Absent Without Setting Expectations

It has been a while since I have blogged.

I will start this post with some news:

Our team has released a new MSN Messenger game. UNO!

This game is currently available to all MSN Messenger users in USA and over a period of time will be available in localized languages in other countries as well.

This is what was keeping me extremely busy and also the reason of me being AWSE.

Over this period of time I have developed a new hobby and that is playing Bridge. I always knew about this game but never really bothered to dig deeper into the Zen of bidding and playing and now I am totally addicted. I can play bridge at any given time of the day or night. Well probably not at night.

I am amazed by the amount of research and data available on bidding, and this is only one part of the game. That being said, I would love to talk to people who are avid bridge players and think Bridge is not just sitting N-E-W-S 

I also came across this extremely funny and gamey flash animation

More excitement:

My dear old and good friend Manjit is moving to Hyderabad (you can find a link to his Blogs on the right hand side links set)

Boy it will be fun, though I am sure he will be quite upset seeing the drastic reduction in my Alcohol drinking capacity.

Some more excitement:

I am traveling to Aravalli Hills to visit the FIRST TRANCE FESTIVAL in India. www.moondust.in. I am really excited about this. You need to see the web site and the number of Artist that will be performing. For those who don’t like this music or are simply lazy this festival is open air and will play music for 80 hours NON-Stop. Boom Shanker.

On that note, I will take off, as it is time to play some Bridge with friends.
