RANDOM THOUGHTS

By EAVESDROPPER

I have started this Blog page 'RANDOM THOUGHTS' by EAVESDROPPER to share my thoughts, reactions, comments, opinions and feelings on the life around us through the magnifying glass of a socio-political satirist, and through the ability to read between the lines, of a political cartoonist. You may agree or disagree with me, but there will be enough for you to ponder over, take note of and be affected: that much I guarantee you!
