Or if i find time, i'll jump into the blogworld from Mandalay and rattle off there.<BR/> So you are calvin in your latest avatar!! And how's everything on the blogchaat front? Hope the climb is steady. Will drop in some time later. Take care.<BR/><BR/> Val....Thanks for the info. I'll definetly read kiplings poem. Somehow the word 'Mandalay' is very mysterious and soothing. It's the same with some names--they have a magical quality in them.<BR/> Hope everthing's fine and fantastic with you. Thanks for dropping by.<BR/><BR/> Sankie...Long time since we met(in the blogworld, of course). Yeah, you're right...not many people know about burma--everyone's obsessed with India or china. I think you can write about your country, about your familiarity with its culture and ethos. It would make for a fascinating read.Vishwahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10212671896677162784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15131931.post-1137848071506073712006-01-21T18:24:00.000+05:302006-01-21T18:24:00.000+05:30Vishwa - I think Mandalay is a town in Burma http:...Vishwa - I think Mandalay is a town in Burma http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandalay<BR/>But it was made famous in British Empire times by Rudyard Kipling's poem "Mandalay" http://raysweb.net/poems/mandalay/mandalay.html<BR/>Thats the librarian in me coming out!
