Aftermath of cat and dog fight

 Once a King and his minister were sitting on the roof top enjoying the moonlight.


They were eating jackfruit pieces dipped in honey. 


They were enjoying and relishing the sweetness of jackfruit.. 


One piece of jackfruit dipped in honey accidentally fallen down to ground. 


Minister was aware of this but both of them felt lazyness to go down and pick it up. 


A house fly sat down on the fallen jackfruit piece.


As it was very sweet, house fly was enjoying it. 


A lizard  saw the house fly and attacked. House fly was not aware of the lizard and easily became the food for lizard.



A cat of the nearby house was watching the lizard and suddenly pounced on it.


Lizard died instantly. 


Cat was preparing itself to eat the lizard and that time the dog from the opposite house saw the cat.



Dog started barking continuously,   Cat was not left behind. 


Cat started to shout in the unique voice they use when they are about to fight. 


King and his minister were watching all these. 


Minister asked the king to stop the fight between cat and dog. 


King said It is the usual fight between cat and dog.  Don't worry about it. Nothing will happen.


Minister didn't say anything.


Listening to the voice of cat, it's owner, a lady came out.


She saw a dog barking on her pet. 


She was angry on dog and took a stick and hit the dog twice with the stick. 



Dog started to moan.


Listening to the moaning of dog,  its owner came out. 


He was an ex military man. 


Both lady and ex military man started to quarrel. 


Soon the news spread and whole of the kingdom started to fight. 


Rioters taking advantage of this, hurled a petrol bomb on the Palace. 


Palace burnt down fully. 


Noticing the chaos, the king of the neighbourhood kingdom declared the war and easily captured it. 


King along with his ministers and Royal family fled the kingdom. 


Just because of the cat and dog fight, whole scenario was changed  !!

Why do mosquito bites swell ?

 Mosquitoes bite humans to drink their blood. The nutrients available in human blood helps female mosquito to make eggs for reproduction.


Mosquito uses the sharp tip of its straw like mouth to pierce human skin.


That time it locates the blood vessel . It injects saliva which makes the blood not to clot .


Our body recognizes this saliva as the foreign substance. This causes an immune system response.


The swelling around the bite is caused by histamine which is produced by immune system.


Histamine increases the blood flow and white blood cell count around that area.


This causes inflammation or swelling.

Am I the only person to blame ??!!

 One evening Mulla Naseeruddin and his wife returned from Market to see their house burgled.



Almost everything has been taken away from the house.



It's all your fault !!  You didn't make sure to securely lock the door of house, ranted his wife being angry.

Simple and easy solution

 Rahul was feeling restless.


For so many days, he could not sleep well during the night. 


In his room, he sleeps alone. 


But as soon as he nears his cot to sleep,  he is having the feeling that someone is hiding under his cot. 


Even if he checks thoroughly under cot, the feeling of someone is hiding under the cot don't go away from his mind. 



Nowadays, he tries to sleep with the lights on. 


But it is of no use. 


Tired of sleepless nights, he decided to consult with the psychiatrist. 


Listening to the problem, psychiatrist said, 


This seems to be a serious psychological problem. You need counciling.


I will do the counciling in sessions. 


It may take up 15 sessions. 


I will charge 1000 rs per session. 


Listening to that, Rahul started worrying.


He don't have that much money with him. 


He didn't say anything and left the place. 


Rahul was sitting in the park thinking about what to do next ??


That time a friend of his , saw him and asked him what is wrong ?


Rahul said everything. 


That time friend said, 

Try to sleep on the ground.  Not  on  cot  !!!

Oldest languages in the world

 Recently I came across this article on newspaper.


It is about oldest languages in the world. 


They are - - - - - - --


Tamil


Greek 


Hebrew 


Chinese 


Samskrit 


I started to read the comments. 


One reader by the name Farooq had commented that, 


Samskrit is a dead language. Only few brahmins speak the language here and there. Common people are not allowed to speak it.


Samskrit is not a people's language. 


By reading this, I felt pity about the mental condition of commentator. 


We are in 21st century. 


In ancient India, I agree people are not allowed to learn Samskrit. 


But now time has been changed........... 


I myself studied Samskrit in my school days for 8 years. 


I still have the ability to communicate in Samskrit. 


By learning Samskrit, I can speak the tongue twisters easily. 


As I went for higher education, I switched to English. 


Samskrit is not a dead language. 


In Udupi, we have Samskrit college where we can pursue master degrees.


Commentator is a Muslim. He has to change his pre occupied mind. 


