THE DOT...... FINALLY, SOMEONE HAS CLEARED THIS UP.


For centuries, Hindu women have worn a dot on their foreheads. Most of us have naively thought this was connected with tradition or religion, but the Indian Embassy in Ottawa has recently revealed the true story.

When a Hindu woman gets married,


she brings a dowry into the union.


On her wedding night, the husband


scratches off the dot to see


whether he has won a convenience store,


a gas station, a donut shop, a taxi cab


or a motel in the United States .


If nothing is there, he must remain in India


to answer telephones and provide technical advice


to callers from the United States .
