Who is a Pokemom? A nickname given by a child to a Mom who is caring and doting !!!!!
You really believed that? Not Pocket Mom's ( Monsters ) either .
What ever it means, right now its just the apt name for my blog - at least my friends seem to think so.
Some one asked me a long time ago , do you blog? I said what? whats Blog? I said there is nothing called blog, thats gibberish. I asked is that an acronym ?
Yes ! Big Load Of Gossip. I like that definition . A tech savvy way of gossiping.
So here I am BLOG - ing .
Has any one asked you this question "where are you going?" and when you are not in a mood to answer or if you want to say some place exotic and mysterious then you come up with "Timbuktu"
There is actually a city by that name , located in the African nation of Mali, near the Niger river. Although we associate the city with distance and mystery today , it was well known in the 14th century. I have always been intrigued by this place but have never been there.
Is there any one amongst you who has been intrigued by this place or has visited this place?
I came acroos this name timbuktu when I was using this remote desktop software named timbuktu. Intrigued by the name, I looked up and came to know there is actually a place...
ReplyDeleteLet me know when you want to visit Timbuktu........
ReplyDeleteFunny, a place that all of us know by name, but know so little about. So, I too looked it up. Apparently the word "Timbukto" aka "Tombouctou" has evolved from a name that meant "the lady with the big navel" Now I'd say there's some intrigue behind that story.... :D
ReplyDeleteI've never been there, but have used the phrase myself. Maybe we should plan a discovery trip to Timbukto
