$ 'Indian' Mom & NRI Son [Nice]
Mom comes to visit her son Kumar ....who lives with a girl roommate Sunita.
During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how
pretty Kumar's, roommate was.
She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this
had only made her more curious.
Over thecourse of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started
to wonder if there was more between Kumar and his roommate than met the
eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, Kumar volunteered, "I know what you must
be thinking, but I assure you, Sunita and I are just roommates."
About a week later, Sunita came to Kumar saying, "Ever since your mother
came to dinne r, I've been unable to find the
silver chutney jar. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"
Kumar said,"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure."
So he sat down and wrote :
Dear Mother:
I'm not saying that you 'did' take the chutney jar from my house, I'm not
saying that you 'did not' take the chutney jar.
But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for
dinner.
Love, Kumar
Several days later, Kumar received an email from his mother which read
Dear Son:
I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Sunita, and I'm not saying that you
do not' sleep with Sunita. But the fact
remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found
the chutney jar by now under the pillow...
Love,
Mom.

Bush, Manmohan, Aishwarya Rai and Sonia are traveling in a train. The
train goes through
tunnel and it gets completely dark. Suddenly there is a kissing sound
and
then a slap!
The train comes out of the tunnel. The women and Manmohan are
sitting there looking perplexed. Bush is bent over holding his face,
which
is red from an apparent slap. All of them remain diplomatic and nobody
says
anything.
Sonia is thinking:
These Americans are all crazy after Aishwarya. Bush must have tried to
kiss her in the tunnel. Very proper that she slapped him.
Aishwarya is thinking:
Bush must have tried to kiss me but kissed Sonia instead and got
slapped.
Bush is thinking:
Damn it. Manmohan must have tried to kiss Aishwarya. She might have
thought it was me and slapped me.
Manmohan is thinking:
If this train goes through another tunnel I will make another
kissing sound and slap Bush again.

$ BIG B's Next Film [Story]
A boy and a girl loved each other very
deeply.
When the girl's father came to know
about their love, he did not like it at
all, and so began to protest about it.
Now it happened that the two lovers
decided to leave their homes for a happy
future.
The girl's father started searching for
the two lovers but could not find
them.
At last, he accepted their love and
asked them to come back home thru a
local newspaper. Her father said "If
you both come back I will allow you to marry the
guy you love, I accept that you loved
each other truly."
So in this way, their love won and they
returned home.
The couple next day went to town to shop
for the wedding dress. He was dressed
in a white shirt that day. While he was
crossing the road to the other side to
get some drinks for his wife, a car
came and hit him and he died on the spot.
The girl was devastated and lost her
senses. It was only after sometime that
she recovered from her shock.
The funeral and cremation was the very
next day because he had died horribly.
Two nights later, the girl's mother had
a dream in which she saw an old lady.
The old lady asked her mother to wash the blood
stains of the guy from her daughter's
dress as soon as possible. But her
mother ignored the dream.
The next night her father had the same
dream, he also ignored it. Then the
girl had the same dream the next night, she
woke up in fear and told her mother
about the dream. Her mother asked her
to wash the clothes with the blood
stains
immediately.
She washed the stains but some remained.
Next night she again had the same
dream. She again washed the stains but some
still remained. But again the next
night she had the same dream and this
time the old lady gave her a last
warning to wash the blood stain, or
else something terrible would happen.
This time the girl tried her best to
wash the stains, and the clothes
nearly tore, but some stains still remained.

