Silliest conversation

My silliest conversation which has stood the test of time. Mosquitoes have become ubiquitous and are slowly growing larger ( My prediction - they would become our national "ugly" bird in a five/six decades and aircrafts suffering mosquito strieks during takeoff and landing are distinct possibilities) At nightfall, as an occasional visitor, a comment on mosquito is highly likely whether it be Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi or Mumbai. General comment is, " How intelligent mosquitoes are.Aren't they? They always hum close to our e ars." My response, " I am not sure. We do not have ears on our hands and legs to check whether they keep quiet there." This wisecrack is a perfect kill joy. It ensures no "hum" topics for couple of days.
