Look ma! Jack-fruit!

Finally the funny sight of last week. George Bush lifting a jackfruit. All 12 lbs of it. I mean i loved the way the AP government had organized a grand tour of "Sania Mirza" country.

A couple of ladies tugging hard at a manual loom and then a walk down to a big-assed curly horned buffalo whose teats have been freshly oiled for Bush's yanking pleasure. And finally to a table filled with the fruits of AP; which included the jackfruit.

Who comes up with such a display itenerary? the party secretary's long suffering multi-talented home-maker? or one of those party goons who has recently been promoted?

Fascinating stuff.

The phone rings at 7:30 this morning... Saturday morning. the one after Friday night.

It was my landlord. "We tried calling you all evening. Where were you?" Apparently he tried my landline and it had been disconnected. So he was all discombulated.

Maybe is was BSNL. Don't even get me started on those bunch of plier happy nincompoops who idea of customer service ends with dotty old pre-menepausal women screaming into the phone. Or a meaningless recorded message informing us of nothing!

Maybe it was me. Whose idea of bill payments is a variation of the "lazy fetch" operation

Anyway he woke me up.

Dogs of war?

Just read that Bush arrived in india with an entourage that would make anybody take notice and yelp. An entorage of 60 dogs. Yup.

I wonder... Now do these "agent brownies" need to be taken around? fed some local bird-flu screened chicken, a walk around Kutb while they relieve themselves, perhaps even some local lassies to entertain them late into the night after a hard day of sniffing? I really wonder...
