Once upon a time, 26 years ago, as the darkness was poised to dissipate at the first rays of the lazy Tuesday dawn break, a baby was born.
HUH… so what, everyday lots of children are born.. they are born even if the nights not dark or if the dawn breaks late or if it's a rainy dawn. So what was special about this dark dawn!!!
History was made!! Records broken!! Heavens came pouring down!!! The keys on the board went scurrying around like little mice… the servers quaked, the motherboard made urgent calls to its makers for instant upgrades!!!…. And the world of technology woke up with a start to welcome a new born baby called Vijay Bhatter
A computer addict, quicksilver wit, gift of the gab to talk his way out of any situation, ever smiling and very rarely "Down & Busy" and mostly invisible to IFians, such is the multi faceted person called Vijay.
And so we, the India Forums Development Team decided to relive a bit of that history today, 23rd October 2005, and so here is from all of us at India Forums to you Vijay, because, History was made and records were broken. Heavens is still pouring down on the city of Joy and its time to party!!!
So here's a Bouquet of 26 roses wishing you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
1. With little justice we can do with words we will tell you more about a guy. Each rose we want to give to him signifies something special about our dedicated and sincere admin. Thus twenty six roses as today is his 26th. Birthday. But there's a small little twist. With each trait of his is connected the title of a bollywood movie. All the bollywood directors are lining up outside his house to get an inspiration for their movie titles. So to begin with Vijay this first rose is an apology if we can not do justice with words or Shabd we use today to describe you.
2. Vijay, to start off with this first rose is for your beautiful smile, the everlasting Muskaan. (Pooja Sood)
