Déjà vu

[Neo sees a black cat walk by them, and then a similar black cat walk by them just like the first one]
Neo: Whoa. Déjà vu.
[Everyone freezes right in their tracks]
Trinity: What did you just say?
Neo: Nothing. Just had a little déjà vu.
Trinity: What did you see?
Cypher: What happened?
Neo: A black cat went past us, and then another that looked just like it.
Trinity: How much like it? Was it the same cat?
Neo: It might have been. I'm not sure.
Morpheus: Switch! Apoc!
Neo: What is it?
Trinity: A déjà vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something.

Yesterday B was intent on trying to make me change the name and the nature of my blog. I didn't relent. Not that I have been producing earth shattering stuff here, but I am entitled to a fancy name and a few bad posts. Also, the good part about the internet is the degree of "free"dom associated with it. So in short, if you think my blog sucks, you have to keep shut because you aren't paying to read it!

B also maintains a blog of his own. He writes decent stuff in his own "patchy" way, but has very limited readership in spite of my desperate attempts to sell his blog to my friends of both sexes.
The problem with many (not all of course) women is that they appreciate some personal information (read relationship status, job profile, a concise list of your hobbies and most importantly a picture of you) before they can read a blog or for that matter before they can indulge in anything with you over any medium. B somehow doesn't get it. So there was little I could do to bolster his blog readership with the fairer sex.
As far as male readership is concerned, B has a bunch of friends who share his corny sense of humour and they don't disappoint. My male friends do at times read a post and tell me that I have landed myself a plum proposition, but they are not very consistent. Sadly not all of them share that 'sense of humour'. B however, has refused to give up and I am sure the reasons are so much the same as mine are.


So there, this should shut up B and all who concur with him. Sweet revenge........let me see if I can trick B into placing a link to this in his blog now :B
