How many of these 100......शंभर मधल्या किती ?

Some interesting fun stuff.....


Sylvia From Over the Hill, in her recent post, mentions a list of 100 things. She found this on another blog, and when I started to check which of the things I could tick mark, I found a lot of stuff , kind of irrelevant to the subcontinent. So I have modified certain entries below to reflect the geographical relevance.

The activities in color are those that I have done. One waits on the others, though I am not exactly desperate to " # 87 ' kill and prepare an animal for eating' " (I'm vegetarian), or " # 67. "Bounced a check" . I desist from " #10. singing a solo", out of consideration for the people around me.

Those NOT of a secretive bent of mind , might want to post their stuff ...... Copy the 100 entries, and color the ones you have done........(mine in purple-pink)
