I missed the parade and bad chapatis at Meerut, but I commemorate 150th anniversary of start of Indian Revolution:
by
1) Looking in awe this portrait of Mangal Pandey
2) Successfully reading this rare and historic document which is court order for Mangal Pandey’s execution
3) Borrowing “The great Indian Mutiny” by Richard Collier from my library.
4) Feeling sorry for the lost heritage
5) Buying Reebok shoes from Kohls.
#5 seems to be the most patriotic.
I spent time fighting with someone about Democrats and Republicans.
