A Letter to Joy Radhe

Dear Joy Radhe,


By the time you read this, and understand it, I will, in orders of probability be

  1. Extremely obese and unable to move
  2. In hospital
  3. Dead


However, I think..and am fairly certain... that I am the one who gifted you the very 1st book of your life. Or at the very least, your 1st non-infantile book.


Yep, I was the one who gifted you that book introducing you to the Hindu gods and goddesses. Let's face it, as a part of the Sashmal clan and being a progeny of....well your mother.....I have no hope whatsoever of you being an atheist, agnostic or like me a Pastafarian (VIVA LA PASTA btw).


 So, you might as well enjoy your gods and goddesses while you can.


Now since at the time of gifting the said book, your language repertoire was more or less confined to 'googoo' and 'gaga' and your activities were restricted to eating, crapping and crying [to be honest, those are pretty much my activities too] the vision of the said book elicited much amusement in the Esteemed Nutters of the Parental Persuasion...you don't remember them, they were/are complete and total loonies.



Anyway, it was also at this point that I scared the crap out of you. Sorry about that


But, in my defense, it was in response to a wanker [if you don't know the meaning of this term, go ahead and ask your school teacher or your grandpas :-)] from Norwich City FC missing an easy goal against the unmentionables from Manchester.


Now you see, there are lots of things your elders will tell you not to do. There are way too many restrictions already I am sure.


But, since I don't consider myself as your elder (only your heavier) let me tell you


"Do whatever the hell you feel like doing, you only live once.......and anyway your parents have done them all too, irrespective of whatever they preach now"


Bear in mind though that there are, however, a few things no decent, civilized, intelligent, sensible, sentient, level-headed, well-informed, salubrious human being should do.
 
  1. Don't kill an animal (humans and mosquitoes exempted)
  2. Don't torture an animal (humans exempted)
  3. Don't steal small (if you wanna steal big, steal huge...i.e. join politics)
  4. Remember that coconut oil is not for ingestion
  5. Never support the unmentionables from Manchester (of course I mean the Satan worshipers not the moon botherers)


So, in conclusion, live long, prosper, read lots of books, play football...and whenever you get a chance, have an ice cream


With lots of love and good wishes


Weird Uncle Fatso


p.s. In case you find the book bloody boring, you can sell it in the 2nd hand book shops at

Koti (Hyd)
College Street or Gariahat (Kol)
Avenue Road (Bangalore)
