Life in Delaware

"How is life in Delaware? Do you like life here in states more than India?"
No place could be better than ur homeland…. I do like the ppl here.. their attitude and concern that they have about their SAFETY n SECURITY. I do appreciate the concern these ppl have on these issues but some times it gets funny…
For me the India is my homeland and this country always remains to me just a foreign land, and so I love more to be in India (especially Jamshedpur) than in any other place.
Though I do not deny the fact that, India lies much behind this country in Tech, security.. etc etc but then we have the best culture. Some people may not agree to this view of mine as they may have found this place to be the best place on earth and may have forgotten their origin and so would like saying India is a shit place….. but again those are just views… so guys no concerns n no hard feelings… just pour on ur views!!

US Driving... an experience

Well frnds i would like to share my experience of driving in the foren land here. :-)

The other day I was on the Interstate Highway, to go to an indian grocery store, since i was going there for the first time, I relied on the chap sitting next to me to navigate me. We missed a turn and to get to our correct route I took the next EXIT ....and then we were lost....
I came down to a narrow lane, that could do nothing but take us into the woods. :-(
I took some right.... some left... and we had no knowledge then which direction we were heading for!

My frnd said " i guess we r goin south... or is it north? no i feel west"..... "shutup" said I.
We had no map and no magnometer with us.
Suddenly at a small crossing i saw a sign board that i thought might take us to the roads we have travelled b4.... BUT for that i had to take the left turn... and the lane i was in would not allow me to take a left so the US road rules forced me to continue futher on the Roads Less Travelled and left us wondering of the destination. Only good thing was that it was'nt dark then or else God knows were we would have been.
Finally some how, i swear i do not know how, so don't ask me.... we came back to a road that would put us back on the I-95.... so we could come back home.... doing nothing just burning some gas...

You known guys... the fact that u can't ask anyother travellers for the direction here, sucks.... if u do ask... they will look at u as if u r an alien... and more to that U can't put ur car on the reverse gear to make up for ur mistake.

so, that was all abt my Driving experience (or u may say adventure) in US of A

Happy Driving!!
