How much ever I tell to myself that, I would keep my blog away from loading with Google stuff, the resolve lasts till just the moment I see a news that has something even remotely to do with Google..Call me whatever...but to be fair to myself and to Google, one only had to see their Ad for Software Engineers today in Appointment section of TOI(Hyd edition). Not that I read that tabloid, but I happened to peek into the Ascent section, when my neighbour in the bus was reading it.....

At first I thought it to be a sign of "OM", but on second thoughts it got clear..it is the face of a human...they had taken the Capital G of the Google into being the forehead, with the two "O's" inside the "g" fitted horizontally, that made up the eyes, the "l" that made the nose and the "e", inverted to be the mouth....wonderfull..anyone who had got the picture and is able to scan it, would do a great service in putting up the advertisement for it's ingenunity. The ad is for software engineers for it's R&D centre in Bangalore....How I wish I were a Software Engineer...it's too late now....


I got my passport today...it had been since three months that I applied, so much for the improved processes and all...I had been constantly checking my passport status in the passport office site for the past two months and I lost patience when I kept seeing the "Your Application is under process"..I wrote to the grievance section about the delay and the reply was prompt...it said that my police report hadn't yet been received in the passport office...so only after they receive the Clear Police Report would they do anything over my passport...

So back to the Police station, where I had completed the formalities by April 10th. When contacted back, the reply was that they had just sent the papers 2 days bcak and I would get the passport within a week...all these after I had submitted all the Documents necessary for the verification...so far so good....

BTW,
