Peltzman and Me

I got pulled over by the way side traffic cops. They realised ( I already knew ) that my emission check for the motor was expired by 2 weeks and I was carrying a lapsed insurance document. I was clearly at fault. ( Either Rs.700/- or Rs.200/- as a get-away money. ) I didnt have the money for the whole and I didnt want to bribe them. Its not an easy guess what I did.

3 days later
I have all my papers and all documentations done and now I drive recklessly . I try to provocate the cops just wanting them to pull me over and check my documents .
It was definitely the Peltzman effect.

Points here :

a) It should be made illegal for a cop to stop a traveller, without provocation or tangible proofs of traffic violation.
b) When there is a lot of traffic congestion/irregularities in Bangalore, the efforts should be focussed on fixing them first. ( not taxing the people at fault .. the government / traffic authorities should be taxed first ! )
c) What is the point of wearing helmets if the traffic moves at 20km/hr ?
d) Why is it NOT mandatory to wear seat belts inside a car here in India ?
e) There should definitely be regulation on the number of speed breakers , their dimensions and their location. ( And definitely atleast one neon light above them in the nights )

Sex sells ... and also buys !

I always had trouble with the documentation department in the bank to get my loans approved . Hmmm read this ! Loans for sex !
(Now how about a hooker wanting a loan ?? sounds so easy ! )

A brush is mightier than the gun

NYPD cops shoot down an 18 year old teen who was 'armed' with a hair brush.

Here are some points to note:
a) 911 call done by the victim's mother.
b) 5 cops - as much as 20 shots.
c) witnesses say the teen had dropped the 'weapon' before cops opened fire.

Now here is a Law to be passed by the Congress.
- shooting by the cops should only be done after the sight of a weapon.

( now that leads to a debate on what can be defined as a weapon. This is nothing new in a country which had trouble defining 'Sex' ( Forgot the Starr report and Clinton impeachment ? )

King Tut's face

Finally, we see King Tutankhamun's face . Looks very much like the mummies of Peru, but the most interesting thing is the efforts of the archaeologists' to recreate the face ! We had to wait 3000 years Mr. Tut !














Look what they have done to him ;)
Interesting facts only someone who was alive 3500 years ago could have confirmed .

• King Tut had buckteeth ;)
• He was killed when someone spanked him on his face with a heavy frying pan !!!
