For all my blogger friends

As I start writing this, I suddenly remember those movies I watched as a kid, which were set in a very "futuristic" 2010. When film-makers made us believe that in the year 2010 or so we would be going to office flying in our own saucer-shaped cars, or that there would only be aliens ruling our planet and we humans living on trees, or that we would be woken up by our personal robots every morning and given morning tea before being dropped to office, which would be somewhere on Mars.

Now its officially 2010. Fortunately, none of this seems to have happened (though I won't mind the personal robot bit). And here we are ushering in the New Year!!!!

And here I go wishing you a very, very Happy New Year.

Have a good year!

Cheers

@Lostworld: Truly man! What a disappointment they have been :-) Happy New Year to you too dear!
@Shilpa: At the rate we are going even 2050 seems too ambitious to me. Maybe 3010! Same to you :-)
@Thousif: Seriously man! What would be better than your own personal robot? Thanks a ton dear, and Happy New Year to you too.
@Uglyduckling: Hey everybody keeps saying that. When will all this happen?

Karan said...

Happy New Year to you too! Have a great year ahead. :) .. And yes, Good luck with the personal robot thing, and till it comes around, try getting a boy friend...maybe.. lol!! :P

The Double Inverted Commas said...

@Karan: But a robot is a robot. I mean, you won't have to mollycoddle it to get your things done, or pay it compliments to make it cook chicken for you etc etc. Don't you think? And a very Happy New Year to you too :-)

Karan said...

LOL.. I think you would want to cuddle your boy friend, and not do it because you have to, to get things done!! Boyfriends do it out of love, and not because you pay compliments. Haina?? :)

And if you need someone to get things done, better hire a cook or a helper!! I would rather cook myself (I mean burn food till only a black mess remains in the pan.. :P) than having a tin can cook it for me! lol.. :P

Shruthi said...

hahaha so true! happy new year!
and I wouldnt mind having a personal robot either. First task would be to clean my room. wheeee :D

The Double Inverted Commas said...

@Karan: OMG! Someone has got all senti ;-) And I said "mollycoddle" not "cuddle"
@Shruthi: Yup bliss it would be :-) Happy New Year to you too dear!
