Planned to say no for alcohol as well. Aug. 2nd, 2004 @ 01:09 pm
Also decided to say "NO" to alcohol (of any form; "NO" to beer and wine as well) from Aug 1. So, one more added to the quit list. If I remeber correctly, the last time I had alcohol was 25 Jul 04 (Signature scotch). I don't know why am I becoming more and more health conscious now-a-days. Good huh!

A good site for people trying to quit smoking. Aug. 1st, 2004 @ 01:07 pm
Today is my quit date. I found this site Quitnet exactly today. A nice site.

Planned to quit smoking (again)! Jul. 31st, 2004 @ 11:03 pm
For yet another time (do not have the exact count in my mind), I planned to quit smoking. I set my quit date as 1st Aug 2004 (Significance: Friendship day). Atleast this time, I have to quit successfully. Also this time, I am not going to tell my friends that I am going to quit. They are tired of hearing this repeatedly.

» My first DVD burn under Linux.
Today I tried to burn my first DVD disk under Linux and it was painless. KIIIB is too good. It detected my TDK DVD burner straight away (was using Fedora Core 2; no scsi emulation). I copied the Matrix all in one DVD which took around 42 minutes (7.3 GB at 4X). Too good.
