Three golden rules for selecting a book:

Never read a book which is not a year old.

Never read any but the famous books.

Never read any but what you like.

Reading makes a full man;

conference a ready man;

and writing an exact man. :laser:


Eating makes you stronger; :hungry:

Reading makes you wiser. :nerd:

I have heard that secret messages would be circulated as harmless ads in coded

words in newspapers and other sources!

Is something similar happening in the forum.. in an unfamiliar language?

A language none of us know...a message/ an invitation for someone unknown to

the others in the forum...under the guise of a poem???

Something really fishy is going on!

 

[Raji Ram]

I have already sent a note to the one who posts in that unknown language!

Hope it will NOT continue!!! ....:blah:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

They are being posted in an unknown language so that

none of us could read them; but the one for whom

they are are intended can read them!

Trying to make monkeys out of the members of the Forum! :mmph:

Did you note the terms of endearment 'by oneself', 'for oneself' and 'to

oneself'!!! :horn:

I read a mail i.d in which the name of the girl was followed by 'sosweet!"

I still think the other should say whether or not a person is sweet!:moony:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

Wow! What a great feat!?

Two (or more?) persons appearing to be one...

Sharing the same user name and password...

exchanging intimate messages under the nose of the elite public...:hug:

under the guise of poems....

written in a strange language...

must be coded in order to avoid exposition...

by any one with knowledge of that language?

What more can happen in a forum??? :shocked:

Yes! something more can happen...
when the writer(s) find person(s) to cheer her/him/them! :cheer2:

Remember my post on Mr. S and Mrs. S?

How Mrs. Sonia goes about doing things her way :ballchain:

and how Mr. Singh is only too happy :loco:


to take the blame on himself to save her.

Well! There are more Sonia(s) and Mr. Singh(s) :croc:
in the world than we can really imagine! :faint:

[FONT=comic sans ms,sans-serif]Just for a change!

I am always under a microscope ready to be dissected by friend and foes!

For a change I wanted to put someone else under the microscope today.

Lo and behold what I happened to find out!!! :shocked:

A person is yearning to bring to daylight her (non existing) talents in (unknown) Tamil.

But she has to take the help of a Mr. Know All (and end all) for that purpose.

A person who knows all the languages including Malay so well as to help with the translations of her so called poems..

The team wants to publish a book of poems in Tamil (#6)

The translators sings his own praise (#7).

There is a funny picture of man with many women # 13 titled Double Decker!

Double Decker of what or who ???

The venue and time for the rendezvous (?) in # 14.
To be confirmed by telephone??

Addressing oneself as dear followed by her own name?(#18)

A single red rose and mention of a platform where to
(pick her up?) in #21

One more mention of the same platform in # 24

Wants to lie... tell a lie of just lie down to relax? #25..

A mention about foto in #29.

What a lot of contribution to Tamil and Tamil poems has been done by the trio? :doh:

It was very convenient since no one had entered the thread until it was closed and the group banned! :bolt:

I never thought Tamil would have had to depend of such contributors for her very existence and development!

Artists like Vincent Von Gogh and many writers and their books

became famous posthumously! :rip:

History is repeated and one thread has become

posthumously famous after it was closed recently!

No one entered when the doors were left open! :welcome:

So much of traffic after the doors are closed.

The world never ceases to surprise me!

Dear Mrs Visalakshi Ramani,

Well said. To appreciate and enjoy beauty in any form, it requires the blessings of the Lord. Very few people are endowed with this talent by nature. We always talk about the past and miss the present. That is human nature. How many of us have noticed the works of an young artist in Tamil Nadu in the issues of Ananda Vikadan? I am referring to the talented youngster Elaya Raja, whose pictures were adopted to stories and poems in Ananda Vikadan. "He is an artist who follows the traditional style in these modern times. He is a realistic artist who does a lot of portraiture and so on," says an art critic. He comes on the lines of Raja Ravi Varma and S.M.Pandit, whom we consider artists of classical realism. I would consider Elaya Raja's work as Modern realism who specialises on day to day world.
You have to see his works available in the following Website to understand the greatness of this budding Artist.

Oil Painting - Elayaraja Art Gallery - Oil Painting, Water Colour Painting, Knife Painting, Acrylic Painting, Print Making, Photography

Dear Mrs Raji Ram,

Since I was out of the Country on three weeks' vacation, I have not been following Tamil Brahmin threads on regular basis. However, I would be interested in going through the thread mentioned.
