The power struggle


Does having two sons result in an eventual split?

We saw it with the ambanis and now with the sena.Ok raj wasnot the direct progeny but he was as close as one. I remember reading an article once how godrej, tata, bajaj, hero-honda etc had only one successor. Interesting hum do hamaare do, but not two sons. So you should have one son and more than one daughter!!

Hehe. Raise two daughters =paradise; but again raise two sons and nothing is assured!!

What happened with Ambanis (abmanis own largest conglomerate of companies in india, next to TATA) is actually good for a socialist country like india. I am afraid of big organization , and the influence they have on govt.

BTW I was surprised by your concern on Shiv Sena split. I was kind of happy that it is going down the drain. Shiv Sena is one of the most staunch hindu fundamentalist organization. They killed many muslims during 1992 riots in bombay. Watch movie 'Bombay' uncensored version. The bad guys are Shiv sena guys.

BK is sounding like RN and her Boys are stupid stuff.

Girls are stupid,
girls are insane,
girls always wear the same,
girls always use their tears,
To get their work done by peers.

Oooh a T1 original.....

Toufeeq, what happens to any political party is not my concern. All are thugs everywhere.

BTW the biggest ijtema was in Bandra, Bombay. Bandra is the HQ of Shiv Sena.

just to reduce the bashing

Girls are sometimes good,
girls are sometimes helpful,
girls are always quite resourceful,

naaaah dont want to complete this one.

Girls, I love
Smile, they bring me

They care so they cry
Pure are their tears
mornings fresh dew like

Nice try with the poetry, t1 (and t2). How's this for a BK original?

For the Boys:

You act like we're insane,
But you're the ones who play games.
Putting on a front by being tough,
is it cool to treat us so rough?

For just a day step into our shoes,
and I guarantee that you will lose.
Try being a wife and a mother,
It's WAY easier than being a brother :p

HOLLA!

note: the last line of the poem is *dripping* with sarcasm...

For girls:

this an't anything true
girls never know what to do

if being sister, mother is tough
why you fight with yours enough

..........I can complete this if I geta a promise that i am not getting beaten up.

T 1 said...

See, half the time we are always so kind and thoughtful for the sisters that we dont try to complete a nasty poem. And then they presume that being a brother is easy!!!

Wow, I am impressed all this poetry I didnt know we had so many creative minds in the valley. Lemme give this a shot...

Girls and boys are two of a kind,
we cry about each other but we have the same mind,I recommend we stop wining and open our eyes, that with out each other we have no life...

hehe i like that

"hehe i like that"

N doesn't need other people to compliment her, she does a good job of it herself. LOL! Oh, and here's part 2 of the BK original:

How can you say it's not right,
To be a mom or sis and fight?
You don't know what our problems are,
Or what causes us to (sometimes) act bizarre...

I'll end this with one piece of advice,
Don't yell at your wife for burning the rice.
And if you want to do one special thing,
Make sure you buy her a nice diamond ring :-D

s. Toufeeq a. Ahmed said...

See N understands it.

Boys N' girls an't the same?
Always passing other the blame

All girls care, is ring or rice
there are other reasons to be nice

All boys care, is halo2 or Doom
Girls shud respect, and give us room

-- Toufeeq

Hear what NE has to say,
Hope we can follow her way,
Not taking it too far,
To open a can of worms ajar,

Lets all just move on together,
And not spend our time to decide who is better,
How much ever we may dispute,
And forever others opinion's we refute,
Lets all do our duties to our best,
And leave it to Allah to decide who is best,
He has created us different,
In roles that are quite independent.
What good would it be if I excelled,
And my counterpart was dispelled.

Sounds like 20+ somethings trying their hands at nursery rhymes. But the what the heck, POINT MADE!!!
