Tongue which can see

The title of this article seems a crazy idea. But this is what technology has been doing to our lives: giving advancement we cannot even begin to imagine. In such a recent advancement quoted as one of the path breaking innovation in the last half a decade, a device “Brainport” has been introduced by Wicam and will be sold by the end of this 2009. Research shows that tongue is more sensitive than other skin areas i.e. abdomen, fingertips and back used by other systems. Moreover, the nerve fibres of the tongue are closer to the surface, there are more of them and there is no stratum corneum (an outer layer of dead skin cells) to act as an insulator. So, “Brainport” utilizes this capability of the tongue to see.

“Brainport” collects visual data through a small digital video camera about 2.5cm in diameter, which sits in the middle of a pair of sunglasses worn by the user, could be available for sale later this year. The information is then transmitted to a hand-held control unit, which is about the size of a mobile phone. The unit converts the digital signal into electrical pulses and sends this to the tongue via the lollipop that sits on the tongue.

The lollipop contains a grid of 600 electrodes, which pulsate according to how much light is in that area of the picture. The control unit allows users to zoom in and out and control light settings and electric shock intensity.

According to Robert Beckman, president of US-based Wicab: “It enables blind people to gain perception of their surroundings, displayed on their tongue. They cannot necessarily read a book but they can read a sign.”

The device certainly comes at a price of $ 10000 making a hole in the pockets. But it has the potential use of being a great help in the fields of Military, Navy, Robotic Surgery and Gaming.

On a concluding remark, a research which began in the 60s has proved to be a supportive innovation in the field of communications and reaffirmed our belief in use of technology for effective communication.

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE IN THE WORLD……..

Doctors and scientists said it was impossible.

“Man could not run a mile in less than 4 minutes! He would die in the foolish attempt. It was an impossible dream.”24 year old Roger Bannister endured thousands of monotonous laps to prove it wrong. To date 955 runners have achieved the impossible dream accomplishing the feat an incredible 4700+ times.

Many of life’s barriers and obstacles come from within. Success is a choice to be chosen wisely because the choice you make today will determine your world tomorrow. Perhaps a few words today need to be redefined.There is a peculiar tagline which prints itself on various t-shirts across the world every day. It simply says “Impossible it self says I am possible.” It would not be an exaggeration if I remark the word needs to be redefined from “Something which cannot be achieved” to “Something which will be achieved in the near future”. In this supersonic era our ideas and actions are shepherded with the belief of everything being possible. The generation has moved on from “I can” attitude to “I will”.Had I been writing this piece of work half a century decades ago, it might have been flabbergasting. But today the word “Impossible” rings up memories of all miracles and innovations I have witnessed or heard off. What these innovations have brought in, is a transition in the mindset of people and the passion to re-infuse the chimerical effect of more innovations. The idea is to keep on challenging the limits and continuing to break them.

Human mind today has reached a level where it is allowed to wander in all spheres of life leaving it beyond the control of mankind.When I remark “Nothing is Impossible”, I quote it in an era where the world has found a solution to almost all the problems of the universe.
Setting up a news channel- A SATELLITE AWAY
Need a cloned cousin- FEW MONTHS AWAY
Need detailed information- A SEARCH ENGINE AWAY
Need shahrukh like dimples-VISIT THE SURGEON
Want your feotus to be a combo of Einstein and Madhuri- VISIT THE IVF CLINIC

How did this happen? It happened through a series of actions initiated by a few freaks who believed “Nothing is impossible”. Passion in a few men who dared to think different made the world we live in today and the impact spread to all areas of the globe.Let us consider the field of science. Had our forefathers thought of gadgets which could keep our heart pumping? Did they ever hear of a chip made to insert in brain? Science has made our globe a better place to live in.

