---------------------------------------------------------------------------- We don't understand life any better at forty than at twenty, but we know it and admit it. -Jules Renard, writer (1864-1910) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROHIT: On chatty mails: These days there is deluge of chatty kind of mails. Although such mails are very brief, they are generally of no wider interest. Please take it in a friendly spirit and appreciate that this request is not beamed at any individual whosoever. (*> I do not think the situation has become as dramatic as to call for words like 'deluge'. Perhaps such mails are not of wider interest, but they do have sort of refreshing effect, are a brief interlude between the acts of the drama of life as reflected on Nukkad. Do you not think so..? And of course the request not having been beamed at any individual whatsoever will be appreciated forever!! ; )) On reading novels: My view is, with age, most people come out of the clouds that a novel takes you onto and understand to compromise with the soil of the earth. (*> I think it is individual. I would say: the more you compromise with the soil of the earth the more you need to break away for a while. 1 novel [it is a reader's time unit] spent in the clouds helps you look at things with a slightly different perspective, see what you have not noticed before. If you find yourself in the situation you do not know how to cope with, distance is what you most often need. Just like a painter who steps back every now and again to see better where to paint the details of the picture. What changes with age is what we seek in the book and what we appreciate . [PS: Thanks for Eid Mubarak info] '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' RAGINI: but Anna I love your mail. (*> Thank you Ragini for not having scolded me. ; )) I am afraid if Taher is short sighted. :) (*> Quoting Enya: 'Who can tell? Only Time...' : )))) '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' RAWAT: The month of ramjaan concludes on the day when new moon is sighted. (*> Ramjaan, Ramzaan, Ramadan - how many more names does it have? Do they come from one language or from many? Thus, in case of clouds being there, the moon which is very much there may not visible to him. In that case, Eid is not declared the next day. (*> What if there is a longer period of bad weather? Here I have not seen the sun or the moon for a week or so! Sighting of moon by female is discounted. Only males should report that they have seen it. Eid is not eclared if females see the moon. (*> : ( There is an idiom: "eid kaa chaand ho gaye" (you have become moon of eid). As moon of eid is visible once a year, the idiom refers to a person whom you meet after a long along time. (*> That could be a motto of the World Nukkad Conference. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' AZIM: ## Wait till Mrs Tahir Kagalwala (TahirJi's Wife) hear about this then i guess you wont have to jump nor he would have too, Byhimself! My feeling says he will be thrown out of the terrace not the window (lol) (*> And my feeling says she is a woman of great sense of humour. So if such a situation occurred, it might turn quite unexpectedly! : )))) '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' PANKAJ GUPTA: As Nike says, Just do it! (*> Nike meaning the sportswear producer or the ancient Greek goddess of victory? 'Just do it!' - gosh, you are just pushing me out!! But why?! I have two guesses at that: - you can't stand the suspence - you can't stand foreigners : )))) Is either the reason..? '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' '''' AMEER: re PREG WOMAN / WORLD LEADER Anna, Good Selection; Source ? (*> A forwarded message from a teacher trainer(sic!). Is it beauty or beauties? May be after you hear from him about this beauties, u may decide whether to jump (or fight) (*> All manifestations of beauty are worth looking at. : )) Fight? Now that I have learnt traditional Hindu peaceful attitude on Nukkad? Never!! ; ))))))) Mubaarakbaad to you, Anna. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Co postawisz na wigilijnym stole? >>> http://choinka.interia.pl <<< Sponsoruja Zaklady Tluszczowe Bielmar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ To join/leave, use the form at: http://www.mumbai-central.com/nukkad/#options This list is archived at: http://www.mumbai-central.com/nukkad/archive.html
