THE OBTUSE ANGLE  
Eastern Time: The Great Colleague 
July 31, 2008

by Jeb Tennyson Lund

Recently a voice broke through the familiar murmur of internet wrestling nabobs, issuing a call for new determination to tackle conventional wisdom. Unfortunately, most of you never got to hear it. The voice belongs to Chetan Babuta, a Mumbai-born transplant to the United States whose grit, hustle and heart helped him carve out a place on a new continent and the internet. Yet despite running his own wrestling website, Chetan Babuta happily takes a backseat to others. His hunger for ideas leads him to print others' work, using his energy to give them a home while his own voice, sadly, recedes into the background. (Chetan is somewhat unjustly ashamed of his English.)
 
A few weeks ago, I emailed Chetan determined to entice him to share his thoughts. At first, he disclaimed association with his site. He was a go-between, he said, between good work and good presentation. I refused to let Chetan's humility deter me, and eventually he relented. Since then I have been privileged to share a dialogue with him; and after a great deal of pestering, have

convinced him to open one with you. But, since his site exclusively features other writers' thoughts, I persuaded him that it would consistent with his ethos to have this site be his sounding board. I hope you will like my friend.

Raw Mix of Signals on Achieving
by Chetan Babuta

Hello!

One of the thing that makes me feel hardest in this country is to makes friends. People I observe, I say myself, "This can be friended," so I walk upward them and do it. I talk to them and they have to go badly. What was I said??? It turned out that I say something wrong. Ok, I said to me, time to learn.

This is differently from WWE wrestlers.

When I have problem, I solve to find the answer. You find no good come in complaining, because nothing come without you put in elbowed grease and work it hard until happiness. Stick-to-itive-ness. Grinding. Manufacturing good outcome. Maybe could I stay at home at nite and feel like a hole because friends not in my live, but only into melancholy thinking like that takes. GO!!! Always, try.

I wish you much luck in tells Jamie Noble that!

On Raw, Noble informs at audience with disappointment of his. He is not John McCain in hearts of America. He is not Barack Obama. (He is lucky! Obama is an islam who wants to be president so he can have the nuclears! Pretty soon everywhere like islamland! Deserts! I know this because islams broke off much of my country.) Whine whine whine!!! What he has not been done is trying hard enough. That explained his fanless being. To make this thinking glassy, we go back to show at its begin.

Cena comes to ring the beginning bell with his mouth on the mick. He says then, there, "Batista, my strike on you did not intend!"

See what Cena is acting there? He is acting like owner of his problems! He owner to them to make them his, so he works them outward later. When other people owning your problems, they are owning YOU. When you are owner of them, you whip them like a children. Make work for you. That internals "positivity." Cena positivities himself to create capitalizations later.

Then it revolves so Cena and Batista are a couple tonight, must engage cooperative. Who else is becoming same as them? JBL and Kane! Kane is insane. Never deal to insane people. Trust me, because it very difficult to lawsuit these people. But, you say, what is JBL? What manly is he? Lettuce thinks. JBL talks for FOX News (FACTS!!!!!!) and has CEO of business (NEW PROGESS!!!). JBL should be owner his problems so much, he boil them in gold.

Guess what happen? JBL is not succeeds all night. He aspires to Shane MCMahon and ask for shot. Title shot. See??? Shane O'McMac owner JBL's problems, not otherways. JBL says how he gave a money pay per views for respect. BAD investment. BADDER investment???---beggaring. Shane O'McMac says no, so JBL acts upset because he is there and not there for getting his want. JBL is a Mexican. Think about it. In America, you take opportnuties and make them more. You don't wait for Home Depot free ride and someone is saying "ok, now we want you and you, this lucky day of yours, ok." In the future, time for YOU to invest. Tomorrow, invest. Not now and for people who want it now. Tomorrow if WWE is to excellence!!

The show ends after Cena achieves pinning. Think WHERE he does it however. Cena slapping on Batista when Batista is in other places, brainwise. Cena is one step MORE in the game when he acts this. Profit!!! Batista has fails because he is not thinking when he could lose with SLAP from CENA.

I say too much, because friends always say, "Chetan Babuta! You so crazy!" They mean my brain sound in disconnects some of times, but I want to connects! Think about it. JBL is whining. Nobles is whining. Batista is whining. See Cena. He takes pins and is making chances. Own problems, own success. WWE gets ahead on that think.

Thank you to who are reading! Please friend me to your Myspace so we can be friends or give each other business!  I learn with blogging!
