Odds and ends

Its the end of another week. Time seems to fly sometimes and iterations not fast enough. I guess most of you all in the American continent watched the debate yesterday between the devil and the deep sea (President Bush and Senator Kerry). Whatever maybe the outcome of the November poll I must applaud this part of the democracy that allows the candidates to come face to face and state their case. I wish I could say the same for the state of politics in India. If this debate were to be held in India there would be so much bad (not that there is none over here) and I could get physical.

From politics to Chinese food. I just don’t understand the word ‘spicy’ from the people who serve Chinese to an Indian like me. More often than not I am disappointed by the amount of spice in spicy food. (For those of you who don’t know me, I am South Indian and I like my food blazing hot). A word of advice to other spice loving souls out there if they say its spicy and it looks pinkish with lots of oil around it don’t go for it. I don’t know why I am ranting off about Chinese food, may it is because of the heartbreak given me by a Etheopian restaurant that was not where it was supposed to be ( this after I had walked 2 miles to get to it). If any of the famished soul (in California) really wants good spicy Chinese food go to any of the numerous Indian restaurants that specialize in Indian Chinese …

On to some good stuff wnat a free ipod well go to this website. I have it from a good source that this is genuine.

A……chu……sniff….sniff….

The weather is getting to me right now. Had to take the day off yesterday trying to sleep it off(which didn’t work out so good). Right now I am a little confused with the home remedies for it. In India my people say that one shouldn’t drink anything cold or have ice cream if one has fever and cold but in American, people ask me drink liquids including those with ice in them to keep myself hydrated. Should I go with ‘Mama knows best or …’ I like ice cream so I guess I go with that choice.

Is it just me or is that the job hunting phase always sucks. Well I am still learning lots of stuff that I need to know to get a job … wait a minuite … isn’t my masters supposed to have prepared me for that ??

Thought for the day

“Don’t be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

US essayist & poet (1803 – 1882)

24 There are four things which are little on the earth,

But they are exceedingly wise:

25 The ants are a people not strong,

Yet they prepare their food in the summer;

26 The rock badgers[b] are a feeble folk,

Yet they make their homes in the crags;

27 The locusts have no king,

Yet they all advance in ranks;

28 The spider[c] skillfully grasps with its hands,

And it is in kings’ palaces.

Proverbs 30:24 – 28
