New Friends and old ones

Many of my old friends have moved out of town except for a sparingly few ones...I miss them a lot ....but life goes on...making new friends is not easy for me....but still I keep in touch with my old friends...few calls...few mails...few sms....rare letters and cards...and a lot of forwarded mails have kept our friendship going....and few times a month we talk in yahoo chat....few of them are able to spare time now...with their family and looking after thier kids they hardly get time for friends....we meet once in a few months....exchange news...and part....for some months I haven't made new friends...just acquiantances....

Election results

The results were out on 11th May....Quicker results due to the EVM's...by 11 AM it was decided in most places....The Left swept the polls in West Bengal and Kerela and the congress won in Assam and Pondy...No single party has secured majority in Tamil Nadu...But the DMK is forming the government today with the support of Congress and PMK from the outside...How the DMK is going to fulfill the promises of the election manifesto is a big question mark in the minds of many...The verdict of the people...let's see how long it lasts...
