Once an Engineer walks into a bank in Mumbai & asks for a Rs. 50,000 loan.
The bank asks for Security & the guy hands over the keys & documents of his 7-Series BMW which is parked on the street in front of the bank.
After all necessary checks the bank agrees to grant him the loan.
... The bank's President & all officers enjoy a good "laugh".. For the Engineer , who used a 1 crore BMW as collateral against a Small Loan of Rs. 50000.
The car was parked in the banks garage safely.
2 months later the guy returns & repays Rs. 50,000 & the interest which comes to Rs. 1250.
The loan officer says, Sir v r very happy to do this transaction, but we r a little puzzled, while u were away, we checked u out & found that u r a "MULTIMILLIONARIE", then why did u bother to borrow 50,000??
The Engineer replies, where else in Mumbai can I park my car for 2 months for only 1250 and expect it to be there when I return?? 
The Engineer smiles & says.. Pleasure doing Business with you all....
Dont mess with engineers

It wasn't recursive, it was repetitive.

Oh dear, apart from this being done in so many ways before there are a few other key problems in the post.
1) We don't like txt speak. "Sir v r"
2) We don't like txt speak. "checked u out"
3) We don't like txt speak. "that u r"
4).....don't think I need to go on.

Yeah you are right.. In US People won't speak like that. If you notice the entire story was build up in India Mumbai Location. So the text is different and it's not US English 
Well I'm also a Indian now residing in US
Thanks,

Doesn't matter - we still don't like text speak.
If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

Good writing skills are essential for a developer.
Writing precise, comprehensible specifications is hard; getting well-written documentation is an unmatched joy.

I don't believe you until I see you kill a buffalo with your tomahawk. And were the Indians not there before the settlers came and before the United States?

Just joking. I'm very aware of Columbus' little error and him never realizing that there are, depending on how you count, one or two continents in the way.
And I also don't think that any of the American Natives I have met would really be so dumb to hunt a buffalo with nothing more than a tomahawk. Not that there are too many buffalo left to hunt nowadays.

>> Not that there are too many buffalo left to hunt nowadays.
Yes it really surprised me at first when I came to US. Not just buffalo's , I do not see many others including cows too.. Where as it was just opposite in India where you find every where. Not just in villages, You will find many crossing roads or near by.
Thanks,

For cows you have to go to Texas. Some of the cows there even wear boots and a Stetson and point guns at you.
Ok, just joking. I really liked it in Texas and I don't want to have to flee over the Rio Grande with a sign 'I'm not a Gringo!'

Mumbai was the only capital city I’ve never heard this joke associated with. Although this is the first time the car is something as crappy as BMW.
There is only one Vera Farmiga and Salma Hayek is her prophet!
