Its a little hard to see, but those are tire marks on my shoe. I was standing at the very edge of the curb, facing an autorickshaw, when this minivan came around the corner and made no effort to avoid me. I’m so glad I wasn’t an inch further out. I do not want to experience an Indian emergency room as a patient. Actually, I might not want that experience as an observer either.

I thought this one was referring to “public servants” (like postal clerks or something) when I first saw it. Nope, its a public service message about domestic servants brought to you by Mr. Potato Head.

My office building is being re-spackled or something. Note the platform where a man sits, tied to the building by the pictured rope, and applies cement to the building all day. This country desperately needs some occupational safety standards.
