I just thought of having atleast one thread in ILLAM in English. What I mean by 'one thread' is a thread like "kaivalya navaneetham" (by our dear brother Mr.Thirumurti Vasudevan - Thiva). We all noticed how he posted all his mails in that thread alone and maintained all the matters related to 'kaivalya navanitham' within that thread itself, all the time, perfectly. Similarly, I am thinking of having one thread (which is this thread itself with subject "Mails in English? - You can post in this thread [alone]") wherein all English posts can be maintained perfectly, all the time.
If anyone wishes to reply in English for some other thread's mail (which would be in Tamil obviously), they can quote a few lines of that mail and post his/her reply in English in this thread (i.e. "Mails in English? - You can post in this thread [alone]") itself.
I am hopeful that majority of members would welcome this. As ever (since the start of this group), let the quality of messages (as mentioned very clearly in http://azhagi.com/illam.html) alone matter most, and not quantity.

Subject: A joke from my nephew
Here is a real life joke from my nephew.
Quote:
While waiting for my first appointment in the reception room of a new
dentist, I noticed his certificate hanging on the wall; it gave his
full name. Thinking hard, I remembered that a tall, handsome boy with
the same name had been in my high school class some 36 years ago.
Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This
balding, grey-haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old to
have been my classmate.
After he had examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended the
local high school. 'Yes,' he replied.
'When did you graduate?' I asked.
He answered, 'In 1971. Why?'
'You were in my class!' I exclaimed.
He looked at me closely, and then the thoughtless idiot asked, 'What
did you teach?'

Air India is a name which all of you know. But do you know how the name came about?
In 1932, J.R.D. Tata started the company Tata Airlines. He also piloted the first flight, a De Havillend Puss Moth, from Karachi to Bombay via Ahmedabad. From Bombay to Madras its pilot was a Royal Air Force pilot by name Nevill Vincent with JRD as a passenger.
At Madras they had decided to take a few VIP passengers. In those days there were no schools or colleges on companies training staff for airlines duties and so the company had appointed two former bus conductors at Madras. The men carried a small stool like ladder, positioned it near the aircraft and asked the passengers to go up the ladder and board the plane. Near the open door JRD and Nevill Vincent were standing to receive the passengers.
As the VIP passengers were slowly climbing up the ladder with trepidation, the ex-conductors shouted, "ஏறிண்டயா... ஏறிண்டயா?"
JRD thought, "Oh, Air India. That is nice name. How this never occurred to me?" Later in 1946 when the company was converted into a public limited company JRD remembered this and named the company "AIR INDIA".
*Disclaimer:* JRD Tata's soul and JRD's successors should pardon me for this figment of imagination.

Three scholars on the way to a civil service
examination stopped to buy refreshments from
a woman who sold pastries.
One scholar was calm and quiet while the
other two argued over literature.
The woman asked where they were going, and
the arguing men told her.
"You two won't pass the exam," she said, "but
the other man will."
The results turned out just as the woman
predicted, and the two who failed went back
to find the woman to ask her if she knew some
mystic art to predict the outcome.
"No," she said, "all I know is that when a
pastry is thoroughly cooked it sits there
quietly, but before it's finished it keeps
making noise."
Our world is so full of noise it's a wonder any of us stay
sane past the age of maybe fifteen.
During the coming week, become aware of the endless noise
that surrounds modern life... and then consciously tune it
out by taking deep breaths and shifting your consciousness
inward.
Bliss and peace are only one breath away.
So take that breath and become aware of the gap between
breaths and let go of the noise and become calm and quiet
(From EarthRain Meditations)

The Principa of a school postulated that the best mehod of teaching is
the 'association method' of teaching. The teachers strictly followed
his advice.
In the annual exam there was a question in the science paper of
standard five 'What does the abdomen contain?'
One of the bright students wrote, 'The abdomen contains the bowels
which are A,E,I,O,E.'

