Laugh a little

SMS laughs Knock! Knock! Who is it? Misbah… Misbah who? Mis bah 5 runs! Misbah thought he was sending the ball into no man’s land. Little did he know that there is a Mallu in every corner of the world. PS: Misbah played very well and thanks to him we won both matches.

Man in the mirror, refreshed

(This is a partly recycled post. I have done some ^C & ^V to an earlier post that you may like to read) "I'm starting with the man in the mirror, I'm asking him to change his ways, and no message could have been any clearer, if you want to make the world a better place take a look at yourself and make that change..." - Micheal Jackson Very powerful words with a deep meaning, how often we have heard the world is bad etc etc. Not a day will pass until we hear some one complaining about the poor infrastructure, bad roads, cleanliness, pollution, corruption and many of the ills that plague the world around. I think its time to wave a red flag and say STOP right there! It is your right to express you opinion (even blog! ; ) ) about something that concerns you, but what have you done about it the problem? How many times have we seen well educated, well mannered people with high social standing complaining in public fora about the civic problems plaguing us and

Chriz tagged me because he liked these questions. And as the world is round my tag has returned to me. Just a word of caution, you wont learn much about me from these questions (yes, I have been truthful) 1. Pick out a scar you have, and explain how you got it. The scar on my nose, It started off as a simple mosquito bite but constant itching and a little scratching made it permanent. 2. What does your phone look like? Last time I saw it, it still looked like a phone. A Sony Ericcson W810i to be precise. 3. What is on the walls of your bedroom? Paint!!! (I'm partly colour blind, so don't ask me what colour.) 4. What is your current desktop picture? I had blogged about my desktop picture. 5. Do you believe in gay marriage? Are you crazy? It will work only where men and women don’t know how normal marriages last. Yet another silly invention of the west. If man did evolve from apes, ever seen one male ape doing another? 6. What do you want more t

I'm still celebrating a famous victory of the Indian cricket team at the oval. After a superb team effort built on a fabulous opening partnership from the superb partnership firm Tendulkar and Ganguly, the icing on the cake was laid by one young spark. Take a bow Robin Uthappa!!!! You deserve all the applause.

Teacher??????????

I remember being taught “matha, pitha, guru, deivam” or “mother, father, teacher, god” way back in school during my earliest Tamil classes. The order of priority may vary and I’m sure is an intensely personal issue, but the fact that parents and teacher are elevated above the Almighty shows the roles and responsibilities they have. However we have seen incidents that were probably going on for so long but now have been brought to the public eye by our innumerable media houses, incidents like beating, abuse, molestation, rape and other unspeakable abuses the children endure under the hands of teachers. Too often we see teachers committing crimes that deserve the strictest possible form of punishment and often getting away with it easily. Yesterday we saw a teacher in a girl’s school trapped in a sting operation by a Hindi news channel. Her crime (yes, it was a woman), drugging her students and making pornographic movies with them, later on using these movies to threaten
