Nov 2, 2009: The Busk Stops Here!

Some kids have all the fun! :headshake

Weird.... that was my phone number about 30 years ago when I lived in Savannah. Srsly.

Not enough bars on that cage, the kids can reach the driver.

Looks like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Hebrew??
 

I assume that this is in New Dehli, India. But the leather shop in back of it has lettering in English and Hebrew. Any ideas as to why?

Maybe it's a feather shop.

It's a father shop. Those are orphans looking for a new papa. Aba is Hebrew for daddy.

The father inventory looks like a little depleted. Don't the new ones come in on Tuesdays?

Short Bus?

Speaking of which, they are trying to allow pedicabs in Philadelphia.

pedi-cabs? *snickers*

Bravo, sir (or madam as the case may be). That's the funniest thing I've read in weeks. And it might actually be true.

I don't see any busking going on here, and the associations with Slumdog Millionaire are mildly unpleasant (i.e., blinding kids to be better buskers)

ty. and beatch will suffice ;)

(female, but most definitely not a madam!)

Why not? Jews are allowed in India, as far as I know. A lot of Indians avoid leather, or is that just the untanned hides?
Anyway, welcome to the Cellar, ko12957. :D

I guess there might be some connection between the hebrew script and the leather shop - Hindus hold cows sacred, and so would not touch leather (I think), yet there are non-hindus who use leather goods, so there will be a leather industry, and the leather industry will be in the hands of non-hindus.

Mind you, cricket balls are leather-wrapped cork, and many indians - including Hindus - are crazy for cricket. I'm not sure how this works out, kinda like a jewish or muslim guy playing football and catching the pigskin. Hmmm


/ramble.

How do they get the leather to wrap around those tiny balls crickets have?

Untrue. India has a thriving leather-goods industry. It's all part of the hypocrisy.

I think that girl in the middle window of the bus is wearing her grandmother's teeth.:D

Thank you.......I needed that.......

The laugh......Not the balls......

Actually, before they get wrapped in leather, crickets have huge balls - half their body size. That is why we wrap them - otherwise it makes the human males feel insecure.
And that is why crickets chirps are so high pitched.

I respectfully disagree. Although there is plenty of fun involved, it's really adult fun. The busk stops here:

:eek::3eye:

Now I be edumacated gooder.

Excellent. My work here is done.
