Missing the cyberworld

It's been days since I am afflicted with a feeling of being handicapped. My laptop is screwed up!! How bad can it get...
One fine day when I was watching a movie on my Acer 5004nwlmi, it just went blank. I tried rebooting 2-3 times, it would be up for around 5 mins and then again whooossh!!, it switches off!! Later on I figured out that it was because the Processor fan was not working and this was causing the system to overheat and switch off!!
I have given the Laptop to a Acer service center for repair in Chennai. Ironically these guys don't seem to know a heck about the stuff. All they know is to replace hard disks or change RAMs. It took me a while to convince them that it was switching off because of the faulty processor fan. All I know is if I am gonna get my laptop back in working condition, I ought to shell out loads of money!!

Funny incident

The other day I had gone shopping to a mall near my house in Chennai. Once I was done with picking up my stuff, I walked to the couter to checkout everything. There was this pretty looking girl at the counter, from first look she looks quite smart. She billed all my stuff and showed me the billed amount. I gave her my debit card to swipe.
She did that, the amount was debited and it was time for me to sign on one copy of the bill. The funny part was that this girl instead of asking me to sign, she went ahead and started signing. I was totally taken aback. What the heck! I though I was supposed to sign on my bill. I immediately yelled, hello!!! Watzupp!!!! Suddenly she came to her senses and gave me the bill. I think it's damn funny!!!
