All their claim to fame is of course the poor shoe. Talking of shoes and their throwers, heard the latest? Ever concerned about making the Commonwealth Games more successful, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit has found a new event: footwear throw, on the lines of javelin and discus throw.
No it’s not funny, for given the level of performance of these new players on the block (B-negative, or below-par), there are serious doubts whether India can manage a medal even in this newly introduced sport.
But let Ms Dikshit worry about that. I am today concerned whether I could take a shot at the Games with that game -- to represent India, yaar, and make some money on the side by doing footwear commercials.
Anyway, given that I would need some target practice, I am zeroing in on some names. Only politicians volunteer, please, in this poll season:
# Gyanmohan Sing: For saying all of India loves Bush -- he forgot that a large chunk of the country now has proper sanitation, and does not need to go to the bushes to relieve themselves.
# Bhalu Prasad: For failing to come up with better antics; performances now seem like repeat telecasts in good ol’ Doordarshan
# Ayavati: For irritating the hell out of any TV viewer looking for some entertainment in news channels with her monotonous, read-out speeches
# Pee Chidamvram: For smiling his good-boy-look-at-me smile all day, all night. Just by the way, doesn’t he get bored?
# Bahul Andhi: For making boring speeches about all sorts of Kalavatis et al
# So-near Andhi: See above (generally for making boring speeches about Ayavati et al)
# Lal Keshto Sadvani: For a Chaha Chaudhary lookalike, he is too big (and bald) a bore
# Harendra Nodi: For failing to appreciate any Indian dish apart from theplas and dhoklas
# Aaj Thackarey: For vilifying Hindi-walas in a city largely driven by them
# Khamota Banerjee: For hating everything in and around sanity (arrey, some things, sometimes, are understood. But EVERYTHING? Ugh, someone tell her to go take a hike -- ta ta.)
