Irksome Vacation

Some of those things that surprised(For Right/Wrong reasons) me over the last week.

1. First and formeost, how come Chinna kuyil Chitra is able to sing those really High Pitch notes(songs as well) by just lowering her eye-brows and a rhythmic tap of her left hand.I observed this when I saw her in Ilaiyaraja's Netru Indru and Naalai telecast.She is such a gifted and talented singer.

2. I dont understand why people from Perungudi/Velachery complain saying that the rain water entered their houses and is stagnating around the houses and streets.You get to watch this once in every half an hour in the news channels.Simply put,the houses that they are living in were once lakes/ponds, So if it rains their houses will be inundated. Applying 'Unnal mudiyum thambi' Janagraj's logic - Yaeriya suthi Kayiru Katta mudiyuma,"Kayira enga kattuva", Athanala Veetta sutthi Kayiru Katti Veeta konjam Medana edama paathu ezhuthunnu pona ellam seriyayidum.(Udane Veedu iruntha edam Galiyayudumenellam logicala yosikakoodathu).

3. Is Sachin Tendulkar past his prime.Lots of people ask this question to Geoff Boycott if Sachin doesn't live up to their expectations in a match. (some show in Start sports).I'm surprised because the questions are framed in such a way that they want a positive response for their question.Some one says he gets out to slower deliveries more easily,another one says he gets out too easily on big occasions and another one goes on to say the opposition has found out a defect in his armour. Phunny people.Ivangalukellam Cricketna ennanu theriyuma, Slowernna ennanu theriyuma,Big occasion coupled with pressurena ennanu theriyuma.

4. How often do you expect to see snow piled up in a ground outside the playing area and people play football in that pitch.Once in a while in Europe,but how often in Russia, I think almost always.There is this Russian sports channel and every time I tune into this I get to witness sports played on snow(Includes Football also).Thats the reason why clubs are happy for a draw with any Russian club at Russia in champions league.Intha Kulurle Veetu vasalla oru easy Chair pottu unkanthu sooda oru Teayum Baggiyum sapita evalavu sogama irukku.Aiyoo..Aiyoo.

5. During the India-Srilanka match telecast in DD sports the traditional circle animation that used to appear at the end of each over in Doordarshan is not appearing nowadays.Instead the Indian and Srilankan flag is displayed.So everyone gets to watch all six balls of a over now.

6. Lastly, I'm in Chennai but it still rains.Nallavanga Irunthadhan Mazhai peyyumnu sonnanga!!!

For the past six days I was at home mostly staying indoors and the result is the above listed trivial observations(Antha cinema dialoguessum athe TV'le paathathuthan).I wonder when was the last time I was home this long without any intention.Three and half years back, after my final year B.E exams.

I think u are mentioning the program in Vijay TV and not the one by Ilayaraja in JayaTV. I too watched it. Was amazed to see her recreate the magic of "Paadariyen padippariyen" after 20 years.

Next to Janaki, I think Chitra is the longest standing singer.

Sachin is more like Superstar. They want him to score hundred of every match. I am impressed with the effect his return has given the team.

On my way to office along Madipakkam, Pallikaranai, I see a lot of houses being flooded. The reason being they are built in the midtst of a lake. Engiayavadhu oru 10x10 land kedaikkakoodadhu. Udane adha vaLaichi pottu oru veedu kattittu appuram government kitta nivarana thogai kettu azha vendiyadhu.

Adede joyyunu circle varume adhu vara maattnegudha. Cha. Inime DD paakaradhula enna use
