Dear Floriano, This is what I was hoping would not happen. I for one am aware that you are relatively different, but the fact that you fell short of stating your disdain in no uncertain terms, brought about this valid response from Rajan. It is valid because of the stakes involved as you would know. At the very least do what none of the other politicians ever do/ and perhaps never will--tender a full apology, even including for the fact that you wished the Timblo scion well. The apology may get dismissed out right but it would still have been tendered. And considering that one is rarely proferred by Goanetters leave alone Goan politicans that says a little bit. As it has been said: Its better to light a candle than curse the darkness. The point is, damned if you do and damned if you don't. Its moral relativism time for you. Furthermore be precise in your logic (this forum appreciates logic as you know).
Also forget about ever talking money from any of these guys, unless it it to be put directly into a project and supra above board OR you are able to fight tool and nail. Not for mounting a campaing for an election. I know it is eay for me to say this. But look at the pens that are massedon the horizon. But one cannot expect any reprieve now that your every action and language will be perceived and analyzed, rightly by r, or brusquely by others who will now pile on. Bless you bro. Do the right thing if this makes sense. Btw, I heard a joke somehwere where even Satan is miffed that the Goans have been putting off the fires in hell. The Goans in heaven are demanding biryani.
