I don't know much about india besides monsoons; movies where the cast breaks out into song and dance; and source of two great religions.
Oh yeah, and the food kicks ass as well.
So glad that you were an English colony at one point otherwise the British still wouldn't have any clue what good food is.
I think I'm going to grab some curry for lunch
Wooo! Happy Independence to ya guys.

Hot damn I gotta get me some curry too! Some day I gotta visit India, I have a friend from there and she tells me great things. Happy Independence day, from one country who kicked out england to another!
Ah also Air India, because of the food Indians eat they can smell alot this I noticed first on busses and thought no big deal, however on the plane the smell for so long... (i got used to it though) I love the energy in Indian movies :P. there were pee floating out from the toilets and my friend noticed this by taking off his shoes and... well you get it.
when i was just about to sleep, closing my eyes, i see a cockaroach on the seat infront of me. (kept me awake hehe)
I doubt that others will have the same experience as me hehe but now when I think back about it I think is fun.
I was camping on tiger hill up in the north, India is so beautiful.
Good shit India, you make awesome foods
Very happy for your 60 years, and contrary to what a load of thughead wankers would tell you the vast majority of the british people are really grateful for what our two countries achieved together.
I'm wondering though ... Is it really known as "independence day"?
oh, and yes air india sux, but DAMN u had a real shitty experience! i never had it that bad! lol.
oh, and danr... yes indeedy, we call it "independence day".
once again, thanks for all the support, and if u guys didn't see me on OMNI, i'll like upload it onto youtube or something lol.... weeeeee!

I live with a Fiji Indian, which I know is substantially different, but the both of us have often talked about doing a trip to India sometime in the future.
Mad props for making it on TV and hope you had a great Independence Day.

now you know how i look
Indians make a huge chunk of the population down here in sg, in fact two indians i know professionally are in management positions, one in IT, the other is an art director and runs a game company. My office is also right across the street from a Hindu temple, indians are a very traditional people even in a super secular place like singapore. you see them roaming the streets topless and in bright yellow pants around deepavali.. i'd have to step over some guy who passed out drunk on the street. one thing i will say is, they sure know how to party.
Might actually fly to india this year. One of my friends, a filipino, grew up in bombay/mumbai and he's been badgering me to go down there for a visit. it's his favorite city, and he's lived everywhere.
Is it true jai hindi means hip hip hooray?
oh and ha. yeah we've got this drink called bhang. strongest alcohol evar.... makes u laugh like crazy for some reason.
but if u are planning to go to india, and need tips on tourist spots, you know how to reach me
and cool. lots of ppl with crushes on indian girls lol. and back home in india we drool for 'westerners' lol.
