We have to hold tight till next Tuesday to see if change is really coming. I hope that they have learned their lessons with hanging chads and mission unaccomplished. Unlike others, you know where he wants to go and where he comes from. He can turn his dreams from this father into reality. Let’s hope Tuesday will be a new day.
For some, I can break their nerves. But I realise that I am a ball catcher rather than a ball pitcher. I can be a good sparring partner. So, pitch me a ball or throw me a punch.
Mauritius switches to summer time this Sunday. At 2am, it will be 3am. There will be 10 hours of difference between EDT and MUST. Here, we are switching to EDT a week after (Sunday 2nd Nov).
All systems should use UTC for time keeping purposes. You can then convert back to local time when needed.

I like to meet people who have a similar mind set like mine and share common values. Some say opposites attract but I don’t think so (tried it). Looking in the same direction is better than looking in opposite directions. Wasting my time arguing every day is not my cup of tea. Please poke me (again). Thanks.
