Welcome!


I HAVE SOME INTERESTING OBSERVATIONS TO SHARE WITH ALL OF YOU.


America has an extreme shortage of originality! And thats where "re-invention" steps in. Take for example the state language. Now you will ask whats new about that...it is ENGLISH offcourse!


Yes it is ENGLISH...with an american twist...and for America's sake....


Dissection is Diisection....


Scheduled is Skeduled....


Multitasking is Multiitasking....


Got you is gotcha....


There goes my English...in the dump..





Talking about language and pronunciation..on my recent trip to LA..at the airport security check..the guard looks at my driver's license and asks....


"Do you know who Raul is?"


I don't understand where he is coming from and gesture.


"Ahh brother....Raul Castro....he's now running Cuba...aint he?."


Now what does Raul have anything to do with Rahul? Meet RAUL MEITA for America's sake!


By the way...that gentleman was...you know....k*ll*..if you understand what I mean!





Now many American's have Scottish ancestry. Needless to say...they have Scottish names...McIntosh...McKinney...O'Connor etc.


Considering India was a British colony, I and all of you have some understanding of how to pronounce these names...I'm sure.


So, I meet a Mr. O'Laughlin in the clinic...(pronounced O'Locklin in Scotland).


I greet him..."How are you doing Mr. O'Locklin?" He sits expressionless. Now I am not soft-spoken...nor is he deaf.


My attending politely corrects me..."You doing all right...MR. O'LAUGHLIN?"(pronounced as O'LAUGHLIN).


Moral of the story...if you cant innovate...just re-invent!
