Heard yesterday about President Obama’s new team…Richard Holbrooke, George Mitchell as special envoys to Pakistan and Middle East. He also has Eric Holder (Attorney general) and Ron Emmanauel (Chief of Staff). I can understand Holbrooke as a tough man who did wonders in the Balkans for Clinton. Then why Hillary as Secretary of State? Who is going to talk to Zardari and the terrorists in Pakistan, is it Holbrooke or Hillary? I remember the same thing happened in the first Clinton Administration when the then Secretary of State ( I forget his name, an old man) was made to look redundant. Hillary is not going to allow her authority to be used by Holbrooke entirely. Why not include her elsewhere?

The economic downturn has affected everyone so much that you can get even services cheaper. One friend of mine bargained for a lesser tariff on cable television and phone if he took a year’s subscription in advance!Only be not afraid to ask or be embarassed to bargain.

Who is this new American Idol singer (Sanjaya)? He sounds like an Indian. He has even written a book on music.
