மோகம்!!!

இளைஞர்கள் தங்கள் வீட்டு விசேசங்களுக்கு, குறிப்பாக தங்கள் மணநாளுக்கு, அழைப்பிதழ் அச்சடிக்கும் போது 'ஆங்கில'த்தில் அடிப்பது என்பது ஒரு பழக்கமாக மாறி விட்டது. பழக்கம் என்று சொல்வதை விட கௌரவம் என்றை சொல்ல வேண்டும். நான் மட்டும் இதற்கு விதிவிளக்கு இல்லை.

இதற்கு விதிவிலக்காக எனது இளநிலை வகுப்பு நண்பன் ('ந. வெங்கடாசலம்') தகவல் தொழில்நுட்பத் துறையில் பணியில் இருந்த போதிலும் அவன் மண அழைப்பிதழை தூயத்தமிழில் அச்சடித்திருந்தான்.

அந்த அழைப்பிதழ் ஆங்கில மோகம் கொண்ட இளைஞர்களுக்கிட்ட சவுக்கடி!

Richest Man!

Indian share market is doing wonders for the last few months. The journey to 20K Sensex points had crossed few milestones and made the investers rich. Apart from reaching 20K yesterday, it also made 'Mukesh Ambani' the richest man in the world. A proud moment to be an India.

On the otherside, people, especially farmers, are commiting suicides as they were not able to repay the loans. What is the government doing to strike a balance?

Can Vikram's upcoming 'Kandasamy' has an answer? :)

Bomb Hoax

While driving, I saw a big crowd around my office complex (Olympia Tech Park) on Saturday. I thought it as a cinema shooting but felt something fishy when I saw NDTV Broadcasting vehicle.

After I returned home, I learnt that it was due to a bomb threat and the entire building was scanned to confirm it as a hoax. The authorities didn't take it light even though, it was the 3rd call of this type in a week.

May be just to keep the authorities busy, or just to make his/her office to declare a day off. ;)

Rain! Rain! Rain!...

In one of my previous blogs, I have scribbled about the forecast of rains this year and the prediction was over written this week. The rain god did overtime for more than 24 hours.

My experiences with flood last year, and the year before were tiresome. In fact, both in 2005 & 2006, my experience was of same kind, the flood water entered into our house.

The rain didn't show me any mercy this time. I & my collegues went to Avadi to attend a marriage reception. While returning, the road got blocked and were forced to take the longest route. With no cabs available at office to drop me at home and Hema & Kirthik waiting for me at home, I had no options other than catching a bus.

After a heavy shower for the last two days, the Sun is back to its brightness. Time to Relax at least for a while.
