நண்பர்களே ஈழப்போராட்டத்திற்கும் ஈழ மக்களுக்கும் எம்.ஜி.ஆர் செய்த உதவிகள் அளவிட முடியாதவை. அதில் ஒன்றை உங்களுக்கு சொல்ல விரும்புகிறேன். ஒருவேளை இது நீங்கள் அறிந்த செய்தியாய் இருக்கலாம் அப்படியாயின் செய்தியை தெரியாதவர் தெரிந்து கொள்ளட்டும். எம்.ஜி.ஆர். முதல்வராக இருந்த சமயத்தில் நமது வீரமிகு தலைவன் அண்ணண் பிரபாகரனும் ஈழதேசத்தின் குரல் ஐயா பாலசிங்கம் அவர்களும் சென்னையில் தங்கி இருந்தனர். அப்போது அவர்கள் சிங்கள ராணுவத்துடன் போரிட வெளிநாட்டிலிருந்து வாங்கிய ஆயுதங்கள் அடங்கிய ஒரு கண்டெய்னர் சென்னை துறைமுகத்திற்கு வந்து சேர்ந்தது. அதற்கு சில நாள்கள் முன்பு தான் வேறொரு இயக்கத்திற்க்கு சொந்தமான ஆயுத கண்டெய்னர் பிடிப்பட்டது எனவே இம்முறை நமக்கு அவ்வாறு ஏற்படாமலிருக்க வேண்டும் என்றநிலையில் எம்.ஜி.ஆர் அவர்களை அவர்கள் அணுகினர். எல்லாவற்றையும் செவிமடுத்த எம்.ஜி.ஆர் உடனே ஒரு சுங்கத்துறை உயரதிகாரியை டெலிபோனில் கூப்பிட்டு 'இந்த கண்டெய்னர் எண், இந்த இடத்திற்க்கு வந்து சேர வேண்டும்" என்று கட்டளை இட்டார் அதன்படி அந்த கண்டெய்னர் சென்னை திருவான்மீயூரில் குறிப்பிடப்பட்ட வீட்டிற்க்கு வந்து சேர்ந்தது. அதன்பின் ஈழத்திற்கு கொண்டு செல்லப்பட்டது. இந்த உதவி மட்டுமின்றி அதற்கு சில நாள்கள் கழித்து ஈழப்போராட்டத்தை தொடர நிதி சிரமம் ஏற்ப்பட்ட போது அண்ணண் பிரபாகரன் அவர்கள் ஐயா பாலசிங்கம் அவர்களிடம் தயங்கிய படியே எம்.ஜி.ஆர்_அவர்களிடம் உதவி கேட்டால் செய்வாரா என்றார். அதன்பிறகு எம்.ஜி.ஆரை நேரே சந்தித்து சொன்ன போது எவ்வளவு பணம் வேண்டும் என்று கேட்டார் அதற்கு இருவரும் 4 கோடி ரூபாய் இந்திய பணம் தேவைப்படும் என்றார்கள். உடனிருந்த பண்ருட்டி ராமசந்திரனிடம் எம்.ஜி.ஆர், நாம் ஈழத்தமிழர்களுக்காக சேர்த்துள்ள நிதி எவ்வளவு அதை இவர்களுக்கு நேரடியாக தந்து விடலாமா? என்று கேட்டார் உடனே பண்ருட்டி ராமசந்திரன் அவ்வாறு தருவது முறையாகாது மாறாக ஈழப்பகுதிகளில் மக்கள் நலனுக்கான சில திட்ட வரைவுகளுடனும் மதிப்பீடுகளுடனும் வந்தால் தருவதில் தவறில்லை என்றார். அதன்படி திட்டம் தயாரிக்கப்பட்டு 4 கோடி ரூபாய்கான செக் எம்.ஜி.ஆரால் பிரபாகரனிடம் தரப்பட்டது. இச்செய்தியை உடனிருந்த சில பேர் பத்திரிக்கைக்கு கசியவிட்டனர். பத்திரிக்கை தன்னுடைய தலைப்பிலேயே "எம்.ஜி.ஆர் விடுதலைபுலிகளுக்கு பணம் தருகிறார்" என்று எழுதிவிட்டன. இச்செய்தியை கையில் எடுத்து கொண்ட இனவெறியன் ஜெயவர்த்தனே ராஜீவ்_வை அழைத்து வானுக்கும் பூமிக்கும் குதித்தார். சினங்கொண்ட ராஜீவ் எம்.ஜி.ஆரை டெலிபோனில் அழைத்து "இந்திய இறையாண்மைக்கு எதிராக நீங்கள் செயல்படுகிறீர்கள் அது இது" என்று குதித்ததை கேட்ட எம்.ஜி.ஆருக்கு மிகுந்த கோபம் வந்துவிட்டது. சில மணி நேரங்களில் பிரபாகரனையும் ஐயா பாலசிங்கத்தையும் வரச் சொன்னார். அவர்கள் வந்தவுடன் அந்த செக்_கை திருப்பி தந்து விடுங்கள் என்றார். கைக்கு எட்டிய பணம் நம் இனத்தின் போராட்ட உதவிக்கு கிட்டவில்லையே என்ற உணர்வுடனேயே வருத்ததுடன் ஐயா பாலசிங்கம் அந்த செக்_கை திருப்பி தந்தார். எம்.ஜி.ஆர் அவர்களிடம் "ராஜீவ்" சொன்னதை சொல்லிவிட்டு "எங்கள் இனத்துக்கு உதவுதை விரும்பாத, பிரதமர் ராஜீவ் ஒரு கோழை" இப்படிப்பட்ட கோழையை பிரதமராய் பெற்று விட்டதால் என்னால் உங்களுக்கு அரசாங்க ரீதியாய் உதவ முடியவில்லை என்றார். தொடர்ந்து எம்.ஜி.ஆர் அவர்களிடம் "அதனாலென்ன அரசாங்க பிரதிநிதியாய் நான் உதவுதை தான் ராஜீவ்_ஆல் தடுக்க முடியும் தமிழனாய் உதவுதை யாரும் தடுக்கமுடியாது" என்று கூறி விட்டு என்னோடு வாருங்கள் என்றார். பிரபாகரனையும் ஐயா பாலசிங்கத்தையும் தன்னுடைய பாதாள அறைக்கு அழைத்து சென்ற எம்.ஜி.ஆர் சிறுது நேரத்திலேயே அவர்களிருவரிடமும் தன்னுடைய சொந்த பணமான 4 கோடியை கொடுத்தார். இது நடந்த வரலாற்று உண்மை. எம்.ஜி,ஆர் எத்தனை அளவிற்கு ஈழத்தமிழர்களை விரும்பினார் அவர்களின் விடுதலையை ஆதரித்தார் என்பதற்கு இது மிக பெரிய சான்றாகும். இவையாவும் ஐயா பாலசிங்கம் அவர்கள் எழுதிய "விடுதலை" என்ற புத்தகத்தில் அவராலேயே எழுதப்பட்டுள்ளவையாகும்.

