Reminds me of Hindu women on karva chauth day

Quite a professional lot by the looks of it. We could do with more of that on days like karva chauth instead of getting other half to run around coutryards & parking lots in the freezing cold looking for the moon!!!

Shivam, LOL! While I disagree with the basic premise of karva chauth too, this is so much different. I guess you missed the joke.
30in2005, never mind their looks. Notice how the rest are doing just fine or are they in line?

Perhaps he was introducing a secular element to the joke!

Did I miss the joke? No, but it did remind me of karva chauth, when Hindu women keep bothering themselves about sighting the moon.
Confused: perhaps.

Shivam, yes you did. At least ‘Hindu’ women don’t use the telescope to see the moon.
October 9th, 2006 at 12:44 pm reply
I think it’s time we start using more scientific methods instead of physcally looking for the moon from a high rise building.

Interesting photo. Actually even I can’t find a joke here. Yaar they have to spot moon often in cloudy weather and the first moon is very slim and appears for a short while before it disappears so they have to convince the devotees also that they have seen it. Try hard….else in some rural areas people claim they have seen while in cities where there is more smoke it is not seen and so confusion over Id on which day….
And it is common in India. Read Lucknow Hindustan Times or Pioneer and you will find such a photo once every couple of years…..it is an old practice because Ruyat Hilaal (Crescent ) Committee has to declare moonsighting for entire states (spread over districts and crores of people).