There are drugs being developed to fight memory loss, nanotubes which will zap cancer cells and monitors working to test sugar level without requiring blood. My vision is, in a few years from now, we would retire from Earth when we desired and re-appear again when we want. Does all this sound contradictory to the word “Impossible”? Offcourse it does.A quick peep in technology gives us a further instant feedback. A loved one just a video conference away, live coverage directly from Mars and plastics from medical implants. All this to every couch potato sitting at home. Can we ever smell a perfume or print a taste while shopping online? While you think of the answer someone in the world has already started research for it. Sounds soothing to ears but the experience is just a decade away.While I talk about science and technology, a few other instances haunt my mind.

These are those events which have left us feeling passionate, spooky and sometimes even confused. Some call it the power of the world, some call it a supernatural ability, some call it a miracle, the fact is they are here to stay. You can glorify or vilify them but one thing you cannot do is ignore them because they have re-imbibed the belief of “Nothing stands Impossible Today.”

Chris Stewart, an 11 year old boy classified as non-survivable by doctors fights all odds of paralysis, strokes and iron rods to survive. A man from a small village near Tamilnadu lives without water and food since last 22 years. Hellen Keller, a blind deaf woman shows the world that a blind man’s mind can be educated, his hand can be trained and his ambitions can be realized. Warren Macdonald climbs Tasmania's Cradle Mountain, Africa's tallest peak Mt Kilimanjaro and America's tallest cliff face El Capitan using a modified wheelchair. Kishore Biyani starts a small shop to sell tailor-stitched pants known as pantalun at that time which later on emerges as the famous chain of pantaloons. A soda fountain sold by John Pemberton becomes the most sought after drink as Coca-cola round the world. Nadia Comaneci becomes the originator of the perfect 10.The preceding passage gives an idea of how man has broken the limits of impossibility.

Though certain instances were far from being impossible, they make the feeling of ambition and vision re-visit our minds and there are simply others which leave us confused as to how it happened. This world, indeed, is not short of miracles.

After failing twice, Edmund Hillary quoted “I will come again and conquer you, because as a mountain you cannot grow but as a human I can”. In this world nothing is impossible when a few humans exist who want to prove their madness right. Be it the idli entrepreneur Sharad babu or the zealous Ratan Tata, the success stories are here to stay forever. What is worth the effort is that how each individual contributes to making everything a sheer possibility. If each human on earth gives his very best to whatever he does, the chances are the yet unsolved mysteries of life could become the thing of past. Its just for the humans to think and to give their best. If each individual can change the way they see the world, they can literally, change the world.“Think the impossible and the possible will emerge”

YOUR DECEPTIVE REFLECTION:

