2 hrs before take off...

Just finished watching Al Pacino in 'Scent of a Woman' . The final speech on integrity by Col. Frank W Slade reminds me of people who stood up for me in life. Not an exact analogy , but Mr .Ananthakrisnan my Math tuition master in Saibaba Colony Coimbatore fits the bill. He for one believed that I could pass in Math .Through his unique style of coaching rather than instructing ,made me believe in my abilities. Somehow everytime i pass his house in Coimbatore my eyes search for that nameboard. Its not there anymore , I dunoo where he is or even if master is still alive. I still remember you Sir! Have to get a strong Starbucks cappuchino ,the LA heat is a barrier to the walk.I 'll do it for the double tall cappuchino:-)

Have done some crazy travelling in the month of April. I like Lufthansa more than Singapore air. Saw a lot of potholes in the roads at Detroit;that was a surprise! As i sit staring at the San Bernadino valley from my 16'th floor seat in LA ,i am reminded of one such lazy friday afternoon a few yrs back when this blog got created. I was in downtown Sacramento then. I think coming back to the US was a never an option for me,when i left this country in 2006. Makes me think a lot. I also visited my office in Coimbatore before i flew out to LA. The office is located at a very quiet spot in the backdrop of the western ghats. Its a nice place for a picnic . Oh yeah i saw Harold and Kumar -part 2 - not as good as the first one. I liked the bit when the FBI guys interrogate the parents , that was a laugh riot. Iron Man was super cool.
