Housekeeping:-
1) Mother away to Hyderabad for a few days. My Son flew with her Sunday, as caretaker and back in 4 hr visit. His view of Hyderabad airport, #SHITHOLE as I keep saying!! Bangalore class act!  heheheheh!!
2) I am amazed at the crowd that turned up to see Manchester United Theater that was set up in Orion Mall. Class Team, Class Act!! Cantana, Beckham, Rooney, Van Perse etc etc!! No wonder !!! Also the richest club in world. I asked my son to identify all players in poster as I lost interest in the last half dozen years on sports as a whole. 

It was interesting to hear David Cameron talking about the next major issue /concern for the world! FRAGILITY!! too many things are going wrong in too many places (50% countries) !! This can en mass in to a great disaster!! (Conflict, corruption, Illegitimate govt, collapse of systems etc)
We can’t tackle global poverty or, indeed, improve our own security at home, unless we address the challenges caused by state fragility. The Commission aims to generate innovative ideas to help tackle state fragility and state failure, and I am delighted to be working with such a talented team of people.” – David Cameron, Chair

Following "me too" movement in which women rised Ruckus!! (Rightly or wrongly, I still feel most  women take the moral high standing only, when things do not go their way or want to take revenge on men) and justify everything they do in the name of Ambition! I strongly feel keeping a distance from women in general, for me 99% times it is "போங்கடி வெண்ணை,2 அடி  பின்னலா போய் " is the good way to go. (Yes, few trusted women rule 1% of everything causes 99% good or bad!!). So No surprise to hear state of in Nigeria, North Carolina and India in BBC Documentary!! I had written before, the #METOO movement has set back a female US President by good 30 years!!American Men will come out to vote with vengeance to keep women out of office!! 

This is why, I love western press! Once they go for kill they leave even no bone in decimation? !! Nixon etc etc!!!  Of course their politician of west are of high class dignity! here nangaa bugger(ess) hmmm!! our impotent press bastards hand in glove with judiciary, executive , legislature all rotten!! See Madras high court judgement on MLA disqualification! No hope!!

Good Image on Anxiety! People worry needlessly on everything!! If u control, why worry? If you can't control? Why worry too??? hmmm!!

BJP party with no clay between ears or legs!! heheheh

Finally, as usual, Fraud மோ(ச)டி climbing 100% electrification, this is truth!! hahaha!!

1) Until 1950 , 0.5% of villages were electrified.
Between 1950-2014 ,. 97% villages were electrified.

2014 - 2018 remaining 3% villages were electrified.

Now let us thank Modiji for electrifying all the 100% villages which congress did nothing 

Until next time, take it easy, take care, god bless

1)I quit the Whats app group of my school last night!! It was going nowhere,with people having an adverse opinion on anything I post / forwarded and tolerance of my classmates is at rock bottom. It is all about digesting what you don't agree! Sadly they seem to lack it!! I care a hoot, U reach out, I extend! if you don't! I go my way,! I always say " I can be an Island" who cares?? I never believed social media is way to reach out? I know of tens of instances guy with 1000s of followers /like had 0 people turning up on his funeral.

2) It was a trip to Dahej, this week, (2nd GUJ trip in 2 weeks after 11 months, like Italian bus  that comes in pair!!) It was a very short trip in an exhausting heat conditions. It gave me a chance to taste the nylon Khaman from favourite shop "Thakkurs". It was great sign of Gujarat hospitality as the business associate I met was previously unmet person and I just expressed my love for Khaman few hours before. He organised from the shop good 5 miles away....
 

Awesome 

 Tuli Banejee who is in a common whatsapp grup I am around shared this Facebook post / page. I totally agree with this picture.The country that is on rampage on Rape of female Child and Sodomy of male child must hang its head in shame. National map and pride and other things come later!! I am sure Hindu goons would proclaim that this is a provocative act by some Muslim guys defaming India!! Do you think Hindus like me lack so much common sense that we just blindly forward what we see/receive without applying logic/common sense. The very hallmark is to apply common sense and take a decision. hmmm! இது எல்லாம் அந்த கேன பயலுவலுக்கு எங்க புரிய போகுது? 

