As an Indian who was brought up in the US, I missed
much of the social education especially that involving
jokes.  On my trips to India, I find myself always
with a group that enjoys telling jokes but am unable
to contribute jokes since I've not learned any that
would be considered Indian.  I would be interested to
'learn' from any netter.  If you have an interesting
joke that you wouldn't mind sharing, contribute it here
so long as it doesn't get too offensive.  Hopefully
most of the joke would be in English [the language of
the imperialists] and any inclusion of a native language
should be followed (or preceded) by an English trans-
lation since not many Indians (and most non-Indians) may
not be too familiar with some particular language. One
may want to warn readers if the joke is a little too
wild in the Header or with rotation like that which is
done on net.jokes .  I am personally hoping to have a
few of these in 'hand' when I next go to a Deshi party.
