Anyhayhoo , getting back to my profession, I am a professional politician. Starting in 1995 I strongly demanded (& won) the repeal of the speed glue ban since majority of TT players are speed glue users. Don’t ask me what about the health of children that I claim to care about deeply. 

      Talking about children, let us talk about the SuperSecret Durban Aspect Ratio Regulation of 1998. At first I kept insisting that yes it is a regulation & supported it using the excuse that it greatly benefits grass roots development. Again don’t ask me how can a junior,  can even remotely comprehend the change in Aspect Ratio of Long Pips, if these juniors cannot initially handle even playing against short-pips (or anti). My answer is again is (that supporting the SuperSecret Durban Aspect Ratio change) that I am a wily politician.

    But my masterstroke of political policy came in 2017 when I started demanding that the 2008 Ban on Frictionless Pips be repealed (because it would benefit older players).

But again don’t ask me about how the children would be not be affected 1000-fold if  supposedly so many of them were saved by the small change in one parameter (Aspect Ratio) in 1998 but won’t be far more traumatized by frictionless pips (which will randomize so many parameters and or impact children  far more negatively). Don’t ask me if grassroots development was more important than older players because you are supposed to have forgotten about all that from 1998 SuperSecret Durban Aspect Ratio Change . We politicians depend on common people forgetting the past quickly.

     I am a very good politician because despite all this illogical and convoluted & self-contradicting ways of my thinking , I have managed to win players to my side mostly because of my strong support for speed glues+boosting. So I will be elected yet again if I ran only to resign or be fired more times than Billy Martin.  Why I once even asked a Sikh boy to lose his fashion hairdo ( when questioned one of my worshippers asked him to stop playing with his "cobra" )

   I have very powerful friends in low places in the TableTennis circles whom I have brainwashed so thoroughly that they worship me and will literally kill for me on command.     

One thing I have learned in politics is the Republican philosophy "Never ever apologize". But I was the consultant for Democrat  Bill Clinton when he gave a 3 hour amazing interview never ever admitting that oral communication is indeed a form of communication.  I will never ever apologize for above 3 contradictions ( Glue Ban repeal of 1995, support for SuperSecret 1998 Durban AspectRatio Change, demand for repeal of 2008 Ban on Frictionless Pips) . However I did post recently in my blog that I do admit the Aspect Ratio Regulation is not a "Regulation" and should have been submitted as a "rule" (though it failed as such in 1995 Tianjin BGM)
