The Taj Mall and Other Indian Wonders

Contrary to popular knowledge, the nation of India was quite sophisticated long before any European involvement.

The emperor Shah Jam, tired of being a second rate business Mughal, decided to open an attraction bound to reel in the big rupees - the Taj Mall. After trying for many months, he finally found a willing insurance provider, and thus spent the next twenty-two years perfecting his elaborate mallsoleum. Upon completion, the monstrosity of a mall contained a dozen curry bars, numerous Vietnamese dry cleaners, a very extensive Planet Bollywood, several reincarnated petting zoos and even, over the holidays, a Buddha photo booth for the children.

Families from far and wide gather for their kids to have a picture with Buddha.

Other areas of India also enjoyed commercial prosperity. The New Deli Supermarket became famed throughout the Orient for it's tasty tofu products, including Bamboo on a Stick and Veggie Sikh-kabobs. Other hits were Black Rolls with Low-Cal Butter and Sacred Fig Newtons.

Bollywood, of course, was also just taking off around this time. Movies were slow in coming, since most of the population just wanted to watch reality T.V., in particular Bombay Idol, Bad Karma, Pimp My Elephant, Punjab'd, and Delhi or New Delhi.
