I attended his Funeral Mass, R.I.P. Fred really would be my choice for the write up, My own experience: I have learnt a lot being on Goanet. It took me sometime but I think I have fathomed most on this forum, from the attention seekers to the flashers and those who are sorry for themselves - life has short changed them. This forum has been a boon for me to get off my chest all the gripes and injustices or perceived that I have had. This forum is undoubtedly a powerful house, few input but I am sure the audience is huge! Also the those who have a problem with having been Colonised by the Portuguese, who protest vehemently and those who are quite happy to affiliate with the Portuguese. I was born in Nairobi, Kenya - my sentiments are those fostered on me by my parents; Viva Goa, Viva Portugal and since the World Cup beckons Viva Brasil - A south American team to win? My only gripe: someone calls me shameless and in return I am not allowed to return the coin! Okay so moderators have a difficult task! -- DEV BOREM KORUM Gabe Menezes.
