Windows NOTEPAD bug
This is really really weird... If you are working on a Windows system, try this out:
- Open an empty notepad file
- Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
- Save it as whatever you want.
- Close it, and re-open it.
Try another sentence "this app can break". Make sure you have to start with a new file and then type in the sentence. Copy paste won't help.
I'm not sure how many more such "magic" words do exist. I'm sure there would be many more such combination of words or sentences. May be a pattern can emerge from all such notepad breaking sentences...... Huh!

Football, WorldCup, Girls And Bihar
How do they all relate? The news item from BBC says
"The girls of Barauni village in Begusarai district eat, drink and sleep football and stay up all night to catch their favourite teams at the World Cup on television.
The girls of Barauni are not only mad about football, they also play the game with a lot of passion - three girls from the village have played in the national women's team, and seven others have been in the state team."
Read here for more. Way to go for Indian football, but such is the beauty of this game.

Dont sing Jhalak Dikhla Jaa
Last evening i watched a news item at Aaj Tak channel about a village where people are afraid of singing the latest chartbuster from Himesh Reshammaiya, Jhalak Dikhla Jaa song from the movie Aksar.
Why? Click here.
It seems the village ghosts take possession of whosoever sings the song. Why do the ghosts have an affinity for this particular song? Great bong gives the answer for the ghost's fascination. Another great post from Great Bong....
