Chidambarathil oru appasamy (Pre-release review)

Name says it all...

According to Tamil grammer, 'சிதம்பரத்தில் ஒரு அப்பாசாமி' is wrong. It should be 'சிதம்பரத்தில் ஓர் அப்பாசாமி'.

ஒரு cannot be used before உயிரெழுத்து, so it should be ஓர்.

Atlast, my twelve years of tamil study borne some fruit. uumph...

Cool Poem

This one I got through one of the forwards. Pretty cool uhh..

"This poem was written by a terminally ill young girl in a New York Hospital." - I dont know about this shit, but read on...

It was sent by a medical doctor
SLOW DANCE
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,"Hi" <>You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day, It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.
