The Daily Observer: 25th June 2020

😎THE DAILY OBSERVER-22: 25 June 2020 / 03:00 ðŸ˜Ž

Jeevan chalne ka naam,chalte raho subah-ho-sham....

Closing ceremony of 24 Jun was performed by Alfred at around 0016 hrs this morning, after having gone into radio silence early in the day. He actually wanted to continue silence for a full 24 hrs but could not hold himself back any longer. He let pour his feelings and there was Ramu, all ears and ready with the healing touch. S Murali also made an appearance after hours of similar radio silence. Hitech Murali arrived with pearls of wisdom on how a wise man makes good use of torn pockets instead of whining about it. 

SBT wished Good Morning and Vidur joined in. Andrews managed to tuck all into bed at around 0130 hrs. So ended the 24th and began 25th. It was nice to see Nawnit and Mohinder gracing this site with their valuable inputs along with Sanjay Soi. Here's hoping they are seen and heard more often. There is now no doubt that we are all going through difficult times, one way or the other. If somebody like Satbir can get worked up, anyone can! His outburst early yesterday on the subject of political arguments holding sway on this site found support and his reaction became a little personal. Without going into details of the forgettable virtual scrap that ensued, the broad consensus was that there should be no gag order or limitation in this free space. But, as Alfred pointed out in his midnight sermon, there was an unusual silence that followed this discussion. Nippy was seen after quite some time and posted a humorous video on the looks of the Mandela statue put up in the US. This came after Shuboday- a news bulletin posted by Satbir. Sukhi posted a video and a joke. Suresh Dikshit updated on the latest antics of Grumpy. SBT stated that he was confused by the statements of the RM, VM and PM. Vidur noted that this was an important declaration worthy of discussion based on facts rather than individual biases.

S Murali and Sanjay Mishra seemed to be settling in for continuing the previous days arguments when Satbir made his impassioned plea for stopping it. A heated exchange which many along with Alfred tried to cool down without success followed. A display of luscious mangoes with the caption - "keep smiling" by SBT went unnoticed. So did an excellent one on Parsi humour in the Parliament by Alfred. Satbir also posted some good ones but the atmosphere was already sullied. Only way forward is to put all that down to Retrograde Mercury and move on.Time heals all.

Gyandev Maharaj has pointed out that it is up to each one of us to set the tone and tunev of messages on this site. If you want a change, be the change. Our Sant Namdev Poonavale also concurred. Brother Gurvinder has a simple formula- if u do not like a post, delete it. Joe Dhillon wondered if the rise in temperature in the Himalayas had an effect on group bonding. Nirbhye opined that he was not fond of seeing arguments all the time while Vish said he enjoyed seeing the fireworks as much as eye-candy. Shiv said it with songs and SBT also contributed a harmomica recital video. Mohinder Pratap dwelt long on the poser by Sanjay Mishra regarding refugees in Gujarat. This was well received and commended by Nirbhye,Navnit, Satish, Soi and Shiv among others. Gurvi reminded all that we were the same guys who had fought over chai and matthi and should continue in the same spirit. Katoch agreed. Chandan and Pushpender posted the same video by Khan, who seems the 'in thing' these days - a must-watch, this guy is too good! Nawnit posted a video on Noor from Iran. Tekan posted comments on posts that had taken his fancy. Shiv won an award for his singing performance - hearty congrats to him. Saxy posted plenty of jokes. Joe posted on the lowering popularity of a career in the Army and reasons thereof. And so the night went on till Alfred appeared at midnight! 






















Have a pleasant Thursday, all and  happy messaging
