==============================================
My son returned from Nellore the other day and was describing just now the latest exploits of his 4-month old daughter Ishani.
Her auntie visited and gifted her a Rs. 500 Note. Ishani took it in her left hand, and was about to chew it clean when it was hastily retracted.
This reminded me of a True Story told me by Rasoi Lal:
KGP circa 2000:
Punna Rao was his co-khalasi in the Welfare State of Indian Railways at the sprawling Railway Workshop.
One fine evening Punna got his Pay Commission Arrears of Rs. 10,000 in the form of a bundle of crisp new Rs 100 Notes.
On their way home, Punna got full, high, tight and reached his Railway Quarters. He straight went over to his favorite Laxmi, his pet buffalo.
Laxmi was lying on her back and ruminating. Punna squatted on her back, bent over her head, dangled his currency bundle and started gloating, singing and making merry.
In just a second of absence of mind (whatever was left of it), he found that the bundle vanished; crunched and shredded by Laxmi.
Punna swooned instantly, was carried to the Railway Hospital, where the Doctors on Duty declared him: "Brought Dead".
