(I am breaking from my blogging rule of "no malayalam" for this blog)
A phone call at 4 in the evening
me:Hello.....
female voice from the other end: Sir, this is from bank X.
(Hint on bank X
Conversation between two mafia heads, both sworn enimies, with gun pointing at each other
head 1: blah blah blah
head 2: (getting angry) BLAH blah
head 1: I see
Head 2: (louder) I see
Head 1: I.......
Head 2 shoots Head 1 in the chest. Head 2 shoots back.
End of story
)

she: Oh!!!! ethu church aaayirunno???
me: alla... athalla.... enthe FATHERinte aduthaaano samsaarikkaan udeeshikkunathu?
(Stupid me. But she understood)
(Which makes me wonder whether there are any other pair of words with one word having two different meanings in one language and its transilation to another language gives the other word with two different meanings which are same as that of the first word in the first language. leave that)
she:(lol) oooohhh!! achan eppool varum?

me: enthuvaa parayande
she:new investment plan, blah blah economics blah blah commerce blah banking blah blah black sheep blah blah investment
me: okay
she:thank you.
hangs up.(that is right no welcome)
This conversation got me thinking
Why did she talk so much?
may be she is a good innocent conversationalist.
Or mabbe she was saying all those things as business tactic to make sure i talk to my father about the new investment plan, blah blah economics blah blah commerce blah banking blah blah black sheep blah blah investment
(I did.)
Or mabbe it is that i dont think the world out there is innocent. It is crooked and manipulative.Everywhere there are traps.
The smiling face you see there. The compliment you get here. The criticism there. It may all be part of someone trying to bend you.I hate to drag Fountainhead into this, but i have to. someone like Toohey.
I am pretty sure that i didn't think like this in the past. may be i have discovered the truth. may be i am being a pessimist
Comments are hereby solicited on whether the world is crooked or not.

My first impression on reading the blog was the starting is fun,but later on you seem to loose the grip on your topic and was like beating around the bush. The conversation in the end means a little as to what you wanted to say i suppose.May be for the sake of blogging you include the conversation,i don't know.
The world is definitely crooked,even today i happened as my brother thanks to his innocence lost 250rs to an absolute stranger.
F**k man, what a stupid comment,this is my best.
absolutely great comment.
me too found the later part uninteresting. but as my goal was to give you an idea of the length of the conversation.a formal conversation shouldn't have been that long.
lmao..nothing else..had fun
world is crooked ! dats wot i alwz hear.
mayb it is...but a lot depends on perception too.
anyweys i dont c life as a war ' ME vs WORLD.
simply coz i don thnk de opponent iant strong enuf.
btwn ....i shld say worlds treating me pretty good.
everytime i lose somethng , usually money ...guys around were
sweet & honest enuf 2 return it.
