Missing Child Maddie: I have tried to help find Maddie by carrying her story in my blog.  Why did I feel sorry? Everyone has a point of connection, and the fact that she shares her birthday with my son, just struck a chord.

Summer Holidays for Miti: Yes we are busy.  Now that my son is at home, I have become more relaxed, laid back.  We try to do things together.  I have now discovered a new passion for dancing in Miti.  Both of us like techno and house. So its digging in the sand, biking, at the pool, cartoons.  Its pretty idyllic at the moment.  But like my son says.. We have 70 days more to go through..;)  Yes he is counting.. I am not..

Immigration Bill:  The day the proposal was announced, the first thought was why are we even trying to do everything legally?  We should have just come on a holiday, and stayed behind..  The illegals have it better. [That I guess was natural envy that another demographic is going to benefit faster.]  A few days later I was chuckling.  I come from India, where one gets exposed to politics whether inclined or not.  The most obvious point was next year is election year, and both sides want latino votes and support.  So they will pass the bill, despite the pundits saying otherwise..

Networking sites: I have now added a couple more networking sites [Xing, BloggingtoFame, Orkut], in my definite to-visit list.  I have had quite some interesting outcomes of the same.  I just detect a cosmic wind of change.  Its  that “I know things are changing” feeling, to which you can’t attribute scientific phenomena.

Movies: Most of my CG readers do not know that I am a BIG movie buff.  So I thought I would start by listing out some I have seen in the last couple of weeks, and reviewing them in leisure.  So here goes: Shrek 3, The Cleaner,  Indiana Jones and the last crusade, Balzac and the little Chinese seamstress, The chorus, Akeelah and the Bee, Failure to Launch, Dont Give up on us, Namaste London, Pellaina Kothallo, Bagham Bhag….. Hey I am from India after all, and we adore movies..

Books: I mostly read entertainment value books.  Nothing elevating, enriching the soul etc.  Why so?  I prefer good treatment and enjoyable writing to high falutin sentence structures that are there only to tell you how complicated the author can write.  Dont know what I am talking about, why dont you try reading Arundhati Roy’s God of small Things, in one shot.

Heres my list:  Amanda Quick:Wait Until Midnight, Gennifer Choldenko :Al Capone does my shirts [still reading], Sydney Hosier:  Most baffling, Mrs. Hudson, Donna Smallin:The one-minute Organizer [A bid to clean my house, we are messy except for Massa]
