Me, my scribbles and my ego
Imagine a situation where your boss gave you a day off. To spend time he gave you one boooring book (say Ayn rand ) and a stupid movie ( say some karan johar). Which one would you chose ?
That was just a question, for answers just look at these maps.
Books published, including school textbooks. and boy !!! where is Africa ?
I recall some of my super seniors took seven to eight years to finish their engineering. During exams some of them used to come to me (also) for tuitions on several engineering theories.
Next year they just drop by and tell “No yaar, I don’t clear it this time. BTW… Are you there in college next year? I need the same tuition again”. They some time accumulate 10 to 15 un-cleared subjects in their hand. Here is one of such guys. He goes into records for clearing 29 subjects in one shot.
In our terms we call it “morning show - matinee show” Just observe the timings he has written the papers. Hats off Man.
This is to inform you that our alumni, ___ has appeared 29 engineering theory subjects’ examinations conducted by Karnatak University in our college; the detailed report of the examination schedule is mentioned below. Its his sincere effort to register his name into Limca book of record for passing 29 engineering theory subjects during the examinations held in Jan/Feb 2003,
There is one more chain mail; it’s about the plastic bottles we use. There is a number written on the bottom of every plastic bottle, which varies from one to seven. Hoax Chain Mail claims that the number indicates how many times that particular plastic is recycled in reverse order. So anything above 5 is good.
It’s actually nothing to do with the number of recycling of the bottles. It’s just the type of plastic which is used for that particular bottle. 5 is polypropylene and 1 is PET that is polyethlyene terephthalate. The numbers below is useful while sorting the collected bottles while recycling. In other words it is plastic identification number.
1 - PET, polyethlyene terephthalate
2 - HDPE, high-density polyethylene
3 - PVC, polyvinyl chloride
4 - LDPE, low-density polyethylene
5 - PP, polypropylene
6 - PS/PS-E, polystyrene / expanded polystyrene
7 - OTHER, resins or multi-materials
Google yourself if you are not satisfied. But don’t panic if you receive the same chain mail tomorrow.
Here is copy paste of that mail

Blank noise project is one interesting thing happening around metros in India. It started in Bangalore (as I know) against all leaching, touching, pinching, stalking and “ನೊಡ್ಲಾ ಮಗಾ…@^#%@$! ” (FAQ). I did not see anyway to help these heroes, thought I ll give them some more publicity.
Basically it’s a message to women who have experienced this one or the other way.
Road 1. Road to temple. This road leads to the temple of worship , the ladies hostel. 
Road 2. Road to Ecstasy , Road Leading to a shop which leads to a shop which supplied cigerettes the entire customer base, even during “strict” non-smoking days.
3. Way of freedom : Track to get out of the college , yes finish your digree and go home.
I‘ve been watching lot of south park lately. I started to like them. Fourth grade kids experiencing life in weird way (always). They have opinions on everyone bush, Osama, Saddam, Budda, Jeasus… You guess the rest. They are like some social commentary blogs
The main character of the show is Eric Cartman. To explain his character briefly (wikipedia) :
Catalyst for the plot, Cartman is portrayed as an abusive, anti-Semitic, violent, campy, aggressive, greedy, corrupt, bigoted, self-centered, rude, racist, wildly insecure and extremely manipulative young man who is possible to have antisocial personality disorder.
These two videos are of a normal day of south park fourth grade math class. Mr. Garrison is teaching arithmetic and kids just came learning some F words.
Mr. Garrison: OK children; let’s start the day with the few new math problems
(Writes on the board)
Mr. Garrison: What is five times two?
(Silence)
Mr. Garrison: Come on children don’t be shy, just give it your best shot
(One hand rises)
Mr. Garrison: yes Clive ….
Clive : …..twelve?
Mr. Garrison: OK.., now let’s try to get an answer from someone who is not a complete retard
ನಮಸ್ಕಾರ,
ತುಂಬಾ ದಿನ ಆಯ್ತು, ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಬರೆದು (ಟೈಪಿಸಿ). ಒಂದು ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆ. ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಅಧಿಕ ಪ್ರಸಂಗದ್ದು, ಎನ್ಮಾಡ್ಲಿ blog ಹೆಸರೇ “ನಾನು, ನನ್ ಗೀಚಾಟ ಮತ್ತು ನನ್ನ ಅಧಿಕ ಪ್ರಸಂಗ”. ಹೆ ಹೆ ..
ಕನ್ನದ ಸ್ವರಮಾಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ “ಕ್ಷ” “ತ್ರ” ಮತ್ತು “ಜ್ಞ” ಯಾಕಿದೆ ?
ಇದೊಂದು ಹತ್ತು ಹದ್ನೆಂಟು ವರ್ಶದ ಹಿಂದೆ ಬಾಲಾವಡಿ , ಅಂಗನವಾಡಿ ಅಕ್ಷರಮಾಲೆಯ chart ನೋಡಿದಾಗ ತಲೇಲಿ ಬಂತು. ಆಗ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಸಂಸ್ಕೃತ ಕಲ್ತಿದ್ದೆ… ರಾಮ: ರಾಮೇ ರಾಮೈ .. ಗೊತ್ತಲ್ಲ ಹೈ ಸ್ಕೂಲ್ ಪಾಟಗಳು.
ದೇವನಾಗರಿ ಲಿಪಿಯಲ್ಲಿ, “ಕ್ಷ” “ತ್ರ” ಮತ್ತು “ಜ್ಞ” ಗಳಿಗೆ ಬೇರೆ ಬೇರೆ ಚಿಹ್ನೆಗಳಿವೆ . So.. ಅದರ ಅಕ್ಷರಮಾಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ specific ಆಗಿ ಬರೆಯದಿದ್ರೆ ಒದುಗರು confuse ಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ತಾರೆ ಅಂತ ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಬರೆದಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಆದ್ರೆ ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ “ಕ್ಷ” “ತ್ರ” ಮತ್ತು “ಜ್ಞ” ಒನ್ದೇ ತರ ಬರೆಯುವುದು ತಾನೇ. “ಕ್ಷ” - ಯಕ್ಷ, ತ್ರ - ನಕ್ಷತ್ರ , ಙ್ - ಯಜ್ಞ ಅಂತ
ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಓ. ಕೆ. … “ಕ್ಷ” “ತ್ರ” ಮತ್ತು “ಜ್ನ” ಯಾಕೆ ?
ಸಂಪದದಲ್ಲೂ ಇದನ್ನೇ ಪೊಸ್ಟ್ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದೆ, ನೂರು ಜನ ಓದಿದ್ರು ಯಾರೂ ಉತ್ತರ ಮಾತ್ರ ಕೊಟ್ಟಿಲ್ಲ. ಕನ್ನಡ ಅಕ್ಷರ ಮಾಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಈ ಮೂರು ಅಕ್ಷರಗಳನ್ನು ತೆಗೆದು ಹಕಿದ್ದರೇನು ?
privious posts : ಹುಚ್ಚು ಮನಸ್ಸಿನ ಹತ್ತು confusion..!! , ನನ್ನ ಓದುವ ಹುಚ್ಚು, ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರೇ ನಮಸ್ಕಾರ !!
