Update 2 from the other side of the World......... First of all....to all the new people sorry I left your name off the
original e-mail. However thanks for the e-mails and notes. Sometimes
it is
hard for me to respond to all the e-mails because of time and the
system is
just real slow here. Anyway.......on with the fun. My latest
excursion
into the city.......

1-DRIVING - I feel that I have to touch on this again..........I'll put
it
to you this way......Chris Scronce half lit, smoking cigarettes,
reading a
newspaper doing 90mph on the way home from an ASU football game up I-90
from
Statesboro does not even come close to the experience of ridding around
here, Baloo can relate. These people have no sense of Pedestrian right
away....if your not a cow your in trouble. I almost ate it myself just
last
night. Stupid American crossed the street and looked right......too
bad all
the traffic was coming from the left. These people drive on the wrong
side
of the street.
2-SHOPPING - I went shopping last night for the 1st time, now that was
fun.
A girl here in the office (Veena) took us to the market. Let me tell
you
what, as soon as the Americans come out the prices went way up. It was
funny to watch this girl in action. She bartered and haggled
everything we
bought down to nothing. I watched her almost make a grown man cry
because
he was going to charge us to much. She went around for 10min and won
to get
us something for 60 rupees instead of 70 rupees. By the way, she saved
me
about 15 cents. But the experience was well worth it......
3-DRINKING - You knew it was only a matter of time. After all the
shopping
and dodging cars I was thirsty. So Venna took us to an authentic
Indian
Bar, The Hawaiian Shack. I'm not making this up.......it was something
right out of Gilligan's Island. Everybody wore Hawaiian shirts and the
music was all 80's all the time. Chris, you and I would live at this
place.
Venna's husband, Clint (who by the way was named after none other than
Clint
Eastwood) meet us out and started a bunch of trouble. Beers, shots of
Tequila, mixed drinks and this is just what he ordered me. It got bad
towards the end. Oh we also had authentic Indian food........french
fries.
I know, I'm daring.
4- HEAT - just in case you were wondering.......it's still damn hot.
5- PICTURES - yea, I would love to send you guys some but blame Scronce
for
that one to. The digital camera works great.....it's just the down
loading
to the laptop that causes a problem. Apparently the power supply to
plug in
the docking stations is nothing they have every scene here. Knocked
the
power out at the office.....twice. Knocked the power out in my hotel
room.......twice. People are starting to ask questions. So unless I
can
find a power supply and get these things on the laptop you may have to
wait
until I make it home. We shall see......
So this weekend we are planning a few trips around the city and we are
going
to catch some of the nightlife. There should be many more stories and
tales
after that. I can't wait and I will update asap. I hope everyone is
doing
well and I will see you guys soon. Take care..............
