Uvula and others

  • This nagging problem about my son’s long uvula:
    Uvula is the fleshy hanging thingy that is present in the roof of the
    mouth at the back of the tongue. Suddenly, i see that it is elongated,
    that it almost touches his tongue!!! Woah! It just freaks me out!
    I quickly google it and find the actual word for this fleshy thingy
    (uvula) and why this happens. I couldnt find any child-specific reason.
    So, i try with my neighbour aunty who always has some ancient herbal or
    ayurvedic or just a good diet advice up her sleeve that usually solves
    the problem. Though she did say ullikai paste with honey was good for
    this, i had no clue what ullikai was or where to get hold of it from.
    Anyway, i go to the dr to find out that is probably happens due to cold.
    Plenty of warm water and gargling with salt and water. Great!

    I have been getting these emails in my inbox, which have announced that
    me, my car, my email address and much more have been selected to win
    huge amounts in pounds, dollars and Rupees  from the royalty in England,
    some Nigerian official, BMW, Yahoo, Microsoft and many more… Some
    mails even come from my friends’ inbox saying that they urgently need
    money as they are stranded without a passport in some weird city in
    England… Pity, i have to mark it as spam not reply to claim my prize
    in dollars or pounds or Rupees….
  • Mystery of the yellow cup:
    I wanted to pet a cat as there seems to be a huge rat in my garden. I
    leave a cup of milk that the cat cleaned it up the other day. Yesterday,
    i leave a yellow cup filled with milk in anticipation of the cat
    returning so that it will keep the rat at bay. Today, the yellow cup is
    missing… I am sure the cat was interested in only the milk… in
    whatever cup. Is the rat upto no good by removing my yellow cup so that
    the cat wont return?
