He is completely unaware of being video recorded! That is what makes the clip so great!

So he is making the rice balls (aaraam se!) and pushing them inside like an ammaanai set!

I am reminded of the elephants which graced the Jaan vaasam of our eldest Athimber!

We were watching how they ate an aNdA full cooked rice with

a kuNdA full of saambaar made onto throw-ball-sized-balls!!! :wacko:
 
I am sure that there are many gender related problems.
Hearing defect and leg pain fall in that category.

Most of the people who had difficulty in walking are invariably women - young and old, lean and fat, short and tall...all were affected in the same way.

Most of the people who had problem in hearing and talking coherently and fluently are invariably men.

Many of them are exposed to dangerously high decibels at work and while traveling. I am sure most of them have forgotten to talk coherently and express their views clearly and concisely.

May be they are on the receiving side and never on the delivering side of long speeches ... thanks to the mAmis and their monotonous monologues!!!
 
Dare Devil Dame! :cool:???

While waiting for two hours in the hall, we were forced to overhear the
interviews of several people, since they were on a mike.

A dame in the 55+ range of age came all alone for the interview.

After the finger prints were taken we were all sent to the big hall.

The VISA officer asked her very nicely,

"Have you had your finger prints taken while in USA?"

The lady said "NO!"

He asked her again, "Did you have any problem with the US police?"

She said "NO!" without batting an eyelid.

He asked her again, "While you were a USA last time did you have any trouble with the law?

Again her answer was a "NO!"

The whole cycle was repeated three times at random order and the lady held her ground and kept on saying NO each and every time she was questioned.

Then the VISA officer told her,

"Sorry I can' t approve your VISA. You have had trouble with Law while at USA. You had your finger prints taken. I asked you three times nicely.
All the three times you LIED. You may go now!" :pout:

It was revelation to me!!! He did not mind her fingerprints being taken!
He did not mind her getting into trouble with the law. But definitely he minded her persistent and cool lies.

I remembered my sons repeatedly telling us every time,

" Never tell a lie. If you do not know say so! Do not try to guess the answer and utter falsehood! :nono:

So the thing most detested in USA is a lie! :lie:

It WAS so in 2012 and it is so even today! :moony:

Dear Sis,

Memorizing any song was such an easy task in tender age! Now, the new songs learnt need 'notes', now and then. :(

Anyway, we had lot of fun learning songs in school, because the composer teacher could NEVER get the 'kunkumam'

tune correctly, when she taught us the song.

BTW, she was basically a P T teacher, but soon became 'Pulavar', like her husband Amudhan, by writing an exam. :thumb:
 
It is the troubled oyster that produces a pearl.

The unperturbed and happy oyster lives a life of perfect boredom and dies.

It will be leaving behind it nothing useful. :bored:

The oyster under constant irritation lives (and dies) to produce

a lovely and priceless pearl for some pretty girl to wear and enjoy.:music:

Life is like that!
 


If you keep your mind sufficiently open,
people will throw a lot of rubbish in it. :nono:

Morality is not merely correct sexual behavior
but includes courage and justice in all affairs of life. :angel:

ஏணியும், தோணியும்.

ஏணி மற்றவர்களை மேலே ஏற்றி விடும்.
ஏணியால் மேலேறிச் செல்ல முடியாது!

தோணி மற்றவர்களைக் கரை சேர்க்கும்.
தோணி மிதப்பதோ என்றும் நீரிலேயே!

நாம் சேர்க்கலாம் இவ்வரிசையில்
நம் ஆசிரியப் பெருமக்களையும் கூட!.

எண்ணும் எழுத்தும் கற்பித்தவர்
என்றும் இருப்பார் ஆசிரியராகவே!

அக்கறை கொண்ட மாணவனோ
அக்கரைச் சீமையில் பணிபுரிவான்.

என்றாவது ஒருநாள் அவரை நினைத்தால்
குன்றாத மதிப்பு வைத்துள்ளவன் ஆவான்.
 
How strange!!!
These two 10 lettered words have

9 letters common and only one different!

D E P L O R A B L E
D E P O R T A B L E

But the difference lies in this

While many deplorable may not be deported for many reasons

many of those who may be deported are certainly not deplorable!
 
The more I see of men, the less i like them. If I could say so of women too,
all would be well.

If I could always read, I should never feel the want of society.

