Is a Friend of a Friend a Friend?

Is a Friend of a Friend a Friend? If you ask this to a child, who is innocent, He would say Yes.

Now think about this.

US fights a war on terror. UK and Pakistan are two of the greatest allies US has got. Then, how come UK citizens of Pakistan origin blast bombs in UK? Is there any reason other then the war on terror? If this is because of the war on terror, then why do citizens of different countries of Pakistan origin or Pakistanis themselves, not blast bombs in Pakistan itself?

This has something to do with mindset of Victim and Tormentor. Pakistanis worldwide see themselves as Victim, and an unwilling partner on this war of terror. So they don't see any fault in what Government of Pakistan does, because they think that, Government of Pakistan is also a victim, being forced to be part of the war.

And they consider UK and US as the Tormentor....

bobvis: i'm brown and i'm prou....eh.

Read Bob describing himself and some adjectives, such as Asian and brown. It is hilarious, but true.

During the long weekend, in some rest area in New Jersey Highway, One Girl said Khuda Hafiz to me. She probably thought that I was a Muslim, or may be a Pakistani. I don't blame her as such. All of us look so similar.

I think, with the kind of relationships people are getting into, the world would look more similar after 2000 years. What do you think, Bob?

Corona Red Roses: Life is so sad sometimes...

Was reading thru one of the blog. Came accross this one. Life is so different in western world. It is so much different from eastern world. We feel so detached and away now. Corona Red Roses: Life is so sad sometimes...

To share my own thought, I used to stay in a house in 1982-84. There was a kid, son of my landlord, I used to play with. Prakash. He died due to a bike-accident. This news was passed to me by dad..

I feel sad, but I feel that that event has happened in a remote world... can not seem to connect to it... I know, it is bad on my part...

Niagara Falls

Started our trip to Niagara falls. The route we chose was to fly from ATL - Hartsfield - Jackson Atlanta Intl Airport to IAD - Washington Dulles International Airport. We were greeted by Pradeep and Sai at IAD.

We pikced up cars and started driving towards Monroeville in PA.

Try out Picasa

Have you tried out Picasa? New picture management tool from Google?

I think it is cool.

But there is something that I don't like about PICASA. It does not allow me to save pictures to be used in other application. All I can do is, print it :(

Just tried out new feature of Picasa2. So Showing off.
