Whenever You Are We Are Already Then

Absurdities of the world

Ronaldo has bedded 80,000 raccoons. The Zambian president was peed upon by a daring monkey. Popeye is the new Rated R Superstar. And Berlusconi has never pimped his ride.
Yet, the greatest absurdity I fumbled upon today was a Celine Dion song that claims – “Once I was afraid, to let You near…..Now I have known that love can’t be made in fear.” 

Sung in the same bleating fashion that characterizes all her music.  Imagine it slowly. And then imagine slowly falling to your death from a pointy cliff. The cliff looks a lot more delightful an option.

Bloody absurd, even by breast-beating, French Canadian standards.

There are lots of reasons for loving Bombay. Here is a more obvious one. Conversation you can “eavesdrop” on.

Mrs D’Costa yelling at her son trying to cook breakfast : “Freddie stop playing with the sausage!”

Freddie D’ Costa: “Then let me bring home girls, ma!”

D’Costas are the nice people who take care of our plants in our absence. Which is rarely ever.
