Thoughtful Thieves!

Thoughtful Thieves!

Here's a story (From Mumbai Mirror, October 31, 2007) of a senior citizen who is grateful to a couple of thieves who had, probably in a rare attack of conscience, posted Mulani's precious senior citizens' card back to her two months later.

Sad smiles, Glad Smiles

Dear Folks,

Today's Economic Times, Chennai carried two articles that caught my attention for entirely different reasons - one made me happy to be an Indian, the other made me feel a bit sad being an Indian. Both brought smiles to me, nevertheless!

Here's the link for the two articles:

1. Indianness is for showing-off by Bhanu Pande (http://epaper.timesofindia.com/Repository/ml.asp?Ref=RVRDSC8yMDA3LzEwLzI4I0FyMDAyMDE=&Mode=HTML&Locale=english-skin-custom) - made me glad and also proud to be an Indian
2. Too much monkey business by Mythili Bhusnurmath (http://epaper.timesofindia.com/Repository/ml.asp?Ref=RVRDSC8yMDA3LzEwLzI4I0FyMDA3MDA=&Mode=HTML&Locale=english-skin-custom) - made me sad - that after 60 years after Independence, we are still not able to take better care of our Capital (not a remote village in interior Bihar, TN or Orissa)

Enjoy reading both the above links.

Regards,

N
