I Win!!

I opened up the top of my Coke bottle the other day and found this:
It says I won 0.25 p.... The value is 1/2 a penny! It takes 100 Paise to equal one rupee (about 2 cents)... It kinda made me laugh :) But what really made me laugh was the fine print - it said that only the retailer gets the money... and the deal was already expired... oh well... haha!.... OK, so maybe not that funny, but it made me smile :)

haha! Carie you crack me up! :)

I don't think many people would have been that excited to have won that :) haha! Only the retailer gets the prize money anyway, and I don't think he would be that excited about it... although I think he probably would have kept them and turned them in for the money no matter how small :)

Tonight there was some protesting in our neighborhood. Here are some more protesting pictures. There will probably be more protesting to come... we'll see what happens!

Funny Things - Random :)

Here's a few random funny things ;) One thing that drives a lot of people crazy is honking! There are things that drive me crazy (like people urinating on the sidewalks - yuck!) but thankfully honking is not one of them because we hear it pretty much 24/7. We saw this poster the other day (below) and thought it was funny... BUT not as funny as the Hindi poster. The Hindi poster pretty much said that 'Honking is bad for your health' - haha ! Horns are actually a pretty necessary part of driving here. You don't really look behind you when you drive (most people either don't use their side mirrors, don't have side mirrors, or just have them folded in). When you drive, you just drive forward and you honk at the person in front of you to let them know that you're there - simple right? Sure, it's a little noisy, but you never have to look behind you :) If you go to that company's website it says: "Have patience at the traffic signals, let the signal t...
