"The greatest pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you,but he will make a fool of himself too." SAMUEL BUTLER A blogfriend emailed me these cute puppy photos. I wish everyone of them could leap out of my laptop right into my lap.
Today was a bright sunny day temperature was about 18-15*C. So we enjoyed the warm sun. I served lunch - rajma (red kidney beans) and rice on the veranda I also boiled some (garden harvested) sweet potatoes which I like with salt and pepper.
God is good all the time...in sunshine and in the fog.
But the vuvuzela or the stadium horn is another ball game altogether.
This is no ' Little Boy Blue
Come Blow you horn' experience.
They make the most hated sound in the
world for the moment, but
that hasn 't prevented them from becoming the most
wanted FIFA memorabilia.
They are selling fast and free all over the globe.
Britain has a record breaking sale.
They are on iTunes -topping
the charts in Europe.
Does the sound of a million bees buzzing in your face sound
like music?
NewsCafe, South African pub in
New Delhi has visitors asking for them.
They sold out all 15 they had .
Maybe someone will get the
bright (blasting) idea of manufacturing
the Indian version for the Oct.2010 Commonwealth Games
to be staged in New Delhi.
Ours is called the bhonpoo
its like a vehicle horn, quite a
startling sound it makes-
enough to make the sleepiest driver sit up.
But I assure you that the bhonpoo discharges a more musical
sound.
Now if you are digging into your wallets or handbags to
buy the famed South African device
let me tell you that in Britain
it is selling at 2 Euros (Rupees 115) each
On Amazon.com you can order one for $9.99 (Rupees465)
On eBay there are more than 400 bids
for the coveted instrument.
One bid has reached $17.94 (Rupees 820)'
Oh I just read a company has ordered
10,000 vuvus for India.
Thank goodness India is a VERY HUGE country.
Now if you' ve not had the good fortune
of hearing the famed sound .
Watch this video.
One more thing.
I don' t understand why soccer is being
called ' the BEAUTIFUL GAME '
Oh yes I know Pele the superman of football called it that
in the title of his 1977 autobiography.
Soccer or football is a
game of power
raw muscles and bone,
mud, blood and studs (for the rhyme)
Well I do understand Pele' s emotion. But the word
beautiful conjures up an image of
dainty, elegant, soft skinned people
playing crochet, cards or even billiard/pool.
All the football fans out there will think
I need a penalty kick!!!
Namrita on a school hike
Thank you for praying for Namrita. She is much better since yesterday. Sounds cheerful on the phone. As a result of our prayers God applied the balm of Gilead on her .
++++++++++++
Yesterday we had a power cut for more than 7 hours (the entire day). Today 's lasted 5 hours. But the voltage is very low. Sometimes the sky is sprayed with fleecy clouds. We are waiting for the rains.' I give Sheeba baths and try to cool off with frozen iced water Today I made iced tea.

This is been a blasting post. And I want to end by saying that we may avoid the buzz of the vuvuzelas but no one will be able to hide from the trumpet call when Christ descends on earth to gather His people. Even the dead shall awake!
16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord for ever. 18 Therefore encourage each other with these words.
