... asked him if he what he would do if he owned his own rickshaw. His friend quickly replied that he would have more than enough to feed his family and could even put some money away. Devdas' gave him the money to buy a rickshaw and, out of gratitude, he returned the cost of the rickshaw (although it wasn't really a loan) giving Devdas the idea that this model could be replicated for many other wishing to start a micro business. Devdas stumbled upon a concept that was working the world over ...
Washington DC, District of Columbia, United States mark.peters820... John Wilkes Booth has been re-evaluated as a delusional psychopathic egomaniac with an identity problem and a nagging wife. The guy needed a break. Lincoln is regarded in almost all opinions as our greatest president. Quotes from Abe: - How many legs does a dog have if you call the tail a leg? Four. Calling a tail a leg doesn't make it a leg. - It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very ...
Washington DC, District of Columbia, United States nietsreuef... to the sign and have a read it... Down the very bottom, in print it says something about not taking photos outside of the memorial.. Now okay this is fair enough, but there are no signs at the station, no signs along the walkway to the memorial.. Its only at the memorial that they make this fact clear.. So naturally, me being me, on returning to the police officers car, I almost got into an argument with him, but in my mind I just thought.. its not worth it, this guy is ...
Washington DC, District of Columbia, United States jakeyboy1989... lost because the lower level is pretty intricate. So I went out this one door and found a tiny room tucked away, with four single seats, a small bench for an altar, and mini stained glass windows. Out on the grounds, I discovered the Bishop's Garden. I think that's where I got the first of my dozen bug bites over the course of the week. It was a lovely garden though, with stone paths and brick planters and a water fountain and lawn and lots of good smelling herbs. Friday night we ...
Washington DC, District of Columbia, United States cestlavie... ate dinner with Lejano family people. Jenny was there and was closer to my age. :) what's weird is, I felt all non-tally when we first got there. I felt bad. But when we got to the restaurant, I loosened up and we were chatting it up :). I don't know what happened to me, I think I was in my unsocial moods, but luckily I was able to get out of that :). I also think that I was ...
Laurel, Maryland, United States jaybeebaby... is its architecture. In New England a common feature of houses is the steep roofs which help the snow to fall to the ground. In Chicago office buildings a large plate glass window is bordered on each side by serviceable opening window so as to provide both ventilation and light before the advent of air conditioning. But what I believe to be the traditional style of American architecture is seen is towns and cities from Boston to Washington: red brick ...
Washington DC, District of Columbia, United States acfnoel... the chatting Alexis & I went for a walk around the campground. Once the sun went down we could hear some weird sounds. Didn't sound like any birds I had ever heard. Then I saw what it was...BATs. The creepy, ghost house, makes your spine tingle, kind. They were everywhere. Luckily they stayed in the trees. We just had to listen to them all night long.
Washington, District of Columbia, United States cobra1899... t get anywhere near it. Tourists group around a couple of fences for a few snatched shots of the building and seem to spend most of the time jostling for space with the inevitable protesters calling for George's head on a plate. Opposite one end of the White House is Lafayette Park, where protesters regularly held camps and rally's. Following 9/11 draconian laws were brought in restricting the right of protest - the Supreme Court ruled that anyone there before ...
Washington DC, United States robfrumkin... was very quiet with just the occasional person stopping past. Mainly the regulars too. Still, all the gimmicks had gone and that was what everyone wanted! I was sat reading a journal when one of my Oxford colleagues turned up - huzzah, some company at last!!! The last 2 hours went very quickly having someone to chat to on the stand. I filled in all the shipping forms before 7pm so when it came to packing up we just put it all in the yellow cylinder and handed the paperwork ...
Washington, District of Columbia, United States loxias... armed! Every inch is also covered by CCTV, and snipers on a lot of roofs. Rumour has it that there is also a Surface to Air Missile silo protecting the White House and Capitol Building as well! Now thats safe! Finally we went to Arlington Cemetary, which was incredibly sombre. There are military graves from every conflict that the US has served in. There are thousands of graves there inc JFK. After JFK, the most famous of ...
