Paper chase

Awesome piece of hilarious writing! It is easy to write musings, easier to write a research thesis. But to carry a sense of satire, and handle something as sensitive as " blow dryer" in the place of "toilet rolls" requires quite some Jpatma skills! This is the first post of yours, that I am reading, and I should say - You have got one of those "wow, i can see this happen" feel to almost all your words! The best with the miniskirt and tube top .

True, the sense of writing a letter is so advantegous. You can send a lip stick coated kiss in it, now howzzt in emails? This thread is soon getting the ** status, haha!

Chitvish, I could almost see myself hum to that
போனதே பறி போனதே
Just like today's tamil songs!

Cheers

Should we start getting ready for a paperless world? Is it time to start bidding goodbye to the filing cabinets of today? The paperless world is coming. The evidence is easily visible in the way in which offices are quickly becoming paperless. Bank statements, for instance, are available over the Internet. E-statements are much in vogue today. Log into a computer far, far away, and you will still be able to access an old e-statement. This is one of the benefits of a paperless world. It is far easier to hunt for info.
I imagine you as dancing in the rain like Revathi and singing" Ooh!paper vandhado, Ennai vittu odiponadho, Thedi thedi pidippen , odi odi padippen" how is it !!
I cannot control my laughter on reading the lines about Shivaji!!!
later period, he over acted in all the movies particularly in "thillana Mohanambal and other movies.
Chitra , your " Kavithai" made me to sing and dance. so nice.
Enjoyed your post jeya!!!
with love

Archana dear,
Nice to see a new reader for my post. We had good time abt this blow dryer in our office and laughed and laughed abt it and with many permutation and combinations.

There is nothing wow abt my post, it is just that i like to laugh and i concot situations and imagine it funny.
Chithra and Cheeniya are too kind to me, i suppose they too bit mad -off mind like me.

Now that the recipe queen has become Kavithayini Chitvi, I have found a new Avatar for her and I am happy to unveil it below!


Avvaiyar has not written any song in the tune of 'Kickku erude'! So what? The physical resemblance is too strong and so is the 'charming smile'!

Dear Jay,
Last evening I was talking to Ms C Sir on the mobile. She mentioned that He had gone to a party in the club and would be back home late at night. That is not the point. Knowing Him, she was very anxious that He would 'drown' himself there in the bar with friends chamchafying Him for His humorous talk ( they are 'free for all' if the drinks go in - type!).
What she said ,struck me as 'kikku erude' type. She was very anxious that He should drive back home safely ( after the rains, the roads are very bad).
Thus was how the phrase 'kikku erude' came to my mind. The prompt post from Him proves it all!!
Without realising, (perhaps the hang-over is still there), rather inadvertently, He has put me on par with the legendary Poetess Avvaiyar!!

Ennaip pugaznthathu enna?

Avatar koduthathu enna??

Enna, ena, enna??

I gracefully accept my new pedestal, sharing with the Great Lady, with all humility!

Love,
Chithvi.

Jay, did you ask for all these when you wrote on paper chase??

Dear Kikku Kavidayini
With that kind of imagination running riot, only 'kikku' poems will come out your keyboard! But I must say it was a good guess. Looks like you have developed 'gnanakkann' like Avvaiyyar to be able to visualise what happens to others particularly when they get drunk.

When I read those lines where you had started shouting 'enna enna enna', I thought you were calling Vish for support because that's how superannuated couples call each other (including me!) Then I realised that you were referring to KB Sundarambal's throaty song. Like all others, you too perhaps remember 'KBS' when a mention is made of Avvaiyar. Incidentally, did Avvaiyar sing that song originally? This is my first attempt at 'Ask Chitvish'!
Sri

Hello Mr kikku Erinavare,
I now realise, it was not just a good guess, but the RIGHT GUESS as well.
When I walk on the sands of Marina, in the evenings, the path is
'as though strewn, with kikku cases'. Same case like yours.
You men, do it in a 'sophisticated' way in high society clubs with high quality drinks.
'kikku' is (perhaps) the same for Tasmac and cosmopolitan or gymkhana-club cases!!

No, Sir, the words were put in KBS's mouth,though not Avvaiyar's!!

OK, 'aenna' is your house 'lingo, mine is "saar' & if provoked 'saare'.

With great regards,
Chitvi.

I call this battle of posts.
I can visualize cheeniya veeran taking the bow from his quiver and aiming towards chithra rani , squinting one eye to zero in the target.
Our brave Chithra rani shielding it so easily like piece of cake and sends another arrow straight to our veeran sir.The arrow is laced with kikku.

Enna varthegalo entha cheeniyavin postinela
solli solli mudiyavelai, sonna kathai sirupa eruke

Thanks for the battle of wits.
Jaya

Dear Jaya,
Interesting write-up. Congrats!
Enjoyed it.
(Sorry Sivaji - Don't get annoyed with me. Be rest assured, I did enjoy every one of your 300 & odd movies and would not mind seeing them again - be it Pudhiya Paravai or Thillana Mohanambal or Mridanga Chakravorty........ . )
As regards paperless toilets, the space shuttles are already equipped vacuum cleaners. This not only saves paper but also a good quantity of water usage.
Let's suppose 'X' proposes to cleanse himself fore and aft, so to speak. First he would seat himself firmly on the commode. Various ingenious restraining devices are provided so he doesn't drift off at an untoward moment. In front of is a urinal--essentially a funnel with a hose.The commode seat is cushioned so as to make a good seal with the bottom, thereby ensuring good suction and preventing the escape of undesirable substances. Then he would turn on a fan inside the commode and do the business. The fan pulls the nasties into a sort of mesh bag that traps solids but allows liquids to pass through.
You would agree that no paper or water could clean as well as vaccum suction. (NB : 'X' need not necessarily be a male).
Here's how astronaut Woody Spring described the experience in an interview with the Journal of the Water Pollution Control Federation:
"..... we practiced "potty training," which is unlike any seat one is accustomed to. It involves placing yourself over a special 4-inch hole seat, and sitting just right in order to maintain a vacuum seal. Naturally, this seat must accommodate people of all different sizes. To help practice placing ourselves correctly we used a closed circuit TV with a bull's-eye target from which we practiced; it wasn't easy."

Yuk or otherwise, I thought atleast people could be educated about this option as well.
Cheers!

Dear Jaya,
It is long since I had read such a wonderful, such a humorous piece. It is long since I had such a wonderful laugh, thanks to you.

Oh my God! Your humour works in various dimensions. From Shivaji to your DH from the paperless computer to eradicating toilet-paper.. (well having used toilet paper for 2 months when I was in the US I could not stop laughing thinking about Americans going without toilet paper.)

Humor is the toughest of genre. I have tried my hands in all except humour. Just have a glance at IL. Out of some 62000 ILites there are about only 3 who can write clean, great humour. The inimitable Cheeniya Sir, you and Kamalji. All the rest of us ordinary mortals have to confine ourselves to serious stuff.

That's great talent Jaya. I am really proud to have known you.
love,
sridhar