$ A Great Love Story [Wonderful]
This is a true story of a young college girl who passed away last month. Her name was Priya. She was hit by a lorry. She has a boy friend named Shankar. Both of them are true lovers. They always hang on the phone. You can never see her without her handphone. In fact she also changed her phone from Airtel to Hutch, so both of them can be on the same network, and save on the cost.
She spends half of the day talking with shankar. Priya's family knows about their relationship. Shankar is very close with Priya's family. (just imagine their love) . Before she passed away she always told her friends "If I pass away please burn me with my handphone" she also said the same thing to her parents.
After her death, people cant carry her coffin, I was there. A lot of them tried to do so but still cant , everybody including me, had tried to carry the coffin, the result is still the same. Eventually, they called their neighbour, a "bomoh" from Thailand (pak Darin), who is a friend of her father. He took a stick and started speaking to himself slowly. After a few minutes, he said "this girl misses something here". then her friends told Darin about her intentions to burn her with her phone. He then opened the coffin and place her phone and SIM card inside the casket. after that they tried to carry the coffin. It could be moved and they carried it into the van easily. All of us were shocked. (can u feel the fear. I'm shaking at this moment)
Priya's parents did not inform Shankar that Priya had passed away. After 2 weeks Shankar called Priya's mom. Shankar :...."Atte, I'm coming home today. Cook something nice for me. Dont tell Priya that I'm coming home today, i wanna surprise her." Her mother replied....."You come home first, i wanna tell you something very important." after he came, they told him the truth about Priya.
Shankar thinks that they were playing a fool. He was laughing and said "dont try to fool me - tell Priya to come out, i have a gift for her Please stop this nonsense". then they show him the original death certificate to him. They gave him proof to make him believe. (Shankar started to sweat) ..
He said... "Its not true. we spoke yesterday. She still calls me. Shankar was shaking. Suddenly, Shankar's phone rang. "see this is from Priya, see this..." he showed the phone to priya's family. all of them told him to answer.he talked using the loudspeaker mode. all of them heard his conversation.
Loud and clear, no cross lines, no humming. It is the actual voice of Priya & there is no way others could use her SIM card since it is nailed inside the coffin they were so shocked and asked for pak Darin's help again. pak Darin brought his master (tok Chen) to solve this matter. He & Darin worked for 5 hours. Then they discovered one thing...

$ Three Parrots [Nice]
A man wanted to buy his son a parrot as a birthday present.
The next day he went to the pet shop and saw
three identical parrots in a cage.
He asked the clerk, "how much for the parrot on the right?
The owner said it was $250.
"$250", the man said. "Well what does he do?
"He knows how to use all of the functions of Microsoft Office 2000, responds the clerk. "He can do all of your spreadsheets and type all of your letters."
The man then asked what the second parrot cost.
The clerk replied, $500, but he not only knows Office 2000, but is an expert computer programmer.
Finally, the man inquired about the cost of the last parrot.
The clerk replied, "$1,000."
Curious as to how a bird can cost $1,000, the man asked what this bird's specialty was.
The clerk replies, "Well to be honest I haven't seen him do anything.
But the other two call him " Project Manager "

$ The Shipwreck Survivors [Fun - Tale]
A guy, a sheep, and a dog were survivors of a terrible shipwreck and they found themselves stranded on a desert island.
After being there awhile, they got into the habit of going to the beach every evening to watch the sun go down. One particular evening, the sky was red with beautiful cirrus clouds, the breeze was warm and gentle; a perfect night for romance. As they sat there, the sheep started looking better and better to the man. Soon, he leaned over to the sheep and put his arm around it.
The dog got jealous, growling fiercely until the man took his arm from around the sheep. After that, the three of them continued to enjoy the sunsets together, but there was no more cuddling.
A few weeks passed by, and lo and behold, there was another shipwreck. The only survivor was a beautiful young woman, the most beautiful woman the guy had ever seen. She was in a pretty bad way when they rescued her, and they slowly nursed her back to health.
When the young maiden was well enough, they introduced her to their evening beach ritual. It was another beautiful evening, red sky, cirrus clouds, a warm and gentle breeze, perfect for a night of romance. Pretty soon, the guy started to get "those feelings" again.
He fought them as long as he could, but he finally gave in, cautiously leaned over to the young woman, and whispered in her ear...
"Would you mind taking the dog for a walk ?!?"

