US Return...

Monday, October 31, 2005
A couple of months back i received a forward listing all the funny things a foreign return guy/gal wud do while coming to India. It had some things like 1.Cribbing over the pollution and dust in Chennai 2.Drinking mineral water 3. Starting a conversation with "Anga ellam..." etc.Last week my frend SAT(ish) returned from USA for his vacation. I expected atleast 1 or 2 of the 21 items listed in that forward. i thought he wud call us Dude instead of Machi, he wud like to have Pizza instead of the chat items we usually have, but nothing happened. He was the same old guy i studied with a year ago except for his French beard. He has always been an inspiration for us and a role model on how to behave, still he is. But i have some friends who go there and pick up some fake accent and put some vethu scene, adhennavo therila pasanga/ponnunga velinadu ponaa aale maaridraanga ya , except for a few like the one i mentioned above....