Now, take a look at this...
101%
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:
What Equals 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than
100%?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to
GIVE OVER 100%.
How about ACHIEVING 101%?
What equals 100% in life?
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help
answer these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
CELL PHONE vs. GITA
I wonder what would happen if we treated our Gita like we treat our
cellphone?
What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?
What if we flipped through it several time a day?
What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?
What if we used it to receive messages from the text?
What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?
What if we gave it to Kids as gifts?
What if we used it when we traveled?
What if we used it in case of emergency?
This is something to make you go.....hmm...where is my Gita?
Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cell phone, we don't have to
worry about our Gita being disconnected because
Krishna already paid the bill.
Makes you stop and think 'where are my priorities?
And no dropped calls!
ESSENCE OF BHAGVAD GITA
Whatever has happened, has happened for good.
Whatever is happening, is happening for good.
Whatever is going to happen, it will be for good.
What have you lost for which you cry?
What did you bring with you, which you have lost?
What did you produce, which has destroyed?
You did not bring anything when you were born.
Whatever you have, you have received from Him.
Whatever you will give, you will give to Him.
You came empty handed and you will go the same way.
Whatever is yours today was somebody else's
Yesterday and will be somebody else's tomorrow.
SO WHY WORRY UNNECESSARILY?
Change is the law of the universe.
Venkatesh (Viji)

Dear soluable Geometry ,
With due Real sequence i am asking your opinion about the
rational marriage of my complex brother "Zero" with your
relational daughter Miss "Infinity " .she had promised a
diffrential and integral marriage ,You also know that they love
each other so much that they prepared to die for each other
The proof is given below
any digit
------------ = infinity
zero
any digit
-------------- = Zero
infinity
it ia also true that each of them possesses a weakness .My brother
is a lovable chap and he is the enemy of many good students .But he
is such a person that irrespect of his multiplication or
division with great numbers he yields nothing but himself .As
regards your daughter she is not beautiful .Therefore
i think it quite suitable .Could u tell me knidly after
consulting logritham talks the suitable day for this mathematical
ceremony
please do consult with two sisters Miss solid geometry and Real
analysis.
thinking u in binomical expansion
your correctly
x .
with love vishalam

on reading Mr Tv's mail
often people complain that they have to wait in several places -
offices,
consulting rooms, banks etc- and it is a waste of time.
carry a pocket size gita book and one can always keep reading it.
no more waste of time!
I wish to wrtie what somebody said as a JOKE about waiting while wife
getting herself ready to go out with him.
"while waiting read a book Then in your life time you would have
finished reading all the books in a Library'"
Please note it is a joke no offence meant

The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4
feet,8.5 inches. That's an exceedingly odd number. Why was that
gauge used?
Because that's the way they built them in England, and English
expatriates built the US Railroads.
Why did the English build them like that? Because the first rail
lines were built by the same people who built the Pre-railroad
tramways, and that's the gauge they used.
Why did 'they' use that gauge then? Because the people who built the
tramways used the same jigs and tools That they used for building
wagons, which used that wheel spacing.
Okay! Why did the wagons have that particular odd wheel spacing?
Well, if they tried to use any other spacing, the wagon wheels would
Break on some of the old, long distance roads in England, because
that's the spacing of the wheel ruts.
So who built those old rutted roads?
Imperial Rome built the first long distance roads in Europe (and
England) For their legions. The roads have been used ever since.
And the ruts in the roads?
Roman war chariots formed the initial ruts, which everyone else had to
Match for fear of destroying their wagon wheels. Since the chariots
were Made for Imperial Rome, they were all alike in the matter of
wheel spacing.
The United States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 ! Inches is
derived from the original specifications for an Imperial Roman war
chariot. And bureaucracies Live forever. So the next time you are
handed a specification, don't wonder why on earth it is always so.
And, for your information, the chariots were made that wide enough,
actually to accommodate the back ends of two war horses.
Now, the twist to the story........
When you see a Space Shuttle sitting on its launch pad, there are two
big booster rockets attached to The sides of the main fuel tank.
These are solid rocket boosters or SRBs. The SRBs are made by Thiokol
at their factory at Utah. The engineers who designed the SRBs would
have preferred to make them a bit fatter, but the SRBs had to be
shipped by train from the factory to the launch site. The railroad
line from the factory happens to run through a tunnel in the
mountains. The SRBs had to fit through that tunnel.
The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad
track, as you now know, is about as wide as two horses' behinds.
So, a major Space Shuttle design feature of what is arguably the
world's most advanced transportation system was determined over two
thousand years ago by the width of a horse's hind part.
