I wish that every other day for the rest of your life turns up so good as it was yesterday.

Quite true! I can bet my 300 Rupees on that, which I have been saving for the last two months to buy Internet hours. -- TheResilient "Technology has become the bane of my existence; its absence shall be the reason of my non-existence."
