Once, on a Monday, January 30, 2006, I thought...
Combo1
After spending so much time figuring out which song it was and then finally downloading the song it turns out to be a different one man!
Its this song I had at Barrista which had lyrics from the song 'A few of my favorite things' (originally from the movie The sound of music). The song was undoubtedly by OutKast. No doubt about it. So I set about searching for lyrics and album info. And after downloading the album (2 actually), the song had no lyrics in it!! Just music! What the fart-fart! And I'm pretty darn sure that I had heard the lyrics (no matter how drunk on coffee I must have been). Great! Now I'll have to go through downloading the remix versions and DJ mixes. One thing that would have made it worse though, would have been if I was on a dial-up now!
Also whats really funny is that there's no decent torrent for Lynard Skynard. Damn!
In other news...
On my india.com account, I saw this moveTo dropDown box which said Combo1. Looks like some programmer left a Combo here. Didn't even bother to name it! Wow. What a cool bug!
Then my brain yelled, "Ha Ha! Fooled Ya!!"
Heh. Turned out, it was me. I had long back made a folder called Combo1. I used to see this empty DropDown Combo box, (obviously left for moving selected mails to that Folder), and since I had no folder as such it used to be blank. Thats bad programming. So I had made a folder called Combo1. Now it looked like a default Combo box somebody dropped out.
Nice trick.
Then I forgot all about it.
Then I saw it today.
And I fooled me.
And its not just this once. With me happens everywhere, anywhere. My brain fools me. I think it has a mind of its own...
eof: Y'know one of the things I like about IE best? The way it renders pages. Not loads. I mean the look-&-feel render. How each page can be felt through IE. In other browsers its all glazed by the browser.