Well this article was written by me almost a year ago. It might need some re-writing but I am simply not in a mood to do so......There might be ppl who wont agree to what the article is about but just a simplification. The article does not talk about isolation and desertion. It talks about doing what you have to do at the end of the day cause what matters is your own self and not what others want you to do. Needless to say, it does not mean harming the sentiments of others or hurting others. We live in a society and certain norms need to be followed and certain type of behaviour is expected out of anyone. Looking at the present scenario, i think if everyone would have been behaving the way they should, THE WORLD WUD BE OBVIOUSLY A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE IN. Be it Mr. Thackarey or the closest person in my life, a certain behaviour is expected and if it does not happen, it hurts someway or the other....Anywanys this is quite controversial and why deviate from the topic......Does the title click to you?? Before you doubt my sanity, mull over these questions.Who is your role-model in life?YOU YOURSELF or someone else???When was the last time you did something you wanted to and not because your friends were doing it?WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WERE YOURSELF?Okay….guys….i have not gone nuts..waht am I trying to tell you here is that the hard core reality of our lives is taht we end up doing certain things not cause we felt we shud be doin it but because others did it or others wanted to do it...”Be what YOU ARE and not WHAT OTHERS WANT YOU TO BECOME”.Any fashion label slaves?????I m sure ther r Millions, not denying the fact I m one of them…..Someone sets a trend and WE follow it. Why not create our own?Youth ICON…….. Indian IDOL…….oh gosh! What not we talk about!Youngsters today tell this to everyone around “I AM A FREE BIRD”. This is how they define freedom possibly?Hanging out late with friends(coz the friends wanted to not THEM) ,To take THEIR own decisions all by themselves ( which are not only barely influenced by others but made by their friends)blah blah…..We wear stilettos coz they are in fashion… We join mba cause millions do…..why??Its simply because we allow others to RULE our lives. We crystallize ourselves in fetters which rein in hands of others. Our PERCEPTIONS “match” in COMPROMISE. We spend time with friends(wow….cant live without them..even if it meant going to a place where we didnt want to go), colleagues(wow....i get to know all gossips in the world like whose sleepin wit whom...though no one knows whether they are true or not) and relatives (my promotions will burn them up….i am loving it…).How often do we spend time with OURSELVES?? No time…..certainly not…its coz we don’t want to. We evaluate our lives the way others do for us. why want to be someone else when no one can be me?Remember this phrase from a renonwed company“Those misfits,Those rebels,Those trouble-makers,They have no concern for status duo,They do not bow to hot seats,They push the human race forward,You can glorify or vilify them,But one thing you cannot do is IGNORE them,Because one who thinks can change the world Is indeed the one who DOES IT”Think different and BE YOURSELFBe yourself; everyone else is already taken. - Oscar WildeIt's quite possibly the most commonly used phrase in the history of advice: Be yourself. But it's such a vague adage. What do they really mean when they tell you to be yourself? And is it really as easy as it sounds?Being yourself simply applies being the way you want to live and not how others think you should live...............It may be......Havin pani-puri alone or going to a movie alone cause no one wants to join you but you want to do it.............TRY IT...ITS FUN...........It ll give you time to ponder how imp you are for ur own self..............At the end simply conclude by saying one thin............DO ALL THE THINGS YOU WANT TO DO IN LIFE AND DONT DO THINGS BECAUSE OTHERS WANT YOU TO DO IT....LIVE FOR UR OWN SELF BUT ONCE AND SEE THE DIFF......................WARNING: this article does not apply to morally corrupt, indecent and unacceptable behaviour and to unlawful activities...hhehehehehehehhhehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

India of my dreams.

