Dear Santosh,
Since Mario Goveia once told us that an entire town in
Portugal is named after his family-name, we can safely
assume his family comes from the higher echelons of
Goan creme-de-la-creme. Hence, Mario inorder to lead
by example, must change his name to Mario Godiva.
Henceforth, whenever we think of Mario, we think only
of good chocolate rather than that town in Portugal.
As for me, since I've recently been dubbed a
caste-apologist by Mario, I'm getting rid of this
Arabic Gulfie name my parents gave me, and changing it
to Ana Maria de Costa e Pinto de Figaro Figaro Figaro.
