Kudos to these brave hearts

-
Today's news paper carried one special news item. Its was a brave act by 2 indian railway linemen. Who stopped Godavari Express(In Andhra Pradesh state, India), from being getting into danger with a destructed railway track because of floods. They literally saved hundreds of people.
They are Suryam and Chandraiah. Both are around 50. They made the train stop before the flood affected track. The train drivers backed the train. Unfortunately chandraiah didn nt identity the train coming back, and lost his life.

This guys have done a great job. Proved that ordinary people can do miracles when required. Kudos brave hearts.

The Mumbai trip

-
Its first time for me to be in Mumbai. I am here in Mumbai for VISA stamping work. Mumbai looks great. I am really feeling home here. Traffic is better than Bangalore. Nice to see the sea side. today i have submitted my VISA application form etc at the Netherlands call center . Tomorrow i got to attend a personal interivew at the consulate. Well, there are few good things about this trip. 1. I bought a book called "Who will cry when you die" a small but really great self help book. This really helps one to rediscover life. We all have great thoughts in mind, but only few of us go ahead and work towards it. But bought this book by looking at the title, just wondering "will some one cry really if i die?". One has to achieve something in life inorder to make sure, the world is going to miss you really, if you are missing from the world :-). Reading is a book is great. I was spending most of my time infront of the smart box (my desktop) or the idiotbox (TV). But reading

Indiatoday book club lottery - a 419 cheating

-
It is kind of 419 cheating by India today book club. In the name of a lottery of 60 Lakhs, they are selling books. If you buy books from india today book club, then you will become elgibile for this lottery. What is more, they say you will get 12k worth of gift vouchers for hotel and air tickets. Actually it is a cheating because the gift vouchers are not at all useful. read the following mail chain. I would have not felt it as cheating if they have not told me about 12k worth gift vouchers. When you say gift, what do you expect? gifts are supposed to be free and delivered at home, but in case of ITBC (India Today Book club), It is altogether different. Suggest me what kind of legal action we can initiate against ITBC/India Today to stop this 419 cheating.

Friends Forever

Forever Friends You Promised "Friends Forever" you promised. "together till the end" We did everything with each other. you were my best friend. When i was sad, you were by my side. when i was scared, you felt my fear. You were my best support- If i needed you, you were there. You were the greatest friend, You always knew what to say: You made everything seem better. As long as we had each other, Everything would be okay. But somewhere along tha line, We slowly came apart. I was here, you were there, It tore a hole in my heart. Things were changing, Our cheerful music reversed its tune. It was like having salt without pepper, A sun without its moon. Suddenly we were miles apart, Two different people, with nothing the same. Although we knew deep in our hearts Neither of us was to blame. You had made many knew friends And luckily, so had i But that didn't change the hurt- The loss of our friendship made me cry As we grow older, things must change But they don