அது ஒரு 'பொன்மாலை'ப் பொழுது!

2008-04-23T18:16:00.002-04:00

தமிழக உள்ளாட்சித்துறை அமைச்சர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலினுக்கு அது ஒரு பொன்மாலைப் பொழுது. கடந்த 17-ம் தேதி மாலை தனது மகள் செந்தாமரையையும் மருமகன் சபரீசனையும் அழைத்த ஸ்டாலின், 'ஒரு முக்கியமான நிகழ்ச்சிக்குப் போகிறேன், நீங்களும் கிளம்புங்கள்' என்றார். போஸ்டர் இல்லை, வரவேற்புகள் இல்லை, கோஷங்கள் இல்லை... ஸ்டாலினின் கார் போய்ச்சேர்ந்த இடம் சென்னை வில்லிவாக்கத்தில் இருக்கும் ராஜாஜி நகர். இந்த நகரின் குறுகலான மூன்றாவது தெருவுக்குள் கார் போக முடியாததால் மகளோடும், மருமகனோடும் இறங்கி நடக்க ஆரம்பித்தார் அமைச்சர்.
ஸ்டாலின் ஆர்வமாகக் கலந்துகொண்ட அந்த விழா, சென்னை சிறுமலர் பார்வையற்றோர் பள்ளியில் ப்ளஸ்--டூ படிக் கும் பார்வையற்ற மாணவி பெனோ செபினின் பிறந்த நாள் விழா தான்! ஸ்டாலினின் திடீர் வருகை தந்த பிரமிப்பு ப்ளஸ் இன்ப அதிர்ச்சியிலிருந்து இன்னும் மீளாத செபினிடம் பேசினோம். ''ஸ்டாலின் அண்ணா அவருடைய பொறந்த நாளைக்கு எங்க பள்ளிக்கு வந்தாங்க. அப்போ நான் என் க்ளாஸ் ரூம்ல இருந்தேன்.அமெரிக்காவுல நடக்கப்போற இளைய தலைவர்கள் மாநாட்டுக்குப் போக எனக்கு வாய்ப்புக் கிடைச்சிருந்தது. இந்தியாவுலயிருந்து பார்வையற்ற மாணவியாப் போற ஒரே மாணவி நான்தான்.
எங்க பள்ளியே என்னை அந்த மாநாட்டுக்குப் பரிந்துரை செஞ்சிருந்தது. அமெரிக்கா போக நிறையப் பணம் வேணுங்கறதால அந்த வாய்ப்பை விட்டுடலாம்னு முடிவெடுத்திருந்தேன்.
ஸ்டாலின் அண்ணாகிட்ட ஹெல்ப் கேட்டா அவரு நிச்சயம் செய்வாருன்னு என்கூடப் படிக்கற பசங்க சொன் னாங்க. அவரை எப்படி சந்திக்கறதுன்னு தெரியலை.அவர் இருந்த இடத்துக்கு என்னைக் கூட்டிட்டுப் போகச் சொன்னேன். 'உங்ககிட்ட பேசணும்ணே. அஞ்சு நிமிஷம் ஒதுக்குவீங்களா?'ன்னு கேட்டேன். 'வாம்மா வந்து உட்காரு. என்ன பேசணும்?'னு அவரே என்னைத் தன் பக்கத்துல உட்கார வெச்சுக்கிட்டார். அப்போ என் பிரச்னையைச் சொன்னேன். 'மனுவா எழுதிக்கொடும்மா. நான் ஏற்பாடு செய்யறேன்'னு சொன்னாரு. நான் மனு எழுதறதுக்குள்ளே, என்னைப்பத்தி ஸ்கூல்ல விசாரிச்சார் அண்ணன். 'உன்னோட மனுவைப் பார்க்கிறேம்மா... நல்லாப் படி'ன்னுட்டுப் போயிட்டாரு.
ரெண்டே நாள்ல திரும்பவும் அண்ணனோட ஆபீஸ்லயிருந்து பேசுனாங்க. எனக்குப் பணம் சாங்ஷன் ஆயிடுச்சுன்னு சொன் னாங்க. மார்ச் 14-ம் தேதி முதலமைச்சர் எனக்கு அமெரிக்கா போக நாலு லட்சத்து எழுபதாயிரம் ரூபா கொடுத்தார். அப்போ பக்கத்துல இருந்த ஸ்டாலின் அண்ணாவோட கையைப் பிடிச்சுக்கிட்டு கண்ணீர் விட்டேன். 'ஏப்ரல் 17-ம்தேதி என் பர்த்டேவுக்கு வருவீங்களாண்ணே?'ன்னு கேட்டேன். 'நிச்சயம் வர்றேம்மா'ன்னு சொன்னார். சொன்னது போலவே வந்துட்டார். அவரோட வருகை சம்பந்தமா எங்களுக்கு எதுவும் தெரியாது. வீட்டு வாசல்ல வந்து, 'செபின் இருக்காங்களா? நான் ஸ்டாலின் வந்திருக்கேன். அவங்களை வாழ்த்திட்டுப்போக வந்தேன்'னு அவரு சொல்லவும் எங்க வீட்டுல எல்லாரும் ஆடிப்போயிட்டாங்க. அவரு கூடவே தெரு ஜனங்களும் கூடிட்டாங்க.
'எல்லாருக்கும் வீட்டுல இடம் இருக்கா?'னு கேட்டுக்கிட்டே, 'விழாவை ஆரம்பிக்கலாமே'னு சொன்னார் ஸ்டாலின். அதுக்கு முன்னால அவர் கொண்டுவந்திருந்த தமிழ்த்தாய் வாழ்த்து கேஸட்டைப் போடச் சொன்னார். தமிழ்த்தாய் வாழ்த்தோட என் பொறந்த நாள் விழா தொடங்கிச்சு. அவரே கேக்கை கட் பண்ணி எனக்கு ஊட்டினார். அவரும் ஒரு தட்டுல கேக்கை எடுத்து சாப்பிட ஆரம்பிச்சார். அமெரிக்காவுல இருக்கற தமிழ்ச் சங்கத்துலயும் நான் பேசறதுக்கு ஏற்பாடு செஞ்சிருக்கறதாச் சொன்ன அண்ணன், அங்க எப்படிப் பேசணும்னு டிப்ஸ§ம் கொடுத்தார். அண்ணனோட பொண்ணு செந்தாமரையும், மருமகன் சபரீசனும் தரையில என் பக்கத்துல உட்கார்ந்து ஸ்வீட் சாப்பிட்டாங்க. ஒரு மணிநேரம் எங்க வீட்டுல இருந்துட்டு கிளம்புன ஸ்டாலின் அண்ணாக்கிட்ட, 'உங்களுக்கு எப்படி நன்றி சொல்றதுன்னு தெரியலைண்ணே'ன்னு சொன்னேன். 'அமெரிக்கா போய் நம்மூர்ப் பெருமையை நல்லபடியாப் பேசிட்டு வர்றதுதான் நீ எனக்கு செய்யிற கைம்மாறு'ன்னு சொல்லிட்டுக் கிளம்பினார்!'' --உணர்ச்சிப் பெருக்கோடு சொல்லிமுடித்தார் செபின்.
அந்த நெகிழ்ச்சியான தருணங்கள் பற்றி ஸ்டாலினிட மும் பேசினோம். ''என் வாழ்க்கையில் மறக்க முடியாத அரிய விழா அது. தனக்குப் பார்வை யில்லை என்பதை ஒரு பொருட்டாக நினைக்காமல், தன்னம் பிக்கையைத் தன்னுள் தேக்கிவைத்திருக்கும் செபினை எவ்வளவு பாராட்டினாலும்தகும். பள்ளிப் படிப்பில் முதலி டம், உலக அறிவில் உச்சம் என செபினிடம் இருந்த திறமைகளைக் கண்டு வியந்துபோனேன். என் சட்டமன்றத் தொகுதிக்குள் வரும் சிறுமலர் பார்வையற் றோர் பள்ளி மாணவியான செபின், அமெரிக்கா செல்ல நிதி தந்து உதவுமாறு தமிழக முதல்வரிடம் கோரிக்கை வைத்தேன். அவர்களும் கனிவோடு அதைப் பரிசீலித்து முதலமைச்சர் பொது நிவாரண நிதியிலிருந்து அந்தத் தொகையை செபினுக்கு வழங்கத் தேவையான நடவடிக்கைகளை மேற்கொண்டார்கள். அந்த நிதியைப் பெற்றுக்கொள்ள வந்தபோது தன் பிறந்தநாள் விழாவுக்கு செபின் அழைப்பு விடுத்தார். அதை ஏற்று அவருடைய இல்லத்துக்குச் சென்றேன். இதில் வியப்படைய எதுவும் இல்லை. செபின் விஷயத்தில் எல்லாப் புகழும் தமிழக முதல்வர் அவர்களையே சேரும். செபின், தன் வாழ்க்கையின் எல்லா உயரங்களுக்கும் செல்ல என் மனமார்ந்த வாழ்த்துக்கள்'' என்றார் ஸ்டாலின்.
ஸ்டாலினுக்கும் செபினுக்கும் வாழ்த் துக்கள் !!!

