APRIL

APRIL FOOL GO TO SCHOOL,
TELL YOUR TEACHER, THAT YOU'RE A BIG FAT FOOL.

There was no political correctness in the 60's. The term "big-fat" never existed then. A spade was called a spade! Those who had front teeth angled outwards (excessive overbite) were called "Coxy"! Timid guys were called "Pusky"! Stingy guys were called "Marwadi Kanjuse!(My apologies to the Marwadi community). Girlish guys were called Pottais!(My apologies to the girls). My elder brother who was rather plump, was called "Fatty Bumbalatti"! Those who carried tales to teachers were called "sneakers"! Our chairman Mr. Enwright was called "Murclick"!Perhaps some of you can add some more derogatory terms that were in use.

MARCH 2010

Feb 2006 was when we started. Feb 2010 saw the least number of comments. Time takes its toll on everything. By commenting now and then, we, at least know that the others are keeping in fine fettle, so a purpose is being served. Shiva must the preoccupied elsewhere because otherwise he is very prompt in updating the month. March is a cruel month in India because of the rising temperature, water shortage, and year ending financial operations.

Wishing You all a very Happy and prosperous new Year and a Great 2010

What can be said in New Year rhymes, That's not been said a thousand times?The new years come, the old years go, We know we dream, we dream we know.We rise up laughing with the light, We lie down weeping with the night.We hug the world until it stings, We curse it then and sigh for wings.We live, we love, we woo, we wed, We wreathe our prides, we sheet our dead.We laugh, we weep, we hope, we fear, And that's the burden of a year.
...Ella Wheeler Wilcox

NOVEMBER

there's blogger young and blogger old
in tropical climes and canada cold
some so regular as if on cue
we've got bloggers in our fighting force
in banking law and at the bourse
church affairs and education too
but where the hell is blogger new

all our blogger girls and blogger boys
(even serial george and ms christine poise)
have reached our proverbial waterloo
finding needle-in-the-haystack blogger new

nothing seems to be far more greater
than the years spent in the alma mater
we bloggers will do what bloggers do
with or without the elusive new
(sorry for the substitution sunu)

October 2009 and the Blog is getting lively

Alumini Bloggers our friends in the Western and Southern Hemisphere are about to set their clocks behind by an hour, here goes our clocking for the next innings...Winter is just going to show her cold fingers around, skies and sledges and the snow clearing equipment get waxed and oiled, we wait for hidden stories and Yarns of yester years . The month begins with rain and Drizzle in South India, Tsunami in Indonesia...

March! March! March! Bloggers hurry
Forth at the wild bugle sound,
Blossoms and birds in a flurry,
Fluttering all over the ground.
Shake out your flags, teak and silveroak !
Shake out your red tassels, larch!
Grass blades, up from your earth -choke.
Hear the call, Bloggers . . its March."
