Matri-morons

I opened my Inbox today only see 120 mails staring at me. Most of them were the same old 'time pass' emails, some make you laugh and some make you wonder 'why did I open it?' Inbetween all those mails, I read a title 'Best of matrimonial...U'LL DIE OF LAUGHTER!!!'. This mail was new to me, so, I opened it. I had a hilarious time reading it. Infact this is first time after so many days (probably months) I'd tears in my eyes, laughing all the way, reading an email and don't even regret it! :D I thought it deserved a place on my blog. Read on.. These are Boys ads taken from shaadi.com These are actual ads on a matrimony site. Grammar and spell errors have no place in a profile description as everything is straight from the heart! Disclaimer : I am not responsible if you forget your basic grammar after reading this mail...

Start Earning

Image
Today, I came across a site, quite different than the rest. One thing I can assure you is, your visit to the site can help you and also lakhs of people across the globe. No, it's not the regular 'donate' thingy. It's different. Imagine a site where all you need to do is play (yes, play) and simultaneously you are helping and earning. There are lakhs of people affected by natural calamities say storm, tsunami, earthquake, floods and plague. Only a few of us can donate a huge amount of money. The rest of us, even though desperate to help, are helpless. So, here's a site for toddlers, teenagers, grownups....everyone! Free Rice - yes, that's the name. It is one of the most ingenious sites of 2007. It went online on October 7, 2007. All you have to do is to Play and earn Rice. They have got various categories- Art, Chemistry, English, Geography, Languages and Mathematics. You have to play and for each answer you get right, you donate 20 grains of rice. This is condu...

It's not JUST Children's Day

First and foremost, HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY! This is the 54th time we're celebrating children's day. Okay, now before you start calculating, let me tell you, this day was first celebrated in the year 1954. But it wasn't celebrated in November as we do now. October was the month for children then. Later in 1959, 20 November came to pronounced as the 'Universal Children's Day'. The idea of this day was assembled by late Shri V.K Krishna Menon. 20 November marks the anniversary of the day in 1959, when the Declaration of the Rights of the Child was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly. In India, Children's Day is celebrated on 14 November every year. The day was preponed to 14 November as this date marks the birth anniversary of India’s first Prime Minister – Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. The reason why his birth date is chosen is (as we all know) because of his love and passion towards children. Fun and frolic will always be there on this day but only f...

I Lose

It's the 13th. At 6:00 in the evening I visit him. Tired and in pain, he lays on the bed. Even a little movement causes him a striking pain. This time the target being his inner thighs. He says, ‘ It feels like someone’s hitting me with a hammer ’. I touch him- his feet. I press them gently so that he feels no pain. He shy's off and says, " It's ok, let it be ", but I'm recluent. A thought strikes my mind at that very moment, " Maybe this would be the last time " My thoughts win the Race. Period.
