Oh, I dug it. Here's me and eight new Desi homies who started hanging with me around at Chamundi Temple during the whole Pongal festival yesterday:

Yeah, I even got bindi dotted up for extra hilarity in that (of course, none of the Desis did). That whole event was probably the most f*ed up I ever got without alcohol or drugs. But I immediately knew this Pongal shit was dope when I started seeing cows painted yellow walking around downtown Mysore yesterday morning.
Chandigarh will unfortunately will have to wait for another visit later this year (when the weather sucks, that is). The office lead there is down here all week, so now there's little point in me going up. And I fly back Tuesday at 4am.
Congrats.
