We commute by Merc! Yeah baby... here all the taxis are either Merc or Volks Wagon. And sights of BMWs have made them so commonplace!! Well I am not crazy about cars but if you are then this is a right place for you to visit.
Yesterday when we were returning from the office an old man came running towards us with his dog. He was panting and seemed quite tired. He cursed his dog for making him run after him and thanked us for giving him the way. A routine affair in Germany where people greet you on the street without knowing you or having any interest in knowing you either. But this man stopped.
- where have you come from.
- India
- dont worry, it wont do anything.

- i was wondering...err...i just wanted to find out...which religion is the best?
Khatraaa...
Of course yours,after all this dog is yours!
- you might like to talk to Louis..
- hey.... i just wanted to know which religion is the BEST!
He was talking to ME. Everyone talks to me. Nahiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Ok Abhishek, you torture others with your questions, now its your turn to be tormented. Remember 'Vikram aur Baitaal'? 'Is sawaal ka jawaab de nahi to tere sar ke tukde tukde kar doonga.' Here the situation was even worse, even answering his question was going to put us into trouble, MAJOR trouble. I remembered the mythological story in which the Sphinx used to stop the passersby and ask them questions.. sphinxlike question.. answer or DIE.
- well, sir i think i am too young to know these profound things...
- hmm...
