These Credit Card companies...

Not so long ago, one used to take pains in doing the rounds of all the "phoren" banks in India to get hold of a credit card... but thanks to the "boom" in the economy, the tide has turned and it's the turn of the banks now to hunt you down... One normally can associate himself with getting at least 2-3 credit card calls in a fortnight (thanks to your friend referrers)... Out of desperation, credit card companies has gone to the extent of just about issuing cards to all... and here's a classic example where a Cat (yesh, that meow meow animal only) got a credit card from a bank!!

    This is not the first time it has happened RC... Long back in 2004 itself one incident of this type has happened that too with warning of the applicant that it is for a dog....

    It is easy to get credit cards in US for cats and dogs rather than getting credit cards here in India...

    The security system is much better here ...

Ariyaatha pillakku choriyumbol ariyum!

As a kid/teenager, my only source of information to learn malayalam was Manorama Publications' Balaram, a children's fortnightly and my granny. I still vividly remember how she used to teach me the basics of malayalam whenever I come to Kerala on vacations. My granny was also a great source of amazement for me as she used malaylam proverbs or the so called "pazham chollu" every now and then. These proverbs, though small in length and use, had deep insights! Though I can read/write Malayalam today, thx to Balarama and my granny, I used to miss her proverbs a lot. But not anymore!! Thanks to this Wikipedia link , forwarded to me by Vinay
