India Trip Highlights!

NOTE THESE AREN'T COMPLETE...but some are downright hilarious!

- Highway road signs not saying detour/tunnel ahead, but... VILLAGE AHEAD!!!

- I was on my way to home @ Pune from Mumbai in a coach, & at around 6am, while nicely driving along a bridge I started to wonder why on Earth there were cars on the other half of the bridge going in the same direction. I didn't initially think much of it figuring it was a one-way bridge, cuz there was another nearby, until.....A BUS WENT SCREECHING BY TO THE RIGHT!

- Same bus ride, my mom & I (2 people that have absolutely any clue about where to find anything in Pune), ended up giving the driver directions to drop somebody else off!!! Mind you this is a job they do on a daily basis!

- The awesome waterfalls, canyons, gorges, hills, mountains, plains, cows, donkeys... ON Car Rides. I also happened to notice a boating service close to a waterfall (at the top where the water fell). Small wonder no one was there. SIDE NOTE: POTHOLES! POTHOLES! POTHOLES!

- Standing in the Mithai (indian sweet) shop (Karachi Sweets) in the morning, with the power gone, so it's a bit dark....and a customer comes in and says...the powers out!
shop attendant says sarcastically: "Gee I haven't noticed! (turning to me) Have you???". (turns back to the other guy) "Boy you must be really observant!"
(K it was funnier in Hindi/Sindi)

- Saw several temples during the week. They are very beautiful, some are just plain stunning to look at.

- Visited a couple of my Uncle's contractor sites... and they were alright...just a container with a couple of office desks and mounds of gravel, cement & asphalt (ass-fault :P)

- Uncle showing me his entire wardrobe, and while showing me a blue shirt:
"Nice Shit yeah?"
I could do nothing but concur! I have to be respectful ;)

- Eating Misal Pao, which was bloody spicy. The top of the mutkee (the vegetable)...was all red!!! :D

- Eating Dhai Pooris (amazing stuff) in a rickshaw, while it was raining.

- GOING TO A BRAND NEW GYM....FOR DINNER!!!! Tehehehe! The view there was Gnarly!!!

- Sleeping in the afternoon!

- Spiderman in Hindi! AHAHAHAHAHA!

- Rickshsaws. DA-DANG!!! DA-DANG!!! DA-DANG!!! ahahaha vrrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

- Supposed to take 1 hour shopping on this street called Laxmi Road. My mum, & aunt decide to join me. OH BHOY!
1h 45mins later, we only ended up finishing 1/8 of the road, stopping in 4 shops and 1 mini-mall.
Best part is, whereever we tarried, I had to make the decision, EVEN ON SKIRTS MY MOM  WANTED TO GET FOR A FRIEND!

- My cousin driving a bike on the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic e.g. 20 oncoming bikes all speeding in our direction!

- Balancing while holding Faludas (Ice-cream) in one hand and flowers in the other on the back of my cuz's bike!

- Not being hit even once, even though there are almost no road signs, and very few traffic lights. Turns out traffic just goes around you, not through you!

- On one long car ride back, one uncle started complaining about getting home really late, meaning that he'd miss his favourite soaps. My other uncle then starts dissing him, saying how can he follow all that nonsense where one person marries one person, then falls in love with a second, has a child with a fourth, and does something or the other with the 3rd who happens to be the firsts cousin, finally ending up with 6 kids in this musical chairs of marriage, while marrying her husband's father!
After this he bemoaned the fact that all the show times had changed so he couldn't watch his favourite comedy shows.

After this they argued about vegetables and helpers cooking them.

Hearing all this, my mom & I couldn't stop laughing!

- Finally I saw an Old man with a cane, nicely, peacefully taking a leek right at the entrance gate, on the wall, of a primary school!

Been listening to the Ricky Gervais podcast....and Karl Pilkington is phenomenal! I love his random monkey news stories. Although they're all fake. Very interesting.

Quote from Karl (in the podcast):
"What does a goat give you?"
Ricky and Steve: "Milk"
"Right, now wouldn't it be easier, just to send a bottle of milk."

-On Oxfam's scheme, where people donate $$ so Oxfam can give goats to people in the 3rd world.

Other random news:

Strong-groin Indian seeks push-up record

An Indian martial arts instructor who has a Guinness record for breaking slabs of concrete on his groin is awaiting confirmation he set a push-up record. OWWWWW!!!


Beer and Biofuel finally come together to great effect

Yesss...Biofuel i.e. Vegetable oil runs really well in Diesel Engines. Here's a bloody good example.

Seagate leaks 750GB Barracuda 7200.10

Somebody I know managed to fill 250GB in a couple of days with downloaded shows and all. Thankfully for him...and I guess most of us, there's a new hard drive that's 750GB!!! Soon Terabytes...and PETABYTES!!! AWESOME!

Finally...

Lion Mutilates 42 Midgets in Cambodian Ring-Fight!!!

Apparently, the story was that there was a fight between a lion and the Cambodian Midget Wrestling League, and the lion won, mutilating all 42!!! BUT it's a story!!! Not real...but interesting nonetheless. Makes for great reading. AHAHAHA!

Just finished watching History of the World, Part 1 by Mel Brooks. DOWNRIGHT HILARIOUS! Pure Genius! LOVE HIM...not that way! Can't wait to watch Blazing Saddles.
