Wanting to get at the bottom of the mysterious 8216;feel good8217; factor which everyone was talking about but no one was quite sure what it was, I decided to ask some happy looking people what the fuss was all about. The first person I bumped into was this long-haired guy who happens to be working in a call centre8230;.

ME: So, are you feeling good?

HIM: Yo, 8217;course man! Aren8217;t you?

ME: Quite. So, tell me, what makes you feel so good?

HIM: Geez, man8230;don8217;t ya know: INDIA is SHININ8217;!

ME: Now how did I miss that? But that still doesn8217;t explain why YOU are feeling so good8230;

HIM scratching his head: Geez man, I neva8217; thought of that, maybe it has somethin8217; to do with pa8230;pa8230;p8230;
