Dear Chan,
Good to see that some wisdom and sense has prevailed
upon you and now you are probably begining to sound
mature enough so that we can have a proper discussion,
in assamese it is called "Haitha Maatit Poreese".
Realization came to you very fast and as we say if you
can't beat them, join them. So slinging a "blob of
mud from behind" is that all it takes to drive
everyone out of their insanity "hot-air balloon".
Now the so called learned veterans of Assamnet with
daggers drawn are singing praise for Momy.
Mr. Dilip Deka also raised a challege who is going to
"test" this person, who dare to stand up and raise her
voice against the self-styled guardians of the coveted
Assamnet. Do you think this is a wise call? Or are you
brothers in league?
Can you even identify who you are on the net, I don't
even know if your real name is "Chan", sounds Chinese
to me. Continuing on the same note, your concept of
"Jilikabo Luitor Paar" is long vanished into thin air.
Neither can you be called a "Khaarkhuwa Asomiya".
Don't get me wrong, I no longer cherish that dream. I
don't think you or I are in a position to do that
either "saat saagar tero nodi paar kori aahile jetia".
I choose not to participate in each and every topic
that is raised in the Assamnet, but I do read about
it. I agree, I do learn a lot. The lengthy comments
and snide remarks from other learned members, like
yourself, almost gagged in their thoughts ("Bere Saale
Kubabo logia hol keloi") and wrote sentences demeaning
Momy is really uncalled for. Don't you think that is
a personal attack? Why are you afraid of confrotation
and when you very well know you have done wrong. Or is
it? "Gongatoop to hoi manuhak dekhuwai laav naai,
nohoi janu?"! Lets not pretend what we are not.
Mr. Chan can you tell me how cool is cool? Its is
local dailect which you picked up (from your children
or from the streets) staying in this part the world
you are in. Dilbert meaningles cartoons is what
inspires you may be, but not me.
Unfortunately some of the other avid netters are
really making a mockery of their wisdom and are
falling short of being called senile. Assamnet is
probably a good place to hide behind a computer and
say what you like, who cares a damn! "Sahor Dookanar
Adda" is probably the best way to describe it. I
personally having nothing against it, may be its good
for old foggies to socialise.
Nobody termed you or for that matter anybody as a "bad
guy", thats your perception and realizing that you
have your freedom of speech doesn't bother me at all.
You have taken liberties to say things to me when you
don't even know me well. But treat this as a friendly
warning, please limit your comments to yourself, I
never played marbles with you as a child and neither
are you my buddy. "Dhura Shapor Fus-Fusoni Feti
Shapot koiu besi". I hope you are not a "Dhura Shap".
I have no objection if you or for that matter anybody
discussing the present state of affairs of Assam or
for that matter any topic under the sun. This may be a
hobby or an obsession or a favourite past time I don't
know. Go for it gentlemen and probably gloat in it as
well. Yes indeed, I will participate whenever I feel
like it even if it amounts to "randhonik usatai maasor
jhool khuwa". At least it keeps you folks from getting
carried away.
I don't feel intimidated by your wild threats like "My
most strident ones are usually directed to my erring
peers" - go fly a kite Chan and shove it any where you
like. My vocabulary is also very vast and explicit and
probably better than yours. So don't try to push me.
If you want to talk civily you are always welcome, so
don't consider yourself to be God-Gift to Assamnet or
mankind for that matter.
I am not a black-American and hence my salutation to
you is "NOMOSKAR" and not PEACE BROTHER!
and God bless you too.
