-Tusli Das
Chinta Aisee Dakini, Kat Kaleja Khaye

Dheere Dheere Re Mana, Dheere Sub Kutch Hoye

Baby It's Cold Outside - Tom Jones & Cerys Matthews
I really can't stay (Baby, it's cold outside)
I've got to go 'way (Baby, it's cold outside)
This evening has been (I've been hopin' that you'd drop in)
So very nice (I'll hold your hands, they're cold as ice)
My mother will start to worry (Hey beautiful, what's your hurry)
And father will be pacing the floor (Listen to that fireplace roar)
So really, I'd better scurry (Beautiful, please don't hurry)
Well, maybe just one drink more (Put some music on while I pour)
The neighbors might think (Baby, it's bad out there)
Say, what's in this drink (No cabs to be had out there)
I wish I knew how (Your eyes are like starlight now)
To break this spell (I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell)
I oughtta say no, no, no sir (You mind if I move in closer)
At least I'm gonna say that I tried (And what's the sense in hurting my pride)
I really can't stay (Oh baby, don't hold out)
Oh, but it's cold outside
I simply must go (Baby, it's cold outside)
The answer is no (Baby, it's cold outside)
The welcome has been (So lucky that you dropped in)
So nice and warm (Look out the window at that storm)
My sister will be suspicious (Your lips look delicious)
My brother will be there at the door (Waves upon a tropical shore)
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious (Gosh, your lips are delicious)
Well, maybe just a half a drink more (Never such a blizzard before)
I've got to get home (Baby, you'll freeze out there)
Say, lend me a comb (It's up to your knees out there)
It's really been grand (I thrill when you touch my hand)
Oh, but don't you see (How can you do this thing to me)
There's bound to be talk tomorrow (Well, think of my lifelong sorrow)
At least there will be plenty implied (If you caught pneumonia and died)
I really can't stay (Get over that hold out)
Oh, but baby it's cold outside
I've got to go 'way (Baby, it's cold outside)
This evening has been (I've been hopin' that you'd drop in)
So very nice (I'll hold your hands, they're cold as ice)

HOW TO SPEAK AUSTRALIAN ( I am just learning )
"If your Sheila thinks you're a bludger, buckle down and cut the macaroni."
It sounds like a food fight in the making, or a coded message meant for a secret agent. But, no, it is an example of Australia's way with words. Here's what an Australian mean:
Sheila: girlfriend
Bludger: a lazy-bones or a loser
Macaroni: nonsense
"You're a wimp if you're suss of bush tucker."
Hey, same to you, pal! Actually, it is not such an unreasonable assertion, for those well-versed in Australian slang. Here's what an Australian mean:
Suss: Suspicious
Bush tucker: Native foods; home cookin'
"Everyone likes to find a partner who is fair dinkum."
Those who succeed probably don't need a grasp of Aussie slang, or any other lexicon, for that matter. Here's what an Australian mean:
Fair dinkum: Good, true, honest, genuine
"The sudden appearance of a bunch of fives is usually a bad sign."
In Australian slang, these fives aren't the kind you can spend or take to the bank. Here's what an Australian mean:
A bunch of fives: a fist
"Despite the carefully tended morsels on the barbie, a few guests ended up feeling crook."
If you had no grasp of Australian slang, you might think they made off with the good silver. But here's what an Australian mean:
Crook: Ill
Barbie: a barbecue or grill a fist
"No proper kitchen is complete without a billy for those late-afternoon pick-me-ups."
Heavens! It's not what you think! In Australian slang, such a statement is as innocent as pie. Here's what an Australian mean:
Billy: a small tin bucket with a handle, used for brewing tea.
"Life in the big smoke leads some to speculate that the planet is bound for the Black Stump."
Especially during rush hour, you say - or those with a grasp of Aussie slang might say. Here's what an Australian mean:
Big smoke: big city
Black Stump: a mythical landmark emblematic of the end of civilization.
"A mate might be fair dinkum or just part of a conventional greeting."
The trick is to know which is which in Australian slang. Here's what an Australian mean:
Mate: A truly good friend or the recipient of the widely used everyday greeting: "G'Day, mate"
Fair dinkum: Genuine, true, honest
"A doer will saddle up and then give it the herbs."
It's not a recipe for seasoned horsemeat, but a slice of everyday Australian slang. Here's what an Australian mean:
Doer: A hard worker
Saddle up: Get ready for work
Give it the herbs: Go faster; accelerate
"After a prang, some workers might decide a sickie is in order."
That's clear as a bell Down Under, where fluency in Australian slang is a must. Here's what an Australian mean:
Prang: a minor car accident; a fender-bender
Sickie: a day taken off from work, but not necessarily because of illness
"A bottler often receives lashings of praise, but still may become ropeable."
What sounds like a reference to the rodeo scene actually is Australian slang applicable to a variety of arenas. Here's what an Australian mean:
Bottler: an excellent performer
Lashings: large quantities; plenty
Ropeable: angry or irritable
"The boomer oil might turn out to be no more than bull's wool."
Easy for an Aussie to say! Australian slang is loaded with vivid expressions. Here's what an Australian mean:
Boomer: large or huge
Oil: news
Bull's wool: an unlikely story; baloney
"A dag might be likely to carry on and on about a bad trot."
It sounds as if somebody picked the wrong racehorse. In Australian slang, however, the expression might be heard on or off the track. Here's what an Australian mean:
Dag: a boring or dull person. Bad trot: a run of bad luck
"The best time for some spine bashing might be right after frolicking with the kids on the slippery dip."
It's not as bad as it sounds. This is a case in which it might be wise to make sure your audience understands Australian slang before dropping such a line. Here's what an Australian mean:
Spine bashing: resting
Slippery dip: a child's slide
"No esky should be without a supply of fixings for sangers, including those leftover snags."
What sounds like a mouthful is actually a reasonable statement, spiced with Australian slang. Here's what an Australian mean:
Esky: A brand name for a portable portable icebox; often used generically
Sangers: Sandwiches
Snags: Sausages
"One way to avoid yakka is to wag it."
Hint: All yakka and no play is no way to spend time in Australia. That's why some decide to wag it. Then again, Australians can appreciate the virtues of hard yakka; someone put in long yakka hours creating the colorful Aussie lingo. Here's what an Australian mean:
Yakka: hard or heavy work
Wag it: to be truant or play hooky
"A lair might end up like a shag on a rock."
Then again, a lair could turn out to be the life of the party in Australia. It all depends on whether the lair puts on too many airs. Here's what an Australian mean:
Lair: A flashy dresser or a person who is behaving ostentatiously
Like a shag on a rock: totally alone
"Don't slam the boot with such force, or the bumper bars will fall off and the duco will peel."
Australians can drive you crazy when they talk about their cars, because they traffic in some odd words. Here's what an Australian mean:
Boot: Car trunk
Bumper bars: Car fenders
Duco: Car paint
"Should a bluey start a blue with a bloke, anything could happen."
In such an event, any reasonable Australian would prepare to stand clear, unless the "blue" happened to be the alternate definition in Australian slang. Here's what an Australian mean:
Blue: an argument or a mistake
Bluey: a nickname for any red-headed male
Bloke: a person, usually a male

