So I did wander near your post time and again but slunk off fearing untoward bursts of fireworks each time. But it turned out I was fooling none other than myself: I had to read it eventually. You have chosen the usual suspects for the game of missiles (made popular by President Trump's good friend Kim Jong-un) and even though they have been done to death by the grace of the Indian race you have managed to extract enough juice to leaven your piece. Doesn't that remind me of the sugarcane crushers who roamed the streets but a decade ago?umashankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04940072093576263799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579671752707276248.post-18383122661074372632017-10-30T21:19:15.631-07:002017-10-30T21:19:15.631-07:00I had no clue about these events.