Kushboo - The next suicide bomber

2008-01-07T18:38:00.001-05:00

I was a loyal fan of Kushboo since my childhood days. Kushboo for one was an actress who had a lot of talent. In recent months, my thoughts on Kushboo has changed dramatically. Nowadays I see Kushboo as a trouble maker and a cheap malignant controversy creator.

Iam being forced myself to write this column when I saw her arrogant posture in front of a tamil deity statue. She may not be a hindu and she may not believe in any form of worship, but she should atleast respect the belief system of the same people who built her a temple. Let us step back and think for a second. Would president (ex) Abdul Kalam, who is a muslim , have sat with the same arrogance. Would Prime Minister Manmohan Singh have done the same thing. What gives her the audacity to do such a thing ? Is she superior to them ? I believe she wants to generate controversies and be in the limelight.

1. She questioned the concept of virginity of tamil girls and pre-marital sex. Kushboo should not think all the tamil females in the same stature as her.

2. She fought with Thankar Bachaan for some lame reasons. If she had differences with him, why would she act in Maniyammai role in Periyar under his direction. Something for the minds to ponder.

3. Yesterday, she had a fiasco with Thirumavalavan. Even as a courtesy, she would not greet him when he appeared on the dias of a book release festival. So much for respect and dignity. Instead she started arguing with the audience in a public function.

Is this all a setup drama ? Is this all a way to cheap popularity ? No one knows. One thing I know is she is losing her fan base. Only time will tell. If she wants cheap publicity, I thought of suggesting a few tips to her.

1. She can air her romantic episodes with Prabhu as a mega serial "Karpukarasi".

2. She can goto a mosque with her slippers and create an unpopularity contest. Strange fact is Muslims goto Mekka trip without slippers. "Ungaluke theriyaama Suicide Bomber aakiruvaanga !!"

3. She can goto the homes of the heroines of his husband , Sundar C, and pick up "Sakalathi Sandai". May be air that a live show in Jaya TV.

4. Her blouses are a major hit in Jaya TV. May be she should appear on television in Mudhal Mariyadhai Style. This will be the ultimate controversy.

5. Pick fight with Producers, instead of directors. "Sothuku vali illaama ayirumlaa !!!!"

6. Take On, VIPs. Start a fight with Kalaignar, Jayalalitha & Ramadoss. "Nitham Nitham Serupadi and Nei Manakum Seeva Kattai !!!"

