January 20, 2018

Our helmet woes never end. That’s because helmets are never on our head. Instead, it’s on our arm or tucked away in our vehicle’s luggage space.

Potty Mouth

We wonder if people who attended the recently held Kannada Sammelana were closing their noses when its President Prof. Chandrashekar Patil spoke? Because our MP Pratap Simha informed us that every time Prof. Patil opens his mouth foul smell comes out. Many have disapproved the MP’s language, but it was Prof. Patil who instigated this…
