Golden upgrade

We now have concrete proof that our best boy indeed has a heart of gold. "He-who-must-not-be-named" had got a headache on Friday evening and was feeling feverish. Our best boy offered "He-who-must-not-be-named", a lift home. That was such a kind gesture on his part!

The better part of the story and which actually prompted the upgrade -> Best boy went ahead an extra mile in rush hour traffic and took all the troubles to see to it that "He-who-must-not-be-named" got to his house safe and sound. What an angel!!!
Karma rating increment for this act of kindness -> 1.2

But our best boy messed up his karma rating by jokingly suggesting that "He-who-must-not-be-named" should have participated in "Sa Re Ga Ma Pa". How could he do that after listening to his singing?!!! The very thought of "Sa Re Ga Ma Pa" arising in his mind after listening to that hoarse singing cuts points.
Karma rating decrement for evil thoughts -> 0.2

Current karma rating -> 1.5
Increment -> 1.0
Updated karma rating -> 2.5

Heart of Silver...

"He-who-must-not-be-named" went home early yesterday since he wasn't feeling well. Today, our best boy asked him what the reason was for the early departure yesterday. Our best boy even asked "He-who-must-not-be-named" to take care.
Blessed be "He-who-must-not-be-named"!

Current karma rating -> 1.4
Increment -> 0.1
Updated karma rating -> 1.5


PS: (Silver -> "He-who-must-not-be-named" believes that best boy has a heart of gold but needs more actions to corroborate the fact)

Curse the thief!!!

Our best boy (mind it ladies and gentlemen, our best boy) lost his floaters on 09/09/2007. His beloved Nike ACG (size -> 12). Damned be the thief who stole the floaters in the middle of the night.

Our best boy had tried (and tried and tried and tried...) hard to find floaters of his size and fortunately had found one to fit him. Now that it is gone forever, he has switched to his Reebok shoes.

I can't help but wonder, "How can the thief get a good night's sleep? Won't he be troubled by Vishal's legs haunting his dreams? Those bare legs!" Che! Best boy's floaters!!!

Karma rating explained

The karma rating is determined as follows ->

A good deed fetches our best boy points anywhere in the range of 0.1 to 10.0 with a stepping value of 0.1.
A bad act analogously cuts points out of the karma rating (This would never happen though).

The current rating -> 1.4

1.0 -> Helping Bharath fix the problem.
0.2 -> Figuring out how value change events can be fired.
0.2 -> Dropping "He-who-must-not-be-named" to the service station.

Once upon a time...

Once upon a time, long long (alright! not all that long) ago, lived a boy who went by the name, Vishal. He was a very jovial person who cracked jokes that seldom made people laugh. He was a kind person who had a heart of ... (Err... whatever it was of).

When he was in college, he got placed in a company called National Instruments. Life only got merrier for him and he made new friends who were a bit of pain in the neck but nevertheless, good people.

One day, it so happened that all the new recruits were chatting on an instant messenger and "He-who-must-not-be-named" went ahead and called Vishal a "good boy". Vishal, who was also on the instant messenger, immediately responded saying that he was not just a "good boy" but the "best boy". That is how, ladies and gentlemen, Vishal was rechristened as "best boy".
