How (Not) to make friends in Texas

Disclaimer:

This is an article for those who are liberal (I hate that term) or better still open minded and understand that human beings change and we cannot live by laws crafted in 1 AD and written on a parchment paper.

If you are from Texas and only vote for a Republican, have Sean Hannity on your speed dial and your screen saver is an image of Ronald Regan please discontinue reading this article.

My business provides me the unique opportunity to come and live in heart of Texas, specifically Temple, TX for around 2 weeks in a month. This had given me a unique opportunity to observe "conservatives" in their natural habitat.

Now and then, as much as I try to keep silent, I find myself getting into situations where I fear for my life. This arises from my need to share my profound views, even when not asked and also during inappropriate time. I do not believe in "Silence is Golden" policy.

So here are some of things that will ensure you not invited to "Bubba's Annual Hunt for Food Festival"

a. Essay on "Religion - Man biggest mistakes".
b. Expose on "President Bush - The worst leader of the free world".
c. Photo essay on "Gays/Lesbian - A call for equality".
d. 10 points to illustrate that being liberal is not the same as being unpatriotic.
e. Presentation on "Why America needs a Women/Minority President"

Such topics will immediately ensure that you get banished from the neighborhood and your children will never be able to partake in such rituals as Trunk N Treat.

But then again this may be useful if you want to get rid of an annoying relative/girlfriend who is from the Bible Belt of USA.

Then again what do I know and whom am I to judge.

Stuff Brown (Indian/Desi) People like to do in USA

I am in all honesty devoid of a single Idea on what to blog. My good and extremely beautiful friend Zen already posted about stuff white people like blog.

That gave me an idea on doing a parody stuff brown people like to do while in USA, but then again I am too lazy to do it. If I did right about it this is the list I would have come up with and it is no particular order:

1. Addicted to cell phone especially the PDA variety
2. Online dating
3. Creating or joining social network
4. Having token white friends to show off
5. Dating white guys/girls
6. Buying Toyota/Honda cars
7. Buy BMW/Mercedes as the next car
8. Enjoying pseudo intellect conversation about Indian philosophy
9. Cricket
10. Throwing or going to Bollywood parties
11. Taking photos

I am open to anyone adding to the list or writing about this?
