It never seems to end…

Posted on November 6, 2006November 6, 2006

Another two blasts in Guwahati yesterday. I called mom and dad immediately. My dad told me he was in the same area the day before. It’s a busy shopping centre so there’s likely to be quite a lot of people around. Mom travels to and fro work everyday and a pretty long distance.

It’s a little scary and unnerving as to how easy it is for someone to plant a bomb. The next thing you know is someone’s family is wiped out. Someone loses a father, someone a mother, someone else a sibling perhaps. And to what end? Right now, it’s more like violence for the sake of violence. They seem to be intent to terrorising the common man and wiping out their own people from the face of the state.

Why have an email address if you can’t handle the response??

Posted on May 6, 2004

The last few days I have been emailing different service providers to find out more about broadband and Internet connectivity. Sadly, there has been hardly any response. It shows the total lack of importance given to the customer. Most of these companies have Web pages, but I doubt they really…

Had quite a bad experience with makemytrip.com today. I booked a ticket online for a bus to Chennai in the morning. After the payment was done, the screen blanked out and I didn’t get a confirmation for my ticket. Then I receive an SMS with my booking ID and a…

    There was a time when I used to wonder how safe it would be for someone to be living in the J&K valley area where bombing was something so regular that it finally stopped making much news material.

    But now after the recent bomb blasts around various parts of the country – you wonder how safe is it to just “live” anywhere. Yes, planting bombs has become so easy.

    Just makes life so uncertain and insecure.Over here in Singapore we are also aware it can happen anytime. My friend’s husband works there too. Her story: (http://www.xanga.com/erikanissa/544894614/bomb-blast-amongst-the-unreached-group.html

    I know how it must have been. Every time there is blast soemwhere I keep thinking of all my friends in the city and cannot pe at peace until I have made sure they are all safe.
    When will they realise that it is totally unfair to terrorise common people who have nothing to do with their issues.

    I don’t know whether news like this makes me sad or fills me up with anger… No cause, No grievance can justify such horrific acts of sheer cowardice against innocent lives…

    It leaves me seething with anger at this idiots.. who gave them authority to take lives? If i get my hands on them i would like to slowly tear them flesh by flesh, blood vessel by vessel, cell by cell,,,,

    In lighter words, that would make me no different from those cowards…we can just make them do manial jobs for the affected family throughout their life.

    cheers