Don't judge anything on basis of religion, please. 


Yesterday Samskrit literature has been awarded Jnanpeeth puraskaar. 


Samskrit is one of the official languages of India.

Bheja fry question

 This question I heard it recently on web radio.. 


Question


A waste is in the lake.


It doubles its size each day.


On the 20th day, it covers the whole lake.


On what day, waste covers half of the whole lake  ???


Answer


By reading the question, we tend to answer the question as 10th day..


Because I answered it like that   !!!


But answer is not correct.


Read the second sentence carefully. 


It reads "  it doubles each day ".


This means,


If the waste covers full lake on 20th day, 

IT HAS TO COVER HALF OF THE LAKE ON 19TH DAY.


We must not worry what has happened between first and 19th day. 


So answer is on 19th day


Not 10th day !!!!

What is LRAD?

 Farmers are protesting so that their demands can be met near Delhi border. To disperse them, police are using LRAD so.


What is LRAD ?


LRAD is Long Range Accoustic Device.


It is a speaker system and sound energy weapon. 


It produces sound at higher power.


It has been used as a method of crowd control and can cause permanent hearing damage.


But they are non lethal weapons.

Love story of Parijata

 Parijata or Night Jasmine is a flower which blooms at night.


It is also called Deva Pushpa means flower from heaven.


According to Hindu  mythology , this flower or tree originated during Samudra Mathana .


King of heaven Indra had this tree and Shri Krishna had brought this tree from heaven.


But I am telling a love story of a princess named Parijata and Sun .


Princess Parijata started to love Sun.


Everyone warned her about heat of Sun but she didn't listen to anyone.


Even Sun himself tried to convince her. But she was adamant and then Sun also started loving her. 


They were made for each other. 


Sun came to earth to live with his love, Parijata. 


Without Sun, whole world has come to standstill. 


All the heavenly bodies are successful in convincing Sun to return to his work. 


Parijata too followed him but she was burnt alive by the heat of Sun. 


Sun was devastated by watching his love in ashes. 


He requested the heavenly bodies to make Parijata to live again. 


Heavenly bodies made a tree to born out of the ashes. 


That tree is Parijata tree.  The flowers of the tree bloom during night and they fall to ground as soon as the Sun rises in the east. 


It is a remembrance of Princess Parijata and her love towards Sun and also her sacrifice.

 Once guests had come to a miser"s house.


That time wife was preparing for lunch . Watching the guests , she decided to prepare the lunch in large quantities.


Everything was going well . At the end of preparing food, a small lizard accidentally falls into the vessel of already cooked rice .


Wife got scared . She called her husband and showed him the vessel and explained what has happened.


Miser thought for a moment . Large quantities of dishes have been prepared . Being a miser, he didn't want to throw the prepared rice to dust bin .


Miser ordered his wife to remove the dead lizard from the vessel.


He asked her not to tell anyone about the incident .


Couple served the same rice to guests..


Guests without knowing what had happened , had their lunch .


No casualty have been reported .


But Yama and Chitragupta were watching this .


Yama said Miser and his wife should be punished for serving the contaminated meal to guests. 


Chitragupta didn't agree with Yama. 


According to him There is no fault of anyone. Lizard accidentally fell into rice vessel. 


After eating the contaminated food, no casualty has been reported. There is no need to give punishment to anyone. 



Still the argument is going on between Yama and Chitragupta regarding who is the culprit   ? 


Is the culprit    Miser himself  or

                               His wife  or

                               The fallen lizard itself  ???!!!!

Why did Nandi cursed Ravana ?

 Ravana and Kubera are step brothers.


Once Ravana defeated Kubera in the fight. He looted Alakanagari where Kubera resides.



After all this, Ravana was flying back to Lanka in his Pushpaka Vimana. Pushpaka Vimana was stuck at a place.



Ravana was unable to move it what all he tried to. 


Ravana got down from Pushpaka Vimana and  spotted Nandi standing as a guard.


Ravana went near Nandi and asked him why is he unable to fly across this place ?


That time Nandi replied This is Kailash where divine couple God Shiva and Goddess Parvati reside.


Now they are spending private time together and no one is allowed to pass through Kailash at this time. 


Hearing that,  Ravana called Nandi a MONKEY.


Ravana tried to enter inside forcibly.


Enraged by this, Nandi cursed Ravana that monkeys will destroy you in future. 


We know how in Ramayana, monkeys with their army invaded Lanka and conquered it.

Fixing the value of self esteem

 Once Mulla Naseeruddin went to court wearing a costly turban on his head.