7. Publically air ,after Midnight Masala, the so called Blue film she had shot during her initial years. "Nila Kaayuthu, kushboo varum neram"

Akka kushboo, you need to realise, you cannot become a heroine again. "Ungaluku mela aduna Benazir Bhutto ve puttukitaanga so konjam adaki vasinga..illena ooru naarirum !!!"

Bus Conductor Benazir !!!

2008-01-04T19:38:00.000-05:00

If you are a regular visitor of my blogs, you would have realised by now that Iam not a fan of Benazir Bhutto. Neither did i rejoice nor was I sad at her demise. Iam blogging this edition to my thoughts on BiBi's death.

In order for you to know BiBi, you have to know more about her family and Pakistan Politics. Her father Zulfikar ali Bhutto was a zamindar's son. He was a lawyer educated in UK. He came back to Pakistan and was made a minister by Ayub Khan who had militarily seized power. Zulfikar Ali Bhutto backstabbed Ayub Khan to become the president. Zulfikar Ali Bhutto appoints his trust worthy general Zia-ul-haq as the chief of army ahead of 5 senior generals. Zia-ul-haq then back stabs Bhutto's father to become president. After 10 years Zia-ul-Haq was killed by his own generals in a plane crash. Backstabbing !!! Benazir comes to power and aides Taliban. The same Taliban she helped, kills her now. Re-make of the backstabbing episode!!!

So Bibi, who emanates from the fully-rotten-scumbag-backstabbing-politics of Pakistan succumbed to it in the end.

Power-Hungry Bhutto:

Her vision was PAK , which meant

P-Punjab A-Afghanisthan K-Kashmir - an extended version of PAKISTAN.

This was a dream inherited from her father. This was the propanganda her father used to take power from Ayub. To the extreme, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto envisioned a Pakistan with Junagadh. Junagadh is now called "Gujarat" in India and is in the safe hands of Narendra Modi. With this extended vision of PAK Bibi helped Taliban and used them to control Afghanisthan. More recently, she took an anti-Taliban stance. This is what lead to her assassination. Why did she flip-flop ? POWER HUNGRY !!!

Money Hungry Bhutto:

Benazir is not an angel !!! She just like her father was corrupt to the core. Her husband was called "Mr. 10 Percent". Following is the list of corruptions that are well documented.

1. Dassault, a French aircraft manufacturer, got a contract to replace the air force's fighter jets in exchange for a 5% commission

2. Dubai company received an exclusive license to import gold into Pakistan for which her husband received payments of more than $10 million into his Dubai-based Citibank accounts

3. Their Swiss bank accounts contain £740 million. They own a neo-Tudor mansion and estate worth over £4 million in Surrey , $2.5 million manor in Normandy.

4. Bhutto received a 7.15% commission ,about $1.969 million for supplying 5,900 Ursus tractors.

Why did she not divorce Zardari, MONEY HUNGRY !!!

So the image of her being the saviour of Pakistan is totally false. Her intent was ONLY power and ONLY money. Pakistan's Poolan Devi was their own ex-PM.

Her personal pedigree:

Her lifestyle showed sharp contrasts. The Bhutto in public life was was projected as burkha wearing devout muslim. Her attire in private life (i mean in her social circles) would earn the envy of Paris Hilton. How often do you see Hillary Clinton (or) Sonia Gandhi in short skirts and swimsuits.

Her fundamendal beliefs were different from that of most Pakistani women. So you can never say she was a true Pakistani. How often do you see leaders be in self-imposed exile when they love their land so much.

My hearts are with the people of Pakistan, who were fooled so much and my hearts are with her kids who would have longed for her motherly love. I admire one quality in her ... she was so power hungry that she put her life at stake.It takes a lot of courage and she has it in her. Ultimately She reaped what she sowed.

So Benazir Akka, local tamilla sollanumnaa.

1. Nee utta bus, unmela ye yeriruchu !!!

2. Unaku Neeye Conductor , ticket kodukura vishayathula !!!

3. Nee ooruku mukkaadu pota, unaku ipo taliban mukaadu potiruchu !!!

Kallu uttu erinju pakalaam, vandhaa maangaa yoda varatum..illena atleast kalla aachu varatumnu ninachitu kalla thooki pota !!! Paavam andha kallu un thala melaye vilugumnu yaaru kandaa ?

At this juncture , every Indian feels proud to be an Indian. In the corner of their heart, they feel sorry and remind themselves that none of their prime-ministers were so deceitful.

Mera Bharat Mahaan !!!

VAAYU, PULITHA YEPPAM, NENJU ERICHAL - Conspiracy behind chennai gas leak

2007-12-06T21:51:00.000-05:00

I came across a news that Chennai was outrageously smelly last two days. My investigations* found the top ten reasons why this happened , now !!!

10. Who Opened the Scent Factory ?

As comedy actor Vivek says , "chentu factory ya thoranthutaanya !!!"

Some one has opened scent factory

09. To prevent Tsunami lifeloss ???

Madras is being hit with Tsunami occasionally. Release of a bad gas might prevent people from coming out and walking on the beach

08. How much smell is bad smell ???

Government is conducting a study to find the tolerance level of bad smell.

This study will show that Chennai wala's have the best smell tolerance in the entire world.

07. Weapons of mass destruction test - gone bad ?

This is a classic example of WMD testing going bad. Another reason why Asian countries should never use chemical weapons.

06. Classic protest to prevent Sundal import ???

It is rumored that imported sundal (chick peas) smells horrible. Adutha veetu maligaikum manam undu nu theriyum ..aaanaa..sundal ku...ipdi oru manam irukumnu thereelaye ?

05. Vijaykanth - Arasiyal !!!!
He always said Arasiyal was a Garbage Dump and he will jump into it to clean.
Anna ..vendaaangannaa - uturungo !!!!

04. Koovam - Cleaning - Kilambitaangayyaaa !!!!

Did Saibaba begin his koovam cleaning project already ? Thanga mudiyala, nirutha sollunga !!!

03. Governments Protest to Babri Masjid Demolition !!!

Conspiracy websites say, this happened two days before Dec 6th

Officially Indian govt cannot regret this.So one other way of making ppeople regret of this bad day. Or may be to prevent people thinking about this demolition at all.

