John Muir was america's preservationist,he wanted wild lands not to be touched at all . and had a great fight with G Pinchot who was a coservationist and for wise use of nature's resources. John's writings led to establishment of many national parks such as yellowstone and founding of the sierra club. Audobon was another environmental pioneer and com
I am a nature lover. America the current king of modern tech and destroyer of nature had also many nature poets and nature lovers, some almost mystical. Such as John Muir, Rachel carson, Audobon. One of them is Walt Whitman, whom I have not read in detail though leaves of grass etc in excerpts. But I still faintly remember what I read long ago in univ library
I prefer spiking whisky or better still rum to black lemon tea. Try it. ok ?
mmm thats a common problem, i also dunno when a girl says no. Many a times she says no, and i still go ahead. And they really did not mean no, ultimately. Luckily I did not go though too many such experiences. Thank god, yes !
My current favs?, thats difficult to say. I listen to Aqua, some eminem, Spears etc. And I like ghazals a lot, if you know what I mean.... especially Jagjit Singh, Chitra Singh and Ghulam Ali and also a pakistani singer called Adnan Sami. What do you do, if I may know?
Thats hilarious Draginol,I like it!
Thats what corporate beaurocracy is all about. I can understand your frustration and angst. Sometimes we are pushed against a wall-familiar feeling. Sorry, I can only commiserate with you.
WiseFawn,thanks. All you remember it so well. Yes I used to like , Yesterday Once More a lot too, dream-like tunes. I dont remember the movie you mentioned,sorry. Yes, I like beatles too, do you like neil diamons too?
If I have to die now and take only one memory with me, it will be either a rising sun on the distant horizon, or jasmine aroma-filled full moon night or a lotus about to blossom.... or me on my grandma's back long,long ago and she singing me a lullaby: "tha that thabungton nacha morambi pobige pobi sanam nambige heibong charong amata thadabirak-u thabung-ton"! free translation of the above: " oh m

Thanks citahellion, I will check the gnu site. And also thanks to you AR-15, I will check the Dev C too. But how do I use the free Borland without the editor?
I whole-heartedly agree with you sally. Yes we can share and exchange our opinions. Sometimes, all that the other person wishes is for you to listen and understand his/her opinion, thats enough. Remember, the key word is understand . To understand another's opinion does not neccessarily means agreeing with her(his) opinion,right?
Yeah, same thing here. I often read an engrossing book in night, thinking that I will just read a chapter or so. Then I cant put it down, goes to the next chapter and so on, sometimes finishing the whole book in one go. All these, realizing in the back of my mind that next day I must get up early and do important work. Same goes with beer guzzling sessions too. or fantasizing about me with a bevy of pretty
Long ago, I listened to a carpenters cassette. One of the songs was, "wait....mr postman, wait....". As it was so long ago, I dont remember its lyrics. But its tune still haunts me, like adolescent love. I also liked some other numbers but do not remember now. Can anyone remember them. BTW, what were the popular groups when carpenters group
Is Manipur burning out of control? Manipur, a tiny landlockes north eastern state of India bordering Myanmar is simmering with discontent, and the fire if not doused properly may soon go out of control, reducing ,at least, a little slice of the great Indian democracy to ashes. And mind you once it goes to ashes, it will not arise again like the legendary phoenix.
I have been read Da vinci code yet but your blog makes it so tempting. I will probably read it soon. Did you read Alchemist by Coelho- a grest book, if you are interested in man's quest for the meaning of his self and soul.
Very right there! But so also are the other ministers in the present govt. Look at how Shibu Soren had to resign at the last moment and disappear without a trace and Laloo Yadavs and his ilk and their taited problems. You did not say anything regarding how the hon'ble Home Minister is handling the volatile situation in Manipur, after the alleged rape and murder of Th Manorama, a local girl on June 11. Manipur has been simmering since then but the home
Yes, religion must not be blind faith. Whatever we do, irrespective of how religious we are, must be a conscious choice. That's why I prefer the word, 'spirituality' to religiuosness!
I have a parakeet named BOBO and he only imitates my voice!
I bet you must be pretty!
Why bother about the mid life crises? Take things as they come. But ,of course, when I see pretty girls, I sometimes wish I was younger. Otherwise, I dont bother much about mid-life or any-life crises. What do yuo say?
Yes education is about drawing out your innate abilities. It's about learning how to learn. But,more importantly, it's also about how to unlearn many of the things you learnt, esp. after the internet age.
Yeah, nice idea. I myself dont like to believe in fate. But are we not condemned in some sense like Sisyphus to keep rolling up our own 'burdens' up this steep hill called 'life'?
Yes you are right. We must all be careful about AUs and also irresponsible RUs. We have to blog sensibly without hurting others' sentiments.
Ok guys, I am sorry, I withdraw my comments on my blog "this site still sucks". Please forgive me. But do not forget me, I lost track for some time,okay?
Does anybody know the websites where I can download free c/c++ compilers. I used to write c programs but I am going out of practice. I want to get back to thr C spirit again but the commercial compilers are so espensive. Any free download sites on the net?
