Are we getting too serious in today’s world? When was the last time you took time out to discover something weird & wonderful…? Something that may have been done just for laughs or with some kinky weird reason behind it! Know something weird? SHARE IT with us! Here’s an invitation for one and all… young or old… to go WEIRD… UNUSUAL… OUT OF THE ORDINARY!!! No it’s not the Adrenalin or the hangover from winning the Indo-Pak match talking…nor is it an April fool’s joke! Out here at Compare we are actually asking you to join in our ‘weird competition!’ One that you don’t want to miss! One with no hidden catches…slogans to be filled or answers to be given!

So apart from focusing on the match this Saturday…let’s start digging through those old emails… Look up the ones… that go ‘It happens only in India!’…if it’s strange read up about it! If it’s weird even better! Start downloading all weird and interesting facts that happen only in India!  Or pick up those cameras and start exploring your surroundings! If it’s interesting start clicking! You have until the 6th April 2011, 10.00 AM to come up with something new and unique!

It’s your chance to find out whether India has its own toilet-themed restaurant like Taiwan (No kidding) where every customer sits on a toilet and eats on a glass table on top of a sink. Food is served on miniature toilets, and you drink out of miniature urinals… you guessed it right if you think the food is designed to look like p_  _ p!

And while each of us have our own opinions about MIS-matched couples, do you think there’s anyone In India that might actually follow in this Los Angeles secretary’s footsteps or did something this weird? Well Jannene Swift found a ROCK solid companion when she …err… officially married a fifty pound rock! A ceremony officially witnessed by more than twenty people! Well she certainly didn’t have to worry about “throwing” her ‘HUBBY’ out! Or better still giving him the STONE cold treatment!  ;0)

But ‘rock’ solid companions aren’t the only things people are looking for apparently! When Sharon Tendler a 41-year millionaire rock promoter from Britain found love in a groom 6 years her junior, she met 15 years back…it took ‘fishing’ for a groom to a new level all together! The groom being her longtime love: a dolphin! According to Tendler, it was love at first sight and the union was toasted with mackerel, to the cheers of hundreds of spectators.

While we sure finding something or someone like the ones mentioned above may be a bit difficult in India, do you think India might have its very own Rifca Stanescu, a 25-year-old Romanian housewife believed to be the world’s youngest grandmother? While she had her first child, a daughter named Maria, at the age of 12. Although she urged the girl not to follow her example, Maria got in the family way when she was only 11 and gave birth to a son, Ion making Stanescu a grandmother when she was only 23!

What about a Stefaan Engels, the 49-year-old asthmatic from Belgium who completed 365 marathons in 365 days! That’s 9,569 miles of running, in 7 different countries! Now we are not looking for another Stefaan! But anyone inspired by him thinking to doing something like that out here in India? And while we are asking for strange & weird things, it need not be restricted to just people… Do we have a Paul the Octopus to predict the outcome of the WORLDCUP finale? Or know of other strange animal facts like the Aphid’s (lice), its reproductive cycle is so fast that females are born pregnant!

Or you can even tell us about some weird town with names like ‘Cut and Shoot, Texas, USA’ or ‘Why, Arizona, USA’?

It could even be an amazing fact like the one mentioned here! In 1996, a septuagenarian former Indian Air Force (IAF) Sital Singh Bagi, who retired as warrant officer from the IAF in September 1986 found himself fighting a 12-year-long legal battle to prove that he was not dead after a local Punjab court declared him dead in 1996 on the basis of evidence submitted by his family members! The court finally ruled in his favor mid-February 2011 after a long battle.
