Mission possible

Think Tom Cruise .. think him trying to climb the cliff, spreadeagle trying to get to the next toe hold. Cut to Mumbai .. his Indian twin making his daily "make it to work on time" mission possible. More people smashed together than the much cliched "sardines in a can", the poor soul holding to the ledge of the bus by a single hand, toe hold on to the step, the other toe holding on to a hole in the buses iron armour and willpower to hold on...

What makes it possible ... us !! letting someone else stick on inside your "personal space" (thats what the Americans call it, right !), the skill of the much maligned toe through ill-fitting sandals to hold on to naked iron holes and magic indian phrase thoda adjust karo please .. only we can do that !
