ಕೀಟಾಣುವಿನ ಮೇಲೆ ಉಕ್ಕಿದ ಪ್ರೀತಿ!!

ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಕೀಟಾಣುಗಳೆಂದರೆ ನಾವು ಮುಖ ಸಿಂಡರಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ. ಅವುಗಳನ್ನು ನಿವಾರಿಸಲು ಏನೇನು ಸರ್ಕಸ್ಸು ಮಾಡಬೇಕೊ ಎಲ್ಲ ಮಾಡುತ್ತೇವೆ. ಆದರೆ ಸುಶ್ರುತ ದೊಡ್ಡೇರಿಯವರಿಗೆ ತಮ್ಮ ಹಲ್ಲುಗಳೆಡೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ನೆಲಸಿ ದಂತಕ್ಷಯಕ್ಕೆ ಕಾರಣವಾದ ಕೀಟಾಣುಗಳ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಪ್ರೀತಿ ಉಕ್ಕಿದ್ದಕ್ಕೆ ಕಾರಣವಾದರೂ ಏನು?

ಮನೆಗೆ ಬಂದವನೇ ನನಗೆ ಈ ಪರಿ ನೋವುಂಟು ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿರುವ ಹಲ್ಯಾವುದು ಅಂತ ಕನ್ನಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ನೋಡಿಕೊಂಡೆ. ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನ ರಸ್ತೆ ಕಂಡಂತಾಗಿ ಬೆಚ್ಚಿಬಿದ್ದೆ. ಕಪ್ಪು ಬಣ್ಣ. ಅಲ್ಲಲ್ಲಿ ಪಾತ್‌ಹೋಲ್‌ಗಳು. ಓಹೋ, ಈ ಗುಂಡಿಯನ್ನೆಲ್ಲಾ ಮುಚ್ಚಿಸುವಷ್ಟರಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ‘ಸರ್ಕಾರ’ ಮಗುಚಿಬೀಳುವುದಂತೂ ಗ್ಯಾರೆಂಟಿ ಅಂತ ಲೆಕ್ಕ ಹಾಕಿದೆ. ಆದರೂ ಈ ತಿಂಗಳ ಬಜೆಟ್ಟಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಒಂದೆರಡಾದರೂ ಗುಂಡಿ ತುಂಬಿಸದಿದ್ದರೆ ನಾನೆಂಬ ಪ್ರಜೆಗೆ ಊಟ ಮಾಡುವುದಕ್ಕೂ ತೊಂದರೆಯಾಗುವುದು ನಿಶ್ಚಿತವಿತ್ತು. ‘ಸಧ್ಯಕ್ಕಿರಲಿ’ ಅಂತ ಒಂದು ಪೇನ್‌ಕಿಲ್ಲರ್ ಮಾತ್ರೆ ನುಂಗಿದವನೇ ನಾಳೆ ದಂತವೈದ್ಯರನ್ನು ಕಾಣುವುದೇ ಸೈ ಅಂತ ನಿರ್ಧರಿಸಿದೆ. ರೂಂಮೇಟಿಗೂ ಹೇಳಿದೆ. ಅವನು ‘ಗುಡ್ ಗುಡ್’ ಅಂದ. ಕಷ್ಟ ಪಟ್ಟು ಊಟ ಮಾಡಿ ಮಲಗಿದೆ. ನೋವಿನ ಮಧ್ಯೆಯೇ ಚೂರುಪಾರು ನಿದ್ರೆ.

Why is a kannada link on the main page ? I thought there were seperate links for that ?

Why should posts in Indian languages be relegated to a separate area? If we have them all in the main page, it makes DP more vibrant. Even though I don’t read more than 3 Indian scripts, I for one would like to see all those Indian language posts on the main page.

Sure….lets have them all on the main page. It does not make it colorful but just crowded. I am guessing most of us come to read english posts. I have great respect for blogs in Indian languages but I am not good at reading them…but having to ask folks to keep scrolling back and forth to find a new english post is really not user freindly.

Sri, This was discussed a year back and it was an editorial decision to have separate pages for Indic posts.

BP: Count me out of that “most of us.” I come to DP to see what is happening in the Desi blogosphere.

Even Indian language posts (with a brief English introduction) help in understanding what’s keeping the minds of desis occupied these days.
