Srivaishnavan and Samashrayanam

Day before yesterday was a remarkable day for me as a Srivaishnavan. Yes, the day which turned myself into a Srivaishnavan. The day on which Pancha SamakAram was performed on me by the Acharyan. While I was searching bits and bytes to explain about what it is, I found this self-explanatory link here and ,fyi, the narrator/author is my elder brother ;-) and Yes, we three, including my younger brother, got transformed into a Srivaishnavan, the very same day.

Am I getting popular in orkut?

Orkut, an online friends network is one of the popular web-applications of its kind. They recently added a feature that shows you the count of people who viewed your profile. Two days back, I started hunting for known faces and quickly added around 12+ and still 6 are yet to accept my requests. Now when I opened my profile, voila, see it your self.
