Consisteny is Way Over-Rated
Nemo stood in the bathroom doors of my apartment. (Two bathrooms in the same apartment.) My head hit the top frame of the left door five times the first night we moved in. |
|
Gandalf in Hobbit House
In a Calcutta hotel. The building was built by the Brits. Apparently, at some point, the desis decided to make two desi floors out of each one Brit floor. |
|
Delicate Architectures
(Check out my earlier
funny pictures of delicate architectures.)
The Leaning Tower of Pisa is over-rated.
|
Columbine Monks
"You gotta ask yourself one question - 'Do I feel lucky...' Well, do
ya punk..." |
|
"Where Is He?!"
Sandyha is looking for the culprit who just chewed down her fruit trees. The culprit is the monkey on the roof in the upper-right hand corner of the picture. |
|
Bear Carving
At a tiny local barber shop where I get my hair cut for Rs15. The bears being carved and trimmed there seem remarkably calm. |
|
Spelling not Included
(Check out the spelling of the word "professional.") "Don't try this at home. Leave it to us `Proffessionals'." |
|
Could be Norman Bates
The sign says "BOYS HOSTEL, BEST FOODING & LOADING"
|
"INIA?" Doh!
"We like variable-sized fonts."

Masterpiece
The brand name to the right of the brilliant sign says "Masterpiece." |
|
The Little Engine That Could
"We didn't say it could spell."
|
Shopping for a Brand-Name Fridge
I didn't know Coke and Pepsi make refrigerators.

Bio-fuel --- We Put the Fuel in the Bio
Three vehicles stopped by for fuel, each with an onboard gas tank to fill: a jeep, a bicycle, and a mule-cart. |
|
Beauty and the Beast
Outside a "beauty parlour." "Hey, whom are you calling the `beast'?!" |
|
Perfect against HIV
Fliers distributed by a prominent local school. Will make Bush proud.
|
"Quality Messiah"
I rubbed out the names of the presenter and the presentee engraved on the plate. (The presentee, the "quality messiah," was the one who championed the "no sex education" flyer above.) |
|
Professional Service
The dude in the green shirt is a "technician" sent by the water filter company to fix the water filter. As soon as he showed up, he asked Nemo for duct tape... |
|
Nowhere
Google does find the schools that we work at: they are clearly marked in the middle of nowhere. |
|
Incredible !ndia
The following pictures are from the "Ministry of Internal Affairs" in Delhi. The black stuff on the poster is black mold. |
|
In the Guts of the Vogon Lair
Corridors (the first two frames above) and offices (the third frame) are stuffed with tons of dusty paperwork from the yester-years. |
|
High Security
Can't be too careful with all the precious paperwork. Six or seven nails on each side should do it. |
|
External Affairs
Now we are at the "Ministry of External Affairs" to continue the
paperwork requirements, where all the "affairs" are conducted
"externally."
By hordes of monkeys! |
|
We Just Work Here
Sign inside the "Ministry of External Affairs." "Don' [sic] ask us. Ask the monkeys." |
