I had to check the date on the cartoon... I thought it was 10 years old (maybe it is plagiarized - like 90% of the coding articles these days).

My version:
Denial: It can't be doing that; it works at my desk.
Bargaining/self-blame: Oh. So that's how you wanted it to work. This is my fault, I guess I should have read between the lines, or worn my telepathic marketing tin-foil hat that day.
Anger: Damn it. I have to fix this crap because Frank got himself laid off.
Depression: I'm so tired of this sh!t. I wish I was working on (über-sexy new feature #745, part D) rather than Closed-Loop Corrective Action #8475, category major, priority P1 (translates to "FIX IT NOW! FIX IT NOW! HURRY UP OR WE'RE ALL GONNA DIEEEEEEEE!).
Acceptance: <C3P0>This is my lot in life.</C3P0>
Software Zen: delete this;

Or should say RFID (Request for Idea for development)!
I have been working with .Net for quite a few years now and I have decent idea how asp.net MVC works and gone through online videos and articles etc.
However, I feel without practical project it's soon going to be forgotten by mind and I don't have any paid project on MVC to work with. Hence, I decided to start some hobby project but stumbled by lack of creativity. 
So, it would be great if you guys can suggest some idea of asp.net MVC project which can be useful in future rather than some tutorial project. Something that can be useful to develop over time to be useful to me (either as full product or parts of it) or to open source community.
PS: This is genuine request, please don't flame
Thanks,
Milind

1. Start with your hobbies (so it is interesting to you)
2. Make a webpage about that hobby
3. Add to it as necessary.
For instance... I like music... so I would probably have some pages dedicated to music theory.
Add a tool for transposing.
Add information about orchestration and how different band instruments fit into the mix.
I could go on, but it is pointless. What are your hobbies. Make a page around that. Just start with a the first page. Add the other features as you think about what you would like. What things do you look up regularly (add tools/calculators/links and such to compile all that data into a single place).
Basically, take something you do already, and use MVC to make a resource that will enhance your hobby.

Right now coding is my only hobbie, and I have all the coding tools I need. 
That said, I'm not the one looking for more coding.

That was a nice one ! And pretty quick!

Make a music collection database, it's easy to relate to and it can be made as simple or advanced as you wish.

Create a generic Appointments application.
Where a customer (say the local massage parlour, dentist, Dr. whatever) an personalise the page, and use it for making appointments ( and their customer can use it to book appointments)

That sounds like a very interesting idea  Great..
I will ponder over the idea some more to see if I can make something useful.
Thanks

Well, I'm putting together a website for the Department of Public Works in Dartmouth MA, hoping that this could become something adopted by more DPW's in the state, or maybe even the country. Long term, this could result in maintenance contracts, etc., but that's all pie-in-the-sky until I get the actual website working. I've got a fair bit so far at www.dpworks.org, email me and I'll give you an account that you can use to poke around what I do have. It's implemented in MVC / Razor.
Alternatively, I'd love to see a web implementation of HOPE (see sig) particularly the designer. That's a huge undertaking though with some particular challenges.
So, let me know if you're interesting in working with me on the DPW thing.

I have worked on the video processing boards that are used, lets say the next time I have to fly any where I am walking!

I took a few flying lessons and it was made clear to me that the pre-flight checks were to ensure that the aircraft was 'airworthy' and not that it was in perfect condition.
As the instructor put it to me "you car does not need to be in perfect condition to pass its MOT, well it's the same with an aircraft".

Dev: "We've made the variable float."
Manager: "Float!? We're making software for planes, not boats!"
Dev: "I know."
Manager: "So, change it! What's taking you so long?"
Dev: "You want a long type?"
Manager: "Yes, 747, that's the type and it's long."
Dev: "But you wouldn't need a long for that, it would fit in an int or even short."
Manager: "Yes, we have int. flights, long and short."
Dev: "So you want a long, int and short? We'd need a lot of functions for casts!"
Manager: "Forecasts? But that's outside our scope!"
Dev: "The scope depends on where the variable is declared."
Manager: "We have customs for declarations."
Dev: "Yes, they're in the coding guidelines."
Manager: "Wait, what?"
Dev: "Huh?"

Just had an email;
Hello,
This is just a quick email to congratulate you on winning the Land Love Magazine Book Competition!
Your prize copy of Bacon: Recipes for Curing, Smoking and Eating! has been dispatched and will be with you shortly. I do hope you enjoy the book!
I've found the book on Amazon, the blurb is brilliant;
Quote: There's never a wrong time to eat bacon, and this new cookbook proves it, offering mouth-watering recipes for any hour of the day, from Pork Belly Hash with Kale and Sweet Potatoes to Apple Pie with Bacon Strudel. Bacon isn't just an infatuation—it's a way of life.
Even as pork prices rise and the economy fluctuates, consumption of bacon remains steady. The American Meat Institute reports that bacon has an almost cultlike following; the Facebook page About Bacon has more than 10 million Likes. Its sublime savory taste has been endorsed by scientists as well: Bacon boasts umami, the seductive “fifth taste” that heightens and rises beyond sweet, sour, bitter, and salty. Bacon isn’t just an infatuation—it’s a way of life. In Bacon 24/7, author Theresa Gilliam and photographer E Jane Armstrong have teamed up to create a fun and current cookbook to feed the need for bacon. They include recipes for every hour, from dawn through dark, as well as info on topics such as how to cure and smoke your own bacon. Drool-worthy photographs highlight dishes such as Pasta Carbonara, Pork Belly Hash with Kale and Sweet Potatoes, and Apple Pie with Bacon Strudel. Any evening that begins with a Bacon-Infused Manhattan holds the promise of being an unforgettable night.