The turban was successful in capturing the attention of every one present in the court including the King.


King called Naseeruddin near him and asked how much did he pay for the turban  ?



Naseeruddin thought for a moment and then replied he paid 1000 golden coins.




King was impressed with the price value and said for such a small amount of price, it is impossible to get a turban like this.



Naseeruddin said I said the same thing to seller but he said only a King can know the worth of this turban.



Hearing that King thought turban must be the one which is suitable only for royal people..




Without thinking much, King bought the turban from Naseeruddin for 10000 golden coins.



After the deal, Naseeruddin came out and was jubilant that  by invoking the self esteem of King, finally he got a good deal for average turban  !!!

Bheja fry question

 Recently I came across this question on web radio.


Question 


What is impossible to do in the world ?


This question must be having different answers according to each one's view point. 


One listener said,  " To satisfy a woman !!!"


Another said, " To stop ageing ,  To stop the time"


One more said, " To stop women from talking to each other  !!!"


But I think it is impossible to satisfy everyone, not only women !!!!!

Braveness of Bhim

 This story is from Mahabharat


It was the day when Dronacharya  abandoned his weapons and decided to withdraw from the battlefield .


That time Dhristadrimnya came and beheaded Dronacharya .


This news was heard by his son Ashwatthama and he thought Pandavas by cheating killed his father .


In the mood of rage, he initiated Narayanastra . This is the weapon which is far superior to all the other weapons .


Speciality of this weapon is that if opponent bow down his head infront of it , it would not harm him .


But if the opponent challenges , then it would not spare  him . It just kill him .


When Ashwatthama initiated this weapon , Sri Krishna asked everyone to surrender their weapon and bow down their heads  down .


Everyone did as Krishna asked them to do . 


But Bhim did not agree to surrender and bow down his head infront of a weapon .


Everyone including  Krishna tried to make him understand . But Bhim said he is a warrior and will never bow down his head infront of anyone  .


Narayanastra targeted him and Bhim was surrounded by raging fire .


Bhim had not expected this .. 


When he came to know that it is the weapon gifted by lord Vishnu himself , then he agreed to surrender himself infront of Narayanastra.


That much confidence Bhim had on his bravery .


In kurukshetra war , Bhim alone had killed most opponents .

Judgement given by Naseeruddin

 Naseeruddin was working as a judge in the local court.



One day,  his neighbour came running towards Naseeruddin and asked him

  if  one man's  bull kills another man's bull , can the owner of the first

 bull held responsible ?? 


Because your bull has killed mine  !!! 







Naseeruddin said,

How can it be possible ?  Animals can not think like humans.   Bull can

 not be held responsible, so as the owner of the bull !!! 







Listening to that neighbour changed the tone, 





Actually it was my bull that has killed your bull   !!! 







Listening to that, Naseeruddin said, 





This case is not simple and straightforward as I thought earlier !! 


We need to reconsider the whole thing separately. 







After saying this, Naseeruddin ordered his assistant to bring the book of law

for the punishment  !!!!

Is it cheating ?

 A singer came to King's Court and was showing him his skills in music.


King was very impressed with the singing talent of singer and announced that he is awarding 1000 gold coins to singer.


Singer was very happy. He thanked the  King. He went near Royal treasurer to receive his award.


When he met the treasurer and asked him to give his award, treasurer refused to give. 


Treasurer said he didn't receive any instructions from the King.


Singer again went near King and said what the treasurer had said when he went to collect the money.


King said you made my mind to be happy by your singing. Similarly I made your mind happy by saying that I am giving you the award. That's all.


Singer accused King of cheating him.  But King was firm with his decision.



Now, is it not cheating  ???

We all were watching him in the shock. 


He flexed his muscles of hand and showed us how strong he is, just like chota bheem  !!!!

Which country has the maximum number of time zone ???

 The above question was asked on Koun Banega Karodpati program recently.


Question 


Which country has the maximum number of time zones ??


USA 


Russia 


France 


United Kingdom 


Answer 


After listening to the question, I thought it should be either Russia or United States of America. 


Because both are vast in size. 


But correct answer is  France !!!!


I am not talking about Metropolitan country France.


Like many other colonial  powers, France has territories outside France,  in fact through out the world !!!


The territories have exactly same government structure as rest of France. They have more autonomy and can pass their own rules.


Frances's overseas territories are very scattered. Taking in Caribbean, South America,  Indian ocean,  Pacific ocean and also in Antarctica !!!!


This gives France a lot of time zones..


France has a presence on all the 5 continents  !!!!
