Indiana Jones back on my iPhone

About a month back, I'd written an entry called "Give me back my Indiana Jones ringtone" cribbing about Apple not allowing 3rd party custom ringtones on the iPhone. I'm glad that with the release of firmware version 1.1.2, Apple has removed this restriction and I have my Indiana Jones ringtone back. I hope this is permanent and Apple has realized that desperate geeks are going to eventually crack the restrictions imposed on the iPhone if only to have their favorite ringtone back :).


Childhood Photo



Yogesh, my next door neighbor and childhood friend recently sent me this photo. I'm probably in the 1st or 2nd grade and the photograph is taken at our home "Sheetal Chhaya" in Ahmedabad.

Douglas Adams on Space

Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

Give me back my Indiana Jones ringtone

When Apple released firmware version 1.1.1 for the iPhone, they went out of their way to disable all ringtones not placed on the iPhone by iTunes. I do not mind paying Apple $1.99 for a ringtone that I like. But atleast let me have the ringtones that I like. If you don't have an Indiana Jones or a Star Wars Imperial March ringtone, atleast let me create my own. Or make it available thru iTunes. I just hope the iToner folks come up with a fix for firmware version 1.1.1. If you're an iPhone user and like your ringtones, support iToner !!

Yes Prime Minister - On foreign policy

Sir Humphrey: With Trident we could obliterate the whole of Eastern Europe.
Jim Hacker: I don't want to obliterate the whole of Eastern Europe.
Sir Humphrey: It's a deterrent.
Jim Hacker: It's a bluff. I probably wouldn't use it.
Sir Humphrey: Yes, but they don't know that you probably wouldn't.
Jim Hacker: They probably do.
Sir Humphrey: Yes, they probably know that you probably wouldn't. But they can't certainly know.
Jim Hacker: They probably certainly know that I probably wouldn't.
Sir Humphrey: Yes, but even though they probably certainly know that you probably wouldn't, they don't certainly know that, although you probably wouldn't, there is no probability that you certainly would.

Yes Minister - Skeleton in the cupboard

Sir Humphrey: The identity of the official whose alleged responsibility for this hypothetical oversight has been the subject of recent discussion is not shrouded in quite such impenetrable obscurity as certain previous disclosures may have led you to assume, but not to put too fine a point on it, the individual in question is, it may surprise you to learn, one whom your present interlocutor is in the habit of defining by means of the perpendicular pronoun.

Jim Hacker
: I beg your pardon?

Sir Humphrey
: It was…I.

Significance of the blog name and why I even have a blog like this one ...

For those of you who know me from or thru someone from REC Trichy, know the significance of the name "fudz". For the rest, keep guessing ...

This blog is just to showoff that I have an iPhone that can take and post pics or youtube videos directly to a blog. Most of the content on this blog has been posted from my iPhone by sending an email to go@blogger.com. That's the power of Web 2.0. Welcome to the Human Network !!
