… which raises the obvious question… “How many “karats” was it?” 🙂

I too want to get in on the game and impose tariff on somebody 🙂

All the countries of the world seem to be singing that old “Kashmir Ki Kali” song “Tariff karoon kya uski” in unison ….
(sorry for the reference to a Hindi song to my non-Hindi readers)

… I guess so that I do not mistake it for an omelette or something!!!

I am not totally conversant with the New York subway system … but don’t all their customers come in contact with the train? 🙂

… what I am moved by is not the fact that dogs keep marking their territory by peeing every twenty yards or so, but by the fact that they have enough foresight and bladder control to keep enough in reserve to keep doing so …

If I were to follow the same methodology, unfortunately, my kingdom would be a single, modest size blob on the ground 🙂

Laying down in bed, I made the mistake last night of checking Whatsapp. Sure enough, all the different groups were engaged in all sorts of political fights. One group – I think it was my MBA class group – or might be my engineering college hostel (dorm) group – was engaged in a discussion (I use the word mildly) about job creation in India under their favorite party’s rule.

Ever the sucker for factoids, I thought I should get a picture of what has been India’s overall job growth over a longer period of time – say two to three decades. So, I punched in “job growth in India” into Google search on my phone and this is what I got in my very first page results…

You cannot make these things up!! The articles by the same website were barely 20 days apart!!

I did the mental math. I had only two glasses of wine last night. So, it was not me.

I just put the phone back on the charger and went off to sleep.

Apparently, you folks have found a new organ in our body.

Let me get this straight – you have been performing surgery on us for over a hundred years – I mean literally cutting us open every which way – millions of us over the years – and sometimes even leaving knives and tools inside forcing you to cut us open again and NOW you say there might be another organ?????

What? The organ was playing hide and seek with you all these years or what?

No wonder you call your professions “practice” 🙂

P.S. This is a joke. Don’t take this seriously. I still need to visit you for all the known organs that hurt me 🙂
