Half Baked Stuff....

I am just having a nice weekend. Nothing productive other than washing 4 sets of clothes. I am using this Lenovo Laptop of my cousin. A wonderful invention I can say. Yesterday happened to meet couple of relatives after a long time. Had a nice time listening to them talk and I doing the old part of family ritual giving a massage in the head. Last night when I along with athai were chating with the cousin, I happened to hear this term "Tanjavur Vaai chavadal". He had put this in a decent simpler manner that the people talk with just a little knowledge and project themselves as doctorates in the subject. I and athai had to argue not to generalise evrey Tanjorian to possess the habit. In the process I could atleast get this point only pure Tanjorians (people born and brought up in Tanjore Dist) are capable of this trait and the mud-bloods or the people who have roots at Tanjore but were raised elsewhere need not necessarily posses the trait. "Exceptions" were also discussed. So what does this mean to me now?? Nothing just that we had to wait for the clothes in the washing machine to spin dry and finally I and Athai dry them out at mid-night. End result I had to save my own skin to disprove I dont possess the quality inspite of being a Tanjorian. People indeed are not very happy with the Tanjore Iyers. Off late I feel bad projecting myself as an Iyer and even more as "Tanjore Iyer". Nothing that i feel bad about it just that i dont want people to presume I being clanish. :-)
