Others may forget you but never will I….

3659975703_5aa2a99de3

When night comes then sleep comes,
When sleep comes then dream comes,
When dream comes then you come,
But when you come then sleep and dream never come,
Give a little love, have a little hope,
Make this world a little better,
We can do it together,
And we can make it better only if we try,
People laugh and cry!
Some giveup, Some will try !
Some Say hi while Some Say bye !
Some honest others lie !
Others may forget you but never will I….

- Tithi forwarded me this poetry back in 2002 …. suddenly found it in one of my old documents!

How to delete a locked file on Windows?

Sometimes when you try to delete a file on Windows it says file cannot be delete as it is used by another program; you must close the program to delete the file. Well, almost all the time you actually know which program to close in order to delete the file (also rename the file). But today when I tried to delete a file (which was not open in any program nor did I use this file for over three months) Windows was showing the message. You cannot really say which program or process is using it. So I downloaded Process Explorer from Microsoft’s site which you can use to see which process or program is using the file you are trying to delete.

After you run the Process Explorer go to “Find” menu and click on “Find Handle or DLL …” (Ctrl+F). Type in the file name (full or partial) you are having trouble deleting or renaming and hit Search. Process Explorer will list all the processes or programs using this file. When I searched for the file I was having problem with it showed that the “Explorer” is using it! So what can I do in that case?

From “Task Manager” if I kill the “Explorer” process I cannot browse to the folder so using “Task Manager” I ran “Command Prompt” and from command line I changed directory to the desired location. Typed the command to delete the file “del filename.ext”. I was able to delete the file and then using “Task Manager” I started “Explorer” again. It was easy but “Process Manager” made it easy to find the process. So many hidden stuff that we have on Windows!

Moved to my own house

It has been a dream come true for us. We’ve moved into our own house on 30th May 2009. It is a townhouse with a walk-out basement and a small backyard. First level or ground floor has a garage, walk-out basement and a room with our washer and dryer. Second level has kitchen, dining, living and a half wash room (without shower). Third level has three bed rooms and one full washroom. It is a small place to live in but a place we can call our own.

After we moved in I installed some new light fixtures, faucets and a chandelier of our choice. It was fun installing those on my own. For chandelier I’d to buy a 8 feet ladder and was standing on it for 3 hours to finish installing the chandelier. At the end of the day I was dead tired but felt good that I could do so much myself. Of course Tithi was always there to help me out. Being seven months pregnant she has helped a lot, thanks my dear.

Anyway, wish us luck and take a look at some of the pictures Tithi has taken on 3rd June.

Letter to Employees

Dear Employees,

Due to the current financial situation caused by the slowdown in the economy, Management has decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early retirement.

This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).

Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to management to be considered for the SHAFT scheme (Special Help After Forced Termination).

Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW programme (Scheme Covering Retired-Early Workers).

A person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as Management deems appropriate.

Persons who have been RAPED could get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependants & Spouse) or HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).

Obviously persons who have AIDS or HERPES will not be SHAFTED or SCREWED any further by Management.

Persons who are not RAPED and are staying on will receive as much SHIT(Special High Intensity Training) as possible. Management has always prided itself on the amount of SHIT it gives employees.

Should you feel that you do not receive enough SHIT, please bring this to the attention of your Supervisor, who has been trained to give you all the SHIT you can handle.

Sincerely,

Management

PS
Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas and oil,as well as current market conditions, the Light at the End of the Tunnel has been turned off. We apologize for the inconvenience
