Your constructive crticism is well taken, Haddock. Its just that I associate myself with the people with lil/no voice here in sajha. In this case, I took the Paulites who have always been looked at with jealousy by their counterparts in rival schools. So what if we're a "chatawalla", we still maintain out tradition of yore which all the other schools have forsaken…During the yesteryears, all British school-boys in Darj had to carry an umbrella (and this is a fact!!) as it was the "gentle-manly" thing to do but the tradition slowly died out as locals began to invade the exclusively white schools (and children of Indian administrators). BTW, I am proud of my upbringing and feel that any disrespect towards any of it constitutes that me being a man who learned and was raised by its system, be able to stand up for it. I wish it was more easy unlike this virutal webring, where we're able to physically knock some sense into the other person's head. However, I get what you're saying and thx for the constructive crticism! BC, aight, I agree you've got me here! BTW, the monks of the Xiaolin Temple were taught martial arts but they still maintained their red-robes and led a life of monkhood harming no living soul until someone attacked them/their value/religion, etc. Kindness is NOT weakness. In a similar scenario, I was raised at an institution and anyone attacking any part of it's values deserve a lil knock on the head. Anyway, I know it went a lil too far with Corda but am glad its over. Laterzz!!
