Incidently, this guy also was one Mr. Pinto who had not visited his native Karnataka for a long long time. A Goan male maid died and the coffin needed to be accompanied by some one. He was Pintos old friend and therefore offered his help in reaching the body to Goa. In packing his small briefcase (may be 10 Kg.) he bought a bigger one to fit in the other stuff. And then another one. So total 3 pieces of baggage. An used TV and a video which he claimed was gifted by his departed friend. His total baggage weight easily crossed 100 kilograms and he left. On reaching Goa Pinto managed to find the airport manager to whom he gave the documents and rushed to the Vasco Rly station immediately. Pinto reached home but the dead body remained for a long time until Pinto had to return the next day to prove he had accompanied the body. This Pinto was little greedy and its a true story. No jokes on dead bodies please. Relish it. Jack. Stanley Pinto [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Gadzooks! Is there no limit to Goan ingenuity? Not to mention not-so-petty larceny? - End forwarded message -

It was sent by one of the daughters. When they opened the Lid, they noticed that the dead body was very tightly squeezed inside the coffin, with no space left over. A Letter placed on top of the body read as follows: Dear brothers and sisters, I am sending our mother's body to you since it was her wish that she should be buried in the cemetery of the Moira church only. Sorry, I could not come along all of my paid leaves are consumed. You will find inside the coffin, under Mai's body, 12 cans of Kraft cheese, 10 pkts of M M chocolate and 8 pkts of Wrigley's chewing gum. Please divide these among all of you. On Mai's feet you will find a new pair of Reebok shoes (size 10) for Mario. Also, there are 2 pairs of shoes for Rosy and Berna's sons. Hope the sizes are correct. Mai is wearing 6 American T-shirts. The large size is for Mario and the others are for my nephews. Just distribute them among yourselves. The 2 new Levi's jeans that Mai is wearing are for the boys. The Swiss watch that Lourdes wanted is on Mai's left wrist. The Rosary is for Sister Josephine. Leopoldine Aunty, Mai is wearing a necklace, earings and Ring that you asked for. The 6 white cotton socks that Mai is wearing must be divided among my teenager nephews. Please distribute all these uniformly and if anything more is required let me know, since our Pai is also not keeping well nowadays - Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail is new and improved - Check it out!

[Goanet]Re: Goan Joke
Hi everyone, This is to just clear any misunderstanding some of you may have regarding the joke I had posted on the GoaNet. I have in no way claimed that it was written or composed by me. Actually, it was sent to me by a friend, and since I found it to be quite humorous, thought of sharing it with you'll in good faith. I do not dispute the fact that Cecil Pinto may have written the original joke... I would appreciate if he shared some more of these with us ;-) Excuse me once again if I caused misunderstanding to the readers, which was unintentional.