02. The day after tomorrow simulation
May be someone wanted to try "A day after tomorrow" movie simulation with gas instead of water.... !!! Low budget movie. No graphics needed as it is all gas !!!

01. VAAYU, PULITHA YEPPAM, NENJU-KAN ERICHAL ???
It is rumored that Palani Kalimuthu sithar** (famous for chittu kuruvi legiyam) wanted people to try his new product and therefore released the bad gas. I hear his new chitukuruvi legiyam is selling twice as much.

Peace (with my nose closed !!!)

p.s:

*The interesting fact is that this gas leak happened on Dec 4th and Dec 5th, 2007.

The Bhopal tragedy happened Dec 3rd, 1984. Very Strange and all the more reason to check the conspiracy theories mentioned above.

Serupadi Sindubad

2007-11-28T19:57:00.000-05:00

I was trying to make a list of people who will be in my "serupadi" (slapping with chappal) list. I will confer the title "serupadi sindubad" to the top candidate. This list is in ascending order.

8. "Show Off Desi Girls" who want to emulate Paris Hilton , the likes the university of kentucky girl who I met recently. Grow up kiddo , you can never make a sex tape like her !!!

7. The guy who took the TOMTOM GPS ($300 ones sold for $130) on black friday. Dude , show some manners !!!

6. Osama Bin Laden - All we need is one bullet to take him out. May be we should ask captain Vijaykanth to get involved !!!

5. CPI leaders like Prakash Karath - who is fighting against PM Manmohan singh on the nuclear deal. Stop getting money from China !!!

4. Hillary Clinton - She pisses me off with her fake smile. Behind every cheating president there is a fake senator wife.

3. Benazir Bhutto - She is the number #1 prostitute in the whole world. Sleeping with Musharaff - No problem , With Shariff - No problem , With Bush - No Problem and above all, even sleeping with Sonia - No Problem. What a bitch !!!

2. Deve Gowda - Sottai thatha is a total shakuni when it comes to politics. He is the male gigolo of politics in Karnataka. Either he is so good or Kannadigas are so stupid !!!

1. Mahindra Rajapakse - For killing tamils ruthlessly. You will die some day dude !!!.Pathini saabam palikum. vayiru erinchu solren !!!!!! "PINJA SERUPADI SINDUBAD"

XXX - ADULTS OF YYY LAND

2007-11-23T18:28:00.000-05:00

Last week , I was dubbed a racist by a reader. Snubbed as a loser by another. Here I come with more firepower. If people think Iam a racist because of this article, so be it !!!

XXX represents a group of people talking YYY language,
YYY may be any Indian language except Gujarati.

After all my impression of XXX was that of "radiant pink shirt wearing heroes", "chilly spicy food" in mouth-watering red color and the totally absurd masala movies. I like to watch XXX for its non-realistic-stunt-comedy. They are more funnier than Stunts of Vijaykanth and Makeups of Ramarajan. After all XXX heroes are the only breed (other than keaunu reeves in matrix) who have the power stop a train, shoot aircraft with their revolvers and perform High flying stunts with agricultural - tractors.

After coming to the US I have met a few weird XXX, who are very much stranger than fiction. This blog will get a lot of heat and all I say is "Bring it on."

1. Biggest Kanjoos of all-time:
They are the "hybrid of kanjoosiness". Give them a free coffee , they will walk for six miles. When they come to US, they usually leave their spouse and kid in India, and live alone for the last one million years. Typically, they have not gone back to India since their arrival and have no intention to bring their spouse here. Then how did they get manage the kid ? He was married a few days before he came here. So you work out the math !!!

2. Iam a fashion model-XXX:
I often come across a few girls in CT Indian Association. You will be forced to believe that they are directly from the gene-pool of Aishwarya Rai or even worse, Jennifer Lopez. You can identify them by their fake designer Glasses (Prada and Louis Vatton). They are from road side stores back in India. Even if it is original you can put your money on it being begged or borrowed or stolen from their White friends. If you talk to these folks, either you will laugh or you will run. Get a life girls !!!

3. Iam proud of XXX culture:
These people are the ones who you see fight about their YYY spirit in other regional meetings. The sad thing is all the other region members if he is Al-Gore. In my childhood days I have seen street cleaners and sewer cleaners speaking in YYY (same style). So the next time someone standsup, Iam going to bring him a broomstick and a bucket and you know why !!!!

4. Shame-less Samraats of YYY land:
They have absolutely no-shame. Even if you ask them directly, if they have any shame ?, they will use that as an oppurtunity to ask you for a favor in return. They call only when they need you. They think you have a sticker on your head which says "USE ME WHEN YOU NEED". They will go to any extent to please you and make you feel happy, when they need you. Once they are done, you will be a sewage rat. So much for their pride of YYY Land !!!

Pal, if you happen to be a XXX and if you think you resemble one of the above four, in this country you are not a Gujarati, Kashmiri, Bengali, Telugu or Hindi. You are an Indian, a Desi. Every one of us came on the same. Here you are seen as an Indian and not XXX from the kingdom that was forced to join India by Sardar Patel. See the Gujaratis and learn. Every Gujju has the habit of seeing your desi-ness and not the state you are from. Learn the Desiness. Money , pride and fame will follow you.

YYY land after all is in India !!!

Aluku Outsourcing - the story of HL visas

2007-11-15T18:17:00.000-05:00

After a strong dose of emotional reality blogging ,2 of my critics blasted me. They were reading my posting to lighten them up. "Romba Message Monalisa va illaama, konjam padikira maari eludhu." This was the advice I got. Well , I have to make it lighter , to tailor to my overseas crowd. This one is more on the lighter side. Apdi eluthulenaa, padikira 3 perla , 2 peru discontinue aayiruvanga. appuram naane eludhi ..naane padichu !!! idhai vida kevalam onnum illai...!!!

I was driving home after groceries and decided to hear NPR (National Public Radio). This is one of the popular FM radio station here.

AAMMA..AAMAA...AAMAA
Suriyan FM, Mirchi FM laam inge varaadhu.. Podhumaaa !!!!
Inimel FM radio nu varthai yen vaaila irunthu vantha rendu seevakataila rendu vangikaren...!!! podhumaa ????

