No. I don’t think Anjappa – the human monkey and his elder brother will ever understand the original Jumanji. For them what they are doing is not a fancy dress competition. This is plain life. roti, kapda and makkan.
I met these kids on a monday morning ….
( My Brother I will make you the best monkey in town )

Tony Will be happy to hear about the news. So is parents.
This was clicked at Chamundi Hill, Mysore. Lets dedicate it to our Judiciary system – on behalf of Tony and all other kids and their parents who don’t have to go through the blunder again.
(Hey, Sruthi thanks for intimating me)
This sunday we attended a friend’s marriage. Got a chance to meet old buddies and have wonderful food. And at the end of the function they gave us some goodies to take home :-). Well the intresting thing is that this was the sixth (or is it 7th) arranged love marriage I had atteneded in a row. Half a dozen. Now thats something right ? Way to go …
Best wishes A & R !
Yesterday I received a untidy, box shaped courier.
On removing the paper covering I found a thermocol box and a small bottle of fish pickle kept inside it. I wanted to taste the fish pickle from the first day I heared about it – a friend told me. And this is my chance to taste it. At times we see our lives taking unexpected turns and crumbling us & then it surprises us by fulfilling even the smallest of our wishes. Here, I just came across such an incident.
My dear friend instead of thanking you, I can believe in The Alchemist quote “When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” and keep silent.
One glass to friendship’s glory lend,
That makes all sorrows lighter—
O happy he who owns a friend!
Heaven has no blessing brighter.
Our joys to swell, our griefs to share
While by life’s storms we’re driven,
Our conscience to direct us here,
Our friendly staff for heaven.

Hey Smilebringer, Thanks for taking me to the wonderful world of Minstrels !
Tony the little kid just cleared his LKG interview.
Congrats Dear.
(I wonder whether he knows what an interview is. I wonder how he managed to clear the interview. I wonder how those humans who conducted his interview are able to conduct it.)
Update: This is copy pasted from flickr. I had posted this photo on the day he was having interview. The result was announced recently. The description of the images was:
Tony is a 3 year old boy who lives in the (ex) Garden City of India. His parents provides me and many others with the best food available in the software Jungle. And today Tony and His parents are having interview for his nursery school admission. Well Best Wishes Tony! (Sigh …)
