Post-UNMIN chow min

ASS


It all started with Jhallu Babu yawning away at the Nepal Tourism Year official launch at the stadium. Then Ram Chunderji started nodding off on candid camera, and at one point snored away with his mouth open. Not that it wasn't a rousing ceremony with imitation North Korean mass gymnastics and speeches galore. But the stress and sleepless nights seem to be taking their toll on both future prime minister wannabes. The two admitted later that the sound of ultralights had a hypnotic effect. Maybe. The Mule, for one, is sure NTY 2011 will be a roaring success as long as our leaders go to sleep and don't bother us too much for the rest of the year.

Now that UNMIN has left, what we are left with is chow min politics and no one to blame. The Maoist army is formally coming under the Special Committee at a grand ceremony on Saturday at Shaktikhor. Comrade Fearsome had quite a lot of convincing to do to get his recruits to agree, and his line of argument made a lot of sense. He told them, "Look I already declared that you guys were under the Special Committee two years ago and that made no diff, so what's the big deal?" Such is the Chairman's oratorical skills that did the trick. But guess who nearly sabotaged Saturday's function, none other than Come-red JN who tried to convinc PKD the handover should be done when he became PM and not by Madhav ("Lame Duck") Nepal. But someone else in the nick of time stepped in to sabotage the sabotage.

Now that UNMIN has left, there is no reason why we can't revert to accepted vocabulary instead of the laboured politically-correct jargon intended to appease the Baddies in 2006. Here is the new glossary:

When will our leaders start thinking about the people and the country instead of their party and personal interest ? Shame on you. Wake up soon, otherwise time will not wait long for any one of you.

What a phenomenal time sink? I turn left,  photo of Prachanda, the awesome, I turn right again him, up and down everywhere his photo!

But when I read different comments he is just a mojo stupid who wants to be a big fish in a little pond.

Anyway, Ass had a real knack in the previous outlet. This one is also not bad. Please carry on for everybody's 3min. pleasure.

If that guy who gave a 'chatkan' a k a slap to Khanal would have changed his chatkan into 'taksing', would have received more wah-wah from the crowd. Next time do not get caught!?!

 Dear browsers,

I remind you herewith that the following lines have nothing to do with what Ass has narrated here above. It is simply the explication of the world 'mojo' that I used above in my rundown, and FYI it has become very colloquial around the business circle. Those who ain't interested in what happens in great business hubs and their tendencies please do not read them. Because I do not want to be again taxed of speaking about things that do not interest everybody.

'To be or not to be mojo!'

An Aussie, Marshal Goldsmith, Executive Coach of Enterprises and the author of the word 'Mojo' is a sort of discoverer of skillful and apt CEOs for some Enterprises in need of rigorous and smart execs. He has his own personal methods to unearth a man or a woman in a million with different characteristics of those guys to be selected for the enviable and plum job, and who are apt to be called mojo. Whereas those other guys who are lacking the same, albeit desiring to be a big fish in a small pond to devour other smaller ones remain ignored amidst the anonymous ones. (I ask myself if that guy Goldsmith didn't pick the word from the French 'Mojo Jojo', mostly used in circus for a monkey that does different prowess.

As of now, his definition of those who are considered to be mojo are ordinary fellows who possess 5 things in their life and they are as follows:1) Good health 2) Wealth 3) Friendly relationship amongst the colleagues of working place 4) Happiness and 5) Finder assiduous of meaning to their happiness.

Simply put, without a good health nothing is possible. A middle class who earns his living decently, who has a fine interpersonal relationship can have ample time to focus his attention on happiness assuming the same in harmony with his kith and kin. It is up to him to decide whether what he is doing does procure him a sort of cozy feel, and at the same time he finds it meaningful.

All the same, mojo is defined to be a positive attitude or spirit to what you are supposed to be doing. And it begins on the inside of every individual and radiates outside.

You can notice amongst your colleagues of working place some have always positive attitude and show a sort of motivated and spontaneous elan in even a very odd situation, whereas there are others who are cynical and negative in almost all situations. The difference ain't what is going on in the surroundings but what is going on inside that individual. The former has mojo the latter is deprived of.

For now, you possess a yardstick to find out and put a rubber stamp or a tag on him who is worth steering the rudder of somewhat adrift ocean liner a k a Nepal, thus possessing the quintessence leadership qualities. The rest is history because they disqualify themselves as 'mojo stupid' by their acts.
