"my time in India was a bit different, they mostly respect the lanes - but if 3 cars and 12 motorcycles can fit in a lane, then that is how many will go at it"

Too bad the English didn't stay long enough to civilize them into rational driving. Oh well, at least they got them to stop cannibalizing every human in sight...

"there was a poster on the NBA WX boards who went to India and as a pedestrian was hit by a car twice (2 separate occasions), I'm pretty sure he got bloody both times"

Yeah, he was minding his own business but had his headphones on so he never saw it coming.

I think he had a bloody nose & a concussion but what pissed him off the most was that it was the 2nd time it had happened since he'd been staying there.

I thought it was peculiar, even in a country with minimal lane discipline... to get hit by a car twice in that short span of time made me wonder if he was a bit more than "just eccentric".
If no one comes from the future to stop you from doing it, then how bad of a decision can it really be?

Stu (I think) was right. The babies are going to make it. Their grandma at this point needs to let go. She got her wish.

Good to hear about the twins.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

Been out of commission awhile. My mother was in the hospital. My prayers are with you and your family Rat. Are the twins (I'm presuming 24 weeks or so) male or female?

U*NC is the cleanest most honest athletic program on the planet. I am jealous of their deserved success, and I'm a mewling cunt.

There is one of those sitting in a guy's garage not far from my house. He bought it new and has kept it since then.

Well the Aunt passed away this morning finally. She'd been in a coma for the past two days & it was starting to drag on. The premies are doing really good. Saw them today for the 1st time. Their hands are as big as my thumbnail. Amazing.
