Thank God NW is retiring DC10's

Northwest is retiring their DC10's at the end of this month. Thank god. They are really old and I am scared to fly them. If you fly from Amsterdamn to Bombay, you will usually fly DC10 because they are old, i really mean old, and they know that Indian will make a mess anywhays. I travelled on one of those few years ago. I had a window seat. I leaned against the window. When the plane got on a runway and started take off roll, I felt that the the entire panel moved outwards by few inches. Now I know this happens at high altitude but on the runway, it was the first time I was experiencing that. Anyways, once you step pnth eplane, you quickly realize that they are old by the looks of it.

So now we get to fly A300's to India. Yeah.

Your Brain


This is bizarre - after you find the guy - it's so obvious. Once you find
him - it's embarrassing and you think, why didn't I see him immediately?

Doctors have concluded that if you find the man in the coffee beans in 3
seconds, your right half of your brain is better developed than most people.
If you find the man between 3 seconds and 1 minute, your right half of the
brain is developed normally. If you find the man between 1 minute and 3
minutes, then the right half of your brain is functioning slowly and you
need to eat more protein. If you have not found the man after 3 minutes,
the advice is to look for more of this type of exercise to make that part
of the brain stronger!!!

And, yes, the man is really there!!!

I want to work for Reliance

Well Mukesh Ambani just ordered 40 Audi Q7(?) SUV for top management at Reliance. Apparently they were all using Mercedes S500 so far but now Mukesh has decided to replace Mercedes with Audi. Lucky folks. I guess they deserve it.

On the side note: Indian just received their first new Airbus for their fleet.

More later.