Coming to the point, there was an interesting segment about outsourcing. In Washington DC, Carpenters Union was fighting against a large corporation. They organised picketting (Dharna) before their company head quarters. One of the journalist found that the protesting people were not real carpenters but HOMELESS PEOPLE. The carpenters had hired help so that they dont have to stand in cold and protest. After all the carpenters were being paid $24 per hour and the homeless were being paid 8 dollars per hour. Economics la puli thaan ponga !!!

So decided to explore such an innovative trend, little bit more Desi Style.

What if,
a. All the picketting and strikes are left to "Homeless People". There will be no loss of productivity and above all home-less make an extra buck too.
b. Obviously, at some point there will be a shortage of homeless people to do protests. What should we do ???

This is where, my (loosu) imagination started going really (loosu) wild.

AAMMA..AAMAA...AAMAA
Purushanuku yenna samaikanum nu yosikaama, ipdi thaan loosu maari yosipen. Athuku ipo yenna ?????

The best answer , would be to bring immigrants for this job. Both legal and illegal immigrants. My acquaintance with illegal immigrants is too little to comment . After all , I thought of them as Sergei Bubka's cousins. They were more pole vault sportsmen (jumping over the border and crossing to US), than IIT grads. So I decided to think more local, legal immigrants.

The first thing that came to my mind was , Desi-consulting companies. The desi-consultants will start hiring homeless-beggars from India. Will they use the same H1 quota ? HELL NO !!! We cannot/wont let that happen. So,the US government would then be forced to issue a new visa type called "HL" visas . I could not name it H visas , due to my emotional attachment, I shared with my H4.

Back home, all the engineering colleges will start a new course. B.Tech (homeless engineering). If you cannot goto B.E or B.Tech, you will have a masters alternative. It will be called M.H.A. You guessed it Master of homeless application.

Definitely there will be a mad rush of students to this new group because of the imminent placement oppurtunities, that too mostly outside of India. The self financing instituions will now advertise in Hindu "Our homeless engineering students are 100% placed". Yenna velai...pichai karan velai !!!!

Then there will be the special institutes like APTECH and SSI which will start new courses for homeless studies. These will mostly be occupied by people who want to change their career. Every evening in Annanagar , 2nd avenue and Vadapalani , you will see practical sessions which will bring "morning hard working people" to the streets with empty "Dunkin Donuts" coffee cups.

Campus interviews for such positions, shall be held roadside. Self-financing colleges (not the poor A.P.C.M.K.R.Z colleges of engg), the rich ones, will build a special guest house and parking lot to simulate better homeless conditions during campus interview. They will advertise and showoff their latest thiruvodu aka dunkin cups. Iam pretty sure that Infosys, Wipro and CTS will recruit more homeless than anyone. After all bench strength matters !!! Should I call it bench strength or should i say "unused thiruvodu" strength.

Think about the indian beggars, who are now in the streets. There will be a tremendous demand for them. They will be the most sought after ones. Experience kanna Experience !!! From then on, we will all pay some serious attention to the homeless in front of temples. Afterall, they shall remind us , one of our distant cousin, will make more money than us, by being in a top position in a HOMELESS RECRUITING FIRM.

I can say one thing for sure. Culture shall not change. Beggars definitely wont decide to dress up in "Allen-Solly" and "Peri-Alley" shirts. My prediction is that there will be a mad rush for "LEVIs" and "LEE" Jeans, after all, even now, their torn jeans make the richest of richest , a lot of homeless.

When you have to apply for a HL visa, you need to have some serious experience. As usual, the Desis will fake it very good. There shall be pictures of them begging in entrance of every temple. There will be professional photographers to do this job. Also , You need to show that you have negative bank balance and some serious homeless engineering skill set. You need to prove to the embassy that you have some fixed roots in India, by which I mean, a permanent fixed spot in front of a temple.

Jet airways and Air India will for sure increase the number of flights from CHENNAI, MUMBAI AND DELHI. "Homeless web special fares" will be available thro internet. The only difference is that, these flights will stop in Chennai-Colombo-Dhaka-Karachi-Kabul-Tehran-Baghdad-Ankara-Somalia-Ethiopia-Tanzania-Cameroon-Johanessburg-Rio De Janeiro-Buenos Aires-Mexico City and then finally to Newyork (not JFK, but Laguardia). The reason some of the countries,instead of cities are listed because they donot have airports and most likely we will be landing in an airstrip somewhere, to pickup wanna-be homeless. The flight journey will be only 57 hours and with 28 connections.

Once they arrive, the consultants will place these desi-homeless where the real US based homeless are needed at a relatively fraction of cost. The good thing is that our "HL" consultants donot have to be provided hotel & food allowance. They, in-order to be true to their profession, shall live on the streets.

This will be a total win-win for India. We can export all the homeless beggars to foreign countries and they will bring more international currency, sorry internation coins, into the indian market. Indian Foreign investment will multiply by atleast 100 times. Share market will go to 100000 points in 2 years.

As usual , Lou Dobbs on CNN will angrily carry a segment, "OVERTAKING BY THE INDIAN THIRUVODU". He will be very articulate and say "how the true homeless have been betrayed. They have been made to find real jobs and now they are not homeless. Shame on Corporate America, how dare you make the homeless, not homeless. "

The downside is dollar value will goto 27 rupees. So the brain drain will start reversing. All the IIT peoples, bandha paramasivam will start going back to India. Lufthansa , British Airways will declare bankruptcy. There will be no Raapichai in India. "Amma thaaye" will be replaced by "Pichai karanga vandhirukaar. Inaiku nallaa soru podanum. Veli naatula roti yum, bread thinnu paavam, naaku sethu poirukum. Nalla palaya saadham podanum"

In 2012 election campaign, Hillary Clinton will talk about adding homeless-income tax to fund the war on Iran. She will be talking about limiting the number of homeless immigrant per country, but wont do it. Every year the HL visa will be over the first couple days. There will talks of no caps of HL visa. But it wont happen. Hillary would face staunch opposition from racist rednecks about their jobs being taken over. But still Hillary will win !!!

In all this will be one experience which will make everyone cringe in this country and will make everyone happy back home. Here comes the punch, as i winding down this blog, Mr H comes back from office, singing an old song, "Anne Anne Sippai Anne, Namma ooru nalla ooru ipo romba ketu pochune". What a coincidence !!!

