It’s a small world


You may not what is in store for you. Really it’s a surprise to meet your Bangalore roommate in somewhere a remote county in US and be a roommate again. That’s what happened to me. I was initially reluctant to take up the new project as the location was remote and crime stats are not so good and high cost of living. But that was the only option left out for me in the multiple choice question. Place is Bensalem and 30 miles from Philly, PA. Hoping that my stay will not get extended in Hotel ExtendedStay more than a week, I started to Bensalem. And here comes the surprise, I met my friend in the client location. Rightnow sharing an apartment with him, but big task lies ahead. Need to setup family here – No, not in that way. Need to book an apartment here and arrange for a travel for my wife.

This place is 1 hour drive from NY and NJ. Most of the ‘desi’ guys here in the apartment commute to NY or NJ for work on daily basis. Rent is pretty high, 1200 for 2B2B or 900 for 1B1B – definitely not worth for an older apartment. But this is supposed to the ‘safer’ place when compared to other townships in lower bucks county. Hopefully I should get one within a month or so. Let’s wait and watch.

And plan for long weekend? As replied to my manger: “Am going to India”. If I have an option, I would prefer that.

Sacramento Trip

A villager exploring unmapped area in the ages of empire game. That’s how I felt during the weekend trip. After being long time here(?!!!), there was not much, I visited apart from the guest house, Wal-Mart and the Pakistani store to buy Indian goods. There will be a plan in place by Wednesday for weekend, but never worked out. Some times project reasons, some time personal reasons. Last weekend, weekend plan was again cancelled for the 79.56th time since my room mates’ manager is not good and he hates spending time with his family.

Villager (that’s me) started his exploration on his own with pocketful of bits (Maps / directions). Sunday morning started to Sacramento which is 10 miles from here, my current place. It’s really nice to see there are lots of information available everywhere in the downtown with neat sign boats. Never had a single problem nor enquired with anyone about the directions. First to start with went to a Church (Chinese one?), then explored every place I could see on the way to Capitol. Bunch of information available near to the church about the Downtown area and Old Sacramento. Information is in the form of free brochures. Arnold was not working on that weekend, hence couldn’t meet him in Capitol building. Had lunch in ChinaTown – checked and crosschecked with them that the food doesnot have anyother “meat” other than chicken, in particular - pork and beef.

Old Sacramento is the top visitor spot in the region, attracting 5 million visitors annually and this city keeps the California Gold Rush era alive (as overheard). Apart from the horse cart ride, most fascinating one is the bikes that are available for ride. Mostly Harley Davidson ones, with engine sound tuned on. Couple of modern bikes likes Suzuki, Honda, too available. And make a note of this guys, never visit the Sacramento river area when you are hungry. Roasted Crabs smell makes you forget everything and your next target will be Joe’s Crab shack. Delta King boats offers you ride over the Sacramento river. Two bridges opens up when these huge boats cross (Why they didn’t calculate the height of these boats during construction of those bridges?!!!) Reached home by 8PM.

And finally this is how a villager explores in AOE:

தமிழ் பதிவும் சோதனை ஒட்டமும்...

இது என்னுடைய 5வது வலைபதிவு. மற்ற வலைபதிவுகளிலிருந்தும் google உதவியாலும் இந்த தமிழ் மென்பொருள் கிடைத்தது. முழுவதும் unicode முறையால் english தட்டச்சு செய்யப்படுவது முழுக்க தமிழில் கிடைக்கிறது. ஆனால் நான்கு வரி தட்டச்சு செய்ய சுமார் 15 நிமிடம் தேவை படுகிறது. சிறிது பயிற்சிக்கு பின் இது குறையலாம்.

Some of the updates done to this page overnight:

1. Completely revamped the look and feel - Changed to new template and customised that for Tamil Unicode.
2. Added Hit counters
3. Added site search
4. Added Photo

இதோ என்னுடய blog site புதிய உடை உடுத்திக்கொண்டு அமர்க்களமாக தயராகி கொண்டு இருக்கிறது. comments and suggestions வரவேற்கப்படுகின்றன.

Shakira - Hips Dont Lie

Till I research on how to post and customize my blog page, enjoy the latest video album of Shakira - Hips dont lie (Hips?!!!)



Have fun :-)

Testing... Err.. Testing...

This may be a surprise for visitors to see a person who created an blog account as early as 2003 and publishing his 3rd blog in this 4 years and still thinking which language to choose for further blogs....

Yeah, blog, blogging and bloggers are little surprise to me from the time I was introduced to these areas. This may be too late, where bloggin is in full swing now, but still I'm still not out of my curosity to whom am writing my stories, success, failures.... Whos' going to read that and why? Is it something like reading my personal diary? oh Yeah, what will those readers if I dont blog for day or a week? Will they move to another blogger site to read about his/her "works"?

Oh boy, what did you do when you read other's diary(blog)? I do have a list of blogs and I do visit often to see their updates. Joy, events, failures, they discuss about all. Sometimes interesting, sometimes boring and sometimes like the popular TV ads - have a crowd pulling title, and write irrelevant things in blog. Yes, now I made up to mind to scrible things in the blog site - no matters there are audiences / fan clubs / nakeerans - And make a note of this guys - Blog will be both in english and tamil.

Still researching on the fundamentals of unicode and tamil typing. Hopefully my next blog will be in Tamil.

and the testing continues....
