காமெடி கதை

”ஏய் உள்ளே என்ன பண்ற? சூப்பர் மார்க்கெட் போகணும் லேட் ஆகுது”.

 

“டூ மினிட்ஸ் வெயிட் பண்ணுங்க, நவீன் பாத்ரூம் போய்ட்டு இருக்கான்”.

 

“ஆமா வெளியில போகும் போது தான் அவனுக்கு எல்லாம் வரும்”.

 

“சரி, மறக்காம லாக் பண்ணி கீ எடுத்துக்கோ!”

 

 

 

 

 

 

சூப்பர் மார்க்கெட்டினுள் நுழையும் போது கதவிலிருந்த வந்த குளுமையான காற்று கோபியின் முகத்தில் பட்டது. தனக்கே உண்டான அவசர பாணியில் ஒருபுறமிருந்த தள்ளுவண்டியை உள்ளே தள்ளிச் சென்றான்.

 

”நவீன், உங்கப்பாவுக்கு பொறுமையே இல்லடா. எப்டி போறாரு பாரு”.

 

நவீன் தன் மழலை மொழியில், அப்பா பேட் ஃபெல்லோ என்று செல்லமாக சொன்னான்.

 

”காயத்ரி, பர்சேஸ் முடிச்சிட்டு நைட் அப்பிடியே ஹோட்டல்ல சாப்பிட்டுப் போலாம்”.

 

“ஓகே கோபி, இன்னைக்கு வீட்டு பக்கத்துல இருக்கிற நார்த் இண்டியன் ரெஸ்ட்ரன்ட்ல நாம சாப்பிட்டதே இல்ல, சோ அங்க ட்ரை பண்ணலாம்”.

 

உள்ளே நுழைந்தபின் எங்கு பார்த்தாலும் நியூ இயர் ஆஃபர், இதை என்னும்போதே கோபியின் கை பாக்கெட்டிலுள்ள கடன் அட்டையை தடவிச் சென்றது. ம்ம் இன்னைக்கு எவ்வளவு ஆகும்னு தெரியல, வழக்கம்போல ஃபோர் டிஜிட் போகாமிருந்தா சரி என்று எண்ணிக் கொண்டே சென்றான்.

 

“அப்பா, எனக்கு அந்த மெக்குயின் கார் வேணும். என்கிட்ட கிரீன் காரே இல்ல!”

 

“கடைக்கு வந்தா போதும் எப்ப பார்த்தாலும் இது அது வேணும்னு ஒரே டார்ச்சர். போன வாரம்தான் ஒரு கார் வாங்கின, அதுக்குள்ள இன்னோரு கார்…அப்பா சொன்ன பேச்சுக் கேட்டு சைலண்டா இரு, இல்லே நல்லா அடி வாங்குவே. வர வர உன் தொல்லை அதிகமாயிருச்சு”.

 

நவீன் கண்களில் கண்ணீர் கொட்ட ஆரம்பித்தது. அருகிலிருந்த சிறுவனின் கையிலிருந்த கார் பொம்மையை வெறித்துப் பார்த்தான்.

 

“டேய் ஏன் அழுதிட்டு இருக்க? கடைக்கு வந்தா சைலண்டா இருக்கமாட்டே நீ!” 

 

“அம்மா, அப்பா என்னை திட்டிட்டே இருக்காரு. நான் மெக்குயின் கார் கேட்டேன் அப்பா நோ சொல்லிட்டாரு”

 

”நவீன் மறுபடியும் அழுகையை ஆரம்பிக்காதே. ஒழுங்கா குட் பாய்யா இரு, அம்மா அப்பாகிட்ட சொல்றேன்”.

 

“கோபி உன்கிட்ட க்ரே கலர் சர்ட் இல்ல, இந்த சர்ட் பாரு ரொம்ப நல்லா இருக்கு”.

 

”ரெண்டு வாரம் முன்னாடிதான் ஒரு சர்ட் எடுத்தேன். ஆல்ரெடி நிறைய சர்ட் இருக்கு, சோ இப்ப வேணாம்”.

 

”நல்லாயிருந்தா எடுக்கவேண்டியதுதானே, அப்புறம் நாம தேடும்போது வேணுங்கிற கலர் கிடைக்காது”.

A Caring Puma

Daniel Olin was 11 years old when his parents moved to Edmonton in Canada. He liked his new school and made friends there, but then things at home started to change. His mum and dad began to argue and the arguments got worse and worse until one day, Daniel's mum left. With his father working long hours, Daniel felt very alone and very unhappy. He wanted to escape, to run away. And that's what he did.

Very early one bitterly cold morning when the snow was deep on the ground, he packed a bag with some clothes, his Walkman, some chocolate and a map of Canada and set off. He ran and ran until he could hardly breathe. His feet were heavy with the snow but he staggered on through deep snowdrifts, not even watching where he was going.

Then, disaster struck. A rock hidden by the deep snow caught his ankle and Daniel fell to the ground, crying in pain. He had broken the bone. And no one knew where he was to help him. He was bitterly cold and was starting to feel tired, but he knew that if he fell asleep in the snow, he would almost certainly die from the cold.

A spruce tree stirred ahead. From within the branches, a pair of yellow eyes watched Daniel. The puma had been stalking him. A puma is a powerful cat with claws that could shred Daniel into strips. But instead of moving in for the kill, the puma approached Daniel and lay across his chest and limbs. Daniel was too frightened to move, but soon the warmth of the animal reached Daniel and he began to feel better. From time to time, the puma pressed his muzzle against Daniel and rocked his head gently. Clearly, the puma knew that Daniel must not fall asleep. This animal should have been a real danger to Daniel and yet the boy began to feel safe.

They remained like that for several hours until Daniel and the puma heard voices. The rescue team had found them.

*******kangaroo*********

1. Kangaroos are marsupials. This means that they aren't pregnant for long, and they give birth when their baby is only about 2 centimetres long. The mother kangaroo then carries her joey (baby kangaroo) in her pouch whilst the baby develops and grows.
2. Kangaroos move by hopping, using their powerful hind legs and their large tails to balance. But they can't move backwards.
3. Because they eat only plant matter, kangaroos are vegetarians.
4. According to a popular story, kangaroos got their name from a misunderstanding. When European people first moved to Australia, they asked the local people what these hopping animals were called. They answered, "Kangaroo", an Aboriginal word meaning "I don't understand".
5. Each year, Australia exports 3 million kangaroo skins to Europe and the US. Their skins are used to make products such as footballs and golf gloves. Footballer David Beckham stopped using kangaroo-leather boots in 2006 after seeing a video showing the horrific slaughter of the animals.

thomas alva edison

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman. He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and a long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park",^[3] he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large-scale teamwork to the process of invention, and because of that, he is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory.^[4]
Edison was a prolific inventor, holding 1,093 US patents in his name, as well as many patents in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany. More significant than the number of Edison's patents was the widespread impact of his inventions: electric light and power utilities, sound recording, and motion pictures all established major new industries world-wide. Edison's inventions contributed to mass communication and, in particular, telecommunications. These included a stock ticker, a mechanical vote recorder, a battery for an electric car, electrical power, recorded music and motion pictures.
His advanced work in these fields was an outgrowth of his early career as a telegraph operator. Edison developed a system of electric-power generation and distribution^[5] to homes, businesses, and factories – a crucial development in the modern industrialized world. His first power station was on Pearl Street in Manhattan, New York.^[5]
