are1) Yesterday I came to school in an auto rickshaw that had 3 GIANT blocks of ice in it--melting at my feet. Huge and dirty. A new kind of air conditioning system, maybe? India you're so smart. This means that not only was I riding in a tiny, yellow golf cart-like scooter/car, decked out in furry purple tiger stiped interior and ceiling covering, looking at a poster of "Bollywood Movie stars" and listening to excessively loud techno music....i was also sitting in a puddle of freezing water. go india!
2) libraries, in their essence as fundamentally based on the principles of organization, are not in any way applicable to the country of India.
3) you know how trucks and buses in the States go beeep-beeep when they back up? Here in india, all cars have (purchased? comes standard with the car? i dont know) built in songs that play when the car (ALL cars) are put into reverse. The songs are all in monotoned (ie one note at a time) and are all things like Jingle Bells and Happy Birthday. Inevitably, as the song progresses, the tune goes out and the notes get distorted.
ps. new pictures are up on picasa
