Is recession over?

Hurray! The recession is behind us…. Forget the sensex, forget the GDP numbers, forget the inflation percentage and forget mooted media bytes on revival.
There are some barometers that have no numbers but are very vital in signifying positive mood in the economy.

There are pamphlets distributed outside IT campuses.

Eunuchs are running around signals and establishments demanding their katthas.

The side middle berth is getting removed in some of the trains.

Sun Pictures has started releasing movies which are lighter (Maasilamani) than ‘Thee’ and ‘Kadhalil Vizhundhen’.

Some of the above may not be welcome, but these are pointers to some sunshine.. may the brightness resume!