India is the land where a Hindu Prime Minister offers her seat to a Sikh who in turn takes oath from a Muslim President to offer his services to a population consisting of Hindu, Muslim, Sikhs, Christians, Parsis and many other ethnic group. India is a nation where dozens of festivals and celebrations take place every year and where the universe looks up to learn its scriptures, traditions and culture. India is the nation where second largest population in the world uses largest number of cell phone and telecommunication services. A nation characterized with euphoric mall mania, where newspapers are published in all languages spoken, where the quality of living of people has undergone a major transition and where every person coming at the doorstep is respected. “Atithi Devo Bhava.” This is that side of India which is digging more into the prosperous opportunities and plunging ahead giving their foreign competitors a toss for money. It is that India which is getting recruited in MNC’s, successfully running KPO’s and BPO’s and leading India on path of success. This is the aggressive and opportunistic India.
But there is one more India. An India where only 65% of people of entire population are literate, where the health services are so poor that every 4 minutes a woman kicks the bucket due to lack of post-natal care, where farmers commit suicide due to failure of crop and where more than a majority of children below age of 5 are anemic and mal-nourished.
The side characterized by frequent community altercations and low male-female ratio. This is that face of India which is contradictory to the prosperous India and co-exists with it since decades.
Today, we talk of India as a fast growing economy with growth rate of 8% but we fail to talk about unequal distribution of income. India’s HDI is much below the expected level and the per capita income is flabbergasting. We talk of malls and hypercities changing the way people shop, in a nation, where majority live in darkness clad poverty not affording two square meals a day.
In all the adrenaline rush of fast moving service sectors, trillions of worth of FDI’s and FII’s, strengthening of rupee, profitable railways and more, we easily side-lined the most gravest problems of India. Lack of infrastructure, imbalance of population increase and job creation, health and hygiene conditions are the termite which are weakening the very foundation of the castle of high growth rate and opportunities. On the other hand, bureaucracy, red-tapeism, community oriented politics and the likes are the pinch of salt on the burning problems.
Gandhiji, Jawaharlal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shashtri, definitely did not envision such an India plagued with internal inefficiencies and problems. As a citizen of India, I and many others dream of India to be a place where every child is literate, where every man stands against injustice and where every individual enjoys the fruits of growth rate.
India has been predominantly an agrarian economy. But comparing agricultures share in GDP (apprx 16%) and share in unemployment (apprx 55%) it dawns to us that we have failed to increase agricultural productivity. Our 5 year plans have failed to encourage agriculture. Our year by year growth in agriculture is as low as 2.3%. Millions of tones of food grains are wasted due to lack of proper storing and transportation facilities. I dream of an India where each individual gets two square meal a day and India becomes self sufficient in food grains.
The Indian government needs to invest heavily in education and infrastructure. A nation where population increases by 200000 every day, allocates merely 2% of budget to education. An increasing investment in infrastructure will also lead to more employment opportunities. I envision an India where every road and every city is astonishingly clean and where citizens are themselves conscious to use garbage bins. When the Indian economy will no longer be an opportunity only to the rich class, our dream will be fulfilled.
It is only we citizens who can bring a difference in the sad scenario of today. When one person will initiate an action, the whole India will follow. Every person initiating an action will lead to a shift from negative face of India to a positive face of India. Health and hygiene are such issues which cannot be improved upon until and unless every individual decides to fight it up passionately.
There will be many temptations to diverge but a strict adherence will bring a shift in even the most rigid of minds.
India will be the one of my dreams “when the entire literate and healthy population can afford eco-friendly technology of every form and eat hygienic food offered at a reasonable rate and fight against all injustice meted out to them.” Dreams are merely a pre-vision of a future plan. But to make this dream a reality, every Indian will have to join hands to move towards it. As Rabindranath Tagore puts it:
“Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high,
Where knowledge is free;
Where world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from depth of truth;
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, Let MY COUNTRY AWAKE”

