Cute

I'll keep this note short, sweet and to the point. Ladies, guys don't like to be called cute, period. So don't think you are scoring a brownie point by using that word. We are not teddy bears, we are hunks (atleast in our mind) and we would rather be known for our rough edges than our smooth ones (Not speaking about the metrosexuals or ...).

Further somebody like me with a forest on their face is not cute! Scary? maybe. Cute? Heck No!

Peace out

An apology

Not from me. But from Jet Blue. I wish the rest of the companies would have the guts to do this ... hey wait maybe this will start a new tread and Microsoft can apologise for their crappy software, Walmart for their labour practise ... Massachusetts DMV for harassing me!

That being said, I do really like the apology ... if they follow through on their promise. Maybe we will have our first ethical corporation.

Odyssey - Book 3 - Chapter i - London

I finally visited London to tell the British empire that the sun has set on it ... ok maybe that was stretch. I think I can now write a guide book on how to see London (the important parts) in a Day with time to spare.

The trip started as one in India, the cab driver fleecing me for all I was worth, the ride from the airport to the hotel was the most expensive I have ever taken - 80pounds. to top it all out he lied and got another 20 from me. So the total was 100 pounds ~ 200$ ~ Rs 9000! Even though the company took the tab, it left a bad taste in my mouth ... not only have the taken the kohinoor from Us now they also had my 100 pounds!

But the trip wasn't all bad, I did get to see a lot of places I wanted to see, though the highlight was the Kohinoor! Maybe someday I'll get it back to where it belongs.

Without further adu here are the pictures!
