Emergency in Pakistan



Emergency in Pakistan, is it something new? Naahhh, it’s the fifth or sixth time after the 60 years of independence. So this time when I heard it, I said what’s the big deal. I was not serious what’s so ever. But when I sat down and thought about this one especially the time at which this one is being brought, I can’t take this one so easily.

I think there are lot of difference between the previous emergencies and this one. This one is forced on for one man’s shear obsession to power – Gen. Musharaf. It’s quite obvious, there can't be any second thoughts on this, even if you are his supporter. Though he ruled the nation for almost 9 years and didn’t do much significant development for the nation, still he is reluctant to give away this throne.

Second thing that comes to my mind is the un-stability that’s prevailing in the Pakistan. Also one should remember this is the first time Pakistan with the knowledge and owning bunch of nuclear weapons enters emergency. Since I am from India, this thought makes me more nervous. But anyone could say that we don’t see any chance of war because of this emergency.

For all of you, think about the Kargil war against India under the same Gen. Musharaf rule. For me I interpret that war as a justification from the General’s side when people started asking about his action at that time. So I fear of a war between India and Pakistan just to distract the people of the nation since he is not able to justify his current action.

So what’s the solution for this problem? Is there any solution for this problem? With the current structure of Pakistan government, I fear this could continue forever. Couple of days back a party person of Ex-Prime Minister of Pakistan Nawaz Sheriff said that its impossible to run a democratic government in Pakistan without the intervention and dependence of the military in all its action. Thus to run a democratic nation in Pakistan, the fundamental structure needs to be changed.

And when this happens, we should be able to see a change in the way the government runs hopefully in a good way.

The Husband Store...

A store that sells husbands has just opened in New York City, where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates. You may visit the store ONLY ONCE!

There are six floors and the attributes of the men increase as the shopper ascends the flights. There is, however, a catch. ... You may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up a floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building! So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. .

On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men have jobs and love the Lord.

The second floor sign reads:

Floor 2 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, and love kids.


The third floor sign reads:

Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, and are extremely good looking.

"Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.


She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop- dead good looking and help with the housework.

"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"


Still, she goes to the fifth floor and sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop- dead
gorgeous, help with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor and the sign
reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 4,363,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please.

Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store. Watch your step as you exit the building, and have a nice day!

Go Big Red!!!


ELECTRIFYING – You want to know how it feels??? Come and watch a Huskers football at Memorial Stadium, Lincoln, NE (Definitely a winning game, lol) I was told by everyone right from the day I landed here, GO AND WATCH A HUSKERS FOOTBALL GAME. But I wasn’t interested at all. First simply because I don’t know anything about the game and secondly I don’t think there is anything better than Cricket and F1. But right now I would say my thinking is dumb. Definitely American Football is interesting provided you have the atmosphere.

I have tried watching football on TV, but I cannot watch more than half hour. Its way different from watching it live among the 84,704 people shouting and cheering for the team. You may be telling me that it’s true for every other game too, but I feel this is different. The important things apart from the game, was the unofficial fight between the music bands of both teams, pre-match and break time performance by the cheer girls and band and finally the students.

Both the team’s music band were fighting to prove that they are the best. Definitely I can say one outplayed the other, but definitely it was fun watching them competing with each other. And then the twenty minutes pre-match performance was really good with colorful cheer girls and music band’s excellent performance with different formations. It was really superb.

The main reason behind my thrilling experience was the students. The way they dressed, the way they cheered, the way they shouted at opponents, the way they showed their anger and many more – Awesome. And finally I have to thank two people who made this possible was Sonny for giving me the ticket and Aravind Vishwanathan for accompanying to the game and answering all my stupid questions during the game.

And finally if you ask me is it better than cricket??? Be prepared to see me showing the finger to you. Cricket and F1 – Any day, Anytime.

India - Twenty20 World Champions

Wow!!! This is the only word I can say after seeing the nail biting finals between India and Pakistan in South Africa in which India took the trophy by just 5 runs. You can never ask for anything better than this.

This match had two main important things in it. One being the first twenty20 world cup and second, the clash between 60 year rival teams - India and Pakistan. But I have to say that it was pure cricket and nothing else. As everyone said it was cricket which won at the end and I completely agree with that.

I dunno how many beats my heart skipped during the final over of this match but it was worth it. I am still astonished by Indian team performance in this tour but at the same I dont want to praise them too much which may make them complacent.

Anyway thanks a lot to the Indian and Pakistan cricket team for entertaining all the cricket fans with a fabulous performance.

