A little kid walks into a city bus and sits right behind the driver and starts yelling, ''If my dad was a bull and my mom a cow I'd be a little bull. ''

The driver starts getting mad at the noisy kid, who continues with, ''If my dad was an elephant and my mom a girl elephant I would be a little elephant .''

The kid goes on with several animals until the bus driver gets angry and yells at the kid, ''What if your dad was a drunk and your mom was a prostitute?! ''

The kid smiles and says, ''I would be a bus driver!''

Looks like there's been a late swing to the GOP in the last 3 days. Looks like they've been successful in getting their vote out. Can anybody here the sound of jackboots in their neighborhood?

Quotes about India.
We owe a lot to the Indians, who taught us how to count, without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made.
Albert Einstein

India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend and the great grand mother of tradition.
Mark Twain.

If there is one place on the face of earth where all dreams of living men have found a home from the very earliest days when man began the dream of existence, it is India.
French scholar Romain Rolland.

India conquered! and dominated China culturally for 20 centuries without ever having to send a single soldier across her border.
Hu Shih
(former Chinese ambassador to USA)

ALL OF THE ABOVE IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG, THE LIST COULD BE ENDLESS.
BUT, if we don't see even a glimpse of that great India in the India that we see today, it clearly means that we are not working up to our potential; and that if we do, we could once again be an evershining and inspiring country setting a bright path for rest of the world to follow.
I hope you enjoyed it and work towards the welfare of INDIA.

We live in a 4 family home in New Jersey. We have been here for 6 years. My husbands best friend bought this house a year ago and became our new landlord. He lives a few blocks away. My husband did all the maintenance on the house for him and we took out everyones garbage and swept & kept everything nice. We maintained the yard and powerwashed the house and cleaned the basement. Now we get a notice to be out in 60 days. It seems they are renting it out for about $500.00 a month more than we pay. We just completed a beautiful nursery for the baby. We put in drop ceilings and kitchen counter and new floors. All this at our expense. My Husband assumed we would be here a long time. We pay $950.00. We have babies and a big dog and it is hard to find a place in this city that will even take pets. We have a washer and dryer and would like an apartment that will allow it. Do we have rights and what if I don't find a place in 60 days. Our rent is always paid on time.