Time and Tide wait for no man

“The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep”
These famous lines of Robert Frost explicitly reflect the realities of life. “Time” has been a centre of attraction for many proverbial expressions. The fictional characters propagate the concept of Time-machine. Bollywood is also taken up by it, producing films which not only encapture time to run as per their command but also alter it to run fast or slow. Love story 2050 is one of the latest flicks to show this. But why is “Time” being so much talked about?
The answer lies in the fact that “Time is uncontrollable by man.” The same man who has learned to produce test tube babies, insert a chip in human brain, built hotels on heavenly planets and moon, cur the deadly of diseases, has not been able to conquer time. So, the irony of life is Time keeps running and moving at its own standard pace. An interesting observation is it runsat a speed constant for all. The poetic side of me takes a grip over my mind to comment “Time is unbiased to all masses: rich, poor, young and old.” Time constantly belabors mankind to learn this lesson from it. But why is an efficient use of Time so much talked about?
The answer is crystal clear: the activities of entire universe depend on time. Sales targets are given for fixed time, offices open and close at fixed time, even our salaries are paid after a fixed time. As we move from place to place “Time may Differ” but it will never stop. Our watch may give up to dead cells but “time” goes on without tiredness and boredom. Analyzing the axiom “time and Tide wait for no man”, it can be said it holds true since centuries.
During primitive stages of human evolution, noon and night became time. And the mighty sun never ceased to rise and set every day, year on year. For centuries sun became the metron of time, guiding mankind to eat and sleep. Mankind evolved over the century and even the measurement of time changed but time, in itself, never came to a standstill. Over the centuries Time was digitalized. But it was never mastered by man to be able to control over.
Since decades time is as momentary as sand in our hands. it slips and slips, the more we try to hold it back. “It will never wait for anyone. It never has.”
So, hoping that time waits for us is a futile attempt. We have to run to match the pace of time. As I sit here and write this, there will be someone fighting with time to survive, someone, someone who would be challenging his own time as a cyclist and someone who would be sulking without the realization of time running away.
The same time and the same days have never come back though “good times” and “bad times” have. The challenge lies in making the best out of the time, of each moment, of each minute and of each second. When the whole nation goes to bed with the feeling in heart “ I could not have performed better than this”, it is then, in true sense, can it be said that we have started valuing time.
We are the creators of our own future. Its up to us to decide how we use it.
Had time and tide waited for man. Tsunami would never have occurred! Lives would never have lost and pogrom would not become the everyday phenomenon.
“what is there is a minute?”
Ask the girl who got late to see her dying mother.
“what is there in an hour?”
Ask the man who lost the fight.
“what is there in an hour?”
Ask the man who lost his flight.
We all are controlled with constraints of time. The field of “Time management” and diploma related to it, do not teach us to alter time, it rather teaches us to manage the given time.
“time and tide wait for no man”. The axiom will hold true till the time machine is invented. And till then accelerate your pace to run with times.
“Time does not lay in our hands, we do in its”

