I hope you don’t mind me say, you really don’t have to write like a text message. We don’t charge for number of words as LS is not a telephone service provider . Not only is it difficult to write but difficult to read too (for me at least).
People in Pakistan generally still write emails like SMS messaging. Initially it was like that in the West too but it has evolved to normal typing. I guess people over there haven’t caught on yet. Typical like everything else!
lol awas!.sori my bad bt the reason i type like dat is usually cos i am typing from my fone.duno how to do paragraphs either and cos i aint got my laptop on so sir forgive me ! So do i have to type proper english nw? Hmm how do u do sir? A cup of tea wil do kindly..:
Islam allows 4 wives and also gives a patriarchal role to men. So my interpretation of that is, men can marry 4 and “look after” as many women as they want
Plus there will be more women than men in this world, who will look after them?
wel im jus a simple person who likes to try and have their head high no matta what life throws…im a believer in trying not to let da bad stuff get to u…inshallah da big man has a plan for us all here..heres hoping its a gud one…i m in da uk is everyone else from there?…erm i like food esp muffins and kks!..erm my fav colour is blue and green…we shud have an intros page!..my train is taking its time and im cold…
I’m from Manchesta’ Andehkee….I’m just a simple person who believes that life is stressful and there is an assessment, an exam and mental challenge in every corner. My life has been a disaster zone of one exam after another. I have been trying to study and become something in life for as long as I can remember. It seems there is nothing else I was born to do. I’ve spent more time in my life stressing out about education, than anything else. I’ve spent more time STRESSING than STUDYING.
Apart from studies all I can think about is cricket, politics, girls and food.
I’m crazy about food. I ate a whole packet of Celebrations by myself yesterday. There have been occasions in my life when I’ve had pizza everyday for a week.
kool..im from south east uk…bucks side…anyhow u should nt stress i mean ur b old and look back and think why did i waste all dat time stressing.then again sumtimes when u want sumting reali bad u wil keep goin…bt when do u admit defeat.anyway dnt stress too much your go bald and grey…dnt really like celebrations..prefer heroes!.and can reali overdose on skittles at times!.i thought we cudnt eat celebrations…mayb someone could do a haram chocs and sweets list if they got bored..
Javed, I’ve been saying this for a while now that you have a “Kaali Zabaan”. You proved it yesterday when my $755 Orvis Zero Gravity Helios fly rod snapped in half while fishing! Thanks God it has 25 year warranty so I sent it back to get a new one. But my day was ruined because I didn’t bring a spare rod with me. It was a 4 wt, 9 ft, 4 piece rod and the fish was probably like 6 lb so I was surprised when it snapped because I caught bigger fish with the same rod. I use a light rod for that project because most the trout fish there are just 10” to 15” long and very few are big. Also, I like the feel of light rod when fish fights hard.
For those of you who don’t know what “Fly Fishing” is here is a brief explanation; there are streams or part of streams labeled as “Fly Fishing Project” where you can only fish using artificial flies as baits and no live bait like minnows, worms etc. are allowed. It is the most exciting fishing technique for trout, steelhead, and salmon where a special rod is used with a floating line. Most of the flies that are used as baits are floating flies resembling common bugs that fish eat at a specific stream. The other bait type is wet flies which resemble bugs underneath stream water or salmon eggs. Why fly fish? Because streams are open for fly fishing all year around contrary to Reel Fishing using live baits which is just seasonal.
The above short course will cost you $5. Please have your credit card number ready -:)
awas i do not have an iphone!but if u wud like to purchase me one i will not mind at all!..i have nokia n95 8gb unlimited net so pretty gud…anyway happy new year for 2morow! Bug u all nxt yr!..
So you were right about Andheeke‘s text messaging and she has justified by saying that she uses cell phone for emails. “First, you will have to make me an offer that I can’t refuse ” Is there a condition that it must be hand delivered by the owner? Knowing you Awas, I guess that’s pretty much on the cards.
Anyways, this is for ALL OF YOU………. I am wishing everyone A VERY HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR.
awas you will have my duas that you will have a fab and successful year then again i would wish that for everyone so how about a box of heroes as we all need a hero in our lifes! Lol.. Happy new year 2009 guys and girls.. !..x.
Andheeke, by extending duas to Awas you sound more like a Barree Bouiya. Btw, let the world know how old are you? And where is your friend DRC?
Wasim, Sweetie, Andheeke and all those who have wished the New Year Greetings, thank you for that and may Allah give you more happiness, health and wealth in the year 2009 and beyond.
Agar Mara Kaala Zubaan Hoti, tou Tumara Natalie ka Moonh boat paylay Kala ho Jatee!
Man, you can make a “Natalie Ka Pottlie” (bundle) and keep her near your butt otherwise she will be hooked like a trout.
Thanks for the fly fishing tips to people, i.e., if they can really learn how to catch a trout or a salmon! But, in your cheap $5 quickie (short course) you didn’t mention about the Gum Boots and how deep you stand in the water? Or, you look for a rock to stand above the water?
Apart from the river, lake fishing is very popular here. After the ice is cleared, lake trout are in the shallow water and hungry like Natalie. They are no longer confined to deep water without as much to prey on. Hence, trout fishing is more like a rage among people who live close to these lakes and you know Canada is so full of sweet and fresh water lakes.
And my dear theologitst, trout fishing by using a fly rod is not like a date with Natalie yet, dressing properly for the occasion is a MUST. And the satisfaction of reeling in a big trout makes all the preparation worthwhile. After you have caught it, whether you release it or cook it, is not all that important and exciting.
It is all about the thrill of the chase —– Shikaar e murdaa saza vaar e shahbaaz nahee, jo kabootar pur jhaptnay mein muzza hai ay voh muzaa shayad kabootar kay lahoo mein bhee nahee. Chacha Ghalib nay issi “OKayyen” per ek Sher irshaad kiya hai.

You are asking Awas: “you want to b stuck in bed for a week wid da flu ………” wali?
For a second I thought it was an offer Awas would not refuse at any cost.
I g2g now take care guys! Have fun.

3. Professional in what?
Guys please watch these classy vidoes of Mushy and the 2nd upload is of the impressive Adil Rashid whose been selected for England in the forthcoming tour of the Carribean. The first one also features Mushy being the dressing room comedian and playing footabll whilst the rest show some magic wickets and deliveries of the leg spinner. Sit back,relax and enjoy the legspin kings.
khansahab Javed A Khan “I didn’t get that “Maghribi churail” thingy?
The reason you didn’t get it is because your Urdu is bahot ghareeb (very poor) its the literal translation of wicked witch of the west….. witch = Churial and maghrib = west and still you didn’t get it? Never mind
It was like Hikmat yaar Gul Badin = Doctor Friend Flower Body.
Ps.
Oh, Awas has already done the translation for me, I was on the other page and did not notice that. Sank You Awas….. bucchay ki urdu ghareeb hai kya ker saktay? Buccha tou khair kya, bahot say baron ko bhee baaz time samaj nahee aati kion kay
Aati hai Urdu Zubaan Aatay Aatay
Pps
Once on BBC MB I wrote the same verse and DRC‘s darling Afsana (likh rehi hoon) said, hey why are you pulling my Aati’s leg?
We have been discussing Imran Khan and Jemima for the past couple of days, here is one on them, its not new some of you may have already heard / read it before.
Imran Khan asks Jemima on their first wedding night, ‘Darlin did you like my shot between the two fine legs?’ She replied, it was a good shot but, you are not the opening batsman.
I release most of the fish I catch, and only take big fish home. On your other comment about hunting deer, what’s wrong with that? The chicken, beef, and lamb you eat are all KILLED in some way so why I’m the bad guy and you or not -:) I also hunt North American black beer, coyotes, and wild boars for fun and fur purposes and that actually helps the animal population. I’ll explain you how; Legal hunting is very different from poaching. We the hunters pay the state and federal governments to manage wild life through hunting, fishing and trapping licenses and through federal excise taxes collected from the sale of hunting fire arms, target shooting, and fishing equipment and motor boat fuels. Loss and degradation of habitats through urban sprawl is the greatest problem facing fish and wildlife. The money obtained from hunting license and sale of fire arms is used to enhance and protect habitats and help maintain a healthy population of wild life. Mind you, hunting is only seasonal and is done when there is an excess population of certain specifies. Governments have guidelines for hunting only full grown animal. I hope this will help you and others clear a lot of misconceptions spread by the liberal media who wants gun control. Here in Pennsylvania they teach kids how bad and immoral it is to hunt a squirrel. I guess they want the new generation to be pansy and unable to defend themselves. How nice it would be when a crook show up at a house for burglary and the man of the house hides under the bed rather than protect his family -:)
Javed
For $5 cheap fishing course that’s all I could offer. Wading clothes, wading shoes, the size of hooks, the weight of the line, flex of the rod etc will cost you guys more.

How did you become Blair Witch from Sweetie? Come on you can share with me.
Khansahab
At your no.1 to no.3 New Year’s resolutions I would say, work out at a gym, do weight training and tell me at the end of 2009 if you accomplished them.
Awas
Eik mohabbat ko bholane keliye dosre kerne pudti hai.
OK, time for more jokes to ease off the tension of 2009
Mom says to her daughter: You stupid, didn’t I tell you if a guy touches your boobs, say don’t and if he goes below your belt, you must say STOP. So, how come you allowed him to efff you?
The girl replied: But Mom, he touched both at the same time and I said, don’t stop!
Khanshab,your new year resolutions seem to be like many others.Getting a girlfriend theme I don’t think applies in our culture though. Never the less all the best and please see the videos uploaded.Yasir Arafat also features in the 2nd one as he and Mushy clear up Surrey.Muhsy’s wickets are well and truly brilliant in that game.
More on cricket…. How do the commentators describe…..
1. A stalker or a nude woman on the ground? (unfortunately we don’t see them anymore, because of these security guys)
No cover, no extra cover, no slip, 2 silly points, 2 fine legs and a deep gully. Little grass on the pitch.
2. On Mendis bowling:
He is a good user of his fingers, he uses only two fingers but he gets the best of his balls twist and turn only thru those 2 fingers. I wish I had magic fingers like his. (Ranjit Fernando to Waqar – surprisingly waqar did not comment back)
3. Another one of Ranjit Fernando: Jayasuriya is an extremely good hooker
And, Ranjit continues……
Whenever he sees the ball is rising, he goes under it and plays it with ease! Especially through the legs he takes it very nicely.
Eik Mohabbat ko bholane ke liyeh dosree kerni padti hai……… hummm it means, those who constantly fail in Mohabbat are the real achievers! right? Unna day maojaan-e-moajaan.
Aur flex of the rod ki kyaa baat ker reho tum? Wo tou ab kisi kaam kay qabil na reha toot jo gaya! Are you going to fix it with super glue and use it?
Btw, I have separate rods, telescopic is fiberglass and a two piece crankin and a very strong graphite for trolling. Trolling ka mazaa tou Dubai may aata thaa in deep sea fishing but here its not possible. Unless you wanna go with me to Florida for Blue Marlin fishing or, Fiji would be a better place.
abdul, which culture are you talking about UK wala or Pakistani? At both places kids your age have fun with Barbie, Cindy and Stacey and watch movies like Pocahontas. khansahab plays with life size Cindy’s and Barbies the inflatable type!
Javed, never did Blue Marlin fishing but you know one day. Hey, I watched that Outdoor Channel show on King Salmon fishing up in Canada. That’s sounds fun also.
A few of the many things I want to do before I die:
1-Catch a King salmon
2-Catch a Blue Marlin
3-Kill and stuff a 13 point Buck
4-Kill and stuff a Cougar or Mountain Lion
5-Kill and eat a wild African Buffalo
6-Kill and stuff an African male Lion
If I’m given option by God who I want to be in my next life, I would either want to be Clint Eastwood or Hugh Hefner.
I am agree with your 6 points and I can add a few more to that wish list of mine BUT the last paragraph of your comment about Clit Eastwood and Hugh Hefner both are alive and in 80′s and are living only on YAADAIN ….. I would prefer to die rather young and not look so old, fragile, wrinkled and haggard and YAADAIN becomes AZAAB for them.
Yaad-e-Maazi Azaab hai ya Rabb
Cheen lay mujh say Hafzaa Mera
I don’t want to be saying this. I want to die like my friend Nasir Durrani’s father who was healthy, strong and he was sitting in a party talking to friends and laughing out loudly and then the next moment he died and the smile on his face was there and when he was taken for burial and they showed his face to people for one last time the smile was still there on his face. I want to die just like that.
LOL Javed, I wanted to born again as Clint Eastwood or Hugh Hefner and I certainly wouldn’t like to have some 50 years scratched off my life. “I am agree” with you on dying with grace rather than miserable and being dependent on your spouse or kids. I guess that’s what every prideful or egoistic man thinks, a very common thinking among Pathans. I would rather have a Grizzle Bear eat me alive while hunting rather than having someone looking after me. I have too much pride to take that and I’m not afraid of death.
And you wrote Sweetie has a bitter side? Nahh, she seems a sweet person but then again I can’t judge her, right?
theo: Sweetie is a sweet person but then again I can’t judge her, right?
Well, when she will read this, she will get a wicked smile on her face and then she will laugh out loudly at the deer hunter (Robert D’ Niro) with a Muaahahahahahahahaha!
You don’t have to scratch off 50 years from your life, in most cases I have seen 65 plus is an age where man gets “SuathyaOed.” Meaning they go bonkers after that age. So eighty minus sixty five is 15 years and scratching 15 years is OK.
After 65 you can’t hold a gun or a camera in your hands without shaking it. So, hunting, photography and even fishing is out of question and depending on etc., etc.. or vaghaira, vaghaira is not something a real man would be looking to live for.
It’s about lunch time and I’m pulling Chicken Tikka, Chapli Kabab, and Parathas out of my lunch box. Nahh I’m day dreaming, it’s a freaking Quizno’s roast beef sub I’m gonna eat -:(
I thought it would be another fish sandwich for you but you have surprized me by eating a Quzno’s roast beef, I hate Quizons they suck.
Ps
I already had Paratha, omelet and last nights Karai Gosht for breakfast and its time for me to take a shower and get ready and go out, its 12:30 p.m. and being a Muslim I must go for Jummah prayers, I go Jummay ko Jummah! at least I am honest in admitting.
Javed, on the other hand I like to keep my weight around 180 lbs, with at least 4 pack (6 pack in summer). Subs without cheese are kindda blessing in disguise.
Warsha de jumme monz oka, Javed sher bachay de -:)
Khansahab, I was talking about how people perceive guys with no girl friends here in U.S. I know in U.K. gay is the new happy. Haven’t you heard of the popular phrase, “he is not gay, he is Birtish” -:)
Khansahab, if you think Abdul is gay (you would know coz he corresponds with you through emails) then you should guide him to be straight. If he is gay don’t hate him, remember we as mankind are all Homos, Homo sapiens I mean.
Khansahab,
One thing I don’t understand is that both alchohol and pre-marital sex is not allowed in Islam. When we talk about girlfriends everybody starts smiling (not that they shouldn’t) but with alchohol everyone is like that smelly thing to keep away from. Why the discrepancy
That girlfriend thing was just a joke. I’ve resisted the temptation all my life, surely I can resist it for a few years until I get married!
I don’t know the answer to your question, but I can speculate. I think getting intimate with the opposite sex is easier in our culture, because no matter how conservative one might be, everyone at some point meets the opposite sex. Whereas, alcohol is more difficult to obtain, and it’s something that doesn’t look, smell or taste particularly appealing (unlike women . It’s just a matter of addiction.
Whereas, intimacy between the sexes is natural and “godsent”.
I also don’t think that having a girlfriend necessarily means “sex” has to be involved. Certainly even if I had one, it would only be something I would contemplate as a last resort. That said, I don’t deny that most Muslim gentlemen I know who have courted, have done so because they wanted to experience physical intimacy.
I also think it is more about what kind of background one comes from. I would certainly succumb more easily to the “adaa-ein” of a beautiful woman, rather than the temptation to consume alcohol, something no one in my family consumes and most of my friends don’t consume. If I was from a family where people drank, I would perhaps succumb to the temptation more easily.
Khansahab,
So if you had a gf would you just hold her hands in playland
And wow sex is something you would comtemptlate and we are questioning Abdul here
Born in Pakistan on 10 August 1981, Sehr spent her first 20 years in Karachi, Pakistan before moving to Boston, MA to study. Her desire to represent Pakistan on an international level stemmed from her desire to help evolve Pakistan as a whole. “The pageant was a first for me, and all in all was an amazing experience. This pageant is a great platform which gives Pakistani women the opportunity to emerge as a voice for their community and address issues that need to be dealt with.”
Sehr Mahmood went on to compete in the Miss Earth 2006 pageant held in Manila, Philippines as well as Queen of the World in 2006. She took home the Best in Media and Queen of Elegance titles respectively.
Sehr Mahmood had just completed her honors degree in Economics at the time of her crowning and is now looking to gain her MBA in finance.
Haha yeah Khansahab…
We are treading along dangerous lines here. There is going to be a serious backlash here by Sana, Sweetie, or DRC. It is just the nature of women Very competitive…
Sehr Mahmood I can’t help but think that she was in one of my schools, much senior though.
Nah Khansahab baat mat karwana yeh kuri dangerous hai I mean you just get the feeling sometimes…
Lol I was kidding yea I mean yeh kuri– as a very far right Maulana might say–” insaan ko uske hosh o hawaas se baahar le aayege, ye kuri jahanum ka darwaza hai”
Khansahab 2006 Ka pageant dikha ker aap larkoon ko excite ker rahe ho, ab baat chalaney ka waqat guzar chuka! Iss ko ley jaaney waley ley ja chukey hoon gay.
Javed!!!! Loll.. No MUAHAHAHA @ ure comment 67! I started laughin loud but i remembered im sitting in my sister’s closet & about to get a kick on my rear end cuz shes tryin to put my neice to bed.
Mein itni bhi buree nahi hon =( Badnaam kia hua hai mujhe BM! Ure just jealous of me. so **smack**
BF, I wont say nething about sehr mahmood wearing makeup or getting a surgery, but i can’t help but think of this, how come u went from Monica to sehr? (Monica= beauty, Sehr = errrr no comments !! lol
Khanshab,we have many great discussions between me and u on this blog mainly about Paksitan cricket and Bollywood films but sometimes u completely change your character and make ridiclous comments. And it seems I’m speaking to a 10 year old child rather than a 21 year old lawyer.
Now I’m a heterosexual person. U know that shorly and I’m assuming u were being slightly sacrastic when asking me about my authority. Anway I thought u would be be easily convinced about this following my previous comments on the hot gals page. I did stamp my authority there about showing affection to glamarous women in particular Rani Mujurjee,Priety Zinta,Katrina kaif and the latest newcomer in Anuksha Sharma whose only a few years older than me!
Never the less in our Pakistani or Muslim culture we by pass the girlfirend stage and sex before marriage is strongly prohabited in the holy quran. However, a small relationship should be fine. Even though I know some people who have started to follow the English on this girlfirend theme majority of us avoid the temptation and therefore I was suprised at your intentions especially after all the so called advice you’ve given me.
Anyway anyone can tell it’s far to early to have a girlfriend at my age and I should give my stduies priority so therefore no need to interfer and make ridiculous statements of whom one can be ashamed.
I am apologise to you and I am ask for your pardon. I won’t interfere with your authority anymore.
But Abdul you have stopped writing on Hot Gals page and you never wrote dirty, sexual comments so I thought maybe you are “different” to other men?
Omer
I’m not kidding, this Sehr in that pic above looks like a gori in my law school, she is on my Facebook. Her hair is even like this gori’s.
I’m still with Monica…you know in Islam 4 marriages are allowed….
Wasim sahab
Yes, she is probably married now, leken kehtay hain naa keh mehnat karo toh bhagwaan bhi mil jaata hai……so I thought maybe Omer should keep trying, he might find her somewhere
Aww Abdul. For a teenager you have a very mature outlook on life. Girlfriends and the like can wait, but your time to study and make something of your life won’t keep coming back. So it’s all good. Work hard and I hope you succeed.
Oh and I only said that girl was ‘fit’ as a joke. I said it because you guys assumed we would disagree with her ‘prettiness’.
seriously dude what is wrong with you? You are inviting me to tell Abdul what is wrong with him, and when i write anything for his attention you censor my comment?
he is not your brother or friend, so let him get his due…
I didn’t expect this behaviour from you, at the same time I don’t think Abdul should react in such a Paindoo way, because people will call him a “juvenile delinquent”.
My friend Abdul you are NOT gay. Can’t you guys see how he stamped his authority on Rani, Karina, and the rest. He is busy studying but soon he will stamp his authority on Sehr too.
Munir its a LAZY SUNDAY kinda sunnata, the weather is so dull and boring at our end and last night I heard that even in the UK they are expecting something like -6C so if it is true then, they must be underground by now. Whereas, we already live in a deep freezer and are used to -12-14C but, for me if there is no sunshine then I feel like going back to sleep, Chunachay yahi howa aaj subha when I woke up at 8:30 a.m. (sunrise is at 7:30) it was kinda dark and I went back to sleep again till 1:00 p.m.
The good thing after Dec 21st is every single day will be longer than the previous day so there is hope but, the worst part of the winter has not started yet. As long as you stay outdoors you feel good, but when you hibernate then its a problem.
One of my neighbours called me an hour ago on phone, actually he woke me up, ‘coz he returned from a long trip to India and he was there during the Mumbai attacks and he was narrating some fresh stories about the current situation in India. I told him to save it, as I want to meet him sometime later to discuss it in person.
LOL @ “I told him to save it, as I want to meet him sometime later to discuss it in person”.
Javed you are really lucky to be sleeping till 1.00 pm with such nice and cold weather. I know in winters, one does not want to detach with blanket.
UAE have one of the best weathers in winter months, as we have temperatures ranging from 10C to 25 C max, which is best for outdoors, specially dessert safaris, camping, picnics, etc. but we don’t get to see really cold weather, rains, snows, etc.
I would like to visit Canada in winters and experience such cold temperatures, before I die.
Munir:“I would like to visit Canada in winters and experience such cold temperatures, before I die.”
Munir, like they say Hajj Jawani may kerna chahiyeh bakaoz its really tough. Likewise, you must visit Canada especially when you are young. Not that you will experience ONLY cold weather but, people here are hot, especially chicks. So, now I am leaving you all confused to decide what you wanna do in your life, now or hereafter!
Yes it has been sooo cold in the uk!……. staying in the midlands it woz freezing… man i missed my lil blanket!.. not that i was not being fussed over anyway u always miss home no matter what..:p..
i want to go Venice
how are we all keeping??………im still a newbie right ? so be nice :p
You wanna go to Venice for what? Just to be nice or you wanna be in a Gandola? You can’t be alone in a Gandola you have to ask Al Ka Pacino to take you there and sing that song, like Zeeni Baby singing it to Amita ka Buchpan.
i want to go because i always wanted to go there. i dnt sing songs so unless someone doubt mind singing to me its all good and carry my shopping its all even better .
thought you was going to say and sing that song “khaike paaaaan buna ras wala ” classic AB
Hot chicks in cold weather sure sound tempting, but I guess I better visit Canada when I am really old, that way I will be a nice (Force Majeure) and this will be good for my ‘hereafter’
Cold weather reminds me of a nice storey …
In one of the social gatherings, an old poet with snow-white hairs, was trying to get friendlier with a group of young beauties and was trying to catch their attention by reading a few of his new poems to the girls.
A journalist, who was feeling a bit jealous of the poet, approached him and said, Sir, would it not be more appropriate if you stayed among your own age-group, as these beautiful girls are way too ‘hot’ for you?
The poet, pointing to his white hairs, replied to the journalist, when one has ‘snow’ on the rooftop; he need more ‘flames’ in his room.
The song that I was referring to was from the movie The Great Gambler and the lyrics are Dou Lafzaon ki hai dil ki kahani………kya hai mohabat kya hai jawani
Late last year, I had the pleasure of seeing the singer Raghav live, one late afternoon, on a very wet and cold day in Birmingham.
I caught a cold as a consequence of standing in the pouring rain, with no coat on. It was an outdoor event, but it was worth it . All the other girls in the crowd were waiting for Jay Sean and the other ‘pretty’ boys. I was sooo impressed with Raghav’s voice.
I think the likes of Jay Sean, H Dhami are so over-rated in comparison to Raghav. He has such a soulful voice and it kind of touches you.
I quite like his new song. It has grown on me. It is called Humrahee.
It is freezing in the UK too. It has been snowing but has not settled.
I am so glad I do not have to leave the house, unless I really have to.
I’ve noticed the UK is getting colder and colder. Whereas before, in years gone by, one could anticipate a warm-ish Summer, now we just get miserable weather all year round.
I find it very unnerving when girls go ga-ga over Jay Sean or other hip hop/bhangra singers, they are quite ordinary looking guys. I am not jealous or anything, I just don’t understand the psyche how an average looking man becomes “good looking” somehow if he has fame and money?
I was deeply disappointed to see how Abdul was taken on by all but except me since I’m a good guy. Come on people where the conscious are? Abdul may not be gay and you guys should leave him alone. He does not pass dirty comments on exotic picture of girls because he thinks it’s a sin and not because he is a Homo. Khansahab you should post the Mushy’s bowling video highlight from 1979 test against Australia in which he took 13 wickets in one inning just to show good will towards Abdul. Thanks.
Theo Mushy’s bowling video highlight from 1979 test against Australia in which he took 13 wickets in one inning ????????????? I must be still in my bed and dreaming !!!! But, why would I dream of Mushy Bushy? There are other good things in the world to dream about!
Need 24 hours to examine your email before I make my selection. By default I have rights on the month of June but I do have 24 hours to return the item and pick another one.

