ThaipusaMania

Ok, it is upon us. The 2nd of the top 3 happenings of the Yindian KLKalendar. The festival of Thaipusam. Following top spot Deepavalli and a bigger event than closely tied third of Panguni and Thimithi.

We hope you have your spokes sharpened, your bolts tightened, your washers washing and your milk cartons safely ensconced within that 14 footer lorry you had to loan for the event. If you are aiming for a 12 am - 3 am departure, smart move. If you are doing the 6pm - 9 pm departure, good luck to you la brudda.

The KLKillahs may or may not be at one or both of the temples doing what we always do. Attending to KLKavadis, the single ones will be making eyes at KLKannu Kuttis and paying homage to the warrior of warriors, Karthikeyan.

As we might be busy with our various duties and ad hoc preparations, this is an appeal to all our KLKlanites to enjoy the marvels of documenting this important happening of the year by sending in photos and videos of the event. Put your digicams and video cams and phones to good use. Show us the glory and the numbnuts who spoil it for everyone. Be it an official or a devotee. We await your materials for a post-Thaipusam post.

Also, be on the lookout for our fellow KLKommunity members who insist on treating a holy event like their Halloween. Photos / Vids of these select entities are much desired and you will be credited accordingly in participating in your virgin KLKulling. A cash reward for the best photograph or video recording is also contemplated and we will let you know if the response is good enough. If however, you are a vendor of the privacy act and you in actual fact are afraid of getting caught in the act of being Photographer of the Year, do realize that most cameras have up to 8X zoom these days. Stay a safe distance and snap away.

Now, we close. And here's a shout-out to Praba to have a splendid procession tomorrow. Dance like you have happy feet my friend. I'll leave you with our very own KLKillah last year, and this year.