Egg-JAM Fever

It is 3.15 in the afternoon. A wonderful, chilled and silent Sunday. Penning down has been in my mind for quite some time now......I start today...
BBAites are the most busy people in the world(atleast they claim to be so)..
Tell you why!They are always struggling to get things straight, submitting reports on time, reaching lectures before attendance is over (yeah...attendane.A dreaded word for those who dont attend college....) and the list goes on...
Welcome to the world of BBA.A place where the mid-sems come even before the trauma of CRTs are over, where the mid-sems start even before you get the drastic results of last semester and the submission of report may fall on any day in between the mid-sems. This is BBA.
When 2 days back i was feeling the same pang of deadly schedule as those hundreds of BBAites studying in the same college, this is what came to my mind.......
Our deadly mid-sems are not so deadly as we think them to be. They are a means of entertainment which seem hard to come by after a few years. 5 papers 5 days and then tons of fun....Thats wat they say at BBA. Rather I put it this way " 5 days fun and after that more fun". Analyse the schedule of exams, its so entertaining.
Some typical things about our mid-semesters:
Calling up @ 1 p.m. just to ask a silly doubt (the other person wonders which subject is the latter talking about). After asking the silly doubt of which none know the solution, both deeply diagnose what went wrong in the sem and why they did not attend lectures.
One hour before the exam everyone walking in the corridor, yelling, greeting, asking "kitna course chhod diya?"....Sympathisizing with people who have left more course than you.Last moment revisions for some as they call it (waht revision!!!!!!!!!!people like us even could not do it once)
Exam hall, tense situation and unexpected questions. The moment someone asks for a supplementary the whole class is staring at him. (he is gone after exams...itna to kya likha paper mein)
After exams everyone is dreading over the realisation that they should have attended lectures (I am a part of it offcourse), asking others "was it more disastrous for you?".....and offcourse bullying our very own SCHOLARS whose papers are always fab.....just yesterday one of my friends told me he wud not be giving marks equivalent to my marks even if he joined marks of two semesters ( This does not mean I am too good. It just effectively means I belong to middle-marks class category)
There is one person in our college whose too excited and happy when our exams near. No points for guessing Its the owner of the college xerox centre. The centre is flooded with students of all years begging to get quick xeroxs, bribing him even threatening to go to some other if he didnt do it soon. Then there is masi whose filling our stomachs when our minds are empty ( behind every non ATKT student there is the canteen masi)
The point I am trying to make here is that these days wont ever come back...I agree life is tough but get pleasure in all small things happening around you,.....Dont Dread MID-SEMs Enjoy them.....
I find mid-sems a beautiful way of expression ( everyone is blurring #$@& after exams inspite of knowing its their fault). Its fun to hear those frustrations, May be after a few years we will laugh over this when we realize what true frustration is. The idea behind writng about the most loathed word "EGG-JAM" is that Love each moment of it. The pesky calls at night, desperacy to pass, bugging scholars for doubts, the weird expression when you forget while writing an answer, the dark circles, intense conversation with god, the smile when you know the answer, the frown when you don know wat the paper is talking about, the last moment verification of answers, trying to copy unsuccessfully, trying to camouflage from spying invigilators and so much more....These things will never come back after college...............LIVE EXAMS TO THE FULLEST...THEY ARE FUN....JUST TRY!!!!!!!!!!!
While writing about exams I recollect this SMS which takes its around every exams.
THE MOST IMPOSSIBLE THING ANY BBAITE WOULD EVERY SAY:
Mera course Khatam ho gaya, Tera kitna baki hai?
Then there are many morerumours you get to know during exams like THE PAPER TOMORROW HAS 100% OPTION.
Recently there is an upcoming trend SY BBA. We call it the SUBJECT-EFFECT. Our wishes of good luck start in an unusual way.
The SMS before respective SUBJECT goes this way:
COST ACCOUNTANCY: Install the answer sheet of your neighbours effectively in your cost centre unit "MEMORY" and maintain the minimum level of marks. Keep mechanical device for time-keeping and absorb the overhead answers. Remain in touch with the inventory for physical verification and reconcile with good marks.ALL THE BEST
BUSINESS LAW: Bargain of answers with your neighbours is a valid contract. The exceptions, however, being scholars for it is a void agreement. In case of contingencies, performance of contract becomes inevitable as capacity of parties is limited. In case of breach of contract, see the other party after the exam. The revocation of contrct is illegal in terms of exams. ALL THE BEST
INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS: Trade of information during exams is a feasible idea leaving the importer as well as exporter at a cost advantage.TRIPS to toilets be frequented and the conference should be held every ten minutes by representatives of various classes to exchange valuable information. An equlibrium in balance of payment is essential for mass approach to Non ATKT atmosphere. ALL THE BEST
And the list goes on................Off course I am obliged to say i started round of these SMSes and the history continues...Nothinh like bringing a smile on the faces of those hundreds who are facing the pang of exams....so next time when exam comes just remember one thing.LOVE EXAMS, ENJOY EXAMS AND CHERISH THOSE MOMENTS FOREVER. After college life, they will never come back (even if you become an invigilator).......
I hope i have conveyed my message......Toodles