Ironically, I named the visa "HL". But in reality H visas and L Visas are the most popular ones. Afterall H and L visa holder are close to being homeless. I think of it like that because I remember my dead uncle K saying "uravai vitru kaasu vanga poraanga..." when we went to get his blessing before we came here.

How true !!! Home is where the heart is....!!! In that context every desi is homeless !!!

Peace

P.S:
Mr. H and me are not homeless because now we have green card ;-)

Margarita Maamiyum and Lemonade Drinkerum

2007-11-13T18:33:00.000-05:00

Ithula irukara character neeya iruntha naan porupalla...

Munurai :

I never knew my blogging would cause so much of cosmic collisions. Enga Oorukum , pakathu oorukum aruva vettu kadhai maari , nethu nadantha phonuraiaadalla neraya peru vailla vilundhenu enoda thambi phone panni sonnan. So got a bit worried. Adhanala Mr H kita keten. He said "kedakaraanga avanga, nee yeludhu apdinu sollitaar". Idhu Idhu..idhaithaan yethir paathen enpathu pola egiri kuthitu "odiyaanthu" (if u dont know what "odiyaanthu" means you should not be reading this in the first place) blogayanatha continue panren. "Valga... "Yen purushan Mr H".

Porulurai:

Coming to the nadu centre-karuthu, I always wanted to know what drinking had to do with being in a foreign country. My experience with alchohol has been next to nothing. In order to spice it up , lets assume my above statement is false.

Intha incident nadanthu oru 11 varsham irukum nu nenaikiren. My first experience with booze started. Infact it was a forgettable one. In our so called INDUSTRIAL VISIT (there is nothing industrial about it except if you want to call "thallu vandi varukadalai" a business), we girls , who were not the elite figures of our class , were given a beer mixed in coke bottles. Adha kudichu vaandhi kooda varla. If I had thrown up I would have thought that it to be a memorable experience. I think the dose of beer was relatively weak and by the way, elite girls got strong doses. My fellow class mate, the poruki pasanga must have had this wildest dream that elite girls were going to strip for them after their drunken escapades. In reality, all that happened was that they were made to carry buckets (which I thought was equivalent to the "sombu" that the elite girls gave after college) in nilagiri express to make their "sombu" girl friend's life easier by reducing the frequency of visits to the SMELLY Indian railway restrooms. I remember one of the guys, a fair boy was so remorseful (yeah yeah...) of this whole incident, he decided to sit with one of the elite girls, thro out the trip, much to her liking ( or may be his liking). Our gang of "sadhu" girls decided to skip I.Vs from then on , not becos of such behavior, but becos of lack of attention on us.

In 2007, when I was in India, I decided to visit my college. I happened to meet one of my distant cousin, in my college. He was elated to see me (he used take over text books from my brother, who had has inherited in a much pathetic state from my cousin Mr B) so I decided to drive him back home instead of his college bus. In a laid back conversation he threw the ultimate "BOMB". It seems a lot of his class girls are into drinking. I was so intrigued by this conversation that I ended up spending a couple of hours with him talking about this. He said the girls now even have brand liking. Lot of girls prefer Bacardi Rum and Smirnoff Vodka. He didnot know when they developed this habit but he says it didnot start in college. SO MUCH FOR MY SCHOOLING DAYS !!!! He went so far as saying one of the girl is a regular smoker. Ipo thaan enaku purinchathu why our kind fair much better in exam results. Romba charge yethitu vandhu exam eludhurangappaaa..... Naan kooda may be 85% vangi irupenno ennavo...Yaaru kandaa

So I decided to do my Ph.D in boozing habits of Desi Girls. I have a friend who lives in the same complex. She lives with a couple of desi girls (who remind me of my class elite figures) . So i casually asked her if she drinks. She said not really, may be casually. I was so relieved. I THOT I DIDNT MISS TOO MUCH. DESI GIRL PRIDE WAS SO INTACT.

But happiness was short lived. She told me in couple of weeks that they carry beer in their refrigerator. It so happens casual drinking means drinking a couple of days every week. Udambu yella pathikitu vanthichu...so Mr H kita poi romba polambinen. He , as usual, so what nu kettaar ? Enna manushanayaa neer !!!

Then I thought I was polling the wrong crowd. After all, these girls did their MS here, so I decided to change my test subjects. Who better than friends of Mr. H and their spouses ? After two weeks was the grand finale. We went to one of his colleagues home. It was a navarathiri party. I am a great fan of navarathiri, for I love GOLU. Mrs. P (friend's spouse) had setup this real nice golu , 5 small padis and lot of kutti kutti bommaigal. There were a few of her friends , who I know, not much though. They all sang , some typical BRAMINISH SONGS with their "NOT-SO M.S" voices , "WWF like thigh slapping" and "half closed eyes" (which for some reason made me think they were high on cocaine) . I was like the thalayati bommai except I was staring sometimes. It was a lot of fun. She prepared a grand feast for everyone. There came the 10000-wala of the feast, six pack "Bud Light". Almost all the high-cocaine women, jumped and grabbed a bud light. YENNA ULAGAMADAA SAAMY !!!! Apo thaan I felt "Naan Romba Backward". Therinju thaan yenna "Backward Class" nu vechirukaanga, Indian goverment. I would have been even happier if I had SC/ST. I was shocked. To my agony , Mr H made a statement, Mrs P yennaa style aaa, dhum adichaa paathiya ??? Now I was fuming. Kadhu , Mooku yella pakamum pugai. Sundal added for it too. Those ladies were the TRUE MARGARITA MAAMIs.

I said may be we should try and see what is in that. Yennoda kovatha purinja Mr. H, next day took me to Olive Garden. Joining us was my cousin Ms S. He told me "May be we should just taste something less strong. He never drinks too. So he had no Idea. So we asked the waitress, (her name was Sarah), to bring us mild saraku, a cocktail, which she suggested. Mr H was so afraid he would get a ticket for drunk driving. When he asked if the cocktail was under driving limits, she almost went ballistic with her laugh. She said "you have drink 100s of them". Maaname pochu. Finally I tried it. My cousin tried it. Mr H tried it. Nothing, NO SURU .
I did not like it one bit. My cousin kept saying "itha vida konjam strong aa try panni irukalaam". Now I have this slight doubt if my cousin is a tiger under sheep's clothing. Time will tell if she is!!!

