Nepali superstition

The Nepali woman at my new job walked up to me all happy to be hiccuping today ... I told her to drink water in straights and she said "no , when I hiccup it mean someone dear is thinking of me, this is Nepal".

I've heard that in some parts of the world, people believe someone thinks of them when they are sneezing out of the blue and such, but to actually endure hiccuping for hours for the warm feeling it brings seems .. *ehem* *ehem* *wink wink*.

'when your mother, father think of you at home what happen here ?" She inquired .. "well duh ! They call"
(And then you hiccup :P )

sukleen - our goal is cleanliness


Although most ads in this country suck, some people still manage to produce a fun/y interesting one... others produce ads you look forward to, Sukleen being one...


I've decided to blog a few ads of interest (some horrible ones as well I suppose.... let's see how it all goes).

First of a bunch .. this one by Sukleen says "our goal is cleanliness" and features a footballer kicking a trash-ball.

note: this blog is also to test a couple of features :
1- a blog through Picasa..
2- this picture was geo-tagged, not sure if it means anything here ..
