Funny Things Friday :)

I definitely need some funny things this Friday :) so..... for your viewing pleasure :)
Here's a "Frams Torner" Action Figure :)
This was on a big sign about giving your kids the injections (shots) they need :) I just think it's funny that the shot is hugging the baby :)
The other night at our Friday night market I saw this cart being pushed around. I couldn't get a very good picture because he didn't want me to take a picture... but I just had to :) It's a cart full of toothbrushes! They were 5 rupees :) (about 11 cents) :)
This sign is in the metro and always makes me laugh :) One of our friends got fined the other day :)... haha! (yeah, this sign and the fine are totally necessary)
The other day we were watching the Cricket World Cup with our neighbors and one of the guys wanted more water, so he yelled up to his wife on the top floor. she threw down the basket and he put his empty bottles in it and she pulled them back up. She filled them up and sent them back down :)
At lot of people that live on top floors do this for deliveries, getting vegetables and all kinds of things - I think it's hilarious :)
Awesome :) I hope you have a fun Funny Friday :)

Those are awesome!! In Syria they had the basket for deliveries too. I thought it was pretty smart. I'm not sure I would be brave enough to buy one of those tooth brushes!!!!

That basket is a good idea!! In Amsterdam I saw people get their furniture moved in that way. (obviously with more sophisticated equipment :) Their houses and doorways were too narrow so they had to bring their couches and other things in through the windows!

So fun! And interesting that they really do enforce the no spitting rule!

I like it that the verb for spit kinda sounds like you are spitting. Very creative and it teaches me a new verb.:-)

Once (only once) before, I saw the toothbrush cart. I've always wanted a picture. Hilarious that they are all open and everyone is digging through them. Love it!

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

Protesting

There's some political stuff going on in our city (and now the country) right now. People are peacefully fighting against corruption. It's been very interesting to follow. 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...