I was so upset that Desi culture was being lost at frantic pace. Ennavo Po nu vituten. Last week Diwali dinner ku Mr H boss veetuku ponom. A nice tamilian who owns Mr H's company. He has been here for last 26 years. Romba nalla cook. He made some nice Shrimp-Biriyani,Chicken gravy and some Aval-Payasam. It was just a few people who were important to him, one of them was Mr P and Mrs P. My whole image of her was now that of a coke addict-carnatic-drunkard. I thought to myself, my god, another round of BUD LIGHT.

Here comes the twist, Mr. H boss, served everyone home made lemonade. I , for once, was thrilled. I made up my mind (much to Mr H's dislike) asked his boss, "Sir Neenga Drink Pannuveengala ???".

He says.......... "No Way. No one in our family drinks. My wife (who is a Dr ) inspite of her social engagements, doesnot drink. We vomitted once when we were made to taste wine in NAPA valley"

AHAAA.... Yenna answer. I had won my moral victory. Clean knock out.

Then I realised Desi pride is not kept intact by these so called "STYLISH MARGARITA MAAMIs" who have been here for just a few years but by the true indians who have been here for much longer and live life on their own terms & principles. I think Iam one of them and Iam proud of it.

VAALGA NEE YEMAAN VAIYATHU NATIL YELLAAAM !!!

Mudivurai:

So here is the score line:

LEMONADE "NON-KUDIKARI" MANDU - 1
MARGARITA "KUDIKARI" MAAMI - 0

Monkey Kulla and Global Warming

2007-11-12T18:24:00.000-05:00

Last 2 weeks hv been so cold. Its getting dark very quick. Back home, people have no idea how dreadfully cold it can get. I decided to try my experience with "Monkey Kulla" and couldnot tolerate it.

Why ? Mela Padeenga puriyum...

Once in a while, the relatives who talk,ask me all the time, how is the climate and is it cold ? I have to stand on my head to explain how cold it is to them.

First, "Enga Payanum America-la Irukaan" types
you have the people who have their sons in the US too , for a six month project. There is a silent ego war going between my parents and their parents on who is better. My parents always have the victorious feeling cos I have been here much longer than their son. But still R uncle will not accept it cos I dont work its my husband who works, so its a moral victory for him. Last week they were at my home and my mom thrust the phone to them (i hate her for doing this...)

here is how the audition goes....

Me: Mama..epdi irukeenga
Mama: Nalla iruken. husband yepdi irukaar.
Me: He is ok...ipo thaan office ponaar
Mama: B (who is the son) kita pesuniyaa
Me: Ille Mama. Pesi romba naal aachu. Itho inaki koopidanum , naliku koopidanum paakaren, maranthu poiren....
(honestly...i hv never spoken to him since he came and I dont even have his number)
Mama: Avanukum anga romba velai thaan... he didnt even call today.
(yenna velai , satha sarva kalamum orkut la scrap panra velaiyaa
also, he speaks daily yaa...Mama ku moral victory kuda illa..shame on you)
Me: I know..yenna moonu mani neram..time difference vera. So time othu pogarathu illa. How is J (their daughter) ?
Mama: Nalla thaan irukaa. Last week fever avaluku. Climate change athaan. Ange climate yepdi.
Me: Romba kulir. Winter arambichuruchu.
Mama: B kooda sonnaa. Avanikum romba kuliraam.

(This is my breaking point cos he lives in SanDiego. Sandiego is like Rajasthan when compared to Newyork)

Me: Sari Mama, avar lunchku vandhiruvaar. Naa appuram pesaren.
TOTOK...TORRRRRRR
...hanging up of the fone.
Couldnot tolerate his bloated ego.

Second , you have the so called "INDIA-IS COLD" club.
My Father could be the president of the club. December maasam pani (SNOW) peyum India la solravanga. HELLOOO....DO U KNOW WHAT SNOW IS ? SNOW IS THAT WHITE THING THAT FALLS FROM THE SKY NOT THE ONE THAT WANDERS LIKE A GHOST EARLY MORNING, IT IS CALLED MIST. These people wear thermals in India in December. They wear the monkey kulla in MAY. He wears the worst kind of nepali sweater, you guessed it BROWN in color and so unfriendly. This can be worn in Artic and I bet not a single stream of cold would pass thro that. I think his plan is to use the COLD as an excuse for thirutu DHUM. Yeah, after all my scoldings and H's scolding, he still makes Gold Flake Company profittable.

Third, "Global-Warming-Cousin"
He is the typical geek who idolises my husband but hates me. He wants to move here and talks lot about US. His wide range of topics are from VIOXX law suits to Mormons of UTAH. When u explain to him about the cold, his typical reaction was "THEN GLOBAL WARMING WAS A SCAM TO GET THE NOBEL PRIZE FOR AL-GORE ?????"

Raasaaa..theriyaama solliten....There is no kuliru here....unkita pesi...reliance card kaali panni yenoda vayitha yerichalla...kuliru pochu

Aamaa, global warning ku mukiya reason e nee thaan. unoda 9th standard la fail aagi bencha thechi soodaakiniye, athu thaan arctic pani uruga karanam.
podhumaa... aaalaa udu !!!!

Veliya solla mudeela, blog la solliten podhumaa ?????

Last, but not the least... "Erumai Maatu Tholargal" (its not thozhargal)
Their response would be, you should come to OOTY and Moonaar. Its below freezing. BLAH BLAH. I call them this way becos, they goto OOTY and MOONAR 100 million times so this cold wont matter to them. Afterall, I couldnot go with them because my appa would hate their families for being too liberal.

Any way, this cold which I have been used to for the last eight years is too much this year. I have succumbed to the cold and I wore sweat shirts, socks and monkey kulla. After 20 mins, i threw the monkey kulla becos it made my ears so hot that I could put a tawa to fry out of my ears. Above all the monkey kulla...reminded me of my dad who would not leave the house without one in December.

But intha kulla..avarodathu illa.

Peace....
