Today they will track the neighbour’s cat on its nightly explorations of the neighbourhood, and brand it a terrorist in the process.<br /> The internet is the unseen predator preying on the minds of the gennext..and the people , morons fused on their couches like zombies. The brain is deadened by the insistent drone of the vuvuzelas. Enough to make one want to go back to the past , and beleve in the adage ‘Ignorance is bliss.’<br />All In all, another shot of nostalgia.. well done. Keep up the good work. Contact with us seems to have been productive.<br />Lots of love, chhabi.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3037008411487061209.post-55417482328276582272010-06-28T21:37:44.239-05:002010-06-28T21:37:44.239-05:00Patricia D'Mello:
