[Assam] lighter note: lethargy vs jetset -small world

[umesh sharma]

Last Saturday my roommate was in Toronto, Canada (1500 miles from Washington DC). Just now - this Saturday he is in Mexico visiting his x-girlfriend. She was in her home in Toronto last week. 
We are hoping he will see off our current roommate at his hometown's airport in China when he flies on Dec 27 this month. He can fly free anywhere in the world as long as he is goes on weekends/holidays and is back to work on Monday!! China is just 20 hours away.

Plane travel seems to have made the world smaller. It took me two days (48 hours)to travel 1500 miles in India (I had never traveled by plane while in India).

Any comments about smaller world?

Today my new roommate (who was ex-roommate since Jan 2006) flew in from Toronto , Canada to sign  lease papers for our house. He had gone 150 miles to Canada only last evening on free flight thanks to his airline company. Today he canceled his second trip scheduled for tonight back to Canada (Montreal) to complete lease documents tomorrow.  

On the other hand, one who had moved only 20 miles out barely made it to today's meeting since he could not wake up on time and couldn't find time thus-- he is one of my newly ex-roommates who moved out last evening despite our protests to the contrary (our saying that he remain for today's [Saturday] lease meeting]. Where there is  a will there is  a way???
