Here are two emails I happened to read today on Goanet.
SELMA WROTE: If anyone thinks I am joking and that it won't happen to Goa, I urge them to visit Mangor hill of Vasco. What was once the abode of proud Vasco Gaunkaris is now a slum. In the morning, one can wake up to the delicious smell of human sewage wafting through the air as one makes their way to white-washed Church and children filtering in to schools, holding on to the last vestiage of a civilised life. ALEXYZ's CARTOON *** Santa in Goa *** Cocaine....Heroin...LSD...Hash...Ectasy...Etc... "This is quicker than commuting by Reindeer" These were two posts I happened to read, there may be others. Your honour, I rest my case. George --- On Tue, 12/28/10, Frederick Noronha <[email protected]> wrote: > George, this is too cynical a view.
