New member – MJ

Oh, so we’ve a new member around here (finally…I sent the invite AGES ago), MJ. Now children, don’t panic, it’s not someone plastic and harmful for you like Michael Jackson, but I guess she’s equally wacko (sort of…) by her own confession. Yes, she. Another girl member. New perspectives? Hope so, because Supersonic Aviatrix seems to have taken a holiday from this blog at least.

MJ is among THE most talented in quizzing I’ve ever known, except for the fact that she never GOES for quiz contests, let alone participate in any. Got a real good grasp of totally useless knowledge (must confess that very few people I know have reached that level), which is pretty much what’s thrown at in quiz contests. But doesn’t bring these skills to use. The reason? She is also among the LAZIEST people I’ve ever known, and certainly would give Garfield a run for his money in that department if she ever decides to become a cartoon character.

Got a good (non)sense of humor too, so appreciates mine too; and is a big fan of Schumi (heartbroken due to his decision to retire though; yes it’s really sad that he wants to hang up his boots so soon…). Pretty varied tastes in music – how many of you have heard of Harry Belafonte? Well, that should tell you about the diverse music taste I guess.

Started her own blog recently, Cloudy Musings, do visit it and muddle up your thoughts (not much to muddle up now though…). Dunno how long this blog will exist, since going by her lazy attitude I fully expect it to be abandoned. Ok, kidding maybe she won’t, but well, let’s see…

Oh, and in case I forget, someone with an above-average techxpertise – generally don’t come across girls having that. I HEREBY INDEMNIFY MYSELF HERE BY STATING IT’S NOT TO HURT ANYONE’S SENTIMENTS, SO PLEASE DON’T FLAME ME.

I guess that’s about it.
