Microsoft pushes back Office 2007 release

Microsoft Corp. said on Thursday it will delay the release of its Office 2007 business productivity software, citing a desire to implement improvements from customer feedback received during testing.

The world’s biggest software maker said it will now aim for a launch of Office 2007 to business customers by the end of 2006 rather than an earlier target of October.

Microsoft also said it would delay the general availability of the Office upgrade to early 2007 from its previous January target.

In March, the company pushed back the consumer launch of the 2007 Microsoft Office package, which includes the Word processor, Excel spreadsheet and PowerPoint presentation software to January to coincide with the debut of its Windows Vista operating system.

Gujarati Kavita

Ack:- Jay Purohit

Dress-maa tame sara lago chho,
Punjabi maa tame pyara lago chho;
Sari-ma koi-di tamne joya nathi,
Maate tame Kunwara lago chho.

Jivan maa JAS nathi,
Prem maa RAS nathi;
Dhandha maa KAS nathi,
Javu chhe swarg maa,
pan eni koi BUS nathi

Dil naa dardo ne pinaro shu jane,
prem naa rivajo ne jamano shu jane;
Chhe ketli taklif kabar maa,
Te uparthi phool muknaro shu jane!

Zindagi ne jiv-vani Filsufi samji lidhi,
Je khushi aavi jivan ma,
aakhri samji lidhi!

Shu karu fariyaad tari,
Fariyaad ma yaad chhe Fari fari ne yaad tari,
Ej mari fariyaad chhe!

Tu hase chhe jyare jyare,
tyare tyare tara gaal ma khada pade chhe.
Hu vicharu chhu betho betho,
ke mara sivay aa khada-ma ketla pade chhe!

Doobta jeevan na tame swaas chho,
kahu kem ke tame kaik ‘khaas’ chho.

Tame phool nahi pan jamin par ugta ghaas chho,
sachu kahu, tame ek moto Traas chho.

Loko kahe-chhe ke – Hasya tena ghar vasya!
Parantu e kon jane chhe ke –
Ghar vasya pachhi ketla hasya.?

Horror of Appraisal Letter

Ack:- Vaishali Ghogane

There was a contest in a company to write a fictional story for 500 words max which would start with the line “On a dark and foggy night, a small figure lay huddled on the railway tracks leading to the Bangalore station ”

This is what one professional wrote for the contest……. surprisingly, it was adjudged the best short story ;;))

On a dark and foggy night, a small figure lay huddled on the railway tracks leading to the Bangalore station. At once I was held back to see someone in that position during midnight with no one around. With curiosity taking the front seat, I went near the body and tried to investigate it. There was blood all over the body which was lying face down. It seemed that a ruthless blow by the last train could have caused the end of this body which seemed to be that of a guy of around my age. Amidst the gory blood flow, I could see a folded white envelope which was fluttering in the midnight wind. Carefully I took the blood stained envelope and was surprised to see the phrase “appraisal letter” on it. With curiosity rising every moment, I wasted no time in opening the envelope to see if I can find some details about the dead guy. The tag around the body’s neck and the jazzy appraisal cover gave me the hint that he might be a software engineer. I opened the envelope to find a shining paper on which the appraisal details where typed in flying colors. Thunders broke into my ears and lightening struck my heart when I saw the appraisal amount of the dead guy!!!!! My God, it was not even, as much as the cost of the letter on which the appraisal details were printed…. My heart poured out for the guy and huge calls were heard inside my mind saying “no wonder, this guy died such a miserable death”… As a fellow worker in the same industry, I thought I should mourn for him for the sake of respect and stood there with a heavy heart thinking of the shock that he would have experienced when his manager had placed the appraisal letter in his hand. I am sure his heart would have stopped and eyes would have gone blank for few seconds looking at the near to nothing increment in his salary.

While I mourned for him, for a second my hands froze to see the employee’s name in the appraisal letter… hey, what a strange co-incidence, this guy’s name is same as mine, including the initials. This was interesting. With some mental strength, I turned the body upside down and found myself fainted for a second. The guy not only had my name, but also looked exactly like me. Same looks, same built, same name…. it was me who was dead there!!!!!!!! While I was lost in that shock, I felt someone patting on my shoulders. My heart stopped completely, I could not breathe and sprung in fear to see who was behind……… splash!!! Went the glass of water on my laptop screen as I came out of my wild dream to see my manager standing behind my chair patting on my shoulder saying, “wake up man? Come to meeting room number two. I have your appraisal letter ready

Men and Women…

Ack:- Nirav Desai

Men:

1. All men are extremely busy.

2. Although they are so busy, they still have time for women.

3. Although they have time for women, they don’t really care for them.

4. Although they don’t really care for them, they always have one around.

5. Although they always have one around them, they always try their luck with others.

6. Although they try their luck with others, they get really pissed off if the woman leaves them.

7. Although the woman leaves them they still don’t learn from their mistakes and still try their luck with others.

Women:

1. The most important thing for a woman is financial security.

2. Although this is so important, they still go out and buy expensive clothes.

3. Although they always buy expensive clothes, they never have something to wear.

4. Although they never have something to wear, they always dress beautifully.

5. Although they always dress beautifully, their clothes are always just “an old rag”.

6. Although their clothes are always “just an old rag”, they still expect You to compliment them.

7. Although they expect you to compliment them, when you do, they don’t Believe you… 🙂
