  1. Gurfateh,

    Ok people, this question is deep... If you could ever get a chance to go back to childhood, school, or college, and do something differently, or learned something else, or chose a different path, which would have yielded a different outcome in your life, what would it be? It can be about sikhi, or not... Anything which you feel like you wish you had done different...

    We can start with me... Sikhi-wise, I wish I would have payed more attention to gurbani, and what it actually meant... I didn't do that when I was young, and now I'm struggling to understand it...

  2. the coin bite trick, i know how he does, but i can't tell, it wouldn't be right... :e: but yea, his tricks are crazy... especially the floating dollar, that is my favorite, i have NO clue how that's possible...... i'm trying to figure it out, i will one day.... hopefully.....

    fateh

    dang i love magic...makes u feel like a kid again... u start to get an ego as you get older and you lose your innocence - u think u know it all...then BANG! Vikram pahji does his 'bite the coin' trick and - "holy cr** how'd he do that!!!!" ohmy.gif
  3. i saw this on another site, and wanted to post it here... maaf if you've already read it...

    How to answer the usual questions asked of Indians

    To help the new wave of incoming students from India,

    here are the proper answers to awkward questions asked everyday:

    Q. What does that red dot on women's forehead mean?

    A. Well, in ancient times, Indian men used to practice archery

    skills by target practicing by aiming at their wife's red dot.

    In fact, that is one of the reasons why they had many wives.

    You see, once they mastered the art of archery and hit the target....

    Q. You're from India? I have read so much about the country. All the wonderful places, the forests, the snake charmers, the elephants. Do you still use elephants for transportation?

    A. Absolutely. In fact we used to have our own elephant in our

    house. But later, we started participating in elephant-ride

    sharing schemes with our neighbors, to save the air. You see

    elephants have an "emissions" problem.....

    Q. Does India have cars?

    A. No. We ride elephants to work. The government is trying to

    encourage ride-sharing schemes.

    Q. Does India have TV?

    A. No. We only have cable.

    Q. Are all Indians vegetarian?

    A. Yes. Even tigers are vegetarian in India.

    Q. How come you speak English so well?

    A. You see when the British were ruling India,they employed Indians as servants. It took too long for the Indians to learn English. So the British isolated an "English-language" gene and infused their servants' babies with it and since then all babies born are born speaking English.

    Q. Are you a Hindi?

    A. Yes. I am spoken everyday in Northern India.

    Q. Do you speak Hindu?

    A. Yes, I also speak Jewish, Islam and Christianity.

    Q. Is it true that everyone there is very corrupt?

    A. Yes, in fact, I had to bribe my parents so that they would

    let me go to school.

    Q. India is very hot, isn't it?

    A. It is so hot there that all the water boils spontaneously.

    That is why tea is such a popular drink in India.

    Q. Are there any business companies in India?

    A. No. All Indians live on the Gandhian prinicples of self-sufficiency. We all make our own clothes and grow our own food. That is why you see all these thin skinny Indians -- it is is a lot of hard work.

    Q. Indians cannot beef, huh?

    A. Cows provide milk which is a very essential part of Indian diet. So eating cows is forbidden. However in order to decrease the population of the country, the government is trying to encourage everyone to eat human meat.

    Q. India is such a religious place. Do you meditate regularly?

    A. Yes, sometimes I meditate for weeks without food and drink. But it is difficult to keep my job, because I have to miss work when I meditate like that. But the bosses there do the same thing. That is why things are so inefficient there.

    Q. I saw on TV that people there walk on burning coals. Why do they do that?

    A. We don't have shoes. So we burn the botton of our feet to make it hard so that we can walk.

    Q. Why do you sometimes wear Indian clothes to work?

    A. I prefer it to coming naked.

  4. no no, i don't want you to reveal any of your secrets... i know magicians can't do that.. but u know how a lot of magicians teach like one or two simple little tricks, that's what i was saying...... anyways.. good stuff.........

    Hmm.. ok.. yeah. :@

    Haha.. They're not actually that good.. I'm just using magic to make you think so.. :e:

    Well.. I don't know about revealing any of my secrets on a public forum.. perhaps "ill pm to you, yea?" tongue.gif

    We shall see.

    Oh, and remember to sign the guestbook!

    Thanks.

  5. omg haha sikhness....I saw the same thing at gym once...some guy walked in kitted out like proper...running shoes, shorts, ipod...the whole entire work!! We're all like whoah expensiveness or what then 5 mins pass by and the next thing we see is him flying off the treadmill...lol...

    haha yea... it's pretty embarassing................ i'm more careful now, i just put my ipod in my shorts pockets........

    :TH:

  6. this just happened to me the other day...

    i was at the gym, running on the treadmill... and it has a few little spots to put things, water bottle, ipod, etc... so i put my ipod in one of them... and while i was running, my arm hit the earphones wire, and it came out and my ipod flew out of the little holder and fell on the treadmill and started bumping around... then i jumped and started moving around on a treadmill that was going 5 mph to avoid stepping on my ipod, and i lost my balance, and almost fell, but still, managed to look like a complete <banned word filter activated>... i could tell that everybody that behind me was laughing at me, i just couldn't bring myself to turn around, it was so embarassing......... blush.gif

  7. It's like the NBA Finals......... the winners always have shirts that say they're the world champs right after the game............ it's kinda like that...

    for a crowd as big as there was, i think guru sahib must have ordered all the kakaars be made before hand
  8. interesting question. sadly though, i do not have an answer to it. sorry... blush.gif

    A friend once said that when Guru Gobind Singh Ji created the Khalsa Panth by giving Amrit to the Panj Pyare, it is said that after, people took Amrit in the thousands.

    How were so many kakkars created in such a small amount of time if only Guru Sahib knew what was going to happen?

    Fateh.

  9. kh@ls@ bro, your email address must be like the most confusing address to give out to people man... kh@ls@@yahoo.com or something like that...

    I think when reffering to it conversation people usually say 'i don't want to eat his germs'...

    So germs I guess but only in certain context.
