Now this is how you must explain things to us men. Only then can we fully appreciate how difficult life is for you girls. JC will be happy to know that I will not be yelling at her for taking so long to dress ever again.

And its a funny coincidence that my buddy Ally and I happened to be talking about much the same thing just last evening. And by now I'm sure you all know how thoroughly entertaining talking to Ally can be. In fact I'm even thinking of coming out with a book called 'Conversations with an Imbecile'. Something tells me it will be a best-seller.

So we're having coffee and he says to me: Dude can I ask you a question?

Sure what is it?

Why do bra's have hooks and not velcro?

God, the things you come up with! ... How the hell should I know?

No-no but have you ever thought about it? Everything else under the bleddy sun has velcro, but bra's have hooks. Why?

Maybe hooks stay fastened better ... can't have them coming open, you know.

But velcro is equally strong ... and wouldn't it be easier for women?

Ya I guess ... but if they're happy with hooks, what's your problem?

I was just wondering dude. Maybe I can make some money from this idea - velcro bra's!

Hmm.... you never know. But considering that hooks seem to be working just fine, I have my doubts. You should ask Pudding; she'll be the right person to tell you.

You know, she wears padded bra's!

Jeez man, I really didn't need to know that! And I don't think she'll appreciate you passing on this kind of information.

Arre who cares yaar! I say padded bra's should be banned once and for all ... bleddy dames are cheating us buggers inside-out!

Can't comment on that bro. If they want to make their bazooms look different, they have every right to.

But dude, don't you think that we guys are more honest with females than they are with us? With us, what you see is what you get. But these dames are all bleddy fraudsters ... idhar-udhar thoda make-up lagaya along with fake boobs and before you know it they go from Mamta Banerjee to Biapsha Basu ... It's not fair!

Maybe the fault lies with us men - we want Bipashas, not Mamtas. So what are the poor girls supposed to do?

Anyway, woh sab chhod. Now think of a nice name for my velcro bra ... like Victoria's Secret or something. Hey you remember how in school we used to call them under-shoulder-boulder-holders and the dames used to get really pissed?

Yeah, we were a mean bunch of buggers, weren't we?

Haan yaar. And you remember how somebody asked big-mama Rajni if her bra's were made of high-tension cables ... and she went and complained to Mrs. Thomas!

LOL I remember. And Mrs. Thomas asked us if we had sisters. And all of us said no.

Dude I have a cool name ... how does Feel Free sound?

... Like a sanitary napkin! Why don't you name it after Pudding ... she'd be thrilled.

Okay I got it -- Proof of the Pudding!
