Bits and Bytes

Welcoming the year 2011, Its bizarre that I'm welcoming the year 2011 in the month March. If you just look back the year 2010, it was filled with lots off controversy. Adarsh scam, N deal, CWG scam, 2G scam and local land scam... Looking at this, at some level i feel like we shouldn't pay tax, there is no development happening to the nation with the tax amount we pay, rather its politicians wealth that is thieving. TAX paying is bad.
Our PM Singh says "nanaavanala nanaavanala" means It wasn't me, It wasn't me. We need to
learn self defence from this guy..,

2. In US, interest rate for any loan taken depends on the history of us, the same for getting credit card also. It has lots off conditioning and check happens before they give loan/credit card. Unless in India you see they are selling these in road side ha ha ha :) okay. if we had paid the dues in time, not violated any traffic rules and others, it will put our name in Good standing list. When you are taking loan, if your account is in Good standing list, you will be benefited by lower interest rate and vise a verse.
Rather in India, we see flat interest rate for all the people regardless of their due maintenance. Recently we switched to set up box and the installer was asking about our check no. If we had maintained well with no check bounce or late pay. Our check no will have number like 10, 35 and etc.., i can't recall all the good numbers. Needless to say, we were benefited by some discount.


3. Couple of days back, i made two trips a) Kumara Parvatha b) Masinagudi. It was a great experience and joyful. This time Swamy accompanied us for both the trip. Elephant joke was hilarious, its indeed fun when you are with friends.
Let me share this elephant incident with you guys, It happened on the way from Bandipur forest - Swamy was sitting next me in pillion seat and he always use to missout the animals pass on by our car. We were all teasing him sayng, you came from US and couldn't see any., this was making him really uncomfartable and we could see the same in his face. When we came to Mysore Swamy saw three life size elephant balloon (very realistic), this time swamy wanted make it first, and told every1 see three elephants standing over there., in that by that time we all got a chance to make out that it is not real, and we all in laugh riot again :) :D
Swamy, you make us feel proud and we wish you were here all the time.