Beauty and Brain: Two ends of a spectrum


If you are still not convinced with the topic, don't worry, you will be on my side in a couple of minutes. Recent beauty contest in USA was perfect example of how beauty and brain can never go together. Check this video.

I am not sure what exactly was going on in her mind when she answered to this question but definitely it has worked for her, not in getting her the beauty tittle but in achieving fame, check the number of hits on her youtube video.

Wow!!! This makes me wonder what I should do to get famous. Lol!!!

Formula one : Anything better than this? Nahhh!!!


It was of great pleasure to see F1 racing after a long long long time ( 2 years is longer than what I said over here, don't you think so? ). So enjoyed every bit of pre-race session and post-race session. It was awesome!!!. But the only thing which was missing in the whole race was the magic of my hero, MICHEAL SCHUMACHER. Yes he retired last year. The next person who comes to my mind after Schumi is Fernando Alonso who is currently driving for Mclaren Mercedes and last year's world champion.

Though Kimi (driving for Ferrari) is doing a great job, being Ferrari fanatic I wanna see someone repeat the magic, the aggression, the vengance in driving from a Ferrari driver. And I believe it can be done only by Alonso. I hope even Ferrari has ideas of roping him and signing a contract with him for the next season. That will be a treat for Formula One lovers and for sure everyone will go crazy.

But this new kid Lewis Hamilton( driving for Mclaren) is doing really good. Today's race was his third win in this season. What else you can ask from an debut driver? Also its nice to Mclaren back in form and giving tight fight for Ferrari.

Hoping for a great fight and a Ferrari win in the next ISTANBUL race on 26th of this month.

If not a good kisser, then loser!!!


I have started listening to the local FM station in my city. Its KFRX and pretty good especially the morning program in which the RJ's are doing a great job. I love the morning 2 hour program, its real fun. More than that they play all the hit songs(some are repeated often but I dont mind hearing good songs again. who would??? ) I have been listening to this radio station for the past two weeks and now I am kinda addicted to it. I go mad if I dont switch it on.

Also its very pleasant to listen to sonsg while working. Till now I didnt have an ipod or any walkman kinda thing to listen to songs but with my new mobile I am able to do it. In this same FM, there is a show in the evening where they ask the listeners all kinda crazy questions and they throw a bunch of facts especially about college students.

One of them was "80% of the relationship break because one of them is not a good kisser". Wow!!! Thats a piece of information. And listeners started to call the FM and pour in their views about it. And mainly girls started talking about how they dumped guys because they weren't a good kisser.

They were making fun of all their EX's and described how bad they were at kissing. Almost all the girls were saying the same thing and making fun but all of sudden a girl called up and she had a complete different opinion.

She said even she had came across a guy who wasn't great in kissing but instead of dumping that guy, she talked him into it and helped him out. Ooohhh!!! Thats great. Hats off to you. And she said thats what she would expect others also to do.

The reason why I am writing this is I myself dunno how good or bad I am at kissing. If I am bad, I wanna to be with one of those girls.

PROCRASTICAFFEINATION

Atlast I am sitting down to write a blog. I dunno why it took me so long to update my blog but its almost like I lost my interest in blogging. I hope its not true coz I started blogging with a desire to improve myself in many things and I dont want to cut it too soon. And so here I am finnally sitting down for my next blog.

Couple of months back when I went to have a coffee in my work place I came across this strange word. Before telling you more about that word, let me tell you guys that for me ENGLISH is always the most funny and stupid language. Dont ask me why but thats what comes to my mind when I think about it. Even I dont have real answers for it. Anyway coming back to the topic about the english word, I almost laughed when I first read and went over its meaning.

Every month in the coffee room in my workplace, they put up a WORD OF THE MONTH and couple of months back the word they had was PROCRASTICAFFEINATION and the meaning of this was stated as "When a person avoids to take last cup of coffee in the coffee machine inorder to avoid making new coffee or to clean the coffe machine"

OMG!!! How on earth can anyone coin words for these kinda suituations??? Thats simply silly and stupid. Dont you agree with me? For a moment I didnt believe my eyes. I ran out of the coffee room and googled for the word but unfortunately I didnt get any results for it which made me think that this word isnt real and just for fun.

If its just for fun, I am fine with it but if its a real word, KILL ENGLISH!!!