Hammer the Hammer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good evening.....Its 11.00 o'clock at night, not quite late but feeling hazy and dull already. The day has been tiring and boring basically. It sucks your energy when your sitting in college doing nothing for two lectures. Many people would not agree with me on this but then if those hours are not constructive time-pass they are rather a waste!
When the day starts with some mind-boggling sums of CAT and you are half thru solving sums and understanding logic, you become very ENTHU in life.(Only to realize its only for some time, You have not conquered the world yet and many things need to be worked upon. Bashhhhhhhhhh................. I just fell from my castle of dreams to kingdom of reality. oh yeah! Conquering CAT is like living in a castle of dreams but then its not quite impossible as I can create a beautiful castle of my dreams on a sea shore and keep on reciting "She sells sea shell on the sea-shore" after my retirement. But taht would be offcourse after I TAME THE CAT. The mighty CAT would arrive in few months and I am all eagerly waiting to experience it. as one of my friends always points out "Jo hota hai acche ke liye hota hai". So what ever will happen will happen for good!)
The title to this article is quite absurd but a mere translation could prove some guys wrong that I am writing this from Karelibaug. Hammer the hammer in hindi would be "hathode pe hathoda maro". Today I am here to describe a hillarious situation which I fortunately encountered few days ago. Such situations happen once in a while in everyone's life and I suggest just keep your mind aside for some time and enjoy those moments.
Few days back an atmosphere of mysterious maddie laughing gases surrounded me and a two cousins of mine leaving us still craving for more. I have no idea if we get to laugh this way again but this article is a mere tribute to it. Having completed a voluminous meal, (Marwadis are known for eating...any marwadi listening????) I along with my cousins was sulking in the bedroom. And there it began.....The outpour of laughter wrapped in installments and intervals.
The youngest cousin of mine (not so young, his in 9th std to be precise and believe me these 9th stds are like more into whats who and where than anyone else in the world. They ll catch you making funny faces and precisely know what each funny expression indicates.) insisted that we shuld have a round of SMS Hathodas to feel light.( WE needed to WE had hogged food)
The first joke went this way : "You have 2 cigars on a boat but no source of fire. How would you light it in the middle of the river?" Both my cousins started thinking but could not think of anything so they gave up and i finally began. First one: Throw one cigar in air and catch it. Catches win matches. Use those matches to light cigar.
Second one: Throw one cigar in the river. It will make the boat lighter. Use the lighter to light it.
Third one: Take some river water and let it fall drop by drop. You know that " Tip tip barsa pani, pani ne aag lagayi."
( Ppl don kill me for this. I told you keep your mind aside to read this.)
My cousin was about to shoot me when Mr. chhotu (Our not so young 9th std cousin) started with his round of it. Dont remember all of it but only those few typical ones which heightened the giggles and noises inthe room. He began there was one Sardarji and my cousin started laughing assuming that the joke was over. Off course the joke was never completed and (pl any of the Sardarjis don have any regrets.....You bring cheer to our lives. Thankyou for keeping us lighter). In our session, we proved that Jackie chen's mother in law aws VICKS VAPORAB ( Chen ki saas....) We also argued that Jackie chen was not married (btw is he married??? Just asking for general info) and we even argued he would never catch cold ( Jackie are you listening????????????????..)Apart from this my cousin also proved opposite of achar is onion (Achar=PicklePickle=Pee-kalOpposite of Pee-kal is Pee-aajPee-aaj=Pyaaz (onion)................................................)
The epitome of laughter came with this one.
Mr. chhotu began: There was a sardar who bought 12 dozens of chickens to establish a poultry farm. After one week they died so he bought 12 dozens more. This continued for almost five weeks. At the end of Five weeks he was heard saying to his worker "Thodi uuchi gadna neechi gadne se mar jati hai". The joke was not much of a scene as compared to the after effects. My cousin suffers from selective listening ( half dreaming half listening). She missed the starting of the joke and at the end was bend on proving it was not a joke at all. It was logically correct and we were trying to fool her by telling it was a joke and she would not waste her laugh on it and so on. the result was i almost fell from bed laughing while mr. chhotu was arguing trying to prove it was a joke. It did not end here even the elders joined trying to prove it was not a joke ( They didnt even know the joke). I dont know if anyone is feeling annoyed reading thsi but it would make more sense if you could imagine the situation and live it with me.
A second one came. What is the name of kalida's cousin who makes shoes?.....Before any one could answer my cousin started laughing in the middle of the joke. Later on we were informed my had understood the previous joke (The joke of chickens).....Imagine..........Can any ones mind work taht slow???????.. The answer for kalida's cousin's name was ADIDAS. However mr. chhotu kept on shouting charan-das so my cousin misunderstood the joke as "whats the name for ADIDAS's cousin....". The confusion went on.
The last joke to witness the confusion was one related to Tamilnadu. "What would you call a good looking girl on a vacation in Tamilnadu?"............. Before the answer could uncover, my cousin claimed she had understood why ADIDAS's cousin was charan-das. It was because ADI-das is one related to ADI (the one in our leg) and so the answer was charan-das. No one bothered to correct her. We were fed up. However, the answer to the Tamilnadu question was "TOURIST". My chhotu cousin remarked spontaneoulsy he ahd understood the joke as a beautiful girl would be fair and fair girls are not there in tamilnadu so she was a tourist. I still quite know if his explannation on true but i still keep laughing over all this. Then offcourse there were other jokes like "What would you call a shayar whose just started with shayari business and his shayari are always based on ham??" Guys jus don guess this cause its the most illogical thing I have come across. The answer is "NEWHAMSHIRE".
My article was just to bring it to notice that sometimes hathodas emerge out of existing hathodas.
KEP URSELF LIGHT AND LAUGH A LOT..
Milo chalti muskan..............................More smiles per hour..............
IS MY POINT NOTED??????????????????..............................
