Ajay - On the Road called Life!

This week has been rather uneventful. The bug that has been worrying me last week, continues to do so with no solution.

Mumbai came to a shocking standstill on July 11 when serial blasts ripped through its local trains, killing and wounding hundreds. But the city of dreams stood fearless and fighting fit.
Salute Mumbai’s never-say-die spirit and Light a Candle for those who succumbed to the blasts or got injured. For every candle you light, CNN-IBN [...]

Am proud to say that yours truly’s weblog has been selected as Red Orbit’s Blog of the Day

I’m happy

Received two forwards with this letter. It very well could be a real letter from any Mumbaikar to the persons responsible for the bombings yesterday.
