Funny & Punny – And Their New Clear Deal
Funny & Punny were dilly-dallying over this deal for quite sometime now. Their minds were exploded by the confusion over the new deal. The funny side of it is that while the Funny side appear to have a clear idea about the all new clear deal and to them it was just another new clear deal, the Punny side didn’t quite agree. It is ‘one-too-many’ they hissed. You are wrong, Punny, it is just one-two-three, Funny countered. ‘one-to-three’, what nonsense is this, it is just one-to-one, you & me, alright, Punny snapped at Funny. Punny thought he gave the ‘right’ reply – which ‘left’ Funny fuming. And was about to explode. He held back. Look, let me put it this way: it is ‘one’ to me: ‘two’ to you & ‘three’ to ‘US’. Will that make you happy? But, stuttered Punny, “Swami wrote to me ‘1-to-3’ is a non-starter”, looking even more confused. Funny then put his hand around Punny’s back and said ever so politely, ‘let us stop beating (about the) ‘bush’, let me explain step-by-step, one-two-th.., Punny broke away from Funny not allowing Funny to complete and with an all-knowing wry smile writ large on his face, muttered between teeth: ‘how dare you teach me ‘abacus’. Abacus interruptus!
And the debate on the ‘new clear deal’ continued. The Funny side were clear in their mind that it was good for the country to go ahead with the new clear deal. While the Punny side ‘left’ everyone dazed by their tactics of having ‘left’ no stone unturned in their attempt to stall the ‘new clear deal’ which they were clear that Funny side are not so clear - their claim notwithstanding - about the whole thing called ‘new clear deal’. They thought there was more to it. Not just one, two and three! To them it was a myster(y)ee. Punny side were always ‘left’ thinking on how to get the Funny side to think right. It was just when the Punny side were indulging in yet another bout of tongue-lashing – only this time lashing their tongues at ‘fish’ during a lunch break – they can never stay away from it – during a marathon ‘camaraderie’ session to get a ‘clear’ vision on the ‘new clear deal’ that they thought little bit of ‘Rice’ would go well with the fish! Just as well, because ‘Rice’ & Fish’ together jell well. It was nice to see ‘rice’ walk along with ‘fish’ and help digest not just the ‘rice’, not just the ‘fish’, but along with ‘dal’ the whole ‘deal’. And every Man, Mohan & Singh are singing ‘Singh is King’. Now the (h)air is ‘clear’. Let us be ‘all clear’. Not just that. Let us be ‘head & shoulders’ above the rest. Let us beat the ‘beast’ in us and be the Best.
