Good news! So I decided to buy a nice litle beagle
The bad news derives itself from the fact that I am somehow reminded of the zero sum game
…esp. in the solidly rooted Indian society
You see its like this … if you have a female dog , a most economic and convenient way of adopting its baby (when your dog gets old and should be replaced) is to place an ad/ check classifieds for a domestic male dog of the same race who would …help it breed … purely (and in a rather safer way as compared to your dog pro creating with say … a street dog) !! You would also be ready to pay for it ….
That sets the author wondering … about the dowry system in India . It all sounds the same actually.
Particularly in the south , in the author`s nice little state of A.P … dowries are big time. To ensure that their girl childs get pure-race (sorry! I mean … same community ) breeding partners ( sorry! I mean … loving husbands) . For the purpose of breeding safe ( sorry ! for having a good matrimonial life)§. They are willing to fix a ransom (sorry ! I mean … the traditional and magnificent dowry package)
Voila! Its heartening to see both men and dogs get paid for sperm :p Its heartening to see that dogs and some Indian communities have evolved into a synchronized state of buyers` market.

ps: Sound the trumpets …. the ghost is back !!
ps1 : The prophecy of the last post didnt kill me yet … 6 months into 2010 …as alive and kicking as a beagle 😉
I love beagles. I am going to buy one instead of a wife.
haha I didnt intend to convey such a radical stance of course …
but anyway to all his own 🙂
lol as crazy as ever
but good shit bro
@ ghost runner:
the sarcastic return to blogdom ? 😉 social malice finds its match in your malice I guess . lol
so what is your stance on the dowry system . Its like everybody`s (the male side) favourite part of the indian wedding
This is my sarcasm … but I dont really have any rebellious or prescriptive stance towards this …
I mean, if a guy wants to smoke (and eventually kill himself) , there is no moral that has the right to stop him
Same goes for those who practice dowry
Unapologetically smart-ass as ever. With attitudes such as this one, I hope someday we’re all gonna have many more options 😀
😀 its more of a comical analogy than a revolution … I wouldn’t really spare the time to care if the dog’s tail (sorry! I mean the social system) straightens up or not
