Kanna, athu thamilu-la ezhuthinathu. Tamil font install pannu appangattiyum padikka varum. The translitration: "madura-gang thayaraguthu polayirukke"
Ramanujam daughters name is Asha- mike mandayan is her brother.
I still don't get that Tamil teachers name RK? One who mocks up Vasan and used to quote tamil amma's famous say:
inbam inbam illakkaname
anbhai katrittal "araikkanume"
and he makes the hand gesture of griding idli mavu. Vasan undoubtedly turns red.
He used even crack jokes like:
When silk smita came for a textile shop opening function to her surprise there was no cloths in the shop. when she inquires about it the owner says neenga oru aattam pottu athula avundthu vizharatha vachuthaan kada nadaththanumnu"...
this for a co-ed class full of pre-teen girls, very naughty vathyar. His fond student is Spurgen Njanamuthu..he used to call him boja-maharaja.
our naughty thahta-VTN's science class begins like this, page 64 omitted, page 72 excluded page 80 deleted and page 94 not needed... and he got irritated with Kalthoon- Sangari and said" oru kuthu kuthina appadiya sevuthukulle poyiduve"....my God I got the real meaning now, thatha-vukku antha vayasula enna thenavettu...
but of all my favorite is Ramanadan sir a good man.
I can almost recall most of the names
Chokkalingam, Srikumar, Anadapadbanaban, Bhaskar (porkupine hair) and a fellow who comes from sakkarai patti who always comes late, Sridhar, Dhamodaran, Thiyagarajan, Karthikeyan, Srinivasan(leftan), sweater Pandiyan, cricket V Srini, Thrinavukkarasu-ukkum ponga, Samuvel, Leader-Lakshmanan, tina-tina-munim endru sonavan kuttaiyaga kannadi pottu irruppan, Ratnavel, Thangapandi, plus four of us..of course.
more as it arises...you people can add to the list...we got some of the girls name... can add more if you remember
Asha, Bhuvanesvari, Nancy prabha, Subbalakshmi, Srividya, Sangari, Shyamala,
Bharat feels so sad that we dont know any of the girls, we may come across some time in our life...
It is just like the film uthiripp-pookal.. after long time we are coming together to live on those ever green memories...
enna Siva sathath-thaye kaanom...come on join the jyoti....

I think I remember most othe guys' names :
The Short Maths guy - Rajagoplan, I personally this guy was a genius but rather in the wrong profession i.e teaching. He would do good as an accountant or data modelling guy for Wall St.
The tamil teacher - Swami Subramanyam ( we used to call him SoSo), which he hated.
The Social studies guy - A. Narayanan ( he actually had a crush on Praba; well most of us did -)):
Finally I would never forget VTN, man I had so many exchanges with that guy he screwed by not giving an admission after the 10th. I wish I could scoot over to these simpler days
On the personal front I am married and live in Pleasanton CA ( a city about 30 miles east of San Francisco) and work in a company called Macrovision in the Silicon Valley. My son is 10 years old and is one of those prototypical ABCD. Here is a recent snap of all of us togehter
Keep in touch..

And another guy - Giant (Srinivasan) from Collector office side; (I am unable to recollect the image of Spurjun!!) ;
Then Srikanth SS Colony - Srikanth has a sister 1 yr senior to us in school - her name is Meena - now in Dubai - had a tragic incident of loosing her 11 th std studying son- (The guy walked in sleep and fell down from balcony of their high-raised flat in Dubai and only wacthman could tell to the parents next day morning..they had just one issue and now her parents are in Dubai - This happened early this year - Since we are family friends for about 40+ years, I came to know of this);
