(27)	Flash light. 

At the airport checking counter, the agent said “$25 for 

checked bag.” 

“I could further down-size and carry my stuff in a carry-on 

bag, the next time around,” Juggernaut murmured loudly. 

“We are considering a charge for a carry-on bag as well, sir,” 

the agent gave a friendly hint. 

“OK.” 

•	A person of South Indian decent with a supply of sambar powder, 

dry split peas to make sambar, culture to make plain yogurt, lime or 

mango pickle and tamarind paste can survive on any place on earth. 

Pressure cooker comes handy to cook split peas to make dhal or sambar. 

Sambar with a variety of vegetables eaten with steamed rice and finish 

the meal with plain yogurt rice with lemon or mango pickle on the side 

is all needed to survive. Juggernaut did it.
