New comment i have posted in NPR

Regarding http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2010/04/aliens_stephen_hawking.html
Stephen warned about aliens...

"If i were a alien, i will sit at a distance and watch earth like a fish tank.
To get amused, i will give some nightmares to people like stephen and watch what happens.
I will be rolling on floor and laughing."

Regarding MNIK, I have posted the following in NPR

First of all, Thanks to NPR for the review (I think that this may be a counter programming activities to subdue sentiments brought by media for Sharukh Khan's 4 hour US airport interrogation). I would never wanter to see Brad pit is been interrogated in indian airport.
Now regarding the MNIK, This is a simple and superficial movie, inspired from many old movies. But, It has nice subtle messages, very relevant to our time. Even Mr.Forrest Gump made to fortune magazine overnight shrimping. I wish MNIK shall overcome picky critics and haters.

NPR Fort hood shooting comment

I have posted following comment in NPR for Fort hood shooting:
"When war becomes military-industrial complex's business with profit as pure vision, The human life and minds are treated as expendable sources. Machines are treated and maintained rather than soldier's mind."

Do you feel like blaming somebody for all this crisis?

you could very well blame Alan Greenspan and Ayn Rand...

ஆத்திசூடி

1. அறம் செய விரும்பு Enjoy giving alms

2. ஆறுவது சினம் controllable thing is anger

3. இயல்வது கரவேல் Never stop learning

4. ஈவது விலக்கேல் Don't prevent charity (Always be charitable)

5. உடையது விளம்பேல் Avoid injurious words

6. ஊக்கமது கைவிடேல் Don't give up persevering

7. எண் எழுத்து இகழேல் Don't despise learning

8. ஏற்பது இகழ்ச்சி Accepting alms is despicable

9. ஐயமிட்டுண் Eat after donating (to the needy)

10. ஒப்புர வொழுகு Act virtuously

11. ஓதுவது ஒழியேல் Don't give up reading (scriptures)

12. ஒளவியம் பேசேல் Don't carry tales

Contradictions: When Accepting alms is despicable, how could one person donate without putting other person in despicable state. So, It sounds like don't worry about how the receiver of donation feels or his conscience, just give to feel good about yourself. I don't know...It is not feels correct.

Thought of the day - Silly may be

2008-12-30T08:18:00.000-08:00

I was listening to a famous suspense genre novelist Mary Higgins Clark and her daughter Carol Higgins Clark in NPR FM 91.9. During the conversation interview asked Mary...she is born in 1927 nearly 82 years old (pardon my math)... In Mary's earlier career she was working as telephone operator at and Hilton...she was doing eave dropping on some of the clients call...She was making fun of those poor clients....When someone become famous and achieved something...will the small mistakes they do become part of justifiable acts lead to become great person... If not...What if? The same marry is obsessed with the voyeurism...accidentally listen to a secret about a killing confession...become psychopath at that time we blame her action of eave dropping right?? juz a thought...