There is something to me very softening in the presence of a woman,- some strange influence, even if one is not in love with them-which I cannot at all account for, having no very high opinion of the sex.

What is poetry? The feeling of a Former world and Future.

(Lord Byron)
 
With just enough of learning to misquote.

It's strange-but true; for truth is always strange;
Stranger than fiction.

Now hatred is by far the longest pleasure;
Men love in haste, but they detest at leisure.

Merely innocent flirtation,
Not quite adultery, but adulation.

(Lord Byron)
 
Dasaratha was a clever king and he has a lesson to teach all of us.

We always think of traveling in one of the four or eight directions.

But he was wise enough to include the upward and downward directions also

in his plan. When traveling in one of the four / eight directions become an

impossibility,the other two directions will come in very handy! :thumb:
 
The hurricanes with rolling eyes prove how powerless man really is against the raw wrath of Nature!

YET man dreams of conquering the outer space - while he is powerless even on his own planet The Earth!

Can it be true that certain V.I.Ps look eagerly forward to natural calamities

since the money that they can extract as compensation will be an additional

income??? :noidea:

Naai vitRa kaasu kuraikkathu allavaa? :wof:
 
Some people (like me ) try to make life as easy as possible.
I do not believe in adding more difficulties to my already difficult life.
But some others are the exact opposite in this matter.
They have to catch their own nose only around their head and never ever directly.
They end up doing weird and unwanted things in their house.
They create additional bottlenecks in the sensitive areas and intersections in their house.
The dishwasher will obstruct the way since it will be left open with the loading trays drawn out.
The car will be parked so that it will be impossible to open the door and and get in!
These things can be set right in jiffy but they prefer to have it that way!
 
Imagination is a poor substitute for experience.

Once a teacher...always a teacher! :roll:

Even if we stop teaching students, we will treat everyone else like our
students and start teaching / preaching. Look at me for an undeniable example! :blabla:

Many of us spend half our time wishing for things we could very well have had, if we had not wasted all our time wishing for them.
 
Hi,I am vaisanava das living in the East Coast of Malaysia.I spend my time reading the Srimad Bhagavatam and tutoring students.I hope through this site I will be able to keep in touch with my society as this part of the world see the scarcity of Indians.
 
I show you doubts, to prove that faith exists.

Truth never hurts the teller.

Women hate a debt as men a gift.

Works done least rapidly, Art most cherishes.

Truth is within ourselves.

God is the perfect poet, who in His persons acts his own creations.

In the morning of the world, when earth was nigher heaven than now.

Faultless to a fault.

(Robert Browing).
 
It was a surprise that INTERNET was not available for several hours in USA where we live now.
I can understand and accept this happening in India.... but in USA! :nono:
May the Solar flares caused it or may be some other reason!! Worth investigating!
 
The height, weight, girth, structure, style, speech, language may all be the same

but people will FAIL identify that the real identity of both persons is the one and same!

We have seen in many movies how a wart/ handkerchief around the neck/ a mustache / a goatee / a pair of goggles can

make a person his own other twin and no one including the ardent lover and admirer will get deceived!

The Font/size/color/ style (if you may call it that) all will remain the same and yet all people will think

(or are supposed to think ) that the poster is a brand new member

even when he rushes in and makes a beeline to where he had left his original belongings! :rofl:


 
இரட்டைவேடச் சொற்கள்

அச்சில் வார்த்தது போல இருவர் இருப்பர்.
மச்சம் ஒருவேளை சற்றே மாறுபடலாம்!

ஒருவர் நல்லவர் என்றால் மற்றவர் தீயவர்!
ஒருவர் வீரர் என்றால் மற்றவர் கோழை!

ஒருவர் அரசன் என்றல் மற்றவர் ஆண்டி!
ஒருவர் அழகன் என்றால் மற்றவர் குரூபி!

எத்தனைத் திரைப்படங்களில் பார்த்திருப்போம்!
தித்திக்கும் தமிழிலும் உள்ளன இது போன்றவை!

ஒருபோலவே காட்சி அளித்து
இருவேறு பொருளை அளித்து
மயக்கி மருட்டுகின்றன நம்மை!
மயங்காமல் அவற்றைக் காண்போம்.

பெயர்ச்சொல்லாக வரும் பொருள் முதலிலும்
வினைச் சொல்லாக வரும் பொருள் பிறகும்
அளிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளன வரிசையாக இங்கு!
