coca-cola out of order in india !!!
Rencently i heard the news that University of Michigan is probating coke for its action in India and Columbia. Seems like Coke is on a tight leash in India for the horrible things they did ... 30% more pesticides than acceptable levels - I wonder how much coke i drank when i was in India last time. But thats not all .
According to the site Coca-Cola in India is Guilty of:
Causing Severe Water Shortages for Communities Across India
Polluting Groundwater and Soil Around its Bottling Facilities
Distributing its Toxic Waste as "Fertilizer" to Farmers
Selling Drinks with Extremely High Levels of Pesticides
more about this here. I am impressed by Amit Shrivastava - someone behind the cause.

my car is for sale !!!!
Recently i have put my car on the market to see how much it can get. Also there is a more sensible reason to it. We have one parking spot but two cars in d'town seattle and parking is freakin' expensive to rent. With all the mortgage payments et al we have decided to get rid of one of them. I love this car and if you want to buy it - you better take care of it. I am sure you will.

keep riding !!!
