------------------------------------------------------- CONVENTION OF THE GOAN DIASPORA FROM GOA INTO THE WORLD Lisbon, Portugal June 15-17, 2007 Details at: http://www.casadegoa.org -------------------------------------------------------
I just wonder if the writer was ironically referring to the trauma felt by the vitims of loan sharking of her husband. Wow as MCS puts it - we have a Mother Teresa in the making. Goa has reached a stage where gondagiri, loan sharking, and corruption is all condoned. One can read the comments by writers such as V. Faleiro and N. Bhatcar in this respect. BC I must publicly state that I personally have the greatest respect and admiration for Jennifer. At a time when things were not exactly hunky dory in her home - which marriage does not hit, once in a while, a bad patch? - she stoically stood by her man, she loyally canvassed support for him, and when he won, she nurtured his constituency with a lot of devotion and exemplary compassion. She offered succour to the poor among Babush's supporters sincerely and generously, providing them medical facilities and free medication, even spending time with them by their bedside egging them on to overcome their difficulties. She is very intelligent, and has a mind of her own. ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Mail is the world's favourite email.