Take a deep breath - Skype
Which IM do you use?
When it comes to chating with one's friends/family staying far apart, I went through many transitions.
My first one was yahoo messenger. An IM which had a lot to offer and went into many upgrades to offer more but so far I liked it only for text messaging. It offers(ed?) a group chat where one can join to various Public rooms created by user or by system and interact people with desired interest. Actually those rooms are created based on a number of factors like Region, Religion, Sports, Music, Movies, Dating, Belief, Education etc.
Then I tried Rediff bol which I didn't find much of interest and has very less users across globe so limits the scope to interact with more number of people.
Third one would be MSN messenger now, Windows Live Messenger which I find very user friendly and attractive as far as GUI is concerned. Minus points for this could be, this is not used as widely as yahoo messenger and one can not leave (or migrate all) their friend's group. Though now the Windows Live meessenger gives you the option of communicating with your friends who are using yahoo messenger as well. But again it limits the possibilities and speed of course which is number one priority in IM.
Next I hooked up with Google Talk or GTALK which impressed me a lot with its quality of PC-to-PC voice calls. You can talk to anyone else for free who's online and has the Google Talk client with no lag as you must have experinced in case of other IMs. Integration with Gmail, Gmail has chat built right in, so you can easily switch between emailing and instant messaging with your contacts. There is much more that i can talk about GTALK but these are already here. I just love the simplicity it offers with wide range of usability.
If you like to know about some other jabber clients check this out.
Last and latest one, I used Skype and if I have to give points out of 100, I'll give it at least 100. Skype is software that lets you use your computer and internet connection to communicate with anyone, anywhere in the world.
>>The Best quality of Free calls and video calls- When you and the person you're calling are both on Skype, the calls are free. Oh, and video calls are free too.
>>Call to International phones and mobiles at pretty cheap rates per minute.
>>Instant message when it's not a good time to talk.
>>Yes, I could give it 200 out of 100 but i deducted some points for its complexity and the memory it eats while running.
Till now I have been using every thing for free but I am thinking to spend on skype now. You might want to check out the Connection fee for SkypeOut calls and call-rates for different countries.
Please share your own experience with these or any other IM too. I know there are a lot of them out there.

Help me
Help me
Oh I dont know

Purple haze was all in my eyes
Dont know if its day or night
Youve got me blowin, blowin my mind
Is it tomorrow or just the end of time?
Who knows?
Help me
Yeah
Come on now
Tell me
Tell me
Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things dont seem the same

Bang Bang - Kill Bill
I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down.
Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down.
Music played, and people sang
Just for me, the church bells rang.
Now he's gone, I don't know why
And till this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie.
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down...
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
