Am I day-dreaming all these sequence of events, Luke is back ? Suddenly, I feel a slack in the line. Oh my God, the line is broken by the shrewd wind, the kite takes a swirl and then starts drifting in the air. I stand there not knowing what to do. At this very moment, a young man suddenly appear, on a motorcycle. I asked if he woud help me in a lost and found mission to recover our kite that will provide many many hours of fun.

Having sat far from a bride and a groom who were exchanging their vows, I could hear only, "to love and to cherish" and nothing else.

I started walking towards the reception site and I heard a conversation between two ladies, one of them was saying that the broom is a bourgeois while the bride is from the upper-class.

The groom turned to his bestman and asked, "By any chance, do you know that a word 'meronym' means?"

The bride wears the silver ring on her finger which is a meronym of the hand.

After the wedding ceremony, there was a small reception, where all the guests were dancing on an upbeat tune along with the bride and groom.

The band was originally from Wales, an area of the UK where they prefer to keep their regional language Gaelic alive

Investing in the stock market at a time like this will get you nothing except burnt fingers.

And It seems like all your bills are burned to ashes when the stock declines steeply.

We can't castigate anybody for the current downfall of the stock market. Can we?