2 lafzaon ki hai dil ki kahani
jhooti mohabat, adhhair jawani
This piece of poetry comes from a classic award winning sad love story which I’ll present you with great pleasure:
There was a blind guy who fell in love with this beautiful young girl. He could feel that she had it all, height, curves, affection. He felt like the happiest man alive on earth. So after dating for a few months they decided to get married and then the blind lover found out that the beautiful girl was in fact a She-Male so hence this piece of poetry slipped from his lips.
At Khansahab’s statement, “I learned them off by heart when I was 8. I started 5 times prayer when I was 11, and completed the Quran when I was younger”.
Yeah, I do get muddled up easily…but this time it was Theo who said 1979 not me I just said:
Mushy and Abdul Jindabaad…two master blasters!
khansahab
Why are u so keen to know when will Abdul be 17? Are going to ask DRC to bake a cake for him? When Abdul does tell you that then don’t forget 17 candles will be on you then.
Abdul, go on tell him, don’t be shy, lets have a treat on them…
Nahh, baking a cake for Abdul is no fun. For his 17th birthday I’ll take him to a strip joint and have sexy looking ladies give him lap dances. If Abdul is straight he’ll definitely say yes to my offer and finally put an end to this silly discussion about his sexual orientation.
DRC, that’s exactly what I proposed to put an end to this silly discussion. Read all my posts I’m the one who has supported Abdul all along. It’s just my nice guy nature that I can’t help but stand for someone who is being unfairly targeted. You know how I roll.
Theo, in your absence I defended Abdul and Awas backed me too. Teenagers are easily influenced and we should guide him in a POSITIVE manner. Lol, I like ‘how you roll’.
Awas, that is the pink tea isn’t it? I think we call it sabaz chai. It is lovely with lots of sugar.
Sadly, my daadi jaan and my mother are experts at making it and not me. I make desi chai though
DRC, it’s not really cold up there. Awas is just a spoiled brat who wants other to do things for him -:) But since you have a nice heart, go ahead make him Joshanda.
-3 C is not cold Theo?!It’s blaaaaaaaaaady freezing. Abdul just needs to put some extra layers on.
I haven’t been well for the last few days and my mum made me mashed potato with baked beans. It was so nice. Lovely in this weather.
Awas..I don’t like it salty. I love ‘desi’ chai; saunf, liachi, cinnamon..loose tea, milk and sugar. My dad makes me make it, it takes a while, but it is so nice.
Yeah right … the ‘dates’, thats what I was ‘looking’ at, and you ?
It’s called Sabaz or Kashmiri Chai, but funny it is ‘Ghulabi’ in it’s colour and at times it is also called ‘Ghulabi Chai’.
This is totally different to the Sabaz Chai of Pathaans, where they take tea with either a sugar/ jaggery cube in their mouth and not mixed in tea, or some even take their green tea with dry fruits.
Whenever my daadijaan knows one of us is ill, she will make us sabaz chai. It was like duwaey when we were younger. Now that we are older, we don’t tell her we are ill Negative associations with our childhood.
I am ok thanks. Working on my essay and posting here. Snow has melted here. How are things with you?
Awas, I am sure you all were ‘innocent’….once upon a time hehe!
It might have been nice but at the time daadi used to force us to drink it and we could never get out of it. Now my cousins and me just don’t tell her we are ill. hehe!Time is going very fast. I have an exam in 3 weeks
DRC, I just want to clear that I’m not like my crooked acquaintances i.e. Awas, Munir, Khansahab, Javed. I’m very seedha saadha. Also, at your Comment# 183, what Abdul needs is to follow a POSITIVE example like me.
Awas, DRC has seen your real picture remember? She can guess how old you are.
Sweetie, what???? 3Ws, then “bohut bada cookie” and “metthi” again?
Let me reveal the ages here, start with me, I’m 44, Khansahab is 100, Awas is 24, Javed is 27, Abdul is 13, Munir is 30, DRC is 21.5, Sweetie is 22, Andheeke is 20, Omar is 23.
Oh Khansahab, I thought Abdul was 13 because you just forwarded me an email which belongs to Abdul and you had the subject, “that’s what I get from a 13 year old!” You made me confused now -:(
Munir, what can I say, why you guys are making me so confused? Awas says he is 16, Khansahab says he is 10, and you insist on 9, DRC treats him like 6, which one is the real age I wonder? I read his comments on politics and cricket pages and he seems very mature to me. I believe he is a 17 year old with the brains of a 30!
Awas, I remember Abdul mentioned once that he is going to upload his wicket taking bowling videos on youtube, if you have the links please provide me. I will be able to see him in action and might also guess his age right.
Munir, I’m not able to look at the calendar yet which is supposedly full of beautiful ridges and valleys but I like spring and summer so there will be duel between us -:)
You guys better be good gun slingers, remember I have a 0.45 caliber Colt and it creates a soft ball size exit wound! Anyone daring to take my JUNE?????
Sweetie, look what DRC said before she left, “You lot are mean for confusing, apart from the cutie pie Khansahab, DRC blushes”. That looks very fishy to me, is she trying to snatch your BF? Most likely she is, so why not show her your wicked side which Javed mentioned once.
Guys I’m going after Munir, I promise I’ll get him back on LS sometime.
Guys why are u having a discussion over my age which I have revealed so frequently in the past. I apprepciate the work u guys have done especially the likes of Awas and Theossa on supporting me on this blog.Thanks guys !
I think me and Theossa share someting in common which is being classified as “mathematics geeks”. Yes my strongest subject is Maths and am aiming highly in that subject. My favourite element of Mathematics is statistics. How about u Theossa. I’m guessing u require good algebra in engineering as well as Physics.
However, DRC and co thanks for the advice but please don’t look to show sympathy for me on this blog and treat me like a normal individual.
Hey BF, dont call Theo Wicked wizard of the west! LOL ( ure the only BF hehe)
Awas, i posted the vdo so it would help abdul remember the 99 names, nuthin more! lol
NO DRC, that sabz chai is green tea, the chai Awas is asking is the Kashmiri Doodh Putti the one with saffron, almonds and pistachio and it is pink because you mix hot and cold (chilled) and add air to the chai and thats how it changes colour.
When you mix hot and cold you say, Blow Hot Blow Cold.
It was good of you to remind us about that programme on BBC4. Islam’s many contributions to science are a wonderful legacy that we should be proud to be associated with but it’s a pity that we have been left far behind in the quest for further advancement. It was a good programme to watch. There a two more parts to it. The presenter, a professor at Cambridge but originally from Baghdad was quite at pains to compare the Baghdad of now and a centre of civilisation and knowledge then.
Did anyone else watch it?
The Mayor of London also presented a good one on Islam a while ago.
Even b4 I read your comment above, I was going to suggest to you why don’t you follow on Theossa’s footsteps as you are the youngest and become a scientist and show the world how good you are. Did you know that Algebra was given to the world by Muslims? So, you are on good track with you interest in Maths. Theossa will be proud of you.
And don’t worry with a mind like yours we will treat you like an adult.
BAGHBAAN: Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini are separated right after Holi remember Amitabh singing Holi khele Raghubeera? They are said to be separated for six months, i.e. from March to September. Within that six-month period, they celebrate Valentine’s Day, which falls on February 14, and karva chauth, which is usually observed in October. There is no way these two occasions could come between March and September.
LAGAAN: Lagaan was shot in the late 19th century. At the time, an over in cricket used to consist of 8 balls. But in this movie, an over has 6 balls. Maybe modern cricket learnt from the movie.
AMAR, AKBAR, ANTHONY: Three men donate blood at the same time to the same person.
AWWAL NUMBER: Dev Anand is an omnipotent genius – a former Cricketer, Captain, Army Chief, Commissioner, you name it. And Aamir Khan carries a huge transistor in his pocket while batting!
KHALNAYAK: The police tracks the villain from an MS Word Document screen! Something that office team will be interested in)
PYAR TO HONA HI THA: Kajol gets off the train to use the public toilet at the railway station and the train chugs off without her. Poor girl, little did she know that every train compartment has four toilets inside. ! ;
KHILADIYON KA KHILADI: Akshay Kumar boards a Jet Airways flight to America. Well, well, som! e promotion for our Indian Jet Airways. That Time Jet Airways wasn’t an International Flight. Or else we say that Movie was Pre -launched?
RAJA HINDUSTANI: Navneet Nishan has short hair before marriage. After tying the knot, she acquires waist-length hair overnight. What a hair-raising experience!
RAJA: Dilip Tahil empties a can of petrol over Madhuri Dixit. Minutes later, Sanjay Kapoor takes the same can and pours it over Dilip Tahil. That’s what I call an autofill!
GUDDU: Manisha Koirala and Shah Rukh Khan are seen hanging on a parachute during a song. But when the song ends, they land on a glider. What a
switch above sea level!
TERE MERE SAPNAE: Priya Gill is doing her BA. But at the bus stop, she is carrying an electrical technology thesis by B L Theraja. What an electrifying interest!
Have a nice time!
PS: You all can check with ABDUL for the verifications.
I’m glad you finally find out who your friends are on this blog and who “pretenders” are. I and Awas are your real friends while DRC is a pretender. It’s because Awas and I treat you like a man and DRC treats you like a little girl. Just look at what she wrote on her comment# 190, “It’s blaady freezing. Abdul just needs to put some extra layers on”. Now I know you can handle cold very well because what she is forgetting that you play cricket in all kind of weather, it’s a man sport. Nothing against DRC, she is a nice person but since I’m a “Seedha Saada” guy I wanted to be fair. I even think Khansahab treat you like a man. Guys have little banters here and there, but it’s normal among men. So I’ll say even Khansahab is your friend.
Yeah Physics, Geometry, algebra, and Calculus are important subjects in engineering. My favorite in Mathematics is Laws of Probability, it’s geeky and fun.
I have heard of classic leg spinner weapons like leg break, googly, and flipper but do you think a leg spinner can ball a doosra? I wonder.
Munir
Good one man! Most Indian movies are just plain garbage. I remember an old Indiana movie in which the actress said while crying, “I’m so unfortunate, my mother died before I was born and my dad died in an accident”. LOL.
My brother is playing with some local teams. In UAE, this good season for Cricket, as weather is nice and we get very hot summers and can only play well in winters.
A few days, my bank team (my own branch team, including ME) played some “Friendly” T10 games with a few teams of our own corporate customers and a team from our head office. This was like a Cricket Festival, with a lot of games/ fun/ food/ Music/ etc. etc. for our corporate customers and their families/ kids.
Last year we had a similar event at Sharjah Cricket Stadium (yes the original), but this year CBFS Stadium was busy and so we opted for another venue.
Sharjah Cricket Club (CBFS) is my own corporate relationship, and I often meet Mr. Abdul Rahman Bukhatir, in line of duty, as well as Mr. Zahid Noorani who is not only a customer but a personal friend too.
Thanks for the warm welcome Awas, Theossa and Mohd Munir (even tho Munir was reminiscing something icy, which infact reminded me of Dawlence ad, i think it was).
Awas: LOL @ ur comment “Even though Theoessa has smoked all kind of pods,”
Theo is more budnaam than bura! He is unpopular among the LS gals because of his Deer Hunting and Salmon Fishing expeditions and the way he describes his hunting galore with blood and gore like, a shikari, a machera and on top of that he is a Pathan living in the US and his blunt comments are depicting a wrong picture of him. Ask Natalie and she will tell you about his real self.
People seem to be discussing a lot of Abdul, must be a very important figure on LS. hmm desert rose… a beautiful flowering plant but produces deadly toxin!
Yeah Javed, my honesty and my “Seedha pun” has given me a bad boy reputation here on LS but the people who know me think different, chicks at my office call me sexy theossa and they sexually harass me all the time which I don’t mind -:)
Awas, you ever wonder why Abdul like Statistics? Because I think as a cricketer this subject comes natural to him and I bet in near future he’ll be a number wizard.
Also, if you had smoking that U.K. Pod at least you’ll be feeling better now. So don’t say no to smoking.
Theossa,regarding your question of whether a leg spinner can bowl a doosra is being answered. Well a legspinner turns the ball away any how so a doosra doen’t really need to be applied and a legspinner could turn his leg break much more than bolwing a doosra. Therefore, a leg spinner to be an effective matchwinner will have to also try to master the googly and top spinner whereas bowling the doosra won’t really have much of an effect and pretty much just accomplishes his stock delivery.
Meanhile have u heard of the “jalibee ball”. I have created this ball. Well that one can probably be bolwed by a legspinner. However, I don’t look to have more than 3 variations as it becomes complicated and you are better of just keeping your game plan simple and looking to develop on those skills you’ve already developed.Unless your shane warne ofcourse !
I wonder how many twists and turns are there in a Jalibee Ball? Its like kabhee ball agay tou kabhee bowler aagay. Or, kabhee ball peechay tou batsman aagay aur kabhee wicketkeeper neechay tou ball oooper! Abdul have you ever heard of a Russ Gulla Ball and a Chapli Kebab Shot? Ask theossa he will show you the technique of how to extract the best of russ of a gulla ball and how to play with Chapli Kebab.
Btw, how do you fill the sheera in a Jalaibee? You fry the Jalaibee first and then you make the sheera separately and then take a syringe and a needle fill it with sheera and inject it in the Jalaibee. Viola …………………………….. there you go, Jalaibees are ready in a POD.
Abdul, what is a “Jalibee ball”? It can’t be a straighter one from a leg spinner as it is a jalibee, I wonder what it could be? My guess is it’s a conventional leg spin which swings in the air first? I don’t know about Russ Gulla ball which Javed mentioned but Chapli Kabab shot is played in Peshawar in which Batsman hook a bouncer over his head and top of the wicket keeper using the face of the bat. It’s a dangerous shot which need some terrific hand, eye, face, and back foot coordination but when you eat Chapli Kababs made in cow fat you don’t care anymore.
I watched the Islam and Science programme. It was interesting, however I have studied that at great length in Religious Studies and Philosophy.
It must have been an eye opener for those who did not know the extent of how prosporous our civilisation once was.
The Muslim world may not be as influnetial nowadays, with regards to medicine, but in the Middle Ages, they were considered revolutionary and so ahead of the barbarians in the Western World.
I watched it mith my parents and it was a bit embarrassing when the sexual connotations kept coming up.
P.s that comment about putting extra layers on was meant for Awas but I put Abdul’s name there by accident. Apologies.
I will stop being nice then
P.p.s. I wouldn’t want to spoil the BF-GF relationship Theossa
I thought the best way to get rid of a migraine is to **** someone?
Well I’ve not TRIED it, if that’s the meaning someone can potentially get….
The reason I’m curious is cos, migraines are caused by lack of blood flow in the brain (inter alia) and sexual activity is meant to make the brain “active”, if you know what I mean
That was so embarrassing when they were talking about that. I ran out of the living room so fast and into the conservatory!
My parents started laughing.
Hmm yeh I guess maybe the saying originates from there. However, the way it was implied was that the headache was caused by it and not a pre-requisite.
DRC, I wish I could trust your Innocence but “Eik nayam mien do tulwarien nahin reh suktien”. I’m the innocent of this blog and not you. But you know what? I’ll give the benefit of the doubt since all I care about to have peace and harmony on LS and no rifts between anyone.
Gotta go guys, have nice rest of the day.
Are you trying to tell us that you are not only Bholee but Sharmilee? Come on you are 21 or 22 now and your parents were even laughing, you should sit down and listen to the adult discussion otherwise how are you going to know about the realities of life?
Awas my best figures in a match are 5 wickets for 1 run in a t20. I was 15 when doing this but don’t rate it as my greatest bowling performance which was 3-47 in an adult game or 3-3 in a juniors game. I’ve had many great bowling performanes. Probably to many to choose.
My best ever game was when I scored 20 of 8 balls and took 2/2 in 3 overs in a school t20fixture. As regards to club it will probably be picking up 3 wickets and than scoring 40 odd to win the game. But overall bowling has been my priority and role for what I’m reknown for with batting being a bonus.
On the subject of speaking Punjabi and Urdu…. I think its on the cricket page……… never mind I will write here.
You all have said enough about national language and regional language and whether speaking Punjabi among non-punjabi audience is OK or not? Awas has made some sensible comments as usual. The point is …. courtesy demands even if one person in that group does not understand that language, people must speak in that language which is understood by all.
The educated and well off Punjabis not only want to speak in Urdu but they are more anxious to see their children speak good Urdu. Those who don’t care are obviously paindoos.
And, btw, this language problem is not restricted to Punjabi vs. Urdu and it is not just a Pakistani problem but, it is a global issue. For example here the French do the same as Punjabis and those French who are rich they send their kids to English medium schools, colleges and Universities. They even send them to the US for higher education and also have a second home in the US like, Florida and California (these are the two most popular destinations for the Canadian French population).
The Arabs here want the Jumma Sermon in Arabic only. Just because the Qur’an is in Arabic doesn’t mean the qutba must also be in Arabic only. Islam is not for Arabs only but, for everyone else on this planet earth i.e., whoever wants to be a Muslim. And, people cannot learn languages that easily, especially Arabic & French are very difficult not as much as Chinese and Japanese still very difficult for adults to comprehend it thoroughly. There is a difference between spoken Arabic and Nahavi or the classical and when you want to discuss serious issues its not easy to understand without translation.
The Chinese don’t care about any other language but, they are forced to learn French and they do learn it here and their kids are fluent in French. But, they also learn English because of the multicultural atmosphere.
Abdul, seriously I am think you mean business, I thought you didn’t mean it but you certainly know how to play cricket.
I am also impressed by your knowledge of cricket and spin bowling, I am agree actually that you should always keep your ambitions high and stamp your authority, whether it is playing cricket, or studying. Aim high.
You are young and I am wish you success in cricket and studies.
Even if you speak Punjabi all the time, you are not like a Paindoo.
It’s difficult to explain, but for eg you don’t say “I am agree”.
And you can reason, talk, you show maturity and you are sensible. You don’t stamp your authority whether it is cricket, politics, girls or boys, or studies.
The point is not about speaking languages it is about behaving in public, displaying courtesy and modesty i.e., if in a Mehfil there are a few non-Punjabi speaking folks, do you speak ONLY in Punjabi? Or, you care about the other people who don’t understand and speak in Urdu or English which is understood by ALL.
When you guys talk ‘baqwaas’ I just say chi chi and go read or do something else. What more can I expect from a male orientated board
Khan sahab
I find it funny when people say I am sensible LOL, but if you say so.
You know when I was about 3 years old, I could not speak English, albeit the alphabet. My parents taught me Urdu/Punjabi first and I only started speaking fluent English at the age of 5.
When I was in nursery I used to talk in Urdu/Punjabi with the staff and teachers hehe. Taught them a thing or too as well
Once again ……. like I said b4, there is no problem in speaking any language but when you “stamp your authority” on everyone by forcing people to listen to you in Punjabi only, then you are a paindoo. Bakaoz you don’t care about anyone else but the language you speak is more important to you than any other language or people.
Some Punjabi guy responded to a similar question by saying this:
kuch lokan di sochni eh hai k punjabi bolan da matlab hai dooji zubaan nu pare karna hai…par nahi…eh bahut waddi galat fehmi hai…na samjhi hai…punjabi bare lokan nu aware karan da matlab eh nahi k tusi Urdu nu chaddo…ehda matlab eh hai k jithe 2 punjabi khade ne oh aapis ch punjabi bolan…kyo k uhna dona di madari zubaan punjabi hai…je oh Urdu ch gal karan tan eh sharam naak hai…jithe dooja banda punjabi nahi hai..uthe tuhanu kise common bhasha ch gal karni payegi & uhde ch koi problem b nahi hai…
main aj kal dekhi ch reh riha…ethe zyada log Urdu bolan/samjhan aale milange…and mainu koi mushkil ya takleef nahi hai Urdu bolan ch…. par je main punjab javan te uthe ja ke Urdu bolan…eh te sharam di gal hai na ?

This is the philosophy of a Paidoo and this is how he thinks!
yeh i so agree with you. This is somewhat a male oriented blog. Some messages are confusing as if they are sending each other subliminal messages, not to be understood by anyone else other than their own clan.
lol, to be honest I woudnt want to know what they actually mean…or refer to etc.
does anyone else think, jokes when said in punjabi are funnier than urdu?
I am glad you mentioned that…what you speak. I said the same in comment 93 on the main thread. I’m glad I am not the only one. Perceptions are worse than reality.
LOL @ subliminal messages, VP we are not a clan, this is so typical of guys that they use a vocabulary which is common among guys only and gals seldom pay any heed to those expressions, connotations or whatever you may call them hence they don’t know what it means but, they are not subliminal messages.
For e.g., in Karachi when guys see a girl who is very smart they call her Gajjak and when they want to refer to a particular girl for whom one of his friends is head over heels, they say “tumharee Cutto” the word Cutto is so typical Karachiite that other than Karachi no one uses it.
Its like kids these days use words repeatedly

I am agree on that……. Jokes sunanay walay per munhasar hai, chahay wo Punjabi may ho ya Urdu may ….. if you ask abdul to tell you a joke you might laugh without understanding it.
Punjabi guys say, in Punjabi Hurr Gull day 2 matlab haingay! O kainda, Cudd kay dikhao. Kainda…. Chudd do ina we 2 matlab hainge.
Well, thats sheer ignorance because in Urdu also they say;
Urdu itni shusta zubaan hai kay hurr baat kay Zoo mainay hotay hain
Poocha; nikal ker dikhao
Jawab mila: rehnay dou iskay bhee 2 mainay hain.
Now, it depends on who says what and how he presents it. Telling jokes is an art.
Rule number one is never tell jokes when you are sitting, stand up and say!
Don’t ask me why?
Vanilla smells nice, thats why I chose this name. to be honest i couldnt think of any other ones (not very creative). I like chocolate too.
I like cricket, esp the 20-20s and one day cricket matches. they are colourful and fast. test matches i find very dull.
and jalebi ball and gol gappa ball etc i cant really differentiate (embarrassed).
Vanilla, chocolate, goal gappa…not much left after that…Loll
We all like that stuff. Lately, I have been thinking of Kanji a lot. The one made out with purple (almost black) carrots that they make in a Matka with Kalwanji and what not in it. The drink of this stuff is tangy and lovely. If you still don’t know what it is ask your folks… Javed at least, I ‘m sure will know what I’m talking about.
The reason I was thinking of it lately is that recently in a Lebanese Rest. They served some of those carrots which were exactly the same. So, I guess we have a lot of influence from Arab food as well.
Folks just coming back from a meeting but thought some of you might find the following article useful.
Just because a product’s marketing gives it an aura of health doesn’t necessarily mean it’s good for you. Here, eight notorious health food impostors, plus smarter swaps that up the nutritional ante and still give you the flavor you crave.
Baked potato chips
Yes, they’re lower in fat. But they’re still high in calories and low in nutrients, with little fiber to fill you up.
Smarter sub: Popcorn. You’ll get the salt and crunch of chips plus fiber, and around 65 percent fewer calories per cup. Look for oil-free microwave popcorn or brands that are air-popped or popped in healthful oils such as olive or canola.
Health bonus: Heart-healthy whole grains. Adults who eat popcorn take in as much as 2 1/2 times more whole grains than people who do not, according to a recent study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association.
Try: Good Health HalfNaked pre-popped popcorn, made with olive oil. One serving (4 cups) has 120 calories, 0 g sat fat, 4 g fiber.
Gummy fruit snacks
Although these products may contain some juice, they’re usually nothing more than candy infused with vitamins. They also contain high fructose corn syrup, which is linked with obesity, and heart-unhealthy partially hydrogenated oils.
Smarter sub: Fresh or dried fruit. Both are packed with filling fiber, which you’ll miss if you opt for gummy snacks.
Health bonus: Cancer-fighting antioxidants. Real fruit is loaded with immune-boosting nutrients that fruit-flavored snacks could never mimic. A recent Greek study found that women who ate the most fruits and veggies were the least likely to develop any type of cancer.
Light ice cream
Light ice cream can have fewer calories than regular, but there’s no guarantee. Take Häagen-Dazs Dulce de Leche light ice cream: With 220 calories per 1/2 cup serving, it’s still higher in calories than the average full-fat ice cream, which has around 140 calories per serving. What’s more, some light ice creams can lack the rich taste you crave, so you’re less satisfied and may be inclined to eat more than one serving.
Smarter sub: Dairy-free ice cream. Soy and coconut milk ice creams may save you a few calories, and they have a creamy, satisfying texture.
Health bonus: Digestion-friendly fiber. Some dairy-free ice creams are made with chicory root, a natural source of inulin, a prebiotic fiber that can increase healthy bacteria in the gut and help the body absorb calcium and iron.
Try: Turtle Mountain Purely Decadent, made with coconut milk. One serving (1/2 cup) of vanilla has 150 calories, 7 g sat fat, and 6 g fiber. (Studies show that the saturated fat in coconut may not raise cholesterol like the saturated fat in butter and meat.)
Diet soda
In a 2008 study, researchers linked drinking just one diet soda a day with metabolic syndrome — the collection of symptoms including belly fat that puts you at high risk of heart disease. Researchers aren’t sure if it’s an ingredient in diet soda or the drinkers’ eating habits that caused the association
Smarter sub: Flavored seltzer water. It has zero calories and is free of artificial sweeteners but provides fizz and flavor. Beware of clear sparkling beverages that look like seltzer yet contain artificial sweeteners — they’re no better than diet soda. Or try a sparkling juice; we recommend watering it down with seltzer to stretch your calories even further.
Health bonus: Hydration (without chemicals). Water is essential for nearly everybody process.
Try: Your supermarket’s low-cost seltzer brand. The taste is the same as the bigger name brands.
‘Calorie-free’ spray margarine
Even though some spray margarines claim to be “calorie-free,” labeling laws allow products with fewer than 5 calories per serving to claim to have zero calories. So, while one spritz may be inconsequential, the whole bottle could have as much as 900 calories.
Smarter sub: Spray-it-yourself olive oil. In this case, a bit of real fat is more healthful and flavorful — and within a reasonable calorie range if you watch your portions. Investing in an olive oil mister ensures you don’t put on too much.
Health bonus: Decreased inflammation throughout the body, which helps your heart and lowers cancer risk, thanks to monounsaturated fatty acids.
Try: Misto olive oil sprayer. Find one at any kitchen store for around $10.
Nonfat salad dressing
Fat-free salad dressings are often packed with sugar — so your dressing may be loaded with calories. Ironically, a salad without fat is not living up to its potential. “You need a little fat to absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K and other nutrients,” says Katherine Tallmadge, RD, spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association.
Smarter sub: Oil-based salad dressings. You’ll get good-for-you fats instead of the saturated fat found in some creamy dressings. Look for ingredients like olive oil, vinegar, and herbs.
Health bonus: Vision protection. As many as five times more carotenoids — antioxidants that are essential for eye-sight — are absorbed when salads are consumed with fat rather than with no fat.
Try: Newman’s Own Olive Oil & Vinegar Dressing. Two tablespoons have 150 calories, 2.5 g sat fat, 0 g fiber.
Low-fat cookies
Do you remember the SnackWell’s craze? Low-fat cookies are still popular, and many dieters think they can indulge guilt free. The problem is that most of these snacks are made with extra sugar, which means they often have just as many calories as the full-fat version, if not more.
Smarter sub: Oatmeal cookies. These are a great way to indulge a cookie craving while also getting whole grains. Not all are created equal, though: Skip those made with high fructose corn syrup, white flour, and butter in favor of varieties made with honey or cane juice, whole wheat flour, and oil.
Health bonus: Lower cholesterol. The fiber found in oatmeal keeps your body from absorbing bad cholesterol.
Try: Kashi TLC Cookies. One cookie has 130 calories, 1.5 g sat fat, 4 g fiber.
100-calorie snack packs
You might want to skip these if you’re trying to lose weight. A recent study showed that people may eat more food and calories if the portions are presented in small sizes and packages. With smaller serving sizes, study participants didn’t feel the need to regulate their intake, so they ate more than one portion before feeling satisfied
its really interesting to see how people make different food dishes.
I recently had a nice dish made out of seekh kebabs mixed in gravy, which was scrumptious. it does involve a lot of mehnat as its a combination of two dishes mixed together.
i have never heard of kanji before. the only dish i know made out of carrots is gajar ka halwa
Khansahab,
Chicken tikka with paratha is the best. There is also this halwa which is made in pure ghee. There was this place Bandoo Khan in Karachi and that had the best halwa and kaba paratha.
I think chicken tikka masala can be eaten when ones craving for spicey stuff whereas butter chicken is creamy and ‘sondha’.
i will prefer chicken tikka masala
Yea they all are really good the ones you mention, and add to that Al Habib Karahi on the karachi highway. I like Nihari and Biryani but I really miss karahi and the kabab parathas. I kind of stopped liking rice after I ate Chinese food for 7 consecutive days. That was it– my thing for rice just turned around– now I just like naan or normal roti.
Pizza Hut man. Kings and Queens went out of bussiness when pizza hut came. But p[izza hut over there is much better than here for some reason. There was Ghaffar Kabab place, it probably had the best kababs. The most ultimate is BBQ tonight though, the lambchops were the best.
I still remember the taste of their Chicken Tikka pizza, it is the best thing I ever had in my life.
I remember they used to come to our school with their Tikka Pizza and there used to be a long queue. Oh those were the days
Actually Omer, Kings and Queens were very good when they were around. They had these wonderful subs, and very good quality pizzas. The atmosphere was very good too, even though the pizza’s were not as expensive as Pizza Hut & Co, simpletons didn’t go to Kings and Queens.
Awas that Kanji is not Karachi delicacy but Lahore’s and its made from Shalgham or Shaljam with Kalonjee which is basically onion seed, yes its nice the pink water. The Arabic pink dill pickles are the same but not exactly the Pakistani version. The serve it as starters with Hummus and Mutabbal and they also put them in the Shawarma.
I had to go out for dinner right now otherwise I would have taken you all down in the memory lane by talking about HANIFIA’s HUNTER BEEF & Beef Burger.
ttyl.
Yep those dill pickles, that’s what I meant. Believe me the taste is exactly the same. I trust my taste buds. I think the stuff they put in the pickled water cannot be much different.
Oh yeah, hunter beef. I loved it. We used to get it supplied from Karachi until they stared selling in Twilton market, Lahore.
Thank you for saying you prefer Chicken Tikka Masala over Butter Chicken BAKAOZ, this Butter Chicken is not authentic Moghul cuisine but, a recent creation by some amateur Bangladeshi restaurant cooks in the UK and North America to cater to the needs of Gora Aam Aadmi. Those ignorant blokes like the bland taste and they think its a spicy curry.
Generally the way they have been preparing Butter Chicken in restaurants is by using masala packets loaded with MSG and then adding a tin of evaporated milk in the end and let it simmer for a while. And, recently some of the cooks are using 15% cooking cream. They also use the same cream for Kofta Malai Makhani…….. another new jazzy name by Indian Restaurant Chefs.
The real authentic roghni murgh masala has disappeared and Butter Chicken has taken its place, because thats hard to make also, th various types of Koftas like, the kucchay keemay kay koftay and then the cooked keema pees ker koftay along with roasted chic peas and spices. Also, the stuffed koftay with onion, green chillies, green corriander and mint.
And the Nargisi Koftay (with egg stuffing) are hard to be seen these days. Neither the restaurant guys know how to cook nor the new generation Khawateen, they all rely totally and entirely on SHAN MASALA PACKETS and don’t know how to make the authentic koftay! Only a few well known gharanas keep the tradition alive and take pride in their cooking……. things like Pasanday, damm ka keema, Rampuri Stew, Taar Gosht, Achar Gosht, Do Piaza etc. are a rarity. Like, the Channa Daal Halwa topped with Chaandi ka warq and loaded with malai………….
I don’t mind eating burgers or pizza once in a while but when it comes to good food, I prefer the traditional culinary cuisine and my taste buds are very pedigreed. I just cannot accept variations in the old traditional dishes. However, one can always create new recipes and keep on improvising and thats another thing. But, you cannot deviate from the original recipe of Yakhni Pulao by adding a packet of Shan Masala. Its criminal.
You missed the nutritional values of our famous half-a-kilo Chapali Kabab made with pure beef and tar-ba-tar (deeply) fried in wholesome cow’s charbee (fat), gratifyingly guzzled down with a meter long Naan
Our Pakistani men while eating have only one philosophy … “Jo Raat Qaber (grave) Mein Likhy Hai, Wo Baher Ho Naheen Sakti”.
“bandar kia jaanay adrak ka maza”! …loll Good one.
VP, the type of kofte you mention is mouthwatering. I love them too. Tell your mum to send me an invitation, next time she has a Daawat
My mum makes the most wonderful biriani that all relatives and friends admire…real authentic stuff made out of yakhni…nothing like what you get here at desi restaurants which is just rice added in slain gosht.
Lamb biriani is the authentic one, not chicken. I think the main difference in pilao and biriani is that a lot of milk and yoghurt is added in biriani and more work and delicate handling is involved in making it.
Please do not stereotype all ‘new generation khawateen’. None of the women in our family use packet masala and such substitutes in their cuisine. I have followed suit and I don’t use them either.
Sweetie,
I won’t get in the way of your GF-BF rishta He’s all yours
Oh my God DRC. And have you reported this matter to the police?
Now, lets see how many mistakes rather bloopers, Sweetie and Theo’s famous President George Dubiya made. Ermmmmmm they are countless but, lemme post a few of his butchered language bloopers.

