I thank the readers of this thread for the encouraging number of views. ray2:
The number of views since yesterday's post is 350+opcorn:
These are not copy pasted in multicolors from other sources.
I had run from pillar to post and collected these adages and quotes
and made them into a lovely blog EAST MEETS WEST in WordPress
with the apt translation either from English to Tamil
or from Tamil to English and included suitable cartoons
(thanks to the 1000s of Google images.)
This blog has got three raving reviews in the past three years.
I am sure it will get one this year also.
I do not believe in presenting what the other people have created as my own!
I thank the two Men shrouded in Mystery for this threadray2:
one of whom gave me the confidence to try these one liners
and the other man (or group of men) who made it necessary by quitting suddenly. :bolt:
