The DoD files II

   Should have been more careful... Remember that mom had sent me this book on Kushwant Singh. So this man is fascinating, to say the least (both good and bad). So with all enthu, I borrowed some "Why I supported the emergency" (See, he is fascinating...), written by him and ahem, it never caught my attention for a few days until I decided to light an incense stick  to ward off some highly strong (and exotic) "washed clothes" vapors which were drifting around... I place it on top of a piece of paper for heat insulation and the book below the whole arrangement. Little did I know that the tip reaches about 800 degrees C and the damn thing would burn through the paper and through Rajiv Gandhi's head, the cover of the book...

    And recently, I was struck blind by a screen shot of a  facebook user's profile on whose wall was made some very interesting observations. The wannabe Buddha started off with stating that he had known the "Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side" joke for the past 15 years and that he had never thought about it in a different way.
Death.
Any of you ever thought about it that way? The other side? Of life?
Death?
Huh? Gotcha...