DRC - I don’t know your family so my comments are not directed towards your family but, trust me more than 90% of the people use Shan Masala Packets and they proudly say that. And thats why the food taste just the same if you go from one house to the other. But, there are a few who are home proud and kitchen proud who use everything from scratch. You eat in desi restaurants they do the same and over here in desi restaurants, whenever you order biryani you see the food colour instead of saffron, I don’t understand why they do it, because here you can afford saffron, its not too expensive as compared to India / Pakistan.
Anyways, I didn’t read the comment from VP when she wrote Bandar kya janay adrak ka mazaa? Thats very apt but, khansahab might ask what is adrak? Like my niece once asked ‘what are you cooking?’ I said, I am making bhindi and she asked what is bhindi? And in the meantime she came near the cooker and saw bhindi in the karai and said, “Oh……. Lady fingers ! “
You don’t have to put me in a situation where the khawateens get embarrassed, you must have seen there is already a Digitally Recorded Computer message telling me to stop stereotyping about Khwarteens.
Traditionally Yakhni pulao is made from beef and not lamb and, yes the breast meat (not chops) are used because of the fatty type…..chewable bones which in case of beef are more meaty than lamb. However, I also add the shank meant to the Pulao because that doesn’t have the raisha (fiber) or threads and it tastes good. They say the test of a good pulao is you don’t need anything else, not even raita to eat with. Whereas, biryani without raita is “kimpossible” to imagine.
I never eat biryani at restaurants because of the food colour they use and also, you have said it right, “its saalan with rice” in the traditional biryani there is no red chilly powder, the colour of the saffron should not dominate it should be partially saffronish and white. And, the rice must not be sticky but, “khilwa” and yet very tender and soft.
LOL…. I was right about khansahab he was not sure whether it is garlic or ginger but finally he guessed it right. VP, thats what we say “hara masala” stuffed in Koftay. Also the same ingredients plus a little adrak and lemon is added for making stuffed shami kebabs. Actually the original shami kebabs from Syria does not have any stuffing. Its the Iranians and later us desis started stuffing hara masala in the shami kebabs and the Iranians gave a name “Shikam Purr Kebabs” Shikam means stomach and Purr is filled.
Its time for Paratha breakfast and then off to work…… Theo what kinda sandwich you have for lunch today? Same old Tuna?
oh i remember during my undergrad degree, i used to go to my SU to have sandwiches. you could get as many fillings as u would like just for £1.99. You could get bagels too.
(i am not greedy, even tho i may sound like a lalchi insaan)

Vanilla iPod, Two thumbs up!
I’m born of June 3 and your June personality traits mimic all my good traits. Why they never talk about the bad traits? Oh, I don’t have any -:)
It’s a bit different for me because I was born in July and most of what it says is true about me…..and interestingly most of that info is not mentioned in the other months!
Apart from that there’s no reason for me to believe this kinda stuff.
LOL khansahab, the July months has the following traits: Concerned about people’s feelings, Not revengeful, Sensitive and forms impressions carefully, Caring and loving.
Ok, that was Bush then, what you say now? We have a president who is eloquent and has an intoxicating personality. The new Messiah as German newspaper described him -:)
Khansahab, I forgot to mention another July trait which you definitely don’t possess i.e. Strong sense of sympathy. This trait definitely belongs to DRC.
Sweetie
I
told you so about DRC -:) Look at her August traits: takes risks, No self-control, Has an “every thing’s peachy” attitude, and the traits that need good attention: in need of “that someone”, Always a suspect
Now that I have blurted out my birth month, who is gonna send me birthday cards?
Here is why I said it is rubbish by analysing my month:
Aug
“Outgoing personality”….rubbish…I’m more homely type. I only love travel.
“takes risks”….sometimes…we all do.
“feeds on attention”. …YES! Don’t we all?
“No self-control”…complete rubbish.
“Kind hearted”….Yep!
“Self-confident”. ..yep!
“Loud and boisterous”…I don’t think so.
“VERY revengeful”…. Not so far.
“Easy to get along with and talk to”….yep!
Has an “every thing’s peachy” attitude…don’t know that!
“Likes talking and singing”….no singing…only listening
“Loves musi”c….yep
“Daydreame”r…Never!
“Easily distracted”….only for LS
“Hates not being trusted.”…YEP!
“BIG imagination”…. If you say so!
“Loves to be loved”…. Definitely, who doesn’t?
Hates studying…Yep
[in need of “that someone”. Longs for freedom. Rebellious when withheld or restricted. Lives by “no pain no gain” caring. Always a suspect. Playful. Mysterious. “charming” or “beautiful” to everyone. stubborn. curious. Independent. Strong willed. A fighter.] …Now its getting too much, I give up.
In the same way, I can easily analyse at least one or two people here. Any volunteers?
Khansahab has brilliant intelligence (you might know this already) for just a 21 year old. The thing you don’t know about him is: he has quite a personality to go with it, attractive face with high cheek bones, and large illuminated eyes. A lady killer by default -:)
To be honest we neither think all Punjabi girls are brainless, nor do we think all Punjabi men are Paindoos. Certainly people like Awas, the politician Shah Mahmood Qureshi and some Punjabi gentlemen I know, are anything but Paindoo. By the grace of the Almighty, Awas is more cultivated and mature than almost everyone that I know.
HOWEVER we think a considerable number of Punjabi women are quite attractive ba-kaouz sarra ‘ussan Punjab mai hai….
Agreed Khansahab, I especially like the beauties from Multan, there is something about them, the way they look and they way they talk Siraikee, very salty -:)
A lot of guys like the Seraiki ladies in villages- they are usually wheatish in complexion and considered attractive.
I had a friend who was once travelling from Karachi to Lahore in a bus and there as one of these ladies. He felt attracted to her and complimented her and she said, “Mundey tu baaz aaja”
The ones I like are the fashionable and fair skinned ones, some of them look Arabic or Eastern European if they dye their hair. They look so hot
Awas, you know when we’ll be old and smoking a “Hoqqa” full of opium, sitting in a “Charpai”, coughing our lungs out, Abdul will be destroying batting lines all around the World with his googly, jalibee, and what not. Too bad he’s British, what a loss to Pakistan! Shame on you Zardari.
Didn’t really get what you meant by comment 399…I know that Urdu phrase means that one doesn’t appreciate some good thing in his own house…..but I don’t get how that applies to our discussion?
Outgoing personality. takes risks. feeds on attention. No self-control. Kind hearted. Self-confident. Loud and boisterous. VERY revengeful. Easy to get along with and talk to. Has an “every thing’s peachy” attitude. Likes talking and singing. Loves music. Daydreamer. Easily distracted. Hates not being trusted. BIG imagination. Loves to be loved. Hates studying. in need of “that someone”. Longs for freedom. Rebellious when withheld or restricted. Lives by “no pain no gain” caring. Always a suspect. Playful. Mysterious. “charming” or “beautiful” to everyone. stubborn. curious. Independent. Strong willed. A fighter.
I only agree with 10-11 of those statements.
Awas and Theo don’t worry birthday cards will be in the post
Yeah Awas too bad, why don’t Zardari, ISI, and Salim Altaf look for emerging talent in cricket? Our team needs some young blood. Why not put an “F Contract” (future prospect) together and pay young talent like Abdul, Mohd Amir, Saeed
Anwer Jr?
Awas, what country will Abdul play for if Pakistan wants to bring him back? I hope he says yes to such an offer.
Sweetie
Where are you? Look, what DRC wrote in her comment# 402 which should have been comment# 420, she said, “You also do not have to ’sell’ Khansahab’s admirable qualities. I know about them already, winks”. What’s going on here?
You believe me now?
DRC
Show yourself, which qualities you possess? I bet you are not going to tell us because Wicked Witch of West will be all over you -:)
I guess im very trusting. I did read the comment but didn’t think much of it until u pointed it out. Thanks
I wont be all over DRC, u see i AM straight HAHAHA
Sweetie, “La hola wala quuwat”, I didn’t mean literally all over DRC, you have such a sick imagination but I’m pleased that you know the “Real DRC” now.
DRC and Khansahab
I’m 44 years old and born on June 3rd so do a little math. Oh, I’m too old my back hurts so I’m gonna do some stretching. Ehhhhh, it feels good.
DRC
You actually said yes to almost all of them so I was quite right. Plus you said you are “Easy”, I mean to talk to and such -:)
tell us about how you got this name. it seems like having a greek or latin descent. something like medussa..hehe but instead of serpents coming out of the head there is sumthing coming out of the mouth…
Hmmmm… Theooooo u were right!!! @ DRC’s comment ‘I don’t mind saying it to Khansahab as I know him .’!!
BF, u have to pick NOW! . Either tat or i dump u lolllll
Awas u can be BF! lol
Ok, you two psychoanalysts, I wasn’t running away, so here is the problem:
First, I need a head examined, but it’s not mine (and I promise you it’s not Abdul the wizard’s either).
My symptoms are:
- Toota hua dill
- Victim of being stabbed in the back
- Anxiety
- Sleeplessness
- Tiredness
- Depression
- Generally not interested in anything and everything
- Searching for any light-hearted moments/jokes
- Other than that if you haven’t sussed much from my comments then what can I say?
Diagnosis and treatment please?
Watch out, as I hope you psychiatrists are not going to get trumped by a non psychiatrist like Theo or Sweetie
No way José no, not mine…that’s why I said “I need a head examined, but it’s not mine” A bit of a riddle isn’t it? I just threw that in to confuse you lot…Loll
Yesterday, I was not only busy at work, but Mother Nature played havoc here with 30 cm snow and it was very windy so, coming back home from work was painfully slow. Its not that cold just -7C but, it was windy and blowing snow, even ice pellets and still its snowing. It seems like I’ve missed a lot of action on the blog.
Btw, kis ko kis say pyar ho gaya? Rahul ko Bukhar ho gaya?
Aur NUN mame Saab ko kya ho gaya?
Aap kion NUN BUN gayeen?
DRC reminds of Mr. Darcey hmmmm what a character. I must have seen Pride and Prejudice at least 3 – 4 times. Thats because we have the DVD.
The funniest gay scene I have ever seen is in my favourite movie My Cousin Vinny when Joe Pesci goes to visit his cousin and his fried in prison…it was hilarious. There was no gay scene as such but just insinuations with words.
I saw it recently and mentioned it on V talk as well, I think it is in response to my comment that Munir sahab said he has also seen it….and then you also spoke about it.
It seems that all those symptoms stem from the very first symptom you mention.
Seems like they are suffering from heartbreak or have been let down by someone close to them.
I would advise the individual in question to try to occupy their time as best they can to try and divert their attention from the cause of the anxiety and depression.
Spend time with close friends and family. Start a new hobby or pursue hobbies which you may have neglected in the past. If you have a job, immerse yourself in your work. If you are a student, then immerse yourself in your studies.
I would advise against anti depressants and sleeping tablets as one can become reliant upon them. For sleeplessness try natural remedies like lavender scented oil on your pillow or a warm bath before sleeping. Another option is making oneself tired by exercising or keeping ocupied during the day.
Personally, in my opinion, I think we all experience something similar to this in our lifetime. Time is the only best healer, but in the interim we can help ourselves by picking ourselves back up and continuing with life. Life won’t stop for you.
I don’t know if this helps, I could say alot more but I will refrain for the time being.
The exams were OK, I know I did well on the first one but the second one was harder and longer and I missed 1 or 2 points in the end cos I ran out of time. Otherwise I think I will pass it, Inshallah!
LOL khansahab didn’t you notice my “sir-kazem”? I wrote exactly opposite of Dostana and Gay. Anyways, you are right, I don’t watch too many Bollywood movies and the very few that I have seen in the past few years is at someone’s house…. forced … bakaoz…. they were watching and they made us watch.
Awas, sirf Pray say kaam nahee chalta, hath paon bhe maro yaro!
Dhoondnay say tou Khuda bhee mil jaata hai, aur abhi tou tum jawan ho
Abhi tou tum jawan ho
Abhi tou tum jawan ho ( in Tahira Syed ishtyle)
ok so i was off the line, but i left psychology ages ago consultation will be free of charge and the patient should give his/her consent if u r speaking on their behalf!!
Thats my template or my fav line when people ask me “Yae aap nay banaya?” Did you cook this?” I say it with a poker face, aNo I have a fairy godmother who cooks for me.
DRC ok lemme Unfuse you, thats your worginal comment and you did not copy it from anywhere and, you don’t have any grudge against khansahab that you see him as a wet lettuce and, you won’t eat it cold in vengeance! OK, are you happy?
Now, I leave it for khansahab to reply to Darcey about the lettuce thingi.
khansahab; not only she is saying you are a vege but, a wet one and that too a spineless, bakaoz wet lettuce ka patta tou bilkull dheela murjhaya howa lagta hai, jisko ko log plate may hee chor detay, bakaoz, if it was crisp and fresh people would eat it kurum, kurum, kurum…. aur burp bhee na lain….
So, in my opinion this is a big insult on your part that she sees you like this and not only sees, but dhatai say blog per khullay aam kehti hai aur ek bar nahee 2 baar! So, all I can say is Hawwww Haiiiiiiiiiii
LOL at tiya pancha kerna……… but Awas, bavarchi khanay say bedroom may aap lay aye, blanket say ab Pamper per na ajana…….. khansahab ki kuch ParamPara aur Steethee bhee rekhna.
Tusi Punjabi Totay waikhday O? Garr walon noo pata chalay ga tou bist ho jai gee!
Nargas (Nargis) day totay waikhay O tusi? A Punjabi friend of mine has a collection of DOD’s (DVD’s) and sometimes during the cricket break (lunch time) he entertains us with those Punjabi sitcoms and dances. Some of them are hilarious and a few are vulgar but, its a part and parcel of Tehzeeb.
khansahab aNO, they are not fat and ugly. The ones I have seen are fine. The jokes are vulgar i.e., if only you can understand them otherwise “sir kay ooper say guzar jaingay”.
Pehlay exam pass kero, phir naokari dhoondo
Phir Chakri ka socho
Phir Chokri ko dekho
abi tum reproduction ka khowab dekhna mangta hai tou sirf XEROX photo copy ko God of Reproduction mano aur 2 – 4 poto kapy nikalo …. doosra kam tum kuch nai ker sakta.
Darcey my English is very ghareeb, but whatever little that I know, I don’t think the word ‘clever’ is considered as a compliment anymore, its like telling someone tum bari Chalaak ho. A sly fox is clever. But, there are better adjectives to give compliments such as, you must be really very intelligent, or talented, or a genius aiksutra, aiksutra.
I just remembered, as I had meant to mention it, when you wrote:
“khansahab is oblivious of how adrak tastes like..”
When I first quickly read it, I thought you said Aardvark. I wondered why khansahab would eat an Aardvark unless he is a Chinese who eat anything that moves. Sorry! my Urdu is not very Ameer when written in the english (as Abdul will have it) Loll.
VP not only khansahab but most of us won’t be able to eat anything there. I was in China and at official banquets where they served 26 course menu, twice I ended up eating only peanuts as starters and in the end vanilla ice cream. Everything else was so yucky, smiley and smelly that I had to pass. Things like Sea Cucumber, do you know what it is? Google it and see. Its ugly like a Karela and its jelly like wobbling and they eat it in one shot Slurrrrrpppppp. Getting normal water or bottled water was a big problem. They were serving Sake or rice wine and Perrier water and I asked for a glass of plain water, it took them 20 minutes and after 4 different waiters asked me what I want they brought me a mug of warm water.
Beijing cuisine is very bland and boring. The Cantonese and Szechuan cuisine is similar to what we eat. The best Chinese restaurants are in Karachi on Tariq Road, Tung Nan and Nan King.
I’m afraid you are wrong here…khansahab in Lahore yes, but not in food street…its in the Gaddafi Stadium and that’s not looking at cricket…just searching for pretty faces in the crowds
DRC
“essays to finish”? Forget about that when we are on LS.
Life and death here is in khansahab’s hands. He presses all the buttons. We just follow his orders
I listened to the song…but I’m afraid hes no Pavarotti… enjoyed the guitar though but doesn’t go with that desi voice. He is making me sleep with his Neend thing. I know, I know I’m a very bad critc
yeh the ustads were good. shafqat is also trained in classical singing but i think this is where the fame is. the older people like his singing and youngsters like his songs for the music.
i was watching Ratatouille (animation) today. it was very good! i wonder if anyone else has watched it.
its time to hit the bed!
Good nite and sweet dreams
Édith Piaf (19 December 1915 — 10 October 1963) was a French singer and cultural icon of partly Algerian and Italian descent who is almost universally regarded as France’s greatest popular singer. Legend has it that she was born on the pavement of Rue de Belleville
Thanks for the suggestion of taking Fairy God Mother avec moi but, that was once in a life time experience and it is enough. Besides, it was official and two weeks in China was a long journey where you are lost in the ocean of people. I don’t really enjoy myself in BIG cities like Beijing, Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata etc., I hate traffic jams and one of the reasons I avoid Toronto and NY where you are stuck in your car for 2 hours!
Andhekee, I wrote something welcoming you on V-talk 2, but since that page has been archived I am pasting it here:

You are a GF, and no one else can be that
Andheeke
I hope you don’t mind me say, you really don’t have to write like a text message. We don’t charge for number of words as LS is not a telephone service provider
. Not only is it difficult to write but difficult to read too (for me at least).
People in Pakistan generally still write emails like SMS messaging. Initially it was like that in the West too but it has evolved to normal typing. I guess people over there haven’t caught on yet. Typical like everything else!
lol awas!.sori my bad bt the reason i type like dat is usually cos i am typing from my fone.duno how to do paragraphs either and cos i aint got my laptop on so sir forgive me ! So do i have to type proper english nw? Hmm how do u do sir? A cup of tea wil do kindly..:
Khan Sahab …
Yes I agree, there is always a special place for a GF, and a Friend, and a Wife, and a Mehbooba, and a Just Friend, and a Mashooqa, etc. etc.
So we can one of each yeh ?
Tu Nahin Aur Sahi, Aur Nahin, Aur Sahi ;D
So we can have one of each yeh ?

Islam allows 4 wives and also gives a patriarchal role to men. So my interpretation of that is, men can marry 4 and “look after” as many women as they want
Plus there will be more women than men in this world, who will look after them?
Andehkee
Not all of us know you personally, so please can we have a brief introduction?
You can find more about myself, Awas and Javed A Khan on the “About Us” page.
wel im jus a simple person who likes to try and have their head high no matta what life throws…im a believer in trying not to let da bad stuff get to u…inshallah da big man has a plan for us all here..heres hoping its a gud one…i m in da uk is everyone else from there?…erm i like food esp muffins and kks!..erm my fav colour is blue and green…we shud have an intros page!..my train is taking its time and im cold…
I’m from Manchesta’ Andehkee….I’m just a simple person who believes that life is stressful and there is an assessment, an exam and mental challenge in every corner. My life has been a disaster zone of one exam after another. I have been trying to study and become something in life for as long as I can remember. It seems there is nothing else I was born to do. I’ve spent more time in my life stressing out about education, than anything else. I’ve spent more time STRESSING than STUDYING.
Apart from studies all I can think about is cricket, politics, girls and food.
I’m crazy about food. I ate a whole packet of Celebrations by myself yesterday. There have been occasions in my life when I’ve had pizza everyday for a week.
Khan Sahab…
“I am agree” with your ‘naughtiness’
kool..im from south east uk…bucks side…anyhow u should nt stress i mean ur b old and look back and think why did i waste all dat time stressing.then again sumtimes when u want sumting reali bad u wil keep goin…bt when do u admit defeat.anyway dnt stress too much your go bald and grey…dnt really like celebrations..prefer heroes!.and can reali overdose on skittles at times!.i thought we cudnt eat celebrations…mayb someone could do a haram chocs and sweets list if they got bored..
p.s sorry awas i know my typing!..think i will vanish now…..:|
happy new year to everyone on LS.
Abdul
Happy new year 2 u 2
Javed, I’ve been saying this for a while now that you have a “Kaali Zabaan”. You proved it yesterday when my $755 Orvis Zero Gravity Helios fly rod snapped in half while fishing! Thanks God it has 25 year warranty so I sent it back to get a new one. But my day was ruined because I didn’t bring a spare rod with me. It was a 4 wt, 9 ft, 4 piece rod and the fish was probably like 6 lb so I was surprised when it snapped because I caught bigger fish with the same rod. I use a light rod for that project because most the trout fish there are just 10” to 15” long and very few are big. Also, I like the feel of light rod when fish fights hard.
For those of you who don’t know what “Fly Fishing” is here is a brief explanation; there are streams or part of streams labeled as “Fly Fishing Project” where you can only fish using artificial flies as baits and no live bait like minnows, worms etc. are allowed. It is the most exciting fishing technique for trout, steelhead, and salmon where a special rod is used with a floating line. Most of the flies that are used as baits are floating flies resembling common bugs that fish eat at a specific stream. The other bait type is wet flies which resemble bugs underneath stream water or salmon eggs. Why fly fish? Because streams are open for fly fishing all year around contrary to Reel Fishing using live baits which is just seasonal.
The above short course will cost you $5. Please have your credit card number ready -:)

So, you got a posh iphone…nice one!
In that case its okay…I was just visualising you sitting in front of the computer and typing text messages which I thought is rather a waste. Sorry!
Theo
I happen to know Sweetie’s C/card number, here it is:
#420911 apparently, she doesn’t mind if you charge all at LS on her card
awas i do not have an iphone!but if u wud like to purchase me one i will not mind at all!..i have nokia n95 8gb unlimited net so pretty gud…anyway happy new year for 2morow! Bug u all nxt yr!..
Andheeke
I thought only iphones do such magic stuff…good to know your N95 does the business too. See my one only makes and receives calls…pretty ancient
Now would I like to purchase you one? Hummm!!! First, you will have to make me an offer that I can’t refuse
Awas
So you were right about Andheeke‘s text messaging and she has justified by saying that she uses cell phone for emails. “First, you will have to make me an offer that I can’t refuse
” Is there a condition that it must be hand delivered by the owner? Knowing you Awas, I guess that’s pretty much on the cards.
Anyways, this is for ALL OF YOU………. I am wishing everyone A VERY HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR.
Happy new year to you all.
awas you will have my duas that you will have a fab and successful year then again i would wish that for everyone so how about a box of heroes as we all need a hero in our lifes! Lol.. Happy new year 2009 guys and girls.. !..x.
Andheeke, by extending duas to Awas you sound more like a Barree Bouiya. Btw, let the world know how old are you? And where is your friend DRC?
Wasim, Sweetie, Andheeke and all those who have wished the New Year Greetings, thank you for that and may Allah give you more happiness, health and wealth in the year 2009 and beyond.

Agar Mara Kaala Zubaan Hoti, tou Tumara Natalie ka Moonh boat paylay Kala ho Jatee!
Man, you can make a “Natalie Ka Pottlie” (bundle) and keep her near your butt otherwise she will be hooked like a trout.
Thanks for the fly fishing tips to people, i.e., if they can really learn how to catch a trout or a salmon! But, in your cheap $5 quickie (short course) you didn’t mention about the Gum Boots and how deep you stand in the water? Or, you look for a rock to stand above the water?
Apart from the river, lake fishing is very popular here. After the ice is cleared, lake trout are in the shallow water and hungry like Natalie. They are no longer confined to deep water without as much to prey on. Hence, trout fishing is more like a rage among people who live close to these lakes and you know Canada is so full of sweet and fresh water lakes.
And my dear theologitst, trout fishing by using a fly rod is not like a date with Natalie yet, dressing properly for the occasion is a MUST. And the satisfaction of reeling in a big trout makes all the preparation worthwhile. After you have caught it, whether you release it or cook it, is not all that important and exciting.
It is all about the thrill of the chase —– Shikaar e murdaa saza vaar e shahbaaz nahee, jo kabootar pur jhaptnay mein muzza hai ay voh muzaa shayad kabootar kay lahoo mein bhee nahee. Chacha Ghalib nay issi “OKayyen” per ek Sher irshaad kiya hai.

As Javed says, its got to be something that needs to be hand delivered
Wicked Witch of the West
There is more to Theo than meets the eye. There is much more he does that he hasn’t told us yet…

Andheeke
You are asking Awas: “you want to b stuck in bed for a week wid da flu ………” wali?
For a second I thought it was an offer Awas would not refuse at any cost.
I g2g now take care guys! Have fun.
Ps
Birmingaon may desi people have no grass lawn in the backyard, they have cemented the whole yard and they keep Murghiyaan in Durbay! Sometimes on Alum Rock Road and in Pollock Shields in Glasgow you see murghiyaan turrdi phirrdi galiyaan ich.

DRC
May be it was Murgh then?
No but there is a bull there. Hehe that qualifies it to be a ‘gaon’
My new year’s resolutions:
1) Lose weight
2) Get a girlfriend
3) Become more positive about everything
4) Stop being lazy
5) Become more professional
khansahab
Whilst crystal gazing…I see a bright future 4u.
The Force tells me that three names beginning with S, D and A will bring immense happiness in your life.
As four are allowed, the fourth one will be a bit of a struggle…but you might get lucky in 2010.
Hmmmm S,D and A ?!
khansahab
Get number 2 out of your list, BAKAOUZ
1. You have a Maghribi Churail wo bhee cruel
2. And, why do you want to have a GF if you don’t wanna do anything?
3. Professional in what?
Awas
If you rearrange S, D and A it will be SAD and how come sadness will bring happiness in his life, jotishi ji? And whats wrong with 2009?
Javed A Khan
I didn’t get that “Maghribi churail” thingy?
As Javed A Khan must be still enjoying his sleep, let me translate on his behalf.
Maghribi = Western
Churail = Witch
OOhhhh
Right…
I get it now
GF is and will remain a GF

Sorry the third one features adil rashid.
khansahab Javed A Khan “I didn’t get that “Maghribi churail” thingy?
The reason you didn’t get it is because your Urdu is bahot ghareeb (very poor) its the literal translation of wicked witch of the west….. witch = Churial and maghrib = west and still you didn’t get it? Never mind
It was like Hikmat yaar Gul Badin = Doctor Friend Flower Body.
Ps.
Oh, Awas has already done the translation for me, I was on the other page and did not notice that. Sank You Awas….. bucchay ki urdu ghareeb hai kya ker saktay? Buccha tou khair kya, bahot say baron ko bhee baaz time samaj nahee aati kion kay
Aati hai Urdu Zubaan Aatay Aatay
Pps
Once on BBC MB I wrote the same verse and DRC‘s darling Afsana (likh rehi hoon) said, hey why are you pulling my Aati’s leg?
Here is a question for Awas:
Why do Memon men take pleasure in watching xxx movies in rewind mode?
That’s because, they like to see the PROSHTITUTE giving the money back !
We have been discussing Imran Khan and Jemima for the past couple of days, here is one on them, its not new some of you may have already heard / read it before.
Imran Khan asks Jemima on their first wedding night, ‘Darlin did you like my shot between the two fine legs?’ She replied, it was a good shot but, you are not the opening batsman.
Javed…did you have to bring that up again?! Yes stopping pulling my leg…hahaha that was funny!
Ms. Unseen/Cloaked/Camouflaged a.k.a. Andheeke
I release most of the fish I catch, and only take big fish home. On your other comment about hunting deer, what’s wrong with that? The chicken, beef, and lamb you eat are all KILLED in some way so why I’m the bad guy and you or not -:) I also hunt North American black beer, coyotes, and wild boars for fun and fur purposes and that actually helps the animal population. I’ll explain you how; Legal hunting is very different from poaching. We the hunters pay the state and federal governments to manage wild life through hunting, fishing and trapping licenses and through federal excise taxes collected from the sale of hunting fire arms, target shooting, and fishing equipment and motor boat fuels. Loss and degradation of habitats through urban sprawl is the greatest problem facing fish and wildlife. The money obtained from hunting license and sale of fire arms is used to enhance and protect habitats and help maintain a healthy population of wild life. Mind you, hunting is only seasonal and is done when there is an excess population of certain specifies. Governments have guidelines for hunting only full grown animal. I hope this will help you and others clear a lot of misconceptions spread by the liberal media who wants gun control. Here in Pennsylvania they teach kids how bad and immoral it is to hunt a squirrel. I guess they want the new generation to be pansy and unable to defend themselves. How nice it would be when a crook show up at a house for burglary and the man of the house hides under the bed rather than protect his family -:)
Javed
For $5 cheap fishing course that’s all I could offer. Wading clothes, wading shoes, the size of hooks, the weight of the line, flex of the rod etc will cost you guys more.
3Ws
How did you become Blair Witch from Sweetie? Come on you can share with me.
Khansahab
At your no.1 to no.3 New Year’s resolutions I would say, work out at a gym, do weight training and tell me at the end of 2009 if you accomplished them.
Awas
Eik mohabbat ko bholane keliye dosre kerne pudti hai.
OK, time for more jokes to ease off the tension of 2009
Mom says to her daughter: You stupid, didn’t I tell you if a guy touches your boobs, say don’t and if he goes below your belt, you must say STOP. So, how come you allowed him to efff you?
The girl replied: But Mom, he touched both at the same time and I said, don’t stop!
Khanshab,your new year resolutions seem to be like many others.Getting a girlfriend theme I don’t think applies in our culture though. Never the less all the best and please see the videos uploaded.Yasir Arafat also features in the 2nd one as he and Mushy clear up Surrey.Muhsy’s wickets are well and truly brilliant in that game.
More on cricket…. How do the commentators describe…..
1. A stalker or a nude woman on the ground? (unfortunately we don’t see them anymore, because of these security guys)
No cover, no extra cover, no slip, 2 silly points, 2 fine legs and a deep gully. Little grass on the pitch.
2. On Mendis bowling:
He is a good user of his fingers, he uses only two fingers but he gets the best of his balls twist and turn only thru those 2 fingers. I wish I had magic fingers like his. (Ranjit Fernando to Waqar – surprisingly waqar did not comment back)
3. Another one of Ranjit Fernando:
Jayasuriya is an extremely good hooker
And, Ranjit continues……
Whenever he sees the ball is rising, he goes under it and plays it with ease! Especially through the legs he takes it very nicely.
Theo
Eik Mohabbat ko bholane ke liyeh dosree kerni padti hai……… hummm it means, those who constantly fail in Mohabbat are the real achievers! right?
Unna day maojaan-e-moajaan.
Aur flex of the rod ki kyaa baat ker reho tum? Wo tou ab kisi kaam kay qabil na reha toot jo gaya! Are you going to fix it with super glue and use it?
Btw, I have separate rods, telescopic is fiberglass and a two piece crankin and a very strong graphite for trolling. Trolling ka mazaa tou Dubai may aata thaa in deep sea fishing but here its not possible. Unless you wanna go with me to Florida for Blue Marlin fishing or, Fiji would be a better place.
abdul, which culture are you talking about UK wala or Pakistani? At both places kids your age have fun with Barbie, Cindy and Stacey and watch movies like Pocahontas. khansahab plays with life size Cindy’s and Barbies the inflatable type!
Javed, never did Blue Marlin fishing but you know one day. Hey, I watched that Outdoor Channel show on King Salmon fishing up in Canada. That’s sounds fun also.
A few of the many things I want to do before I die:
1-Catch a King salmon
2-Catch a Blue Marlin
3-Kill and stuff a 13 point Buck
4-Kill and stuff a Cougar or Mountain Lion
5-Kill and eat a wild African Buffalo
6-Kill and stuff an African male Lion
If I’m given option by God who I want to be in my next life, I would either want to be Clint Eastwood or Hugh Hefner.
theo
I am agree with your 6 points and I can add a few more to that wish list of mine BUT the last paragraph of your comment about Clit Eastwood and Hugh Hefner both are alive and in 80′s and are living only on YAADAIN ….. I would prefer to die rather young and not look so old, fragile, wrinkled and haggard and YAADAIN becomes AZAAB for them.
Yaad-e-Maazi Azaab hai ya Rabb
Cheen lay mujh say Hafzaa Mera
I don’t want to be saying this. I want to die like my friend Nasir Durrani’s father who was healthy, strong and he was sitting in a party talking to friends and laughing out loudly and then the next moment he died and the smile on his face was there and when he was taken for burial and they showed his face to people for one last time the smile was still there on his face. I want to die just like that.
theo “How did you become Blair Witch from Sweetie? Come on you can share with me.”
Sweetie is like Satyam Shivam Sundaram, you haven’t seen the other side of her face, right? She is a Sweetie but she can be a real Kurwee for a few.
LOL Javed, I wanted to born again as Clint Eastwood or Hugh Hefner and I certainly wouldn’t like to have some 50 years scratched off my life. “I am agree” with you on dying with grace rather than miserable and being dependent on your spouse or kids. I guess that’s what every prideful or egoistic man thinks, a very common thinking among Pathans. I would rather have a Grizzle Bear eat me alive while hunting rather than having someone looking after me. I have too much pride to take that and I’m not afraid of death.
And you wrote Sweetie has a bitter side? Nahh, she seems a sweet person but then again I can’t judge her, right?
theo: Sweetie is a sweet person but then again I can’t judge her, right?
Well, when she will read this, she will get a wicked smile on her face and then she will laugh out loudly at the deer hunter (Robert D’ Niro) with a Muaahahahahahahahaha!
Yes, you don’t know her hidden talents.
theo
You don’t have to scratch off 50 years from your life, in most cases I have seen 65 plus is an age where man gets “SuathyaOed.” Meaning they go bonkers after that age. So eighty minus sixty five is 15 years and scratching 15 years is OK.
After 65 you can’t hold a gun or a camera in your hands without shaking it. So, hunting, photography and even fishing is out of question and depending on etc., etc.. or vaghaira, vaghaira is not something a real man would be looking to live for.
It’s about lunch time and I’m pulling Chicken Tikka, Chapli Kabab, and Parathas out of my lunch box. Nahh I’m day dreaming, it’s a freaking Quizno’s roast beef sub I’m gonna eat -:(
I thought it would be another fish sandwich for you but you have surprized me by eating a Quzno’s roast beef, I hate Quizons they suck.
Ps
I already had Paratha, omelet and last nights Karai Gosht for breakfast and its time for me to take a shower and get ready and go out, its 12:30 p.m. and being a Muslim I must go for Jummah prayers, I go Jummay ko Jummah! at least I am honest in admitting.
Javed, on the other hand I like to keep my weight around 180 lbs, with at least 4 pack (6 pack in summer). Subs without cheese are kindda blessing in disguise.
Warsha de jumme monz oka, Javed sher bachay de -:)
I like Khanshab would like to share my new year resolutions.
- Work my socks of and pull of excellent grades for my GCSE.
- Get 50 wickets and win the league for my club side in the 2009 season.
- Pray regularly and do anything that can please Allah.
- Finally I’m going to trials for a county this summer in cricket and hope to be able to play u19 cricket for one of them.
Inshallah I’ll be able to achieve my goals and have a successful year.

Check out the winner and the other girl, in red.
WOW
Sara hussan Pakastaan mai hai!!!
(Aur Pakastaan da dill Lahore hai ba-kaouz, Lahore Lahore hai……..)
Abdul
Our religion allows for four wives and you’re telling me I can’t keep a girlfriend?
Abdul, people who don’t have girlfriends are not “cool”.
So be “cool”.
Agreed Khansahab, people who don’t have girl friends are called here in U.S. as “Gay”.
So don’t be “Gay”.
Hey, guys! Lets just say, Abdul is a good ma’an da putter
Being “gay” in the old fashioned way i.e “happy”, is not such a bad thing.
Reading jokes makes me feel gay
Khansahab, I was talking about how people perceive guys with no girl friends here in U.S. I know in U.K. gay is the new happy. Haven’t you heard of the popular phrase, “he is not gay, he is Birtish” -:)
So it means, Abdul is a ‘gay’ (happy) without having a girl-friend
Abdul
People with no girlfriends are called “gay”.
So are you gay?? It’s OK if you are, I mean it’s natural (or I would hope it is).
Don’t worry, on LS we respect human rights…
Khansahab
What kind of person are you?
I cant believe you asked abdul that question, that is shockingly rude and disgraceful…You cant ask this question to a teenager!
I won’t make any more comments on your blog today…
Yeah right, I agree one is sure a happy man (gay) without having a girl-friend
One of Bob Marley’s greatest song was …
“No Woman, No Cry”
Theossa
I’m sorry for hurting your sentiments.
I just asked out of innocence, I mean Abdul’s dislike for girls has really made me curious.
In Pakistan some people are “loundey-baaz” and keep “loundeys” and they stay away from girls.
I know Abdul is young, but I think we should do our bit to guide him on the “Straight” path, not the “bent” path.
I’m sorry for provoking you.
LOL @ Khan Sahab’s innocence.
Khansahab, if you think Abdul is gay (you would know coz he corresponds with you through emails) then you should guide him to be straight. If he is gay don’t hate him, remember we as mankind are all Homos, Homo sapiens I mean.
Khansahab,
One thing I don’t understand is that both alchohol and pre-marital sex is not allowed in Islam. When we talk about girlfriends everybody starts smiling (not that they shouldn’t) but with alchohol everyone is like that smelly thing to keep away from. Why the discrepancy
Omar, if you mention POT with liquor I’ll smile all day. I like POT after liquor because it makes angels confuse what to write in my book of deeds.
Omer
That girlfriend thing was just a joke. I’ve resisted the temptation all my life, surely I can resist it for a few years until I get married!
I don’t know the answer to your question, but I can speculate. I think getting intimate with the opposite sex is easier in our culture, because no matter how conservative one might be, everyone at some point meets the opposite sex. Whereas, alcohol is more difficult to obtain, and it’s something that doesn’t look, smell or taste particularly appealing (unlike women
. It’s just a matter of addiction.
Whereas, intimacy between the sexes is natural and “godsent”.
I also don’t think that having a girlfriend necessarily means “sex” has to be involved. Certainly even if I had one, it would only be something I would contemplate as a last resort. That said, I don’t deny that most Muslim gentlemen I know who have courted, have done so because they wanted to experience physical intimacy.
I also think it is more about what kind of background one comes from. I would certainly succumb more easily to the “adaa-ein” of a beautiful woman, rather than the temptation to consume alcohol, something no one in my family consumes and most of my friends don’t consume. If I was from a family where people drank, I would perhaps succumb to the temptation more easily.
Whoaa Sehr Mahmood is my next Monica Belluci
Gotta go guys, have a nice weekend. It was all SATIRE so no hard feelings -:)
Isn’t she lovely Omer? She is from Karachi, although I am sure originally she is either Punjabi or Sindhi.
Go on boy, you are from Karachi too and you are a hotshot mashallah
Try your luck…..
Who knows she might be after a Green Card….
That’s why I say, best looking girls in the world are in Pakistan……in terms of height, complexion, features- everything.
Khansahab,
So if you had a gf would you just hold her hands in playland
And wow sex is something you would comtemptlate and we are questioning Abdul here
Omer
At least I would HAVE a girlfriend, sex comes after.
I know many Muslims here who are BF/GF, but there is no sex…..I mean they want to wait until marriage, or the girls don’t want it
http://www.cctv.com/program/cultureexpress/20060802/images/100864_fashion2.jpg
Omer, check her out….
Yeh toh “apni” bhi nahi lagti!!….
Born in Pakistan on 10 August 1981, Sehr spent her first 20 years in Karachi, Pakistan before moving to Boston, MA to study. Her desire to represent Pakistan on an international level stemmed from her desire to help evolve Pakistan as a whole. “The pageant was a first for me, and all in all was an amazing experience. This pageant is a great platform which gives Pakistani women the opportunity to emerge as a voice for their community and address issues that need to be dealt with.”
Sehr Mahmood went on to compete in the Miss Earth 2006 pageant held in Manila, Philippines as well as Queen of the World in 2006. She took home the Best in Media and Queen of Elegance titles respectively.
Sehr Mahmood had just completed her honors degree in Economics at the time of her crowning and is now looking to gain her MBA in finance.
*Ahem Ahem*
Haan bhai Omer sahab
Sehr is from Karachi
Now lives in USA
And has a Finance background….
Baat pukki kar wa doon?
Mubarak ho! Mubarak ho!
Aap ko bhi mubarak ho!!
(Stop blushing young man!!!)
Haha yeah Khansahab…
Very competitive…
We are treading along dangerous lines here. There is going to be a serious backlash here by Sana, Sweetie, or DRC. It is just the nature of women
Yeah
I’m waiting for Sana and GF to say “ohh look at the make up on her!”
“oh she has done that surgery”
“Oh she is using that eyeliner, oh she is using that blush-on”
Sehr Mahmood I can’t help but think that she was in one of my schools, much senior though.
Nah Khansahab baat mat karwana yeh kuri dangerous hai I mean you just get the feeling sometimes…
LOL exactly Khansahab where are Monica’s haters
Omer
Now don’t come up with that “I know this girl from “somewhere” story!”
Kyun dangerous hai…..you mean in the sense of “If looks could kill, she would cause a genocide?”
In India they will say “Larki masth hai” and “Ek dum laal mirchi hai”
Actually when I saw her second time in this pic above where I said “Yeh apni nahi lagti”, I’m sure she’s a Punjaban….
Which makes things more interesting…
Haan phir toh thori bohot dangerous zaroor hogi
Khansahab,
Well the name does sound very familiar.
Lol I was kidding yea I mean yeh kuri– as a very far right Maulana might say–” insaan ko uske hosh o hawaas se baahar le aayege, ye kuri jahanum ka darwaza hai”
Lol yea that is what I thought as well, I could not articulate it…She looks kind of Punjabi, and that is kind of dangerous
Yea Yea now I know exactlt what I meant– She looks kind of a “fighter” type rather than the “sober” type.
Theossa,
I avoid pot because then I actually start seeing confused angels.
Leme check her out if she is dangerous then I’ll report to you guys…much later
daal mein kuch kala hain?… Hmmmm….
Hahaha poori daal hi kaali hai….
She’s FIT..that lady
Khansahab 2006 Ka pageant dikha ker aap larkoon ko excite ker rahe ho, ab baat chalaney ka waqat guzar chuka! Iss ko ley jaaney waley ley ja chukey hoon gay.
Javed!!!! Loll.. No MUAHAHAHA @ ure comment 67! I started laughin loud but i remembered im sitting in my sister’s closet & about to get a kick on my rear end cuz shes tryin to put my neice to bed.
Mein itni bhi buree nahi hon =( Badnaam kia hua hai mujhe BM! Ure just jealous of me. so **smack**
B F, *blush* & u’ll always be BF =)
BF, I wont say nething about sehr mahmood wearing makeup or getting a surgery, but i can’t help but think of this, how come u went from Monica to sehr? (Monica= beauty, Sehr = errrr no comments !! lol
Guys u really go of the hook sometimes. Don’t u ?
Khanshab,we have many great discussions between me and u on this blog mainly about Paksitan cricket and Bollywood films but sometimes u completely change your character and make ridiclous comments. And it seems I’m speaking to a 10 year old child rather than a 21 year old lawyer.
Now I’m a heterosexual person. U know that shorly and I’m assuming u were being slightly sacrastic when asking me about my authority. Anway I thought u would be be easily convinced about this following my previous comments on the hot gals page. I did stamp my authority there about showing affection to glamarous women in particular Rani Mujurjee,Priety Zinta,Katrina kaif and the latest newcomer in Anuksha Sharma whose only a few years older than me!
Never the less in our Pakistani or Muslim culture we by pass the girlfirend stage and sex before marriage is strongly prohabited in the holy quran. However, a small relationship should be fine. Even though I know some people who have started to follow the English on this girlfirend theme majority of us avoid the temptation and therefore I was suprised at your intentions especially after all the so called advice you’ve given me.
Anyway anyone can tell it’s far to early to have a girlfriend at my age and I should give my stduies priority so therefore no need to interfer and make ridiculous statements of whom one can be ashamed.
Abdul
I am apologise to you and I am ask for your pardon. I won’t interfere with your authority anymore.
But Abdul you have stopped writing on Hot Gals page and you never wrote dirty, sexual comments so I thought maybe you are “different” to other men?
Omer
I’m not kidding, this Sehr in that pic above looks like a gori in my law school, she is on my Facebook. Her hair is even like this gori’s.
GF
I’m still with Monica…you know in Islam 4 marriages are allowed….
Wasim sahab
Yes, she is probably married now, leken kehtay hain naa keh mehnat karo toh bhagwaan bhi mil jaata hai……so I thought maybe Omer should keep trying, he might find her somewhere
Aww Abdul. For a teenager you have a very mature outlook on life. Girlfriends and the like can wait, but your time to study and make something of your life won’t keep coming back. So it’s all good. Work hard and I hope you succeed.
Oh and I only said that girl was ‘fit’ as a joke. I said it because you guys assumed we would disagree with her ‘prettiness’.
Abdul, apnay aap ko bohot smart samaj tey ho tum, kissi din kaheen mill gaye mujhe toh saari smartness nikaal doonga tumhaari…
(guys i’m just joking with abdul, but dont tell him…cheers!)
Kaleem
Yes he is annoying, but please cut it out now..
Guys in what way have I been annoying ? I now strongly regret revealing my age due to the amount of abuse and insults I’ve recived.
Kaleem, u are quite pathetic aren’t u. Don’t u think I can see your comments ?
Abdul
A lot of people write abuses for you, I don’t know why?
I’ve had to censor and remove many comments because they are abusive to you, and I don’t want you to take it to the heart.
But maybe this is a lesson in self discovery for you, maybe see the faults with yourself before you blame others?
In what way do I hold the faults ?
Abdul
As DRC says, “you have a very mature outlook on life”. If she says something like that for me I’ll be blushing.
Just forget what Kaleem says…ignorant so and so!
Abdul
Kaleem can tell you himself what your faults are, but stop sending me e-mails and I will stop thinking you’re annoying!
Abdul
And don’t regret revealing about your age. Just be yourself.
Leme guess…16? Now be honest as honesty is your middle name.
Khansahab
seriously dude what is wrong with you? You are inviting me to tell Abdul what is wrong with him, and when i write anything for his attention you censor my comment?
he is not your brother or friend, so let him get his due…
kaleem,tum koi paindoo hea ki khiye ?
Abdul
Watch out because i will start giving you maa behen ki, and then you will go in a little corner and cry your young eyes out
Abdul
That paindoo comment must have hurt kaleem. He’s gone quiet!!!
You didn’t answer my earlier question?
Abdul
See I told you it has hurt him. Don’t worry, we wont allow any galees.
Woah what just happened?!
Awas I think I need to give you some compliments too, to make you blush
I am full of cold
Abdul, ure comment 119, ‘Now i am a heterosexual’… Ummm what did u think u were before? Queer? Confused?? LOL
Sowwie, i meant comment 113
Kaleem
I didn’t expect this behaviour from you, at the same time I don’t think Abdul should react in such a Paindoo way, because people will call him a “juvenile delinquent”.
My friend Abdul you are NOT gay. Can’t you guys see how he stamped his authority on Rani, Karina, and the rest. He is busy studying but soon he will stamp his authority on Sehr too.
CM
‘Now i am a heterosexual’…what it must have meant is since he discovered puberty sometime after he got weaned off
kiowoon Abdul?
Abdul
I hope you don’t mind…its all in good spirit. But I really don’t like this kaleem guy.
As DRC says, you got your priorities right…good man!
Plz allow this Mr Khansahab….
Abdul ki dilrooba: Yuck!!

kaleem
May be it wasn’t a good camera
Have u thought of that?
Abdul ghir gaya gundoon mein, chor do ab iss ko kiya bachey ki jaan lo gay.
Abdul they are just messing with you, sab sey chota honay ka nuqsaan
yehi hota hay. Don’t take it on your heart.
Awas, i wonder how many yrs that took for him lol
Ah, Return of The (Jedi) Sweetie
“how many yrs” You mean puberty or weaning off
LOL.. Both!
. Javed is just badnaam karring me cuz he’s jealous! hehehe
I dunno about Jedi, cuz i don’t like Sci Fi. But this is my real side
Yeh Itna Sunnata Kiyun Hai Bhai ?
Munir its a LAZY SUNDAY kinda sunnata, the weather is so dull and boring at our end and last night I heard that even in the UK they are expecting something like -6C so if it is true then, they must be underground by now. Whereas, we already live in a deep freezer and are used to -12-14C but, for me if there is no sunshine then I feel like going back to sleep, Chunachay yahi howa aaj subha when I woke up at 8:30 a.m. (sunrise is at 7:30) it was kinda dark and I went back to sleep again till 1:00 p.m.
The good thing after Dec 21st is every single day will be longer than the previous day so there is hope but, the worst part of the winter has not started yet. As long as you stay outdoors you feel good, but when you hibernate then its a problem.
One of my neighbours called me an hour ago on phone, actually he woke me up, ‘coz he returned from a long trip to India and he was there during the Mumbai attacks and he was narrating some fresh stories about the current situation in India. I told him to save it, as I want to meet him sometime later to discuss it in person.
Javed Khan …
LOL @ “I told him to save it, as I want to meet him sometime later to discuss it in person”.
Javed you are really lucky to be sleeping till 1.00 pm with such nice and cold weather. I know in winters, one does not want to detach with blanket.
UAE have one of the best weathers in winter months, as we have temperatures ranging from 10C to 25 C max, which is best for outdoors, specially dessert safaris, camping, picnics, etc. but we don’t get to see really cold weather, rains, snows, etc.
I would like to visit Canada in winters and experience such cold temperatures, before I die.
Munir:“I would like to visit Canada in winters and experience such cold temperatures, before I die.”
Munir, like they say Hajj Jawani may kerna chahiyeh bakaoz its really tough. Likewise, you must visit Canada especially when you are young. Not that you will experience ONLY cold weather but, people here are hot, especially chicks. So, now I am leaving you all confused to decide what you wanna do in your life, now or hereafter!
Yes it has been sooo cold in the uk!……. staying in the midlands it woz freezing… man i missed my lil blanket!.. not that i was not being fussed over anyway u always miss home no matter what..:p..
i want to go Venice
how are we all keeping??………im still a newbie right ? so be nice :p
Andheeke
You wanna go to Venice for what? Just to be nice or you wanna be in a Gandola? You can’t be alone in a Gandola you have to ask Al Ka Pacino to take you there and sing that song, like Zeeni Baby singing it to Amita ka Buchpan.
Ps. Al ka Pacino is Awas.
i want to go because i always wanted to go there. i dnt sing songs so unless someone doubt mind singing to me its all good and carry my shopping its all even better
.
thought you was going to say and sing that song “khaike paaaaan buna ras wala ” classic AB
Andheeke ““khaike paaaaan buna ras wala ” ”
NO, I hate that song.
well i aint gona pretend and say i hate it too
Javed Khan @ Comment No. 146 …
LOL …
Hot chicks in cold weather sure sound tempting, but I guess I better visit Canada when I am really old, that way I will be a nice (Force Majeure) and this will be good for my ‘hereafter’
Cold weather reminds me of a nice storey …
In one of the social gatherings, an old poet with snow-white hairs, was trying to get friendlier with a group of young beauties and was trying to catch their attention by reading a few of his new poems to the girls.
A journalist, who was feeling a bit jealous of the poet, approached him and said, Sir, would it not be more appropriate if you stayed among your own age-group, as these beautiful girls are way too ‘hot’ for you?
The poet, pointing to his white hairs, replied to the journalist, when one has ‘snow’ on the rooftop; he need more ‘flames’ in his room.
Andheeke
The song that I was referring to was from the movie The Great Gambler and the lyrics are Dou Lafzaon ki hai dil ki kahani………kya hai mohabat kya hai jawani
http://utube.smashits.com/watch/Do-Lafzon-Ki-Hai-Dil-Ki-Kahani/vHkut5rUzk8/Do-Lafzon-ki-Asha-bhosnle-Do-lafzo-ki-amor-mio-hindi-song.html
Late last year, I had the pleasure of seeing the singer Raghav live, one late afternoon, on a very wet and cold day in Birmingham.
I caught a cold as a consequence of standing in the pouring rain, with no coat on. It was an outdoor event, but it was worth it
. All the other girls in the crowd were waiting for Jay Sean and the other ‘pretty’ boys. I was sooo impressed with Raghav’s voice.
I think the likes of Jay Sean, H Dhami are so over-rated in comparison to Raghav. He has such a soulful voice and it kind of touches you.
I quite like his new song. It has grown on me. It is called Humrahee.
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=n_bKlAUflOY
N.B. The song is so much better when one does not watch the video. However, the model in the video, is quite pretty. :p
See I am so considerate to you guys for pointing out she is pretty!
It is freezing in the UK too. It has been snowing but has not settled.
I am so glad I do not have to leave the house, unless I really have to.
I’ve noticed the UK is getting colder and colder. Whereas before, in years gone by, one could anticipate a warm-ish Summer, now we just get miserable weather all year round.
DRC
Yeah that girl in that song is well fit.
Looks a bit like Cheryl Cole.
I think she is a Sikhni.
I find it very unnerving when girls go ga-ga over Jay Sean or other hip hop/bhangra singers, they are quite ordinary looking guys. I am not jealous or anything, I just don’t understand the psyche how an average looking man becomes “good looking” somehow if he has fame and money?
She is a top Asian model in the UK.
She is all over Asian women and bridal magazines. Models for a lot of different people. She is pretty mashallah.
Yeh she is Sikhni.
I think why the likes of Jay Sean are idolised is because the media is deprived of ‘South-East Asian’ faces. So they make do with what is available.
I don’t find Jay Sean exceptionally good looking.
I am a fan of Raghav’s vocal talent though. He is really good.
I was deeply disappointed to see how Abdul was taken on by all but except me since I’m a good guy. Come on people where the conscious are? Abdul may not be gay and you guys should leave him alone. He does not pass dirty comments on exotic picture of girls because he thinks it’s a sin and not because he is a Homo. Khansahab you should post the Mushy’s bowling video highlight from 1979 test against Australia in which he took 13 wickets in one inning just to show good will towards Abdul. Thanks.
Theo Mushy’s bowling video highlight from 1979 test against Australia in which he took 13 wickets in one inning ????????????? I must be still in my bed and dreaming !!!! But, why would I dream of Mushy Bushy? There are other good things in the world to dream about!
Theo
Yeah, when it comes to LS, these guys are vultures here but I am grateful Abdul gave me some good lessons in the art of spin bowling.
If Abdul was a sinner like you guys, I would have sent him that email too…check your inbox
Javed, didn’t he take 13 wickets in one innings against Australia? Oh, it must be against Germany then, my bad.
He took 13 wickets against Germany in one inning, and then Hitler got the German team shot dead….which is why Germany doesn’t have a cricket team
Yeah, Mushy and Abdul Jindabaad…two master blasters!
I would have loved to be here to contribute more on the master blaster topic but, I have to go…….. something important.
I want Theo to reply to Andheeke on that 2 lafzaon ki hai dil ki kahani ….. jhooti mohabat, adhhair jawani
Awas:
Need 24 hours to examine your email before I make my selection. By default I have rights on the month of June but I do have 24 hours to return the item and pick another one.
As per request Javed’s request with attention on/to Andheeke
2 lafzaon ki hai dil ki kahani
jhooti mohabat, adhhair jawani
This piece of poetry comes from a classic award winning sad love story which I’ll present you with great pleasure:
There was a blind guy who fell in love with this beautiful young girl. He could feel that she had it all, height, curves, affection. He felt like the happiest man alive on earth. So after dating for a few months they decided to get married and then the blind lover found out that the beautiful girl was in fact a She-Male so hence this piece of poetry slipped from his lips.
A love story by William Shakespeare
Theo
24 hours!!! By then it might be too late as Omer might take them all…Munir doesn’t like left overs either
Meanwhile I am taking up the challenge of learning Allah’s 99 beautiful names currently. Anyone else done or attempted the challenge before ?
Awas,I don’t think Muhstaq Ahmed was around in 1979 and he made his debut in 1990/1991. u may have muddled up with Abdul qadir !
Abdul
For someone who likes to preach about Deen I think it is shocking you are learning Allah’s names at 16.
When are you 17 by the way?
I learned them off by heart when I was 8. I started 5 times prayer when I was 11, and completed the Quran when I was younger.
At Khansahab’s statement, “I learned them off by heart when I was 8. I started 5 times prayer when I was 11, and completed the Quran when I was younger”.
And after that you moved to U.K. -:)
Hum Bhee June Kay Umeedwar Hain, Bhaai Sahab, and that to by default
Awas …
Seems like you have sent it to all at LS
Munir, give up on June, because I fear, dono bhaion mien khain churrian na chul jain -:)
Theossa
Abdul is also in the UK, it might be hard to come to terms with, but it’s true.
Abdul
Yeah, I do get muddled up easily…but this time it was Theo who said 1979 not me I just said:
Mushy and Abdul Jindabaad…two master blasters!
khansahab
Why are u so keen to know when will Abdul be 17? Are going to ask DRC to bake a cake for him? When Abdul does tell you that then don’t forget 17 candles will be on you then.
Abdul, go on tell him, don’t be shy, lets have a treat on them…
Nahh, baking a cake for Abdul is no fun. For his 17th birthday I’ll take him to a strip joint and have sexy looking ladies give him lap dances. If Abdul is straight he’ll definitely say yes to my offer and finally put an end to this silly discussion about his sexual orientation.
Lets all stop picking on Abdul and move onto erm…………………
………………
…………
Khansahab :p
Astughferullah!
Why are some people bent upon making a good Mummy’s boy a sinner!!!
DRC, I am with you on this one.
DRC, that’s exactly what I proposed to put an end to this silly discussion. Read all my posts I’m the one who has supported Abdul all along. It’s just my nice guy nature that I can’t help but stand for someone who is being unfairly targeted. You know how I roll.
DRC
On moving on…
Do u know how to make Kashmiri chai?
I remember when my Mum used to give us in winter days like these…Woderful tonic!
Abdul
You are a very popular guy!
Everyone loves you.
Theo, in your absence I defended Abdul and Awas backed me too. Teenagers are easily influenced and we should guide him in a POSITIVE manner. Lol, I like ‘how you roll’.
Awas, that is the pink tea isn’t it? I think we call it sabaz chai. It is lovely with lots of sugar.
Sadly, my daadi jaan and my mother are experts at making it and not me. I make desi chai though
How cold is it Awas?!
drc – helooooooo have u not figured out who i am ? seems i bein blanked
poo…
Munir
That was just so people can remember important dates, like birthdays…what were you looking at?
Salaam Andheeke..how are you on this lovely freezing cold evening?
Awas…chi! I hope you guys are not looking at naughty calendars!
Abdul, I learnt Allah`s names when i was a kid & i still remember them all.
This might help
DRC, it’s not really cold up there. Awas is just a spoiled brat who wants other to do things for him -:) But since you have a nice heart, go ahead make him Joshanda.
DRC
Yep, that’s the one…sabaz chai… I love it when it’s salty though!
-3c I can’t feel my nose and ears!
-3 C is not cold Theo?!It’s blaaaaaaaaaady freezing. Abdul just needs to put some extra layers on.
I haven’t been well for the last few days and my mum made me mashed potato with baked beans. It was so nice. Lovely in this weather.
Awas..I don’t like it salty. I love ‘desi’ chai; saunf, liachi, cinnamon..loose tea, milk and sugar. My dad makes me make it, it takes a while, but it is so nice.
Abdul
I bet Sweeties loves you now. Tell her your birthday…you’ll get a nice present…you have trumped khansahab here…bravo!!!
See, being a good boy pays off.
i do not like sabaz chai i had that in pakistana and tasted too flowery :s mayb i am weird!.. i prefer normal PG Tips tea tho
.. such a snob..lol
drc – fine hows u ? long time no speak..enjoying the snow ??……its kinda melted now…
How about -26 C in Pittsburgh? I need that masala chai and not just a cup but the whole “chenuk”.
PG Tips tea…?
Is that the one that monkeys make on the telly?
Awas …
Yeah right … the ‘dates’, thats what I was ‘looking’ at, and you ?
It’s called Sabaz or Kashmiri Chai, but funny it is ‘Ghulabi’ in it’s colour and at times it is also called ‘Ghulabi Chai’.
This is totally different to the Sabaz Chai of Pathaans, where they take tea with either a sugar/ jaggery cube in their mouth and not mixed in tea, or some even take their green tea with dry fruits.
yep thats the ones awas.. arent they soo cool.. even better behaved than humans at times
..
Whenever my daadijaan knows one of us is ill, she will make us sabaz chai. It was like duwaey when we were younger. Now that we are older, we don’t tell her we are ill
Negative associations with our childhood.
I am ok thanks. Working on my essay and posting here. Snow has melted here. How are things with you?
Awas, I am sure you all were ‘innocent’….once upon a time hehe!
DRC
What naughty calendars?
And what do u mean once upon a time…I’m even better now.
Theo, if you are in -26 conditions, I would move. I am suprised aap ki kulfi nahi jaam gaye.
I ca send you plenty of cheynuks but they will freeze on the way lol.
bless isnt ur daadi sweet .. my daadi never done stuff like that…
tho my dad used to at times… to be a kid again…
im fine drc same old.. ticking away..i cant believe its january!.. times flies…
Awas,
Nothing.
Hmmm can I guess how old you are?
DRC
Just a bit older than Abdul so it won’t be difficult…
And you…how old?
Go on take a guess!
Andheeke,
It might have been nice but at the time daadi used to force us to drink it and we could never get out of it. Now my cousins and me just don’t tell her we are ill. hehe!Time is going very fast. I have an exam in 3 weeks
Awas, in that case even I am older than you
I am 21 and a half years old hehe. (My birthday is in August, just to let you know in advance).
I reckon, you are in your late 30-49 ‘s.
DRC, I just want to clear that I’m not like my crooked acquaintances i.e. Awas, Munir, Khansahab, Javed. I’m very seedha saadha. Also, at your Comment# 183, what Abdul needs is to follow a POSITIVE example like me.
Awas, DRC has seen your real picture remember? She can guess how old you are.
Sweetie, what???? 3Ws, then “bohut bada cookie” and “metthi” again?
DRC
Just trying to help you here- don’t go around asking ages, you won’t accomplish anything
I did that a lot, but gave up
DRC
So, you are older than 16 and a 3/4…humm. Leo then…me too?
DRC
No kidding, had baked potato with cheese and beans myself today!
And mustard
If Abdul is going to find a positive example on LS, he is frankly wasting his time (joking).
Hmm, I only have your word for it when you say ‘seedha sadha;. Most people who say that, are not
Khansahab,
May be they will be nicer to me. However, you also know I believed something which turned out to be untrue. Ki faraak pehnda va
OOppps means 40′s not 49
Yeh Awas…that makes me sherni…
P.s. I ain’t going to fall for that.
Aww Khansahab, it is the best comfort food for this weather. I did not have cheese though, as when I am ill, dairy products aggreviate my asthma.
P.s. bean lover!
Let me reveal the ages here, start with me, I’m 44, Khansahab is 100, Awas is 24, Javed is 27, Abdul is 13, Munir is 30, DRC is 21.5, Sweetie is 22, Andheeke is 20, Omar is 23.
Theossa
You got it right…ALMOST
Ba-kaouz, Awas and JAK are older than 24 and 27, and Abdul is 10.
Yeah and did I ever tell you guys that I was a jet setting model?!
Oh Khansahab, I thought Abdul was 13 because you just forwarded me an email which belongs to Abdul and you had the subject, “that’s what I get from a 13 year old!” You made me confused now -:(
Theossa …
LOL @ the ages.
Oh and whilst I remember, BBC 4 are showing some interesting programmes tonight.
8.30pm- An Islamic History of Europe
9pm- Islam and Science.
So Abdul reached the ‘double figures’, I thought he is 9
DRC
I’m gonna record that programme
Munir, what can I say, why you guys are making me so confused? Awas says he is 16, Khansahab says he is 10, and you insist on 9, DRC treats him like 6, which one is the real age I wonder? I read his comments on politics and cricket pages and he seems very mature to me. I believe he is a 17 year old with the brains of a 30!
See you guys are still picking on Abdul.
Theossa- 30-35
Awas- 37-46
And a few ofthe others I know their real ages anyway.
Theo
I agree…Abdul is very mature for his age. How can anyone fox anyone with googlies otherwise?
DRC
And JAK…how old?
Awas …
My favourite ‘months’ are January, August, and November
I hope the offer was on “first come first serve” basis
Theossa … take you pick from the left overs
For me…lower, lower not higher, higher.
U don’t know how to play your cards right.
same age range as you!Maybe a tad more inclined towards the 40′s
Ok Brucie…mid thirties!
Awas, I remember Abdul mentioned once that he is going to upload his wicket taking bowling videos on youtube, if you have the links please provide me. I will be able to see him in action and might also guess his age right.
DRC, very close! But I’m 44 -:)
JAK …. I guess 40 with the ‘mind’ of a teenager
Munir
You greedy so and so…remember, I said ONE.
It’s not like having four wives here…OK! And January is taken already…listen, don’t try your luck with me.
Munir, I’m not able to look at the calendar yet which is supposedly full of beautiful ridges and valleys but I like spring and summer so there will be duel between us -:)
Theo…don’t believe you!
HEYYYYYYYYYYY! Nooooo BF is BF ok! LOL
No more love for me!!
Phew
Thank God no one is trying their luck with April. That month is MINE.
Oh one only, Ok then …. “August” for me.
Pakistan Zindabaad
Theo
If you haven’t seen his leg-break then you ain’t seen noffin yet!
November is for Abdul, so no one touches it. *if Abdul did not/ could not take, then I will oblige*
GF
Don’t let these jealous people come in the way of out BF-GF thingy
How could that cold hearted Theossa even think GF would leave me and go after Abdul?
You guys better be good gun slingers, remember I have a 0.45 caliber Colt and it creates a soft ball size exit wound! Anyone daring to take my JUNE?????
Sweetie
But…but, he’s so sweet…and why would you find him such a good video then???
I love to see a good old fashioned duel…come on cowboy…I’ll be right behind you…
DRC, remember I’m very “seedha saadha” so why would I lie to you. People make themselves younger so I might be like 49 -:)
Theoss…
This time, June is ‘thunda’ month, so you better take a peek and select any other.
Yeah right, “Seedha Saadha” like a Jalaibee.
Seedha saadha like Shakti Kapoor
Khansahab, Sweetie became “Sweetie” again when I protested her being 3Ws so ready or not here I come.
Awas, I always felt you were the wisest of bunch. That guy Munir is dead man walking.
stop confusing me.
I am outta here guys …
DRC, I’m not making you confuse, these other guys are. My LS picture is like 16 years old when I used to sing:
Bahar ka nishaan hon
Abhi to mien jawan hon
Look what you did to Munir sahab, Theossa! He has left….
You should try that trick more often you know, maybe on some juveniles?
I didn’t know Munir was such a wussy -:) Come on Munir, I was just kidding I’m not gonna shoot ya.
Munir sahab
….And you call yourself a Pathan???……..
You lot are mean for confusing. Apart from Khansahab
Awas and Khansahab watch those programmes if you can.
I’m offskis for the time being.
Laters geeks
Sweetie, look what DRC said before she left, “You lot are mean for confusing, apart from the cutie pie Khansahab, DRC blushes”. That looks very fishy to me, is she trying to snatch your BF? Most likely she is, so why not show her your wicked side which Javed mentioned once.
Guys I’m going after Munir, I promise I’ll get him back on LS sometime.
Have a nice day.
Theossa
You’re just jealous cos people call me “seedha saadha” and you, a wicked wizard of the west….
Guys why are u having a discussion over my age which I have revealed so frequently in the past. I apprepciate the work u guys have done especially the likes of Awas and Theossa on supporting me on this blog.Thanks guys !
I think me and Theossa share someting in common which is being classified as “mathematics geeks”. Yes my strongest subject is Maths and am aiming highly in that subject. My favourite element of Mathematics is statistics. How about u Theossa. I’m guessing u require good algebra in engineering as well as Physics.
However, DRC and co thanks for the advice but please don’t look to show sympathy for me on this blog and treat me like a normal individual.
Theossa,did u realise your displayed image appears first on google images ?
Mumhammed Munir,what’s your brother up to these days ?
Hey BF, dont call Theo Wicked wizard of the west! LOL ( ure the only BF hehe)
Awas, i posted the vdo so it would help abdul remember the 99 names, nuthin more! lol
June kay ya June say? Munir
Iss hisaab say tou sirf 2 maheenay baki hain aapkay!
By default ……. the date is….?
Btw, on June there is a remix song that I’ve recently heard and its on youtube
June ka maosam, mast maheena
Chaand si gori ek haseena
Aankh may Kaajal Moonh pay Paseena
NO DRC, that sabz chai is green tea, the chai Awas is asking is the Kashmiri Doodh Putti the one with saffron, almonds and pistachio and it is pink because you mix hot and cold (chilled) and add air to the chai and thats how it changes colour.
When you mix hot and cold you say, Blow Hot Blow Cold.
Munir
In your language you call it MIND? We call it something else!
DRC
It was good of you to remind us about that programme on BBC4. Islam’s many contributions to science are a wonderful legacy that we should be proud to be associated with but it’s a pity that we have been left far behind in the quest for further advancement. It was a good programme to watch. There a two more parts to it. The presenter, a professor at Cambridge but originally from Baghdad was quite at pains to compare the Baghdad of now and a centre of civilisation and knowledge then.
Did anyone else watch it?
The Mayor of London also presented a good one on Islam a while ago.
Abdul
Even b4 I read your comment above, I was going to suggest to you why don’t you follow on Theossa’s footsteps as you are the youngest and become a scientist and show the world how good you are. Did you know that Algebra was given to the world by Muslims? So, you are on good track with you interest in Maths. Theossa will be proud of you.
And don’t worry with a mind like yours we will treat you like an adult.
It seems the party continued till late, after I left
I guess the ‘chief-guest’ was late
Well my reason was ‘leaving’, was that I am in office now. (Hint… check the timings)
It can happen only in Indian Movies:-
BAGHBAAN: Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini are separated right after Holi remember Amitabh singing Holi khele Raghubeera? They are said to be separated for six months, i.e. from March to September. Within that six-month period, they celebrate Valentine’s Day, which falls on February 14, and karva chauth, which is usually observed in October. There is no way these two occasions could come between March and September.
LAGAAN: Lagaan was shot in the late 19th century. At the time, an over in cricket used to consist of 8 balls. But in this movie, an over has 6 balls. Maybe modern cricket learnt from the movie.
AMAR, AKBAR, ANTHONY: Three men donate blood at the same time to the same person.
AWWAL NUMBER: Dev Anand is an omnipotent genius – a former Cricketer, Captain, Army Chief, Commissioner, you name it. And Aamir Khan carries a huge transistor in his pocket while batting!
KHALNAYAK: The police tracks the villain from an MS Word Document screen! Something that office team will be interested in)
PYAR TO HONA HI THA: Kajol gets off the train to use the public toilet at the railway station and the train chugs off without her. Poor girl, little did she know that every train compartment has four toilets inside. ! ;
KHILADIYON KA KHILADI: Akshay Kumar boards a Jet Airways flight to America. Well, well, som! e promotion for our Indian Jet Airways. That Time Jet Airways wasn’t an International Flight. Or else we say that Movie was Pre -launched?
RAJA HINDUSTANI: Navneet Nishan has short hair before marriage. After tying the knot, she acquires waist-length hair overnight. What a hair-raising experience!
RAJA: Dilip Tahil empties a can of petrol over Madhuri Dixit. Minutes later, Sanjay Kapoor takes the same can and pours it over Dilip Tahil. That’s what I call an autofill!
GUDDU: Manisha Koirala and Shah Rukh Khan are seen hanging on a parachute during a song. But when the song ends, they land on a glider. What a
switch above sea level!
TERE MERE SAPNAE: Priya Gill is doing her BA. But at the bus stop, she is carrying an electrical technology thesis by B L Theraja. What an electrifying interest!
Have a nice time!
PS: You all can check with ABDUL for the verifications.
Abdul
I’m glad you finally find out who your friends are on this blog and who “pretenders” are. I and Awas are your real friends while DRC is a pretender. It’s because Awas and I treat you like a man and DRC treats you like a little girl. Just look at what she wrote on her comment# 190, “It’s blaady freezing. Abdul just needs to put some extra layers on”. Now I know you can handle cold very well because what she is forgetting that you play cricket in all kind of weather, it’s a man sport. Nothing against DRC, she is a nice person but since I’m a “Seedha Saada” guy I wanted to be fair. I even think Khansahab treat you like a man. Guys have little banters here and there, but it’s normal among men. So I’ll say even Khansahab is your friend.
Yeah Physics, Geometry, algebra, and Calculus are important subjects in engineering. My favorite in Mathematics is Laws of Probability, it’s geeky and fun.
I have heard of classic leg spinner weapons like leg break, googly, and flipper but do you think a leg spinner can ball a doosra? I wonder.
Munir
Good one man! Most Indian movies are just plain garbage. I remember an old Indiana movie in which the actress said while crying, “I’m so unfortunate, my mother died before I was born and my dad died in an accident”. LOL.
DRC
Nothing personal, it’s just LS business -:)
Abdul …
My brother is playing with some local teams. In UAE, this good season for Cricket, as weather is nice and we get very hot summers and can only play well in winters.
A few days, my bank team (my own branch team, including ME) played some “Friendly” T10 games with a few teams of our own corporate customers and a team from our head office. This was like a Cricket Festival, with a lot of games/ fun/ food/ Music/ etc. etc. for our corporate customers and their families/ kids.
Last year we had a similar event at Sharjah Cricket Stadium (yes the original), but this year CBFS Stadium was busy and so we opted for another venue.
Sharjah Cricket Club (CBFS) is my own corporate relationship, and I often meet Mr. Abdul Rahman Bukhatir, in line of duty, as well as Mr. Zahid Noorani who is not only a customer but a personal friend too.
No, I did not play for UAE
Hello everybody!
I would like to join the legslip ‘crew’ and look forward to happy blogging!!
Lots of love
VP.
Vanilla iPod
‘LS Crew’ welcomes and accepts you. Now get to the business by making all of us Vanilla Milk Shakes -:)
Vanilla Pod
Welcome to LS…tell us a bit about you. Even though Theoessa has smoked all kind of pods, so he may know…but lets us know anyway.
Theossa
Ask Abdul any questions; he will let you know all about spinning.
Since you mentioned it, I too had my doubts about DRC’s sympathies
Vanilla Pod …
Welcome to the LS … man/ woman/ boy/ girl …. whateva ‘buddy’
See what Awas meant by giving your short intro…. it will help
Vanilla “Ice Ice Baby” ….. Aahhh… those were the days
Thanks for the warm welcome Awas, Theossa and Mohd Munir (even tho Munir was reminiscing something icy, which infact reminded me of Dawlence ad, i think it was).
Munir sahab
“Sharjah Cricket Club (CBFS) is my own corporate relationship, and I often meet Mr. Abdul”
So you have met Abdul in Sharjah? I always considered Abdul to be something of a “desert rose”…..
Awas: LOL @ ur comment “Even though Theoessa has smoked all kind of pods,”
Theo is more budnaam than bura! He is unpopular among the LS gals because of his Deer Hunting and Salmon Fishing expeditions and the way he describes his hunting galore with blood and gore like, a shikari, a machera and on top of that he is a Pathan living in the US and his blunt comments are depicting a wrong picture of him. Ask Natalie and she will tell you about his real self.
Btw, this POD is grown in Manchester UK.
khansahab
“desert rose”…..not only that…its all relativity…wait and see what he does to E = MC2 this little Einstein of the 21st century !!!
Javed
“this POD is grown in Manchester UK”
Now you are getting me worried…after my experience of one pod like that…
People seem to be discussing a lot of Abdul, must be a very important figure on LS. hmm desert rose… a beautiful flowering plant but produces deadly toxin!
Yeah Javed, my honesty and my “Seedha pun” has given me a bad boy reputation here on LS but the people who know me think different, chicks at my office call me sexy theossa and they sexually harass me all the time which I don’t mind -:)
Awas, you ever wonder why Abdul like Statistics? Because I think as a cricketer this subject comes natural to him and I bet in near future he’ll be a number wizard.
Also, if you had smoking that U.K. Pod at least you’ll be feeling better now. So don’t say no to smoking.
Vanilla Pod
Welcome to LS.
Yeah Abdul is an important figure but he is not one of those that like attention!
Thanks for the feedback guys.
Theossa,regarding your question of whether a leg spinner can bowl a doosra is being answered. Well a legspinner turns the ball away any how so a doosra doen’t really need to be applied and a legspinner could turn his leg break much more than bolwing a doosra. Therefore, a leg spinner to be an effective matchwinner will have to also try to master the googly and top spinner whereas bowling the doosra won’t really have much of an effect and pretty much just accomplishes his stock delivery.
Meanhile have u heard of the “jalibee ball”. I have created this ball. Well that one can probably be bolwed by a legspinner. However, I don’t look to have more than 3 variations as it becomes complicated and you are better of just keeping your game plan simple and looking to develop on those skills you’ve already developed.Unless your shane warne ofcourse !
I wonder how many twists and turns are there in a Jalibee Ball? Its like kabhee ball agay tou kabhee bowler aagay. Or, kabhee ball peechay tou batsman aagay aur kabhee wicketkeeper neechay tou ball oooper! Abdul have you ever heard of a Russ Gulla Ball and a Chapli Kebab Shot? Ask theossa he will show you the technique of how to extract the best of russ of a gulla ball and how to play with Chapli Kebab.
Btw, how do you fill the sheera in a Jalaibee? You fry the Jalaibee first and then you make the sheera separately and then take a syringe and a needle fill it with sheera and inject it in the Jalaibee. Viola …………………………….. there you go, Jalaibees are ready in a POD.
Wow! “jalibee ball”.
That’s a new invention. What did I say about our little Einstein?
Go Abdul Go…
Here is a question: What are your best figures in a match and at what age?
Abdul, what is a “Jalibee ball”? It can’t be a straighter one from a leg spinner as it is a jalibee, I wonder what it could be? My guess is it’s a conventional leg spin which swings in the air first? I don’t know about Russ Gulla ball which Javed mentioned but Chapli Kabab shot is played in Peshawar in which Batsman hook a bouncer over his head and top of the wicket keeper using the face of the bat. It’s a dangerous shot which need some terrific hand, eye, face, and back foot coordination but when you eat Chapli Kababs made in cow fat you don’t care anymore.
Awas,
I watched the Islam and Science programme. It was interesting, however I have studied that at great length in Religious Studies and Philosophy.
It must have been an eye opener for those who did not know the extent of how prosporous our civilisation once was.
The Muslim world may not be as influnetial nowadays, with regards to medicine, but in the Middle Ages, they were considered revolutionary and so ahead of the barbarians in the Western World.
I watched it mith my parents and it was a bit embarrassing when the sexual connotations kept coming up.
P.s that comment about putting extra layers on was meant for Awas but I put Abdul’s name there by accident. Apologies.
I will stop being nice then
P.p.s. I wouldn’t want to spoil the BF-GF relationship Theossa
Awas mai dekh reha hoon now, you are asking him to describe his figure!
DRC
Oh yeah, I didn’t understand why they said s*x can cause headaches?
Is that why women say…not tonight, I have a headache?
Sex causes headaches?
I thought the best way to get rid of a migraine is to **** someone?
Well I’ve not TRIED it, if that’s the meaning someone can potentially get….
The reason I’m curious is cos, migraines are caused by lack of blood flow in the brain (inter alia) and sexual activity is meant to make the brain “active”, if you know what I mean
OMG!
That was so embarrassing when they were talking about that. I ran out of the living room so fast and into the conservatory!
My parents started laughing.
Hmm yeh I guess maybe the saying originates from there. However, the way it was implied was that the headache was caused by it and not a pre-requisite.
DRC, I wish I could trust your Innocence but “Eik nayam mien do tulwarien nahin reh suktien”. I’m the innocent of this blog and not you. But you know what? I’ll give the benefit of the doubt since all I care about to have peace and harmony on LS and no rifts between anyone.
Gotta go guys, have nice rest of the day.
DRC
Are you trying to tell us that you are not only Bholee but Sharmilee? Come on you are 21 or 22 now and your parents were even laughing, you should sit down and listen to the adult discussion otherwise how are you going to know about the realities of life?
Oh Pakhtoon Pekhowari
It is Mayaan and not nayam.
Theo..
As you wish.
Have a nice day/evening.
Javed
I don’t care about th ‘realities’ of life. I know them but I don’t want to sit with my parents while people are talking about such baqwaas.
Javed
U mean bees and the birds?
Awas my best figures in a match are 5 wickets for 1 run in a t20. I was 15 when doing this but don’t rate it as my greatest bowling performance which was 3-47 in an adult game or 3-3 in a juniors game. I’ve had many great bowling performanes. Probably to many to choose.
My best ever game was when I scored 20 of 8 balls and took 2/2 in 3 overs in a school t20fixture. As regards to club it will probably be picking up 3 wickets and than scoring 40 odd to win the game. But overall bowling has been my priority and role for what I’m reknown for with batting being a bonus.
This year I hope to capture 50 wickets in a club season as it’s my ambition. I’m fell just short in tha last 2 years !
Well done Abdul!
Afridi eat your heart out…
You gonna make even Maulvi Mushy jealous…
On the subject of speaking Punjabi and Urdu…. I think its on the cricket page……… never mind I will write here.
You all have said enough about national language and regional language and whether speaking Punjabi among non-punjabi audience is OK or not? Awas has made some sensible comments as usual. The point is …. courtesy demands even if one person in that group does not understand that language, people must speak in that language which is understood by all.
The educated and well off Punjabis not only want to speak in Urdu but they are more anxious to see their children speak good Urdu. Those who don’t care are obviously paindoos.
And, btw, this language problem is not restricted to Punjabi vs. Urdu and it is not just a Pakistani problem but, it is a global issue. For example here the French do the same as Punjabis and those French who are rich they send their kids to English medium schools, colleges and Universities. They even send them to the US for higher education and also have a second home in the US like, Florida and California (these are the two most popular destinations for the Canadian French population).
The Arabs here want the Jumma Sermon in Arabic only. Just because the Qur’an is in Arabic doesn’t mean the qutba must also be in Arabic only. Islam is not for Arabs only but, for everyone else on this planet earth i.e., whoever wants to be a Muslim. And, people cannot learn languages that easily, especially Arabic & French are very difficult not as much as Chinese and Japanese still very difficult for adults to comprehend it thoroughly. There is a difference between spoken Arabic and Nahavi or the classical and when you want to discuss serious issues its not easy to understand without translation.
The Chinese don’t care about any other language but, they are forced to learn French and they do learn it here and their kids are fluent in French. But, they also learn English because of the multicultural atmosphere.
I’m fell just short in tha last 2 years !
I am agree!
DRC
So do you wish to be with us when we do all this so-called “Baqwaas” btw it is bakwas
I speak bothe Punjabi and Urdu. What does that make me?!
Half-a-paindoo?
Wow
Abdul, seriously I am think you mean business, I thought you didn’t mean it but you certainly know how to play cricket.
I am also impressed by your knowledge of cricket and spin bowling, I am agree actually that you should always keep your ambitions high and stamp your authority, whether it is playing cricket, or studying. Aim high.
You are young and I am wish you success in cricket and studies.
DRC
Even if you speak Punjabi all the time, you are not like a Paindoo.
It’s difficult to explain, but for eg you don’t say “I am agree”.
And you can reason, talk, you show maturity and you are sensible. You don’t stamp your authority whether it is cricket, politics, girls or boys, or studies.
Half a Paindoo
DRC
The point is not about speaking languages it is about behaving in public, displaying courtesy and modesty i.e., if in a Mehfil there are a few non-Punjabi speaking folks, do you speak ONLY in Punjabi? Or, you care about the other people who don’t understand and speak in Urdu or English which is understood by ALL.
Reading khansahab’s comment 304, I finally understood the meaning of ‘stamp my authority’. You learn something everyday!!!
Thanx Abdul!
Javed
When you guys talk ‘baqwaas’ I just say chi chi and go read or do something else. What more can I expect from a male orientated board
Khan sahab
I find it funny when people say I am sensible LOL, but if you say so.
You know when I was about 3 years old, I could not speak English, albeit the alphabet. My parents taught me Urdu/Punjabi first and I only started speaking fluent English at the age of 5.
When I was in nursery I used to talk in Urdu/Punjabi with the staff and teachers hehe. Taught them a thing or too as well
DRC
Once again ……. like I said b4, there is no problem in speaking any language but when you “stamp your authority” on everyone by forcing people to listen to you in Punjabi only, then you are a paindoo. Bakaoz you don’t care about anyone else but the language you speak is more important to you than any other language or people.
Some Punjabi guy responded to a similar question by saying this:
kuch lokan di sochni eh hai k punjabi bolan da matlab hai dooji zubaan nu pare karna hai…par nahi…eh bahut waddi galat fehmi hai…na samjhi hai…punjabi bare lokan nu aware karan da matlab eh nahi k tusi Urdu nu chaddo…ehda matlab eh hai k jithe 2 punjabi khade ne oh aapis ch punjabi bolan…kyo k uhna dona di madari zubaan punjabi hai…je oh Urdu ch gal karan tan eh sharam naak hai…jithe dooja banda punjabi nahi hai..uthe tuhanu kise common bhasha ch gal karni payegi & uhde ch koi problem b nahi hai…
main aj kal dekhi ch reh riha…ethe zyada log Urdu bolan/samjhan aale milange…and mainu koi mushkil ya takleef nahi hai Urdu bolan ch…. par je main punjab javan te uthe ja ke Urdu bolan…eh te sharam di gal hai na ?
naale ik hor gal…shayad thonu thodi aaukhi lagge….par eh jihde lok punjabi chad k Urdu bolde ne…eh sakke Urdu de b nahi….mahol karke ya padai likhai karke…angreji ehna di wass ch nahi….nahi te ehna ne Urdu chad ke angreji te a jana….
This is the philosophy of a Paidoo and this is how he thinks!
DRC
yeh i so agree with you. This is somewhat a male oriented blog. Some messages are confusing as if they are sending each other subliminal messages, not to be understood by anyone else other than their own clan.
lol, to be honest I woudnt want to know what they actually mean…or refer to etc.
does anyone else think, jokes when said in punjabi are funnier than urdu?
In a non-punjabi mehfil I tend to speak English or if necessary Urdu.
If it is an aunty only mehfil, I stay quiet
DRC
I am glad you mentioned that…what you speak. I said the same in comment 93 on the main thread. I’m glad I am not the only one. Perceptions are worse than reality.
Vanilla Pod
About jokes…I don’t know the answer but what I can say is that it really comes down to how you say it. That’s most important.
LOL @ subliminal messages, VP we are not a clan, this is so typical of guys that they use a vocabulary which is common among guys only and gals seldom pay any heed to those expressions, connotations or whatever you may call them hence they don’t know what it means but, they are not subliminal messages.
For e.g., in Karachi when guys see a girl who is very smart they call her Gajjak and when they want to refer to a particular girl for whom one of his friends is head over heels, they say “tumharee Cutto” the word Cutto is so typical Karachiite that other than Karachi no one uses it.
Its like kids these days use words repeatedly

