We'll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes;
But the plural of ox became oxen not oxes.
One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice;
Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.
If the plural of man is always called men,
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen?
If I spoke of my foot and show you my feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
Why shouldn't the plural of booth be called beeth?
Then one may be that, and three would be those,
Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
And the plural of cat is cats, not cose.
We speak of a brother and also of brethren,
But though we say mother we never say methren.
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine, she, shis and shim.

Saw this some where and loved it, so sharing it with you folks
Khamosh palko se beh kar aansu aate hein,
Aap kya janey aap kitna yaad aate hein,
AAj bhi hum usi mod par khadey hein,
Jahan aapney kaha tha "Thahro hum abhi aate hein"

I turned 25 yesterday , I was worried on my 23rd birthday and bit concerned on my 24th and yesterday on my 25th i dint even feel like blogging :) . Is that a sign that I am improving.
Forget it , what ever be the direction in which my personality is growing or my life is headed, yesterday rocked. I was happy the whole day, no fights, no anger, no worries , a bit of lying but thats ok and mostly peace. Boy i loved it.
Thanks for the 100 odd who wished me(yes i was surprised too but i did receive that many wishes thanks to orkut for about 50 of them) For those who dint wish me you still have got the time :)
I got a Shirt, a t-shirt, a navratna ring and a book as my birthday gifts . Well that dint exactly meet the requirements I had set out so i am stilling waiting ;-)

From Cars Soundtrack this song plays when the credits rolls, really good one,
Very good song dedicated to all those who live far from home :)
(Thanks to Bharath for pointing me to the same)
When you find yourself in some far off place
and it causes you to rethink some things
You start to sense that slowly you're becoming someone else
And then you find yourself...
When you make new friends in a brand new town
and you start to think about settling down
The things that would have been lost on you
are now clear as a bell
And you find yourself,
yeah thats when you find yourself
Well you go through life
so sure of where you're headed
And you wind up lost
and its the best thing that could have happened
Cause sometimes when you lose your way, its really just as well
because you find yourself,
yeah that's when you find yourself.
When you meet the one, that you've been waiting for
and she's everything, that you want and more
You look at her and you finally start to live for someone else
And then you find yourself,
yeah that's when you find yourself
Well you go through life
so sure of where we're headed
And you wind up lost
and its the best thing that could have happened
Cause sometimes when you lose your way, its really just as well
Because you find yourself,
Yeah thats when you find yourself.

This day last year I left my previous employer. Around 11pm or perhaps later than that the office cab dropped me home for the last time. One year has elapsed and a lot has changed about me , my wants , my thoughts , my priorities but yet one thing never dies.
The thought that I perhaps resigned in a hurry. :) Often times i keep wondering the same thing , did i leave in a hurry , did i make a wrong decision. I have made it a policy to not regret my decisions but this one troubles me at times. Not that i regret having made it , but i am still confused about whether i made the right decision or not.
Hyderabad has added a lot to me. Given me experiences good, bad and ugly that i am sure have made me a better man. The one primary reason i left my X-Employer and came to Hyd ,to get away from all my comfort zones , to be vulnerable and learn from the experience ,I would say is accomplished. So is it time to go back hmm... again i am confused.
But the most imp thought haunting my mind right now is -- What Next ??

What is the magic that Rajini has, how does he captivate and hold the audience spell bound. Questions for which I will probably never find answers but what i dint find is that the crowd went absolutely berserk when the "Sivaji-The Boss" trailer started in the interval between "The Pirates of Carribean III" screening in Sathyam Cinemas in Chennai.
There was shouting, whistling, Thalaiver , Thalaiver chanting and when the trailer got over people started shouting "Once More". Not a single word in the trailer was audible it was all masked by the noise made by the audience. And best of all the shouting and whistling started on just seeing the CBFC Certificate neither had the trailer started nor had Rajini done something on the screen. But yes the experience was quite thrilling.
I heard from people that many come to the theatre for some dumb movies only to see the trailer.
Bottomline I believe the excitement that comes out of watching Rajini in action in a movie is increased many times by the embellishments provided by the audience and am totally convinced that Sivaji - The Boss is a must see.
