He told me that, although he didn't know the soldier, he had delivered the news of his passing to the soldier's family and felt as if he knew them after many conversations in so few days.<BR/><BR/>I turned back to him, extended my hand, and said, 'Thank you.

He died at the age of 94 at Wellington early last Friday. <BR/><BR/>It's still unbelievable that a government formed by Indians would be so rude and indifferent to the greatest military leader India has produced post-independence, to use the words of former army chief General V.P. Malik. Rare are the heroes of a nation admired by commoners as their idol, inspiration and icon.<BR/><BR/> Manekshaw was one such hero India always looked up to with pride and excitement. A government that decided to lower the national flag for three days as a mark of mourning when the Pope died didn't send its defence minister to attend the funeral of Field Marshall Manekshaw; nor did it allow the other two service chiefs to attend.tqmcintlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10230158250240886859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11610993.post-83151399911778932002008-07-24T19:32:00.000+10:002008-07-24T19:32:00.000+10:00VEST did your bruised and battered ship ever dock ...VEST did your bruised and battered ship ever dock <BR/><BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://tqmcintl.blogspot.com/2008/07/naval-dockyard-iso-9001-certified-yard.html" REL="nofollow">here?</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11610993.post-15918733497327923732008-07-24T18:04:00.000+10:002008-07-24T18:04:00.000+10:00women bloggers amaze me ....they have a topic ever...women bloggers amaze me ....<BR/><BR/><BR/>they have a topic every day to blog about<BR/><BR/>they talk more<BR/>lissen less<BR/><BR/>most topics are <BR/>I did this<BR/>I did that<BR/><BR/>I met X<BR/>I went to a party<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>men bloggers talk about ideas and are more interesting<BR/><BR/>what if all men were Gays?<BR/>what if VEST becomes Prime Minister of Australia?<BR/><BR/>and I of IndiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11610993.post-71179481581630076802008-07-24T14:03:00.000+10:002008-07-24T14:03:00.000+10:00Very swiving funny .. heh.Very swiving funny .. heh.Davohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02785126939071213905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11610993.post-10655616156956133452008-07-24T12:15:00.000+10:002008-07-24T12:15:00.000+10:00The Living Statues Two statues stood in a city par...The Living Statues <BR/><BR/>Two statues stood in a city park: one female and the other male. These statues faced each other for many years. <BR/>Early one morning, an angel appeared before the statues and said, "Since the two of you have been exemplary statues and have brought enjoyment to many people, I am giving you your greatest wish. I hereby give you the gift of life. You have 30 minutes to do whatever you desire." <BR/><BR/>And with that command, the statues came to life. The two statues smiled at each other, ran toward some nearby woods and dove behind a couple of bushes. The angel smiled to himself as he listened to the two statues giggling, bushes rustling, and twigs snapping. <BR/><BR/>After fifteen minutes, the two statues emerged from the bushes, satisfied and smiling. <BR/><BR/>Puzzled, the angel looked at his watch and asked the statues, "You still have fifteen minutes. Would you like to continue?" <BR/><BR/>The male statue looked at the female and asked, "Do you want to do it again?" <BR/><BR/>Smiling, the female statue said, "Sure.

The father ran his hands up and down the horse's legs, face, and rump. The little boy asked, "Dad, what are you doing?" The father replied, I'm interested in buying this horse and I'm checking it out." The little boy's eyes became as big as saucers and he blurted out, "Dad, we have to go home now!"

This scandal has lowered the dignity of our parliament," he told reporters, adding the party had video evidence of money changing hands.<BR/><BR/>"Never in the history of our parliament has such a shameful and revolting scandal unfolded," he said, after BJP lawmaker Ashok Argal and two other interrupted proceedings by producing bags stuffed with 1,000-rupee notes.<BR/><BR/>State television's coverage of the debate was immediately interrupted and images of Mother Teresa were broadcast instead.<BR/><BR/>Officials in parliament said Chatterjee had called in New Delhi's police chief to investigate the bribery claims.<BR/><BR/>A spokesman from the Congress party, Rajeev Shukla, immediately rejected the allegations.<BR/><BR/>"What is the evidence to suggest that the Congress has given the money?" he said, adding that the BJP deputies - having apparently accepted the bribes - would themselves be "liable to criminal proceedings."<BR/><BR/>Another Congress spokesman said the allegations were made because the BJP knew it could not win the vote.AFPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11610993.post-22520843074725713442008-07-24T11:58:00.000+10:002008-07-24T11:58:00.000+10:00Goshhow did Kai get here???Kai this blog is not de...Gosh<BR/>how did Kai get here???<BR/><BR/><BR/>Kai this blog is not decentAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11610993.post-78080417390494226832008-07-24T11:49:00.000+10:002008-07-24T11:49:00.000+10:00Vest pal, you couldn't have said it better, yep!