Who would have thought that even three months back that North South Korea leaders would sit across table and discuss on peace and Kim and Moon would travel across symbolic border in to other territory. Things happened so fast that it took while to comprehend. While much of it could be symbolic and world need to treat Kim's gesture with little more caution and wait/watch. Still, 27th April would go in history as a red letter day! I guess the new generation of leaders like Kim (30s) MBS (32) Emmanuel Macron (40) bring different perspective to thinking and take the world forward. I wish India finds some new leader in their 20s or 30s who can take the mantle and fight head on! Time to old கேன பயலுவ திருடன்ஸ் like Modi, BJP Pigs or Rahul etc. Country's system are in mess with Legislature, Executive, Press and judiciary rotten beyond redemption at this stage! A clean up would require good 10-15 years. I doubt but?? In a sense, we Crooked Indians deserve this.

It was glad, I stumbled on Colet Selwyn,Tamil Boy setting English music on fire in UK! What a voice and give a listen! Super Deep Bass voice!! He is a Biomedical Engineering Student.... Amazing talent! 

After 7 years, GMAIL has rediscovered itself, I like the new look, tools that have been added. This should really help improve productivity. 1.4 Billion people who use every day would benefit.

With me around in town for good 10 days, I plan to complete books by James Comey and David Baldacci. Baldacci's Amos Decker is cool charecter with 0 memory loss!! Comey also explain how losing his child made him a better leader!! Time flies, 9th May is around the corner the day Comey was fired!

Also is about looking to Manchester United Theatre and Sheraton discount on food possibly explored.

Take it easy, take care, god bless

Road to Unfreedom,Barbara Bush,BroCode,35 years!!!

#316
Housekeeping:-
1) I was away on Business travel to Mehsana, GUJ this week. I was not aware that Sidhpur the place I visited, is where it is customary for son's to carryout rituals for the Departed Mother's soul. Ghaya is the one for Father. I should work the dad's some time later this year. Great trip to Gujarat after 10 months. Awesome food as usual. 

2) My visit to #HOSUR for 2 days, Saturday, took me to an awesome temple 20 Kms away, peaceful setting with greenery and flowing river!!  (Dakshina Tirupathy)  

I am reading Road to Unfreedom by Timothy Snyder, an awesome book on Thug Putin's manipulation of Russian system and deception he brings in the name of "Eurasia -expansion of Russian federation". Putin,like MODI works only for TV entertainment for people, never mind the Fridge is empty and people are starving and living in a low self esteem. Modi, Putin wants people to live in the past legacy without caring for future. Modi is also dreaming of Akhanda Bharat.

This week saw the passing away of the Second First lady,who was wife to a president and also a mother to another #POTUS! Barbara Bush, 92, joins Abigail Adams in the rarest of rare list. Exactly 200 years after Abagail died in 1818. I recollect "Dubiya" covering in his book, how Barbara felt the engagement ring "41" presented was not a Sapphire but a blue stone!! hahah!!! Married for 73 years, well live life!

hahahhahhhahahah!! Brocode to rescue!! Man I tell you these men!!! I cant even Imagine or even in dream, Lalitha asking me where the heck I had been the night before??? போடி வெண்ணை would have been my answer!! 

Can't believe 35 years (This month) has flown in a flash! what an album!!! Masterly songs!!! I think I must have listened 1000s of times!! No wonder rated 13th best at 100 best all time favourite albums of the music world! Every breath you take would by itself be in top 10 all time single favourites.
Wrapped around your Finger

Every Breath you take!!!

Housekeeping:-
1) Happy  விளம்பி புத்தாண்டு வாழ்த்துக்கள் (The Tamil new year is Vilambi) Lalitha in her elements to arrange for morning worship. This year low key affair. 

2) I quickly checked the walking time/month! Average 75 Hrs over last 15 months!! That is 21/2 hrs a day. Not bad. I should push to 90 or so !! I guess possible in II Half when heat is less to sap you.

I started listening to podcasts in 2006 when I procured my 80 Gb Ipod and synced the podcast to ITUNES. Podcasting has come a long way over the last 12 years. ( I must have listened to good 25,000 episodes at 10 a day!) It was heartening to read that Podcast is now on road show with sold out performance. Amazing way to go!!  Continuing on podcasts, I stumbled up on "Coaching for leaders" by Dave Stachowiak. Also I look forward to commencement of Death in Ice valley BBC podcast of 47 year murder mystery! 

