Dear Pandit Ravi Chivukula, Please answer this only once Friday evening comes along, when your post counts do not matter as much. This is more for your entertainment until then. Let's set up a poster in Fairfield to present your visit to the domed capital of the age of enlightenment of corn fields. I am sure a local book store or a unity church will have you come and do a presentation. Let's set up a charge. First few minutes free, then the following half hour is 150 usd. We could do remedial suggestions, like how to kick the Kali out of where one does not need it and how to usher in her love from that point on. I am sure the masked zebra could be the honorary greeter and do a little of his own wand waving too. Our PETA (Pandits Escape To America) program can release an opening at the bottom of the tall fences, so as not the spotlight and helicopters can witness bodies crawling up as fast as coconut trees in Kerala. These boys will be able to chant for you and the guests with remarkable influence. I am sure some of the MUM faculty will attend, but they may be wearing HD Sunglasses and hats, so it is best not to draw anymore attention on them when they walk in...although, Pandit Ravi Chivukula will know how to great them with open arms. Oh, a fire breather at the entrance will cleanse the atmosphere of any negativity. Might have to pay off the fire chief a few bucks. Buck can take care of that. He can supply the hay. Damsels? Did I hear you say damsels? Oh, lots of them. Some very smart ones too, just a bit of Kali Pimps roundup ready rounding reversal can swoop up that new muff. No match dot com needed there. Jyotish charts galore. Everyone is a bit tired of the usual pandits and I can guarantee success, and the guarantee will not cost too much for a willing host for this event, what do you think, Bevan? Pandit Ravi Chivukula, for the chart that will not fool ya. Pandit Ravi Chivukula, amounts to trust without the bull ya. Pandit Ravi Chivukula, gets the girls, not their moola.
Oh! I am so excited! Can't wait! Fairfield in the summer is great! I can be your co-ordinator, right, Panditji? ;) --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Ravi Chivukula <chivukula.ravi@...> wrote: > > Responses to Share, Uncleji and MJ > > Combining my responses because I don't have too many posts left > > *Share:* > > Yes I have gone into a new MD, I have talked about it in a previous post - > Saturn started in Jan 2010, lord of 2nd (speech) & 3rd (writing) in 5th > (creativity), the lord of 5th - Mars in 12th of spirituality.
