Hi,
 
I am just coming from a birthday party of one of my seniors - on a hip hop street full of night clubs. It was the worst party of my life - surely.
 
I had 3 resasons for going to that party -- and none was fulfilled .
 
One - my landlord needed to get married - so excellent for him to attend this bash thrown by a South Indian girl -- he got a boil in the tongue and wanted to study for his PMP - Project Management Professional exam -didn't come.
 
Second - to network with other seniors -- noone else was there.
 
Thrid -- to get some free food --- most surprisingly --even the water was to be paid for. Not even a brithday cake - even when we returned from our jaunt outsiude later for a few minutes
 
Thankfully, my spolit brat room mate - US brought up - led the way out just after 5 minutes -- and he got drunk with 5 shots of rum - neat - and one beer - in another bar. We did meet another group - one guy from Bangalorew --who were studying with Infosys Chairman Murthy's son  at Cornell Univ.
 
Now my drunk roomy is lying on a subway rail platform bench - despite an Orange level security alert - against South ASians in suspicious activitiues - talk about American Born Confused Desis (he is already overdraft from his bank - on his frist week in the job).
 
It is better to have an intelligent enemy than a foolish friend.
 
What a life!
 
Umesh
 
PS: And we had to run half a mile to reach in time to escape the $5 cover charge per person after 10:30 pm. -- feeling hungry still
