There are very few species of snakes up here in Canada (due to the varied climate conditions). We spent our time studying the physiology and unique characteristics of various species of lizards, frogs, salamanders, and snakes. Snakes don't have ears, so no lessons were handed out to us in order to play the instrument ;) .

really? maybe youre from california, but it's rare where i'm from. actually, i should have said: it's RARER to see a chapta holding hands w/ an indian as compared to other non-indian holding hands w/ an indian.
 
wtf is a "chapta"?? i've never heard that term in my life.

Naah doctors all of them - so I guess their parents didn't care.

Also, a lot of them are familiar with Indian stuff. I have a Korean friend, a guy,
going to medical school and he knows a lot about Indian food. His other friend, my room mate for medical school, is Indian.

Naah after I posted the thread on Bengalis :laugh: :laugh:

Actually I am reading Bhagavad Gita right now. It is very interesting, reading partly because I wish to get better a understanding Sanskrit. Also, I have never read it before.
So I 'll answer your question more specifically afterwards.
BTW I am not religious.

As you sow so shall you reap.

Read my sig. ! that should explain it all.

The secret to Tintin’s eternal youth has been discovered!Apparently, the repeated blows he took on his head (50 times to be precise)resulted in a subsequent hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism…along with an acquired growth hormone deficiency …that’s what the Canadian Medical Journal has to say in this year’s Christmas Edition. A meticulous search was done by the Author(and his two children)who diligently noted the number of times the young reporter was bonked on his head(with the trauma scale being the number of stars,bells and assorted objects seen by the subject and as documented on the cartoon strip following the injury)!Unfortunately,no brain imaging was done…the author laments in conclusion… :scared:

I have no idea what they mean, but I love to chant them out in the swimming pool corriders. The echo makes it feel as if I got some divine voice.
