    HI
    I KNOW THERE ARE QUALITY CITIZENS IN THE USA
    JUST VOTE FOR SENATOR KERRY
    HOWEVER THERE REALLY IS SO MUCH NEGATIVE BEHAVIOUR BY AMERICANS IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY AND O/S
    FOR EXAMPLE
    GUN VIOLENCE, SCHOOL MASSACRES,CIA ELECTED GOVERMENT OVERTHROW, ECONOMIC SLAVERY IN LATIN AMERICA,AFRICA AND ASIA,MINDLESS REPRESSED TELEVISION PROGRAMMING, HOLLYWOOD MOVIES, OBESITY, MACDONALDS,REDKNRECKS AND FUNDAMENTALIST CHRISTIANS....ETC ETC

    AMERICANS DO HAVE A REASONABLE DEMOCRACY WITH SOME ACCOUNTABILITY, PRESS IS CRITICAL WITH INTELLIGENT CRITICISM, SO AT LEAST YOU CAN REMOVE A DUD PRESIDENT BY VOTING HIM OUT

  • william - Thursday, September 2, 2004 - link

    Anand, I have read your site for I guess several years now and have envied the life style you must have, playing all the time! I have never seemed to gotten over the young pictures of you in school that I saw when I first started following your site. For a little advice from an elder, all I can suggest to you, to make your marrage a happy one, is BE THE MAN in the marrage. There is such a thing as a 50/50 marrage and its called she owns you. LOL Good marrages need someone to be the leader and that is your RESPONSIBILITY. Not as master but as leader. She will respect you for it. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading your site and wish you the absolute best of futures. May the good LORD bless you.