Child born after 4 years of death of parents, in CHINA!! Amazing story!! I wonder how far science/technology would go? 

This week also marks 14 years of  400 for Brain Lara, the only man to recover a World record in Cricket!! I savour the 375 in Antigua than 400!!! 

Lara 375 Antigua 

I am reading "MULTIPLIERS" an awesome book by Liz Wiseman, She describes characteristics of leaders who multiply abilities in their team vs Diminishers! Awesome book more so I could relate to 90% of my leaders over 27 years of my corporate life who were all multipliers. I owe my success to them.

I leave you with a secret, why Lalitha and I never went to movies not one in 28 years, this is how I would have told her to be with me in movie theatre!! heheheheh

On a sombre note, my heart goes out to the 8 year old girl and 16 yr teen! Where is this country heading? Shame on any one defends this in the name of party, religion! "FUCK YOU"

Take care, god bless, take it easy.

1) Today (9th April) is Dad's 9th month ritual. Time flies I tell you! வருஷாப்திகம் at Karaikudi from 4-7th August.

 2) Children surprised me yesterday with a new Kindle Gift. I was reading books though phone (Google Play books app) as Iphone is out of sync with 8 year old device. Looking forward to happy reading, ofcourse I was more than comfortable with phone and finished good 20 books or so.

Awesome video of how Pakistan women speaker of National Assembly, Fahmida Mirza roasting a guy and ejecting out a MP!! Not like our stupid ones "what is this & Beit Jaayeeyae" I keep saying based on first hand experience, things are better than they appear in Pakistan!! hahahha!!!

Hhahahah !Smart phones have ruined lives, some way to get out of it I guess!! Also interesting WSJ thoughts on how to get over smart phone addiction and live like human being before 90s!! 

I will leave with some MODI Memes!! ehheh!!!

2) After 12 years, able to find some decent TAMIL Podcast to listen! May be even a good Indian one to say! Shows lack of class, depth in Indian Podcast scene!! 

Here is a class video on Why MODI APP is dangerous and untrustworthy as him! Not that I care for any app with Political connection. Every since Trump got elected, I was always feeling SM has its crooks had worked on fake news, data privacy breach, and Cambridge Analytica stench makes you move miles away from political parties!! 

The Indian right wing is far worse than Commies off late full misinformation, lies. Their propaganda to false fake information has reached pinnacle. Sad part is Jaalras of Modi,even in IIMs,Dr Swamy (friends who attended his speech at Mangalore in 2013,now calls him Senile,as are many people in my personal circle, off late feel he is beyond tolerance; few others,Gurumurthy another one, not that I had +ve opinion on him at any time, because of his stupid anti MNC stance- he doesn't know anything worth trusting Indian,is only INDIAN WIFE, rest all fucking stupid and untrustworthy- A life derailed) They have always been hurling abuse at JNU as Commee, Naxal Hotbed and produces nothing worthwhile. Here u see, this is rating of Indian universities,in Tughlaq MODI  government so truth cant be hidden, things cant be bad as this thugs portray!! hahahahhah!

This will please Lalitha, She from Trichy. I loathe that city, only Mosquitos and Sewage!! hahahah! (கொன்டேபுடவா_)

I came across this interesting FACEBOOK Post, I reproduce below! Look at PS, This is exactly, Jack Reacher uses in Midnight lane to catch bus!! hahah! People are the same wherever you go.

Yesterday I also met Gregory Cutinoh on the way back from Lonavala. He was driving a brand new Innova Crysta. He brought us into the city in under 1 hour.Gregory works for a leading car hiring company in India. Can't reveal the name, but suffice to say it is a premium hiring service and top bosses travel in these cars.

He was returning empty after making a drop in Pune and decided to pick up some free-radicals from Lonavala.

At Lonavala, there wasn't a bus available to travel back to Bombay in the evening. Most buses give the station a skip it seems.Gregory is from Goa. He had a bad drinking habit that he has quit.

We got talking. He was cursing the corrupt system and was saying that if corruption stops in police, which he says is responsible for all corruption, then the country can improve.

