Welcome to Vijay's homepage!

I finally managed to get off my lazy butt and make my new homepage fully-functional. And here it is. Yay!

THIS IS A TIMES NEW ROMAN FORBIDDEN SITE
The font Times New Roman may not be used while on my website. Why? Because it bugs me! My pages are intended for viewing with the Frutiger font, or its shareware equivalent, Rubicon Frobisher, which you can download here. You don't have to use Frutiger/Frobisher to view my pages but if you are using TNR then please change your font before you go any further.

Are you using a different font? Good. You may now proceed to the rest of my homepage.

Let's see, where should I begin? How about I introduce myself? My name is Vijay Ramlakhan, and I'm from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Welcome to my homepage!

AboutTime is a small application you can install to automatically correct your computer's clock to match time standards on the internet. You can get it here.

The following is what my homepage contains. All parts work properly (at least, they did when I tested them), however they may not necessarily be complete (you might see the odd link without a description, or something like that). If I happened to miss something major during the clean-up after construction (e.g. a broken link or image, or anything that looks kinda sloppy), please e-mail me and let me know.

Please note that all external links open in a new window.

Me - a little about yours truly.

Friends - a little about those I know.

Pics - I got several comments that my old website should have had more pictures of me and people I know... well here they are.

Sports - I'm a big sports nut; here are some of my favorite sport-related links.

Music - I also like listening to music, like many other people.

Humor - I'm the type of person who can snicker at almost anything... nothing beats a well-timed cynical laugh. Here are a few of the things that amuse me most.

Miscellaneous - other stuff that doesn't seem to fit anywhere else.

brainwave of the day:

The moment's thought is randomly selected from a list of trivia tidbits, thoughts, and quotes that I found amusing and/or thought-provoking, compiled by yours truly. All thoughts and quotes (not the trivia though) emanated from my own head unless otherwise indicated; the code for selecting one for display comes from HTMLGear. If you would like to see the whole thought collection to date, without having to reload this page 607 times, go here (updated 8/23/2003).

If you have any suggestions for what else I could add to my website or an idea that will make it better in any way, or if you have a moment's thought that you want to send me (I know you do!), please feel free to e-mail me, at rambo_18@hotmail.com. Also, if you have ICQ, my number is 3266651; add me! And don't forget to sign my guestbook before you leave! Thanx for visiting!

In this beautiful life, there's always some sorrow,
And it's a double-edged knife, but there's always tomorrow.
It's up to you, now, if you sink or swim,
Just keep the faith that your ship will come in; it's not so bad.
