Harding Park Golf Course

I had been there before to watch a PGA tour. This time I went to play. It was some experience. We did the whole gig. 18 holes, riding around in golf carts, in a very presumptuous mode, analyzing the wind movement before teeing, comprehending the breaks during putting, all in vain. I got a 124 in a course which was 72 par. LOL. Pretty decent for a first timer though.

Highlights of the whole experience
- When Meghneel found out that the golf kit he bought the previous day was for left handers.
- When we started smoking "Cuban" cigars (as per my super-boss they were Cuban and were Romeo Y Juliet, the brand banned in US.)
- Rishi and I won as a team by 2 shots.

Golf is tiring though and even though we had plans till night, we just gave up and went home.

Now for 5 more songs from my top 25
Enjoy!!!

Gun Control on Trial

Should the government have restrictions on owning guns? Are guns a privilege or are they above federal regulations and a constitutional right of a person? A coin has two sides to it and this book definitely tries to get a hold of the other side in which people are pro-gun and believe it as a tool for self defense. The author states the second amendment and tries to justify a ban on gun control regulations or policies by using that as a base. There are numbers that suggests that gun control does not reduce hate crimes. Canada has a lot of gun proliferation and the crime rate there is next to nothing compared to the States. A very interesting book and a must read if you are ready to be influenced by arguments.

Works is as good as it gets. For the first time, I am enjoying something to do with work. It involves working long hours sometimes, but is definitely worth the effort. Mom is gonna come here mid-July and eagerly waiting for that. I was watching some countdown on TV which inspired me to make a list of my top 25 songs.

I shall start by mentioning 5 (in no specific order). Do listen to these if you haven't already.
This definitely doesn't have my no 1. So tune in later.