Therefore I explained to him about how our political system is the real fountainhead of corruption and how the election system is the main contributor. I gave him a short tour of how our electoral system works and also educated him to know that MLA's and MP's can't really do any work for his constituency. I also asked him to spread this knowledge.

So he said, but who will listen to me? I told him, don't bother, just do your bit, spread the knowledge and if people are able to connect with the truth then it will be good for the country.Then I told him how I speak with every person I see chewing tobacco and how I tell them about the horrors of cancer. He was able to connect to this as one his friend who was very well built was consumed by chewing tobacco, reduced to a skeleton and died in young age.

He said, fortunately he never got into that habit and he quit drinking on 15th August some years back as his mother passed away on 15th August which was both his mothers and his birthday!

He made a 1000/- rupee instead of coming back empty and provided us with a comfortable ride where none was available.

Did he commit a crime by doing so? If Government comes to know about such trips, it will want a cut from them. Would that be a right thing to do?

What would Gregory do with the 1000/- that he made extra?

He is not going to buy some shares of a company with that money (although he might) but he is going to spend that money in the economy and give a boost of 1000/- to the GDP.

That is why we need money with savers and spenders at the bottom of the pyramid. The people at top are already enjoying a good life.

PS: The local agent who brought 5 riders together also made 500 and must have paid 100 to the guy who was roaming the bus stand asking people to hop into the waiting car. So everyone made something and it was a win-win for everyone.

"In "The Midnight Line," Reacher has hopped a bus, finds himself in Wisconsin — "the sad side of a small town" — goes into a pawn shop and purchases a small woman’s ring that intrigues him. It has her initials on it and an inscription implies she was a West Point cadet, as was he, many years prior.

Who is she? Why did she pawn the ring? Might she be in trouble? Alarm bells go off in his head, and so, Reacher’s latest great adventure has begun. The trail leads to South Dakota and deep into the Wyoming woods.

I have posted earlier blog posts in 2017 about how MBS is going great guns in Saudi Arabia on reforms. 18th April "Black Panther is getting released in Saudi Arabia. MBS has plans to spend 60 Bn$ over 10 years for entertainment including a Bn$ Opera House in Riyadh! Saudi are changing and changing fast. He reminds me a lot like Sanjay Gandhi-(பிஜேபி கேன பயலுவ, சமாதி கட்டி இருப்பான் ஹஹஹஹஹஹஹ்) My way or highway! Interesting article on New Yorker (A long one) this week. 

I leave you with articles which shows India stagnant, and nothing happening! Expected so!!!

Indian companies have scrapped projects worth $117 billion in just one year

Alagappa Chettiar!! WHAT A MAN !!!!!

#312
Today, 6th April 2018, marks the 109th Birth Anniversary of Dr Algappa Chettiar. Incidentally, yesterday, 5th April was his 61st Death Anniversary. For a man who just lived 48 years, his contribution to Indian Education, Political contribution, Science & Technology, Physical Education is immense.

Having done my schooling of 7 years in the Alagappa institution, (Also joined Alagappa Arts College for a month before moving to Engineering in 1980) I must say I was immensely lucky to reap benefits of his benevolence. Schools, Colleges were just minutes away by walk and so it was cultural shock to find when I landed in Gujarat to find kids go miles for schools.

His immense contribution to Science was the creation of CECRI by giving away 300 acres of land and 30 lacs Rupees to Pandit Nehru and Shanti Swaroop Bhatnagar. Dad worked from 1962-2004.( Scientist + Scientist Emeratus as Head of Corrosion Division) 

I am deeply thankful to him and Chettiar community as a whole for their contribution which I enjoyed for all my schooling and college at practically free, which is beyond my repayment. That is why I never criticise P Chidambaram, a chettiar and grand son of Annamalai Chettiar the Doyen. I consider, he is one politician licensed to loot the country, where as all other "PUTA MADRE" politicians, all fuckers, have plundered the nation without giving away a cent before! For me PC and Kaarti are rightfully collecting back what their generous ancestors gave away in crores with interest! (Like Kannadasan wrote) ,இரவல் தந்தவன் கேட்கின்றான் ; அதை
இல்லை என்றால் அவன் விடுவானா!!! hahahahh!!!
