4th year in a row ...

06
07
08
09

It is the fourth consecutive year when I wouldnt be home for Diwali. Last year I had promised myself that in 09 I would be home for Diwali what may come but here I am very much thousands of miles away from home.

I just hope that some day all these sacrifices pay up, they better pay up. Honestly speaking Diwali is the only time of the year when I feel like being home and with my family. It drains me out psychologically when I realize that I am not.

Petition Supporting the Extradition of Roman Polanski

Petition Supporting the Extradition of Roman Polanski

Disgusted

Why in the world Roman Polanski should be forgiven of his crimes ?

I am absolutely disgusted by the artistes who have petitioned for his release and the list includes some very big names like Moncia Bellucci . Even some of the diplomats and politicians have supported the same. I want to ask these petition supporters would you have still signed the petition if it had been your daughter or sister. Would a normal person even have stood a chance if he had raped a 13 year old girl in USA and confessed to the crime. Not a shot in this world. Any other person would have got a life long sex-offender tag as well as at least a 5 year jail term amongst the most hardened criminals in USA.

First he absconded from the country and now he seeks a dismissal of the case, on what grounds? The judge did not deal fairly does not mean you did not commit the rape or your rape was legal.

You may have made the world's best movies but that does not allow you the right to rape children. The man needs to come back, serve his sentence and put this behind him, he should have done that a long long time ago.

In my opinion nail that SOB and get him to his deserved place, PRISON.

Share the petition stated in the previous post if you agree with me.

Ciao

P.S. Big fan of his movies but not him as a person.

Cities

In the last six months I have lived in four different cities Syracuse, Redlands, Sunnyvale and Santa Clara in chronological order, visited another five Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego and Las Vegas. It feels like I am on some kinda City steroid regime.

All my life I have been on the move since my father had a transferable job but that was like a move once every 3-4 years, never in my life did I have such a streak of moving around and constantly getting to see new places. Even though all this moving has been part of the job-hunt process, in some ways I feel great that I have seen so much of the world at just 25 years of age.

Some cities I want to live in future are

New York, Paris, Shanghai, Tokyo, Sydney, London and a few more, given the current trends I think I can complete this list by the time I am 35 ;). Lucky I would be if I can achieve that.

P.S. I have not counted the cities I saw on my cross-country drive from New York to California in April :D.
