Amreeka mein 3 type ke...

So, I got in touch with an old buddy of mine. After the usual 'what have you been upto' and 'wow, your work sounds extremely interesting' type of conversations, we veered to women. We were in vehement agreement that our experiences with the fairer sex over the last few years had been a series of well orchestrated blunders, German-engineered errors & unmitigated disasters, all at once. When asked about the types of women I had encountered (ok, 'met' is a nicer word.) in my time in the US, I said:

There are 3 kinds of Indian women in the US -

1. married or engaged
2. seeing someone else
3. single and not worth it

But, oh wait, there is also a fourth kind - single, cute, funny, interesting, well read, smart and not interested in you!

My buddy's contention was that, wherever you go, the following equation always holds true:
Beauty x Brains x Availability = Constant

After this brief interlude, we reverted to mutual discourse on our favorite topic under the sun - computational fluid dynamics. ( Now now, easy on those chants of '...And you wonder why...')