$ உனக்குள் என்னையும்...எனக்குள் உன்னையும்... [Nice Lyrics]
தொலைந்து போனோம்...
எப்படி சொல்வது?
உன்னை எழுப்பிய
நள்ளிரவு வேளையில்
தூக்கக் கலக்கத்திலும்
வெட்கம் கலந்து
நீ சிரித்த
அந்த சிரிப்பை...
ஒருவழியாய்
வெட்கம் தொலைத்து
அருகில் வந்தமர்ந்த உன்
உச்சி முகர்ந்து
தந்த முத்தத்தில்
தொலைந்து போனேன்...
பேசமுடியாத
ஊமையானேன்...
முதல் ஸ்பரிசம்
என்பதாலோ என்னவோ?
என்னவோ
தெரியவில்லை?
இரவு வந்துவிட்டால்
உனக்குள் ஒரு
அதீத தைரியமும்
வந்து விடுமோ?
மார்பில்
உன் முகம் புதைத்த
போது ஒரு குழந்தையின்
ஸ்பரிசத்தை உணர முடிந்தது...
காமத்திற்கு அங்கு
இடமில்லாமல் போனது...
கற்றை முடி விளக்கி
நீ தந்த முத்தத்தில்
ஒரு தாயின் ஸ்பரிசத்தை
உணர முடிந்தது...
தாரத்தின் வடிவில்
மற்றுமொரு தாய்...
வாடிப்போன
என் இதழ்களுக்கு
புத்துயிர் கிடைத்தது
உன் பூவிரல்களால்
தொட்டு வருடிய போது...
எனக்கே என்
இதழ்களை பிடித்துப்போனது
உன் பூவிதழ்களால்
என் இதழ்கள் நனைத்த போது...
இதுவரை
கண்டிராத சுவையை
கண்டு கொண்டேன்
உன் இதழ்களில்...
இதுவரை
நுகராத வாசனையை
நுகர்ந்தேன்
உன் மேனியில்...
காமம் கண்விழித்து
பால் மாறிப்போனோம்
சற்று நேரத்தில்...
நீ ஆண் பாலாய்...
நான் பெண் பாலாய்...
உன் பயம்
கலந்த ஆக்கிரமிப்பு
என்னை
திக்குமுக்காடச் செய்தது...
முத்தமிட முயலுகையில்
இருவரும் முகம் விலக்கி
விளையாடியதும்...
தழுவலின் போது
புதிய மொழியை
வெளியிட்டதும்...
வெளிச்சத்தில்
உன் நிலா முகம்
பார்க்க முயற்சித்த
என்னை தடுத்ததும்...
இது புதிது தான்
இருவருக்கும்...
இரசிக்கும்படியாகவே இருந்தது
செய்தவைகள் யாவும்...
இருவருமே
எதையோ தேடித் தேடி
தொலைத்து போனோம்
உனக்குள் என்னையும்...

எப்படி சொல்வது?
உன்னை எழுப்பிய
நள்ளிரவு வேளையில்
தூக்கக் கலக்கத்திலும்
வெட்கம் கலந்து
நீ சிரித்த
அந்த சிரிப்பை...
ஒருவழியாய்
வெட்கம் தொலைத்து
அருகில் வந்தமர்ந்த உன்
உச்சி முகர்ந்து
தந்த முத்தத்தில்
தொலைந்து போனேன்...
பேசமுடியாத
ஊமையானேன்...
முதல் ஸ்பரிசம்
என்பதாலோ என்னவோ?
என்னவோ
தெரியவில்லை?
இரவு வந்துவிட்டால்
உனக்குள் ஒரு
அதீத தைரியமும்
வந்து விடுமோ?
மார்பில்
உன் முகம் புதைத்த
போது ஒரு குழந்தையின்
ஸ்பரிசத்தை உணர முடிந்தது...
காமத்திற்கு அங்கு
இடமில்லாமல் போனது...
கற்றை முடி விளக்கி
நீ தந்த முத்தத்தில்
ஒரு தாயின் ஸ்பரிசத்தை
உணர முடிந்தது...
தாரத்தின் வடிவில்
மற்றுமொரு தாய்...
வாடிப்போன
என் இதழ்களுக்கு
புத்துயிர் கிடைத்தது
உன் பூவிரல்களால்
தொட்டு வருடிய போது...
எனக்கே என்
இதழ்களை பிடித்துப்போனது
உன் பூவிதழ்களால்
என் இதழ்கள் நனைத்த போது...

$ The Stock Market [Nice]
The Stock Market simply illustrated... is there a lesson here?
Once upon a time in a village, a man appeared and announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for Rs10. The villagers seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them.
The man bought thousands at Rs10 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort. He further announced that he would now buy at Rs20. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again. Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms.
The offer rate increased to Rs25 and the supply of monkeys became so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey let alone catch it. The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at Rs50! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy on behalf of him.
In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers. "Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at Rs35 and when the man returns from the city , you can sell it to him for Rs50."
The villagers squeezed up with all their savings to buy the monkeys.
Then they never saw the man nor his assistant, only monkeys everywhere!!!!
