America

During our F2F meeting here in Alpharetta, I came across this american expression: "Hindsight is 20/20". While researching this expression, I found this interesting site phrases.org

Yesterday, I had my "Wal-mart experience".

I have been noticing various things American - like the Coca Cola Classic 12oz Can. Measuring things in Fluid ounces is so alien to us - no wonder they call the foreigners as aliens. The other thing I noticed was the television commercials that advertise these cars which have a milage in MPG - Miles per Gallon

Coincidently, I was reading the copy of NewsWeek back at the hotel which quoted - America, Myanmar and Liberia are the only three countries in the world that use the Imperial System.

During my stay here for the past 10 days, I frequently used the Georgia 400.

Everything is BIG here.

First week in United States of America

It was my first week in United States of America.
Today, we kicked-off our EEM move to the NGDC. I also coded my first web service using WeLogic Workshop - was suprised how easy it was to do it.
