Tamilot

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

A few weeks ago, Google Current featured a profile on “Tamil”. Yes, the word “tamil”. One important fact that I learned from this profile was that according to the last US census, Jersey has the largest number of Tamil speakers in the US. Another fact - 30 percent of all searches for the word “tamil” originate from the US.

Assorted other tidbits:

* After approximately half a decade, it could still be possible now for one to download a wall paper of Prabhudeva and Gayathri Jayaram doing the “Walk like a Egyptian” dance while moving to “Manja kaatu maina”.

* Vadivelu seems to be having fun in Imsai Arasan - 23 “A.M” Pulikesi! But for the non Tamil readers, “Whoa” is an acceptable reaction as well.

* Ashok (M.S E.E /Santa Clara/Brahmin/Brahmacharanam/Uthradam/Sankrithi), take a bow. You are famous. Or will be, if another 10 or 15 bloggers pick up this and one of them does a funny post. Or if this post is Dp’ed. Or if Nilu does a post that pukes on your profile.

To end, a quick thought that came to my mind when I saw the tag-line for this video. If Tamil Nadu is “Tamilot”, then who is King Arthur? The Gaptain, that’s who!

(P.S: BG, thanks for the link kiddo!)
