Oh give me a home...

When we were kids our school taught us to sing "Oh give me a home where the buffalo roam.." which is ironic for many reasons one of which is that we were "Indians" and not frontiersmen and other and more important was because the school was in Goregaon, where the sheer preponderance of Buffalo Sheds and "tabelas" meant that everyone in the school yearned to live in a land where there were NO buffaloes and prayed that they would be tied to their sheds and never roam. Of course... we soon had floods and all those buffaloes drowned and died.

I wish the pigeons would go away like that in one of those sandstorms we have here in Jodhpur. >-x
