India… let the pictures speak for themselves.
Hi Guys,
So this is the last post about India, well for now 
This time I am not writing much, as the title says, let the pictures speak for themselves.

Google Adsense
If you’re a frequent Geekbazaar visitor, you’ll notice that there are some extra Google related things - an icon to Google’s Firefox plugin and a Google Adsense advert in one particular article. I just put these there ad hoc to see if it makes any difference (and money), especially because of the increase in traffic since posting the CNN Orgasm video.
Sex sells.
Meanwhile I’ll try to find time to play around with the location of these new entities, make it more effective and less intrusive. Maybe get a simple logo or design update as well. Just maybe …

alternative motivational posters
The mention of “motivational posters” brings up images of classic photography of mountains, nature and sunsets. If you’re anything like yours truly, you’re bored with this crap - its way too typical and has become more than just a cliche.
Which is probably why AMPs look so much better.
India…. as they say… Incredible India!
HI guys and geeks and (super social saying) e-friends,
hope life is fine. So the 2 months journey came to an end, well coming to an end tonight. Wish I could stay another month at least but I already have plans, but if I knew, I would have planned for a 6 months stay at least.
It has been a long time since I posted last, but we had heavy monsoon. Internet here doesn’t work well on a sunny day, so imagine in a heavy raining day! We didn’t even have electricity for about a week! Fridge?? no.. no we do not have fridge lol!
Well, how was India?
Nature, impressively beatiful, wonderful, althought I was attacked once from a crow! (not the best experience I had in India)
Indian Kids? They are really, but really beautiful.. still me and the other volunteers are still wondering how they can be so beautiful when you never see a beautiful grown up indian lol!
Indian women don’t shave their legs but they shave their arms.. (no first hand experience..at least the legs part :p)
Indian Food is really good in the North, in the South it is not bad, in the centre where I was, it was really crappy. In fact I was confused most of the time if I was shitting or pissing!
Although these people are really poor, you can find a television in almost every house around, even in houses where they have the roof made of leaves!
I’ve been to a garden where a legend states Krishna (One of the Hindu Gods) was born. They have a room in the middle of the garden, which they leave open with a bed. Every night they leave food there. Every morning they find that the food is gone, and that the bed was used. During the night, neighbours hear noises but never saw anything, and they believe that Krishna, every night goes in the garden and is dancing with women, many women as they say, every night! Well to be honest, the person who takes care of the garden, seems to have fun in this bed every night, dancing with women!! (ghandu wicc ta nittien ta vera!)
I’ve been to a village activity, where some people cook food for all the village (picture available at a later stage in life). It was awesome. All village people sitting on a hill, they cook food (food? no wonders, typical rice, samber and ragi balls) in big pots, to mix things they use tree trunks as the pots are really big, and you need around 3-4 men to mix these things. Plates? Banana tree leaves! Bowls? some kind of small leaves stiched together with small sticks you find under trees! Yeah it was fun, really nice atmosphere. Just before we started to eat, this hairy, long beard and hair guy stood up in the middle of everyone and starting shouting and then everyone was clapping, well I found out he was the village priest. All priests I’ve seen, they are all weirdos!
I’ve been to Taj Mahal! It is really beautiful, much more than what it seems on picture and tv documentaries!
If I have to come back, will I? For sure yes, and for sure I am coming back, but this time it has to be some longer period, something from 3-6 months
Well enough for now, have to rush off to the centre so that they can take me to the airport after eating..
hope to see some of you while enjoying (as Sandro says) a .MT beer!!

The CNN orgasm
Exclusive geekbazaar content.
Someone was definitely having fun!
I was watching the CNN Daily on Miro this morning when I hear an orgasm coming through my speakers. I made sure there were no porn popups / videos in the background .. and went back a few seconds in the CNN video.
And again - I heard it - the sound of the male orgasm.
Check it out for yourself.
Below is the part that we’re interested in
I just wonder how come no one noticed or complained about this .. and how it stayed up for4 days on the CNN site.
