[Goanet] "Pig's Delight"
Poetry: === "Pig's Delight" === It's not just a rumour or idle talk, That pigs re-cycle the sh*t into pork; So where would be Goa's disposal rights If the pigs did not have good appetites? They gobble with relish and pray for more, And patiently wait at the sh*t-house door; So with Epsom salts and syrup of figs Please do think kindly of Goanese pigs, So sh*t well and truly and do what's right, For what you don't want, is a pig's delight!

[Goanet] PIG'S DELIGHT
The short poem by Dadaji gives me an idea. I hear that the Gattis are poluting the fields with their blatent ignorance of basic sanitary procedures. Graham Green the famous author had travelled through India and had landed in Goa and of course observed first hand the sanitary and recycling methods that were in use in Goa, namely our pig cleaned toilets. He was so impressed with the sanitation in Goa which, though primitive and to a certain extent disgusting, still ranked as the foremost in cleanliness in the whole of India. He suggested in his book that India would do well to emulate the example of the Goan sanatiry system. I wish the Gattis would learn something from this and not turn our sanitary Goa into one big toilet as they have turned Bombay (Mumbai) into. In fact we could ask them to leave Goa and institute this system in areas where they came from. It would beneift them in two ways. They will have a sanitary system and the pigs will then provide them with meat and perhaps they can also learn to prepare and sell Goinche Cherisam. Manuel (Eddie) Tavares duk...@bell.net
