Bernado,

I appreciate the apology. Is your cabal asking you to unite Portugal with India 
or India with China?

Merry Christmas to you!

Cheers,

Santosh

Hi Selminha,

Do you have any news of your good friend Liza from the place called Doves on 
the 
Thames? Remember the good ole days on Goacom!

Regards and Merry Christmas

Dear BC,
You are one of those Goans that makes me ashamed of being one. Not one word 
that 

comes out of your mouth makes sense. To your good luck, water seems to have 
found its own level. You've finally found a cabal of fellow-Goans, all of who 
think exactly like you. 


Best,
Selma

Talking of birds and Indians (or non-Indians), check this out.

The Indian Myna — pushy and invasive

The Indian Myna, Acridotheres tristis, (also known as the Common Myna, Common 
Mynah, Indian Mynah) has earned the reputation of being one of the worst feral 
animals in Australia. It’s likely that if you live in Sydney, Melbourne, north 
Queensland or Brisbane, you’re already familiar with them.

as well as 

The common Indian myna bird is fast becoming Australia's number one feral 
enemy! 
In autumn, mynas start to aggregate in large flocks - providing the perfect 
opportunity to trial a new trap that could finally provide a way to remove 
these 
clever and aggressive pests.

RESPONSE: Now that was the cheekiest retort, I have ever seen on Goanet! I
too clicked on to the site and was wondering, put on smile or is it genuine?
It is Santosh, not Santos (not saint) of course, no need to take the Mickey!
I too spent a lot of time with the birds, but heaven forbid that I would
want to pick their brains - their fine feathers and posturing was enough for
me to dance around!

Since it is the season of goodwill, here is my contribution:-

After all, spending hours, days, months and years, studying ‘Complex behaviour
and disorders’ in birds; there is need of some place for displacement. Goanet
in this case. Otherwise like I quoted once before : “ He who sleeps with the

Santosh's quote  "   The problems that Goa faces today have nothing to 
do with India or the Portuguese. They have nothing to do with invasion, 
colonialism,  liberation, independence, freedom fighters, democracy, 
religion, intellectuals or lack thereof. The blame lies entirely with 
the people   of Goa. It boils down to basic honesty, integrity, concern 
for fellow human beings, and respect for our heritage and natural 
environment,  all attributes that reside within the individual.  Those 
who are blaming others and finding excuses of one sort or another are 
themselves part of the problem in the first place. "


I think Santosh is right up to a point,  because one cannot entirely 
dismiss the influence of historical events which in turn trigger all 
kinds of social, economic and political developments which can be 
overcome if well and intelligently managed with strong leadership with 
vision.


Goa's tragedy is the fact that  the quality of leadership and 
politicians that came to power in Goa after 1961 was bad and became 
gradually worse. How much lower this leadership will sink, entirely 
depends on people in Goa.
