The Goan Slumdog



Our friend from Moira, Juze Bostiaum, appeared on Kaun Banega Crorepati,
Amitabh Bachchan hosted show from Mumbai. Juze had miraculously reached the
end of the rounds by saying all his Rosaries & Novenas & had already won Rs.
50 lacs.



"You've done very well so far," said Amitabh, "but for Rs. 1 crore, you've
only got one lifeline left - Phone a Friend. Everything's riding on this
question... will you go for it?"



"Sure," said Juze. "Aum ek last chance marta!"



"OK..... The QUESTION is..... Which of the following birds does NOT build
its own nest? a) Robin, (b) Sparrow, (c) Cuckoo, or (d) Crow"?



"Heje mainchem cazar... I not knowing dat," said Juze, "so better use my
last life line, and phone to my friend, Pedru Pochok- (Actual name: Pedro
Pacheco) from Mumbai. He's a Mangy, but a Bandra boy, & born & brought up in
Mumbai, so he's too smart - a real shaana buggar."



Juze called up his friend in Mumbai, told him the circumstances and repeated
the question to him.



"Arree Baba!" cried Pedru, "Sarko Endo Mure Tu, Simple it is ..it's a
cuckoo."



"Ah-vois, sure mure Pedru?" asked Juze.



"Arre Baba, hundred percent sure re! Pakka!"



Juze hung up the phone & told Amitabh Bachan, "I tell Cookoo."



"Is that your final answer?" asked Amitabh.



"Sarkem sure, Sir!"



There was a long, long pause, and then Amitabh Bachan screamed, "Cuckoo is
the correct answer! Juze, you've won Rs..1 Crore!!"



The next night, Juze threw a big party for all the people from Moira, at the
Moira Club. Pedru was specially flown in from Mumbai, as the Chief Guest.



Time for speeches ... Juze takes the mike & asks Pedru, "Saang mure, Pedru?
Foo told you? How you know cuckoo isn't building its own nest? Otherwise
you're sarko bondo & you know nothing about birds. Your Fadder or ticher
(teacher) taught you, ah-what?



"C'mon yaaar! Bas-kya! What yor saying?" laughed Pedru. "You Goan Pãos are
sometimes such daffars. Man.. Everybody knows a cuckoo lives in a clock!"
