer groups. Instead, me - the know-all suspected some corruption of sdk and deleted and tried reinstalling it. But now things started going even more interesting. The new sdk would not download and would not install. I might have t

This lady either writes about roads or gods. Can't she think of any normal topics? I know this is what you will be opining. I do think about other topics. But they are just not blog worthy. And gods and roads are harmless subjects which will surely not be offended. Today I was seeing some spiritual or was it religious?, spiritual/religious channel. (spiritual is cool, religious is old fashioned and fundamentalist) There was a scroll at the bottom of the screen. Haven't visited our website yet, Visit www....... At this rate one day, even the God will have a url. He will realize that his very existence is being threatened and unless he takes some drastic action, in the next term his opponent the Satan will be ruling. In order to improve his image, he aught to take some PR exercises. As a first step he can create a website, next may be a facebook page etc. And he will ensure that if you are wearing a janivar (sacred thread - supposedly white thread to be worn by Brahmins

My house is clean and shining. Well at least, it was in the morning. For a change, I cleaned all the nooks and corners, changed the bed linen and made the house presentable. Well, my spouse's second cousin was to visit with her child and niece. Does second cousin mean, the second daughter of her parents or related to one in the second chain. We used to say khasa sister and bisa sister in our childhood. Anyway she was supposed to come. Hence the sudden determination to clean. One has to look as if one is a good home keeper, more so infront of in laws. Even if they are second or third. And looking at the house I thought, why can't I do this more often? It did not take too much time or effort. Then my inner voice told, whom are you kidding? You always search for short cuts. Just yesterday, you dragged a piece of paper using a mop instead of picking it up....  Stupid inner voice. And it is not worth it. See now, 6 hours later, the house is back to normal. With a thin layer o

Why am I not writing frequently. (As if anybody cares!!!) I am not getting any time. What a lame excuse given by a jlshm. But it is true. Just now I finished cleaning the house, and washing 20 each of plates, bowls and spoons and glasses. No, we are not running any restaurant. All these dirty vessels were used by us, just 3 of us. And now I am postponing it, But eventually I should cook for the afternoon - atleast a rice and sambar. And finish that and go to bank for giving form 15g or 16g, so that they won't deduct at source the meagre interest I get from fds. Then I should go to some office where i have taken some freelance j2me project. In between these I should squeeze some time and go to library and pay the monthly reading fees.
