The Gundekota File-Entry#3: Olympic Diet and Reply to Arun Gupta
================================================================

To give you some idea of the latest socialist escapades here is my Salvador
Dali portrayal of our Olympic heroes along side ONGC crew and Air Force
light weight helicopter design team.

``Yoho, that was a big bummer. Where were you guys all these days? It's
6 months since the closing of Barcelona olympics?''

``Well, we were in Scindia's estate in the outskirts of Jaipur. We were
in hiding all this time. It is miserable.''

``Did you eat and sleep well?''

``Well, we used to get daily ten eggs for breakfast, a goat for lunch
and a chicken for dinner. Of course, there is a farm nearby where we
get fresh milk from the cows, fruits from trees and honey from hives.''

``It seems you guys had a very good time.''

``Not really. Ever since our archer fell sick, we couldn't hunt the
deers. You know how bland dinner is without deer.''

``I can imagine. At the ONGC oil rig the favorite entree is paper
plates plates and cups.''

``Anyway, so the archer was not helpful. Then the marksman broke his arm
one day. So geese are out. The sprinters got measles. Alas, no honey. The
pole vaulters and long jumpers developed malaria. Sob, no fresh fruits and
vegetables. Our bodies started decaying soon.''

``Sounds like ONGC karma to me. When we don't find oil, we eat gold.
If we find oil, we eat oil. Either way, our government doesn't ration
us good food.''

``Yeah, those helicopter team guys seem to be doing great. They are
getting coke from USA, cheese from Switzerland, chocolate from
Holland, bread from UK and vodka from Russia. Let me tell you, our
government is biased toward our defence more than anyone else.''

``No kidding, losers. We are working our sox off. So far we have only 
developed a flying prototype. We deserve the best food to complete
this project.'' 

``Boss, news flash. Our prototype fell in Scindia's farm. The boys
on board are safe and having fun in the farm. Apparently they are going
to be there for a while.''

``Yeah, for sure. We've been there ourselves and got sick. Send in
female doctors and nurses to take care of them. That's what we all needed.''


In article <weW8sN200VogEAA1Ik@andrew.cmu.edu> ag3l+@andrew.cmu.edu (Arun K. Gupta) writes about Yugoslavia:
>Its very simple.  

It's simply paranoid. 

During the months preceding the Iraq war or the latest oil war, there was
an intense lobbying within UN security council to get Sadam off Kuwait.
Do you see the simplicity of the problem? Like my neighbor sleeping in my
bedroom, Sadam is sleeping in Kuwait shake's bedroom and his cronies are
in Begums' wardrobes. However, in Bosnia there is no such simple metaphor.
President Bush is only human, indeed less than 38% one-- as in that v8 
commercial he is walking conjunctively with the leaning tower of Pisa.

I don't think our nook is any more civilized than Europe. In fact there is
greater awareness for environment and human life in Europe. Europe is not a
big wanton cauldrom brimming with sexual orgies--not any more.
