Tempo bhai-sahib:

I looked very hard for my name in there, but could not find it mentioned! All three of us are shattered (the Janitor, the Lion, and the detective). For sure, I was expecting that I will at least make an “honorable mention” among the various ills of the world. Well, in order to be fair to hamidm and the rest of the crowds in there – let me provide here the postscript that you definitely should have included:

PS:

Dear Allah,

I wanted to save the most difficult problem till the end, so here it is – please help me and the rest of the chowkies deal with this character BeeJay. (And in view of the complexity of this problem, we don’t mind if you take extra time!)

(1) May this character (in all its manifestations) attain the wisdom that he occasionally displays – but on a permanent basis!

(2) May this character (in all its manifestations) display the same objectivity that he has occasionally demonstrated on issues – but on all issues!

(3) May this character (in all its manifestations) display the same compassion that he has demonstrated toward some underdogs – but to all underdogs!

(4) May this character (in all its manifestations) develop a high level of humility consistent with his admittedly very faulty and limited level of knowledge and experience of the “real” world!

(5) May this character (in all its manifestations) stop misusing your given power of words to get carried away and to end up hurting fellow human beings (one lady author, in particular) – and so not have to feel remorseful afterwards!

Thank you, Allah, for dealing with this tough cookie – this hard “seed” to crack!

you forgot the real address:

al-Laath@sufyaantech.com

and if that doesnt work then her estranged sister al-Manaath@sufyaantech.com (may her secret be sanctified!) should do the trick. Uzzah been proclaimed dead by some german madman long time back so dont go there.. come to think of maybe she had been the real thing, all along.




Note: this post is not for the humor impaired so you know, blah blah.... :-)
