Dahler Mendi! I love that guy! He's the guy that did Tunak Tunak Tun, possibly the most epic music video of the '90s.

I would link Bolo Ta Ra Ra, except that it's not the techno remix I have (and ADORE) and some jerkwads are being ugly Americans in the comments. Turban != Muslim != terrorists. GEEZ.

is this just some sort of pattern recognition on my part, or are they saying "good morning"?

That *isn't* how you wake up every morning, Whelk? Color me surprised.

You can wake up like that every morning in my neighborhood.

Devon's Desi corridor is one of the best-known and largest communities of its kind in North America. It exists mainly on Devon between Ravenswood Ave. and California Ave. South Asian shops, restaurants and grocery stores abound along this strip, and it has become a popular tourist destination. Vivek Mukherjee of Rediff.com writes, "There are similar desi markets in New Jersey, at the famous Oak Tree Road or in the Bay Area, but nothing like Devon Street. [...] Devon Street's sidewalks are even speckled with the paan stains" [5].

There is an Indian food restaurant in my (former) town that plays Indian music videos on a wide-screen TV. It's really hard for me to maintain a conversation with so much wonderful and ridiculous dancing going on.
