Bunked the afternoon exam, didn't have any idea it was gonna take place. Turns out, they've combined 5 sections into one (at 100+ students per, that ain't much of a joke), and figgered since no one's comin' anyways, this should make sure the odd ones who do, quickly change their minds. School technically got over after the 12th boards last month, but its open till the last major entrance test on 30th (why do i feel i'm reiterating?). Everyone's stayin' home and studyin. Thats good for them, but I usually spend most of my homestuck days on Csim, so I prefer goin' to j/c. And worse - prep exams everyday for the next 20, till its over with. 2 to 5 means i leave at 1, and that ain't a joke either, considering I commute by bus, standing, usually hanging outside, with noon temperatures over 40C. Sheeesh! not fun, I can tell ya.
So like, wednesday. Enjoy!

Anyone here familiar with Frank Herbert's Dune universe? There's a really powerful tank called (D'uh!) a Devastator. Its nuclear powered, and the nuke rig also serves another function - a regenerative force shield around the tank. AND it's got 2 nuclear cannons in front. Neat, huh?

Nice!

You missed the joke, man.
North Caolina barbeque refers to a type of pork barbeque.
Texas barbeque refers to a type of beef barbeque.
Since the majority of Indians are either Muslim or Hindu, serving both at a a dinner would amount to restarting the Sepoy Rebellion.
I prefer the Texas personally.
If you say so. Though you don't want to go around an Indian neighbourhood saying Sepoy Rebellion, it was the First War of Independence and is only symbolic in the fact that the Academy exam i'm writing this sunday has about 50 questions on that, and its a topic I dont know anyone whose not slept through during 5 years of high school teaching.
That reminds me - got to bully some kid into giving me his history textbook for a day or two, if I want to harbor any hope of passing. They ask the wierdest questions, ranging from the color of Lord Cornwallis' oldest undies to the number of people in your block who know the national anthem's author. (I dont, for one)
And how am I supposed to know about the dietary habits of North Carolinans and Texans, when I can barely point them out on the atlas, eh?

Going at 50 INR -->1 US$, that works out to, uhmm, about 1600 INR.
*Goes to desk, opens drawer, pulls out wallet, starts flipping through compartments*
Lessee, there's a tattered 20, a new 10, coins of various denominations, and a '38 1. Whoa, where did the 1 come from???
*Makes note to visit local heritage museum later in the day*
Methinks me'll wait for the local tri-recycled 7th reprint
Though seriously, I'll pick it up if it gets to stores here. I'll keep an eye out here, and I'll be heading north to the capital in the summer. Hopefully it'll have arrived. That is, if you're goin' global?

Tuesday, afternoon,
I’m just beginning to see,
Now I’m on my way,
It doesn’t matter to me,
Chasing the clouds away.
Something, calls to me,
The trees are drawing me near,
I’ve got to find out why
Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh.
I’m looking at myself, reflections of my mind,
It’s just the kind of day to leave myself behind,
So gently swaying thru the fairy-land of love,
If you’ll just come with me and see the beauty of
Tuesday afternoon.
Tuesday afternoon.
Tuesday, afternoon,

Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh.

TexMex, KFC and the rest thought so too. They came over with some solid gusto in the early '90s. By 2000, only KFC had 2 branches running, the rest had packed off. Nothin' you have can beat north indian non-veg (esp shahi kababs) and south indian veg (a good ole chicken keema masala dosa makes my day). They serve diluted stuff outside. What you get is nothing as spicy as how we make it, esp southies. Not for nothing are there 21 types of, a literal translation would be, gunpowder

It shouldn't, they use different signal frequencies, I think.

Yeah, but we rustle up some good stuff with chicken (meat, as I'm told you call it). Eaten much?
Regarding productivity - its just that the ones who go abroad try to fit in with you chaps, thats why they work hard
The rest of us hate doing anything not involving the tv, filmi songs, and food, esp working. Its just that higher education is very cheap over here, if you're not finicky about which college you do it from. Thats why there are so many of us abroad - chaps who graduate from a low-end institute, cant get jobs here, so they apply for the same jobs abroad. They get taken, head out for a decade or two, and come back to big jobs. If you do it from the top 35, on the other hand, you get the big job straight away, without slogging your butt off later. So like i said, we who're in the mainland, are very lazy. Either we've got fat paychecks, or we've got govt jobs. Thats the main thing that holds the country back. People die for a govt job, 'coz it involves no work, no responsibility, no accountability, and total security. With all the quotas, its pretty easy to get a govt job, and then you dont have to work ever again. Every post is overstaffed, and the govt can't cut jobs, coz its the govt. people'l take out their frustrations next elections. For example, the local branch of the state bank of india has over 30 cashiers, and 7 receptionists, working on 2 machines!!! 2 of them work, and the rest just sit around the whole day, sipping tea. Thats why no one keeps an account with the SBI no more, and its losing its market share. But hey, its the govt's, right? Customers dont matter, employees do Anyway, wrong thread. *Anyone still reading this???*
Boats, you're kinda spooking me out, y'know, with all your scenarios and everything. Lucky us, nostraD never had you by his side

Don't get too up on the high-horse Shep. There was a short-lived (Thank God) series on current Marine Aviation. "Pensecola: Wing of Gold" ran for about two seasons. The first season wsan't bad as it showed a bunch of young kids going through advanced fighter training with F/A-18s. The second season, uhhhhhhh....not even worth mentioning.
Yeah, they're running that hear for the 3rd time, I guess I caught season 2. Nothing great, all it had was a bunch of perenially-primed models and a hornet competing for screen-space.

Careful there, Shep, that thing looks dangerous
