वाढदिवसाच्या हार्दिक शुभेच्छा!

Heres how todays day started for me:
1. Had planned to drop my brother to shivajinagar at 7am. Though had set up 3-4 alarms , never woke up until 8am!
2. Started for office at 9:45am, thinking that i can return by 5pm. went to bikaner sweets wala , but no sooner i started my bike, the compressor went off. couldnt start my bike again. had to drag it back to rahul automobiles, almost 2kms. the road is on side of hills, and you can imagine me dragging the bike up and down the curvy roads. This service centre is close to my house and reliable one. The service guy informed that head, valve along with compressor might have gone bad due to bad petrol use. Now thats a warm welcome to pune!
3. went back to get my car from parking lot. As i had the keys, I thanked god that i didnt have to face my wife at home :)
4. Just yesterday night had bought lemonade bottle and kept in car. i was so thirsty after the workout, that the lemonade tasted really chilled. Again thanked god! 
5. Earlier my wife did tell me take the car. so good part is i realised that its sometimes good to hear what your wifey says!

So in all, the first half of day had me getting some things right and others bad.
I can figure out what the rest of year holds up for me :)

My Startup - The beginning

Background The idea struck way back in 2007 when I was playing for IMM team in Bangalore. This group used to organize regular matches and an annual tournament with rival group BTM. We used to have high drama even for the local weekend matches. Surprisingly there was no way to publish results on any cricketing site. So I pushed the scorecard and match details on wordpress blog. Here is the link to the older blog: Marathi Cricket blog From then on, me and prashant - who was also teammate at IMM, always discussed on how to setup such a website on our own. But then I moved to pune and things got slowed down due to lack of time. We were always in touch and the idea to start was still in our heads. Meantime, I was looking at different db schemas and tried to come with one on my own. For almost 3 years, we were not sure how to go for this startup. So we tried our hands with joomla. And once we saw that we can build our own custom module like the way we wanted it, we became s...

First Goa Trip!

After a very long time, we decided to visit goa. The rainy season didnt hinder us and we were all set to go. Booked the dona sylvia resort for a stay of 3 nights and 4 days. This resort in mobor-margoa in south goa. Opted for 2nd-5th July as I had optional holiday on 5th july. We planned to take the pune-kolhapur-nipani-amboli-sawantwadi-panji-margao route. Pre-week situation: Our trustworthy 2 year old wagonR was running into lot of deep water. Had AC failure, non-functioning horn, frequent typre punctures and wipers out of shape. We did try the local MASS in baner, but it was of no good.  All these issues had to be sorted out before the travel. So was looking out for some MASS on par with Bimal of bangalore. One of my relative suggested the chougule MASS near katraj.  Dropped the car on tuesday and got it on back in wednesday with all the problems rectified. Went there personally to check the service center and it turned out to be very good. Now my wife, manisha informed...

On Road Encounters

In pune, there is never a dull moment when one is driving. Everyday, it somehow happens that i get into close shave! I am planning to post all such incidents here. So buckle up, put on ur helmets for this joy-ride, hoping that there wont be any road incident that i wont be able to write down later :) Friday, Jan 7, 2011: we planned to go to baner around 8pm. so started early for office as had to come back home by 7-7:30 pm. The ride to office was again free of any major troubles. Returned home in evening without any major findings. We started around 8:30pm for baner. Took the swargate-tilak road-university-baner route. There was quite traffic till swargate, as usual. There was a jam near durvankur on tilak road. There are basically non-operating signals on this busy cross-road and bikers zip through fast between cars. Was standstill with 2-3 cars ahead of mine. unfortunately, i couldnt see a biker facing me coming from durvankur. he too stopped dead next to my a-pilla...
