Hello hello hello,
Is there anybody out there?
Just post if you can read me
Is there any one at all?

Come on, now
I hear you're feeling down
Well I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again

-Due apologies to Floyd


What's the point in blogging if there's nobody to read your posts? Please do leave some indicator that you exist and that I have an audience..albeit a very small one.

Now, to answer questions about the Lady. This title was bestowed upon me by my friends at Pigtail Pundits
Pigtail Pundits has this loft/attic which serves as a storehouse for old tables/chairs/anything else that doesn't fit in the main work area.
Once upon a time, one of my ex-colleagues was struggling to get a table out from the attic. And being the shortest in the company, he couldn't reach half way. So he turns to me and says "Can you help? You are heighted". Which does not mean I'm tall by any standards, but it's all relative.
Hearing the "heighted", there were snickers all round, and the word evolved to "knighted". And since I very well cannot be Sir Luanne, I was christened Lady Luanne. Hence the Lady. And as for the title, it has Lady in it, and Lady Writer is a very cool Dire Straits song. Duh.

And talking about names, I have just opened my Inbox here at work. My e-mail signature these days is,

Luanne Coutinho
Rave Technologies

When I was about twelve, I used to think I must be a genius, but nobody's noticed. If there is such a thing as a genius...I am one, and if there isn't, I don't care.
-John Lennon

I e-mailed the author of some Struts article yesterday as I wanted more info. So he replies today saying "Dear John,"

What more can I say? :)