Ladder Ball


It was kinda tiresome day at work today. But I turned home pretty early to get some rest and thats when my friend called me whether I would be interested in playing a new game. Since I was kinda tired, I wasnt interested to give it a try. But somehow I said okay to him and went to play the game. Its called LADDER BALL.


Its real fun and entertaining. For sure its not that easy but at the same time its not at all energy consuming. To really have a feel about this game, just play it.


To see a video about how the game is played, click here.

In the recent times, I was really fascinated by going through other video blogs which are really very interesting to me. So I thought why dont I have one for myself. And more over its free and its not going to cost me any penny. And so here I go, I have started a new blog which has the videos I like the most.

Click here to check it out.

Crush...

I wanted to write about this topic for a long long time but unfortunately I didn’t have the mood to sit down and put them in words. Here I am finally doing it. Its one of the most common things in today’s teenagers – crush.

Almost a month back in my friend’s apartment when we were done watching a movie and sat down for dinner, we started to talk about it. As usual someone started talking about girls (What else you expect guys to talk about!!!) and slowly the conversion took a roller coaster ride and we were talking about everything and finally we ended up fighting for a definition of crush.

Let me first tell you what I have been thinking so far as a crush. For me crush is a simple physical attraction and infatuation which people get when they see an opposite sex. It’s nothing more than that. For me, I don’t have to even know about the person to have a crush on her. So, just a simple look for few seconds is enough for a person to have a crush. Also I believe a person can have infinite number of crushes in their lifetime and only the most important ones remain in their minds for ever. This is my definition of crush.

But my friend gave me a complete different explanation. According to him, for a person to have a crush, he/she needs to know the other person pretty well and they should have moved close to each at least for a small period of time. Also he said you cannot have a crush with someone whom you don’t know at all.

So as you see, my definition of crush was completely different from his. Though we didn’t come to a conclusion at the end, we ended the topic saying “I think I am right, but not sure”. Even now I don’t know whether I am right or wrong but I am ready to correct my self if I am wrong.

So how do you guys define CRUSH???

Good Old Barber

There was a good old barber in Bangalore . One day a florist goes to him for a haircut. After the cut, he goes to pay the barber and the barber replies:
I am sorry, I cannot accept money from you; I am doing a Community Service. Florist is happy and leaves the shop.

The next morning when the Barber goes to open his shop, there is a "Thank You" Card and a dozen roses waiting at hisdoor.

A Confectioner goes for a haircut and he also goes to pay the barber he again refuses to take the money. The Confectioner is happy and leaves the shop.


The next morning when the Barber goes to open his shop, there is another "Thank you" Card and a dozen Cakes waiting at his door.


A Software Engineer goes for a haircut and he also goes to pay the barber again refuses the money saying that it was a community service.

The next morning when the Barber goes to open his shop, guess what he finds there......

Priceless!!!

A guy woke up at home with a huge hangover. He forced himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he saw is a couple of aspirins and a glass of water on the side table. He sat down and sees his clothing in frontof him, all clean and pressed. He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotless, clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins and notices a note on the table.

"Hey Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I leftearly to go shopping. Love You!"

So he goes to the kitchen and sure enough there is a hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating.

He asks, "Son, what happened last night?"
His son says, "Well, you came home around 3 AM, drunk and delirious. Broke some furniture, puked in the hallway, and gave yourself a black eye when you stumbled into the door".

Confused, the man asks, "So, why is everything in order and so clean, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me? I should expect a big quarrel with her!"

His son replies, "Oh, that! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your clothes n shoes off, you said , "Hey !!!!!!! Leave me alone! I'm married!"



Moral

Breakfast -- Rs. 100.00

Self-induced hangover -- Rs. 2000.00

Broken furniture -- Rs. 20,000.00

Saying The Right Thing While Drunk - PRICELESS!!! !!!!!!!!! !

Change the world...

I am becoming lazy day by day. The simple reason is, I can't even sit down and write my own blog. All I can do to cover it up is posting one more forwarded message as my blog. Go ahead call me a cheat and at the same time enjoy the post!!!

When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world.

I found it was difficult to change the world, so I tried to change mynation.
When I found I couldn't change the nation, I began to focus on my town.
I couldn't change the town and as an older man, I tried to change myfamily.

Now, as an old man, I realize the only thing I can change is myself,and suddenly I realize that if long ago I had changed myself, I could have made an impact on my family. My family and I could have made animpact on our town. Their impact could have changed the nation and I could indeed have changed the world.

"Great words for reflection if we rashly attempt to change something orsomeone else other than ourselves!

Don't Blame and complain Others........
