Nephew's gem of wisdom

So, I was chatting with my nephew at work, and he happened to come up with this old gem, a Kannada saying even I had forgotten / barely seen people use.

(9:41:11 AM) bharath maniyal: ha ha... beda bidu... nam indian pourusha avaru withstand madala, sumne yake gubbi mele bramhastra?:-)

I couldn't help laughing. And when I stopped, I found it a pleasant feeling to know that the next generation of kannadigas will carry the torch forward.

Hehe, I was supposed to go unleash my pourusha in Google HQ, which I was telling him was close to where I live.

Why I should have, is another story altogether, let's not go there ! ;)
