Check out these pictures of people in India painting "Happy Christmas" on their forehead -- in English but in Devanagari script. (Yes, the Reuters caption is wrong in both 2010 and 2011. It is English not Hindi.) I think only one of the p's in happy is pronounced though, so I would lean towards using प instead of the प्प conjunct.*) The first picture also has a Christmas tree, but I didn't noticed it until some time after seeing the second one.

I wish I could put the pictures right here but I don't want to get myself or the forum in trouble with Reuters -- enjoy:

Happy Christmas 2010

Happy Christmas 2011

I wish I could find out the story behind this instead of just seeing the pictures. They should interview these guys.

---
* After thinking about it further, "Happy" is a popular first name in the Punjab (at least in the movies), so maybe it is now considered a Punjabi and Hindi word by now, with its own standard spelling in their respective scripts.

Ha ha! That's awesome!


And may Cody have mercy on your soul when he catches up with you.

I don't think he'll be doing any catching up anytime soon. But maybe some ketchup. . . :P
