The tragic story of the nallennai

For those of you who dunno tamil, nallennai is a type of oil. Now for those of u whod unno tamil, you wont understand this blog so shoo :P
Ever wondered how it got its name? I thot about it and this is what i think history luks like here:
Once upon a time, nallennai was just called ennai...thr was tis one particular ennai bottle that was a don in a ennai area (enna area? ennai area..yaess yaess)
So on its deathbed, this ennai's grandson asked 'Thatha...neenga nallennaiya...kettennaiya?'
To which the grandpa ennai replied 'Theriliyaee paaaa' and evaporated.
Then lotsa ennais gathered around feeling sad abt the ennai passing away and the grandson realizd 'Mebbe my thatha was nallennai'
From that day forth, he went around saying 'naanga elaam nallennai'
And who do you think survived the test of the fittest? Nallennais :D
