Presidential Pose

One picture talks a million words.

President Pratibha Patil poses with an AK-47 that is recovered from the militants in Jammu & Kashmir. She clearly forgot that she is the first person of the nation and her actions will draw a huge attention from all parts of the world. It seems she is enjoying the company of the killing machine as she is all smiles with the gun in her hands.

Hope a day will come soon that our politicians learn how to behave at least when the world is watching them...

Evolution

Look at the funny side of the EVOLUTION of man kind. I got this pic from another blog sometime back (Weird Musings).

Too good of a comparison...

Roses and their Significance..

Today, one of my friend asked me to send some roses to one of his friends as he is cut off from the world(INTERNET). Just before I sent them, he asked me to send Orchids instead of roses. I did the job and was amused why he didn't order roses. Did some research and found some amazing things about roses....
