The St. Francis’ College blog

My batchmates from St. Francis’ College, batch of 1991 have put together a great blog to link up people from our batch. Check out the SFC 1991 blog here.

So if you are an ex-franciscan from the 1991 batch, check it out and you can sign up for the Yahoogroup here.

Governmentium

Hilarious joke (hat tip: Supreet Singh)

New Element:

Recent hurricanes and gasoline issues are proof of the existence of a  new chemical element. Research has led to the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science. The new element, Governmentium (Gv), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. 
Since Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert; however, it can be detected,
because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact.

A minute amount of Governmentium can cause a reaction that would normally take less than a second to take from four days to four years to complete.Governmentium has a normal half-life of 2-6 years; It does not decay, but
instead
undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and
deputy neutrons exchange places. In fact, Governmentium’s mass will actually
increase over time, since each reorganization will cause more morons to become
neutrons, forming isodopes.

This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that
Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a critical
concentration.  This hypothetical quantity is referred to as critical
morass. When catalyzed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium, an element that radiates just as much
energy as Governmentium since it has half as many peons but twice as many
morons.


Orkut home page issues

For the last three four days my Orkut home page is showing the “Bad bad server. No cookie for you” message.

Though the other pages seem to be fine… Only the home page after login is not working :(

My interview on Socialmedian

Is here

What do you think? Agree or disagree?
