the great hardin co talking tour - latest installment

Hello. My name is bideshigirl and I will talk for long periods of time this evening about my 3 years in the 'desh. Here are the highlights:

• I was very white in a very brown country
• The food is generally in baby pooh colors eaten with rice and your right hand
• You don't want to know what you do with your left hand
• I came home with head lice once and pin worms the second time
• Giardia isn't a bad intestinal parasite to have
• Tapeworms are
• You can beat children there and they offer the stick to do it
• 'Desh is the most corrupt country in the world, 5 years running (TI)
• In political chaos currently (ok, moreso than normal)
• The clothing is very bright and colorful
• Yep, 85% of the country is Muslim
• Yep, it floods yearly and if they're unlucky, twice a year

Those were the highlights. Thanks for snacks and decaf coffee afterwards. It's been pleasant.
