It's Election Time Here Tomorrow (Nov 24)

It's election time here and I haven't seen any 'hungama' anywhere, anytime. Not even one publicity poster, a public meeting, or a political rally. Everything is so different here from what we see in India. One interesting fact I came to know is every citizen has to compulsorily vote, otherwise each one who hasn't participated in the ballet will be fined a penalty of about $100.




Two Mysterious Questions!!


1. I never understood why most of the English-speaking foreigners use a 'o' in stead of a '0 (zero)' when referring to the number 'zero' in the daily usage?

the second question is very short...

2. What's up?

Any thoughts...?

When you don't have anything to do, you blog!!!

That's what I am doing now...hahah!!


Business Class or
Budda Class!

My flight just landed in Sydney. I was a little tired, not much as I slept throughout my flight. As usual, all the big guys from the business class got down first. I was sitting in 48th row, of course economy class!

While I was approaching the exit, this cute little girl, aged about seven years, looks at the emptied business class and tells her brother walking next to her -- "This is for the old people!" I couldn't resist laughing, I just burst out laughing...followed by all the others including her parents and the air hostesses.
