My Stupidity Revealed 7

Disclaimer : This can’t be projected as my Stupidity. You people have to decide!

I’m staying in Shollinganallur, where there is no way to do general shopping even. So two days back I went to a nearby  Food World(Spencers) (a regional Deperatmental store here in India), on ECR Road, in Madras. I was much interested in buying a Body Spray as the current one got over a few days back. Since it involves few kilometer ride from my home to food world, I started my bike with Earphone connected.

Got inside the store and took the shopping cart and kept few biscuit packets & a loaf of bread. Then moved on to the place where the Men’s Cosmetics were being shelved. More than 2 dozen varieties of Body Sprays were there. I picked nearly 8 of them to smell in order to choose. Simultaneously, I was listening to some song from my favorite movie Hum Apke Hain Koun. Spraying the body spray on hand (around the wrist) and smelling it is one of the common sign most of us do in order to pick the right one. Even I followed the same. As I was with many choices left, I tried it in different parts of my body viz., on the left Hand, left side of my shirt, in my palm etc. Suddenly one of them just sprayed a thick paste of a blue colored gel on my shoulder. Before I could react, the color changed to a white foam!!!
Oops, it was a shaving Gel :( The sellers have kept all of those very nearby which were really confusing for anyone to segregate shave gel from body spray at one glance. Well to conclude, you guys decide upon this issue whether it is my mistake or the one who arranged it??

Microsoft s Offer to Yahoo#

Microsoft's Offer to Yahoo


Microsoft has offered to buy Yahoo for $44.6bn in cash and/or shares. "We dont have any other option" must be the answer from Bill Gates in Microsoft's Board of Directors meeting. They are offering nearly 62% more from Yahoo 's Thursday(31-Jan-2008) closing price. Just see the graph below plotted against Microsoft, Yahoo, Google and Dow Jones, Nasdaq for the past 5 years.

Google Vs Microsoft Vs Yahoo & NASDAQ, DOW

 

We can very easily say that Googles' stock has increased very high than its rival(s).

Below, is the Microsoft’s letter to the board of directors at Yahoo, proposing to buy the company.

But its something similar to HP-Compaq Vs Dell - Though its not so equal in any means though. But the deal might workout like that.
