A dedication to the dud(e)

2003-2007, the four years where I came across some extra ordinary people.. amidst all of them, two of them stood out...
One, like a Nai'x amidst creeps (http://abbchris.blogspot.in/2008/07/snakey-blue-enigma.html)
Another, like simply stood out (Just for the sake of it! and he did!).. This one's a dedication to the latter:-

- He wished good morning to books with his eyes (Good afternoon, Good evening, Good 11pm, good 2 am as well during exam times)
- He is said to be the inventor of motion play in pc gaming and he thoroughly believed that by moving sideways in a chair while pressing the up arrow on his keyboard, his car in NFS would turn sideways (and if he falls from his chair, his car would crash!)
- He believed that 'computer monitor' is just a notion... if you raise enough from your seat and see above the monitor, you can spot the CT (of counter strike fame) hidden behind the crates
- He disproved the notion of 'cold' by dismissing it as a state of mind. If water strongly thinks that it's cold, it turns into ice and the minute it thinks it's hot, it turns into 'steam'.. 'ice', 'steam', 'steam', 'ice', then where did water come from? (It is the stage between thoughts!)
- Wrinkle-free shirt and pimple-free face are the two most important things of his bachelor life
- He had a double first crush on pakku and nikku
- He had a pre-first crush when he was in KG and post-first crush when he was in UG
- He provides the most (un)reliable ratings in history (Ahead of Fortune magazine) in several disciplines but each one of the disciplines are names as PB
- To prove his rating's accuracy, he often launches himself into top spot (The most coveted PB1)
- Smoking quit him 694 times and seriously quit him 463 times, but he still managed to convince it each time
- The first time he drank, he saw the dejected look on smirn off's face that he has not reached a high and then..... he gave Smirn off the time of it's life
- He created an alter-ego much like his best friend BK (more about him later) but later dumped it as he got repeatedly confused between himself and his alter-ego (He later blamed the rhyming name that he has given to his alter-ego as the cause for the confusion)
- He likes everything that's blue.. don't get me wrong.. windows' blue screen, the color blue, washes clothes in robin blue and best of them all.. (oh! this is a public forum, is it?)
- He knows many things (One of them was the year in which he'd get married, other three things were the month, date and time)
- He would transform into any one between ghost rider and a dark knight every night (during sleep) and please don't ask him 'who is a dark knight' lest you hear from him "night dark gaane vuntundhi kadhara PB... P P P... PB fellow")
- He eats mutton and exclaims "This is like chicken! I like it when it's cooked this way"
- Recession hit him bad where it mattered the most - Hairline; but he still bailed out his trademark smile!
- He is an engineer by education, an architect by choice, a lover by fate, a dark knight by night, scientist by accident, a laugh riot, jumping jack, smoking pack, amarzon forest, the dude, the simply....  and when i am about to end it with some more adjectives, he chips in with his famous line and I quote:-

"Nee lanti pani paata leni vaadu raase pani paata leni kadhalu chadavataaniki nenu pani paata lekunda lenuraa"
