    Don't tag Bombay as India.. .. In Bombay it might be.. but not everywhere.. Delhi is much better.. with the metro reaching everywhere, it would just become fantastic..

    Delhi...

    Actually, yes - Delhi is a lot more excitement than Bombay. Highest concentration of corrupt politicians, unsafe streets at late nights (especially for women), worst adherence to traffic rules in India... Yes, Delhi Rulez.

    What is Bombay in comparison?

    India's highest tax paying city?
    Just a financial cashcow being milked to install metros in Delhi?

    Greatest concentration of hard-working people?
    Generates 35% of India's Gross National Product - now, what's that good for - it doesn't even have a metro!

    (Okay, lets choose to forget the trains that run up and down the city every minute and carry more than 6 million passengers everyday - one half of all of what Indian Railways does!)

    // Seriously though, I got a feeling that someone who hasn't visited Bombay made that statement...

    Re: Your worst nightmares?

    Here I am ! ! ! !
    I have been away a long time, but now I back !!

    I'll tell a thing about recurring dreams, well it's true for at least my strange mind. When I wake up saying "I had this dream already once" it is just because during the dream "something" told me that it is a recurring one.... but reflecting when awake I realize I never had that dream before.

    For my worst nightmare.......

    I was a little child sitting on my bed waiting to fall asleep, watching to the weak light of the abatjour I used against my fear of the dark.... suddenly an humanoid creature of glowing orange light appeared standing still on my room's door, watching me with its evil eyes... even the creature didn't have eyes, mouth, nor face....
    It watched me for some instants.... then disappeared.

    Re: Your worst nightmares?

    Yeah, yeah, right Sid!.. I have never visited Bombay.. and about corrupt politicians.. that's everywhere

    It is good that you are loyal to your place and you cannot listen a word about it.. I am not actually from delhi, though I am working here but I am not biased about it

    I admit though that it is a nice place to enjoy life.. esp night life..

    What?

    You dont want to visit the city that gives the most to India?
    Strange.

    I don't think you will be successful in executing this constraint.

    Really? Perhaps, you missed the sarcasm in my second post.

    As for Bombay v/s Delhi - what I said had nothing to do with me being from Bombay - I quoted facts about the city, actually.
    No emotional stuff in there.

    Re: Your worst nightmares?

    The most scary nightmare I ever had in my life was about at around 13 years old....
    I was in a maze made of gray concrete walls running away from Fear following me..... when I reached a red metal door at the end of a tunnell. I started to knock, kick, scratch it but it didn't open..... in the highest moment of fear I waked up....

    Yes it is, I have the same dreams from time to time.

    Re: Your worst nightmares?

    In my worst nightmare, which fortunately it's happen not very often, I receive a letter from my Government that says I have to serve in army for one year. In my country before 2005 all 18 year-old boys had to spend one year of their life in army (now this is a work, a profession that people can choose), and so I did: but rarely this was a good experience (usually it was a boring year), and so it was for me.
    When I dream this subject, waking up is the best monent of day

    My sister's boyfriend was supposed to do something like that. He was born in Greece and lived there until he was 3, now he lives in the USA, but when he tried to get a passport from them(recently since his parents are moving back to Greece and hes staying) they refused to give him one because he didn't do the Army thing.

    Yeah, the army thing(conscription) is the worst thing a man can ever go through. Me and CBasicNet has been through it and not only does it drive you insane, it also wastes all your time and baby-producing abilities.

    Anyway, my only greatest fear of all is Time. I always feel pretty scared and freaked out when I think back how fast time flies and I'm already 22 and onto 23 next year, and when I reach 80 years old, I still haven't done much.

    Maybe it's time I start going around and start doing girls. Then, when I reach 80 years old and on my deathed and the angels descend down to take me away, they'll ask : "What have you done in your life to show the Lord?"

    And I'll answer : I've done girls, plenty of them. I shall now face the Father.
    (please angels, can I not go up there. Earth is a really great place)

    See you,
    Xeon.
