IKETERU, PERSONALITY PLUS, GURU & GAMARJOBAT

I was surprised that I could still remember my mum's recipes for lontong and soto when NI said that her friend asked for them. And to think that I had spared many tears these last few years by taking a shortcut to shelling and pounding shallots by buying blended spices from Liza at TTDI wet market. Be that as it may, the Undomestic Goddess welcomes a complimentary food tasting session any day, rather than spending a whole day running to the wet market, and then skinning, shelling, peeling, pounding and simmering in the kitchen!

I used to beat myself up and lament about all the missed opportunities at making something of myself, and then a friend lent me Personality Plus: How to Understand Others by Understanding Yourself by Florence Littauer.
Sure, Ms Littauer and her daughter Marita are "internationally known speakers" who have "changed the world of Christian speaking", but since no Muslim friend has introduced me to works by a Muslim author/speaker (maybe I should start writing and conducting seminars on the temperaments according to Islam), it opened my eyes to the reasons why I had 'sabotaged' my chances at success to move forward and tone down the sanguine-choleric attributes with the more sobering melancholy and phlegmatic qualities.
On the other hand, boy, do I feel sorry for the all 'Perfect' Melan-cholics with their suspicious minds, axes to grind, labyrinths of wretchedness, manipulative mind games ... the laundry list goes on and on.
And not forgetting the 'Peaceful' Phleg-matics who non-chalantly surf along the high and low tides and accept the status quo in life!
To be contd.

Abishek Bachchan as/in GURU. Man, have Hindi movies evolved from song-and-dance routines to address issues of the Indian (labor) diapora and the struggle to make it from rags to riches in Hindustan. Three cheers for the Triumph of the People vs the State! To be contd.
This Japanese mime duo, Gamarjobat, is a riot and a half, and hilarious to boot! Ketch (red mohican) and Hiro-pon (yellow mohican) wowed the audience-packed Actors Studio, BSC, on Wednesday nite with their silly antics and superb rendition of Rocky, the movie.
'A Shut Up Comedy 2' is a tender yet funny 'mini-blockbuster' featuring "cops and robbers, love and loss, rags and riches, sight and myopia" and a whole lot more! www.gamarjobat.co.uk
And to my most ardent admirer, who makes me his priority day and nite, miming's great for clowns, but not for Prince Charming a-courting his Lady Love!