I am agree on that……. Jokes sunanay walay per munhasar hai, chahay wo Punjabi may ho ya Urdu may ….. if you ask abdul to tell you a joke you might laugh without understanding it.
Punjabi guys say, in Punjabi Hurr Gull day 2 matlab haingay! O kainda, Cudd kay dikhao. Kainda…. Chudd do ina we 2 matlab hainge.
Well, thats sheer ignorance because in Urdu also they say;
Urdu itni shusta zubaan hai kay hurr baat kay Zoo mainay hotay hain
Poocha; nikal ker dikhao
Jawab mila: rehnay dou iskay bhee 2 mainay hain.
Now, it depends on who says what and how he presents it. Telling jokes is an art.
Rule number one is never tell jokes when you are sitting, stand up and say!
Don’t ask me why?
Javed
thanks for the clarification.
gajak lols its so funny, yummy stuff tho

You should have seen Moin Akhtar’s TV programme in which he describes a girl who was famous as Gajjak.
One day she wears starched shalwar kameez and the guy yells:
Aaj tou kara ree hai Gajjak.
The next day she wears a loose shalwar kameez and the guy yells:
Aaj tou Burree hai Gajjak
The next day the girl brings her younger brother along and the guy yells:
Aaj tou BATASHAY ko sath layee hai Gajjak.

Vanilla Pod
Tell us about that name’s background. Some special liking for Vanilla? So, I guess you are not a chocolate person then?
Any interest in cricket?
Awas
Vanilla smells nice, thats why I chose this name. to be honest i couldnt think of any other ones (not very creative). I like chocolate too.
I like cricket, esp the 20-20s and one day cricket matches. they are colourful and fast. test matches i find very dull.
and jalebi ball and gol gappa ball etc i cant really differentiate (embarrassed).
Vanilla Pod
Humm!
Vanilla, chocolate, goal gappa…not much left after that…Loll
We all like that stuff. Lately, I have been thinking of Kanji a lot. The one made out with purple (almost black) carrots that they make in a Matka with Kalwanji and what not in it. The drink of this stuff is tangy and lovely. If you still don’t know what it is ask your folks… Javed at least, I ‘m sure will know what I’m talking about.
The reason I was thinking of it lately is that recently in a Lebanese Rest. They served some of those carrots which were exactly the same. So, I guess we have a lot of influence from Arab food as well.
I think from now I do want to ‘stamp my authority’ and only converse in punjabi…:D

Allah Hafiz
Folks just coming back from a meeting but thought some of you might find the following article useful.
Just because a product’s marketing gives it an aura of health doesn’t necessarily mean it’s good for you. Here, eight notorious health food impostors, plus smarter swaps that up the nutritional ante and still give you the flavor you crave.
Baked potato chips
Yes, they’re lower in fat. But they’re still high in calories and low in nutrients, with little fiber to fill you up.
Smarter sub: Popcorn. You’ll get the salt and crunch of chips plus fiber, and around 65 percent fewer calories per cup. Look for oil-free microwave popcorn or brands that are air-popped or popped in healthful oils such as olive or canola.
Health bonus: Heart-healthy whole grains. Adults who eat popcorn take in as much as 2 1/2 times more whole grains than people who do not, according to a recent study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association.
Try: Good Health HalfNaked pre-popped popcorn, made with olive oil. One serving (4 cups) has 120 calories, 0 g sat fat, 4 g fiber.
Gummy fruit snacks
Although these products may contain some juice, they’re usually nothing more than candy infused with vitamins. They also contain high fructose corn syrup, which is linked with obesity, and heart-unhealthy partially hydrogenated oils.
Smarter sub: Fresh or dried fruit. Both are packed with filling fiber, which you’ll miss if you opt for gummy snacks.
Health bonus: Cancer-fighting antioxidants. Real fruit is loaded with immune-boosting nutrients that fruit-flavored snacks could never mimic. A recent Greek study found that women who ate the most fruits and veggies were the least likely to develop any type of cancer.
Light ice cream
Light ice cream can have fewer calories than regular, but there’s no guarantee. Take Häagen-Dazs Dulce de Leche light ice cream: With 220 calories per 1/2 cup serving, it’s still higher in calories than the average full-fat ice cream, which has around 140 calories per serving. What’s more, some light ice creams can lack the rich taste you crave, so you’re less satisfied and may be inclined to eat more than one serving.
Smarter sub: Dairy-free ice cream. Soy and coconut milk ice creams may save you a few calories, and they have a creamy, satisfying texture.
Health bonus: Digestion-friendly fiber. Some dairy-free ice creams are made with chicory root, a natural source of inulin, a prebiotic fiber that can increase healthy bacteria in the gut and help the body absorb calcium and iron.
Try: Turtle Mountain Purely Decadent, made with coconut milk. One serving (1/2 cup) of vanilla has 150 calories, 7 g sat fat, and 6 g fiber. (Studies show that the saturated fat in coconut may not raise cholesterol like the saturated fat in butter and meat.)
Diet soda
In a 2008 study, researchers linked drinking just one diet soda a day with metabolic syndrome — the collection of symptoms including belly fat that puts you at high risk of heart disease. Researchers aren’t sure if it’s an ingredient in diet soda or the drinkers’ eating habits that caused the association
Smarter sub: Flavored seltzer water. It has zero calories and is free of artificial sweeteners but provides fizz and flavor. Beware of clear sparkling beverages that look like seltzer yet contain artificial sweeteners — they’re no better than diet soda. Or try a sparkling juice; we recommend watering it down with seltzer to stretch your calories even further.
Health bonus: Hydration (without chemicals). Water is essential for nearly everybody process.
Try: Your supermarket’s low-cost seltzer brand. The taste is the same as the bigger name brands.

Even though some spray margarines claim to be “calorie-free,” labeling laws allow products with fewer than 5 calories per serving to claim to have zero calories. So, while one spritz may be inconsequential, the whole bottle could have as much as 900 calories.
Smarter sub: Spray-it-yourself olive oil. In this case, a bit of real fat is more healthful and flavorful — and within a reasonable calorie range if you watch your portions. Investing in an olive oil mister ensures you don’t put on too much.
Health bonus: Decreased inflammation throughout the body, which helps your heart and lowers cancer risk, thanks to monounsaturated fatty acids.
Try: Misto olive oil sprayer. Find one at any kitchen store for around $10.
Nonfat salad dressing
Fat-free salad dressings are often packed with sugar — so your dressing may be loaded with calories. Ironically, a salad without fat is not living up to its potential. “You need a little fat to absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K and other nutrients,” says Katherine Tallmadge, RD, spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association.
Smarter sub: Oil-based salad dressings. You’ll get good-for-you fats instead of the saturated fat found in some creamy dressings. Look for ingredients like olive oil, vinegar, and herbs.
Health bonus: Vision protection. As many as five times more carotenoids — antioxidants that are essential for eye-sight — are absorbed when salads are consumed with fat rather than with no fat.
Try: Newman’s Own Olive Oil & Vinegar Dressing. Two tablespoons have 150 calories, 2.5 g sat fat, 0 g fiber.
Low-fat cookies
Do you remember the SnackWell’s craze? Low-fat cookies are still popular, and many dieters think they can indulge guilt free. The problem is that most of these snacks are made with extra sugar, which means they often have just as many calories as the full-fat version, if not more.
Smarter sub: Oatmeal cookies. These are a great way to indulge a cookie craving while also getting whole grains. Not all are created equal, though: Skip those made with high fructose corn syrup, white flour, and butter in favor of varieties made with honey or cane juice, whole wheat flour, and oil.
Health bonus: Lower cholesterol. The fiber found in oatmeal keeps your body from absorbing bad cholesterol.
Try: Kashi TLC Cookies. One cookie has 130 calories, 1.5 g sat fat, 4 g fiber.
100-calorie snack packs
You might want to skip these if you’re trying to lose weight. A recent study showed that people may eat more food and calories if the portions are presented in small sizes and packages. With smaller serving sizes, study participants didn’t feel the need to regulate their intake, so they ate more than one portion before feeling satisfied
its really interesting to see how people make different food dishes.
I recently had a nice dish made out of seekh kebabs mixed in gravy, which was scrumptious. it does involve a lot of mehnat as its a combination of two dishes mixed together.
i have never heard of kanji before. the only dish i know made out of carrots is gajar ka halwa
Theossa
OMG!! thanks for the eye opener
VP
If you have eaten both Chicken Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken, which one do you prefer?
Khansahab,
Chicken tikka with paratha is the best. There is also this halwa which is made in pure ghee. There was this place Bandoo Khan in Karachi and that had the best halwa and kaba paratha.
Khansahab
A very difficult question indeed..
I think chicken tikka masala can be eaten when ones craving for spicey stuff whereas butter chicken is creamy and ‘sondha’.
i will prefer chicken tikka masala
Omer
I’ve had Bundoo Khan in Gulshan, it was quite famous.
The best desi food I’ve had was in Silver Spoon (Kebab Roll), Javed ki Nihari (best nihari) and Student Biryani (unparalleled).
I heard Boti Kebab of Bundoo Khan was good.
khansahab
student ki biryani..oh yes!!!
they take it out of a plate from the daig..yummy
Yea they all are really good the ones you mention, and add to that Al Habib Karahi on the karachi highway. I like Nihari and Biryani but I really miss karahi and the kabab parathas. I kind of stopped liking rice after I ate Chinese food for 7 consecutive days. That was it– my thing for rice just turned around– now I just like naan or normal roti.
There used to be a “King’s and Queen’s Pizza Parlour” in Gulshan and Tariq Road.
Does anyone know what happened to it?
Also, Mr Burger….I remember it was so tasty! Mr Burger ruled before McDonald’s and KFC took over.
Pizza Hut man. Kings and Queens went out of bussiness when pizza hut came. But p[izza hut over there is much better than here for some reason. There was Ghaffar Kabab place, it probably had the best kababs. The most ultimate is BBQ tonight though, the lambchops were the best.
Pizza Hut was super, totally agree with you.
I still remember the taste of their Chicken Tikka pizza, it is the best thing I ever had in my life.
I remember they used to come to our school with their Tikka Pizza and there used to be a long queue. Oh those were the days
Actually Omer, Kings and Queens were very good when they were around. They had these wonderful subs, and very good quality pizzas. The atmosphere was very good too, even though the pizza’s were not as expensive as Pizza Hut & Co, simpletons didn’t go to Kings and Queens.
isn’t bheja lacking the sweetener these days?
Awas that Kanji is not Karachi delicacy but Lahore’s and its made from Shalgham or Shaljam with Kalonjee which is basically onion seed, yes its nice the pink water. The Arabic pink dill pickles are the same but not exactly the Pakistani version. The serve it as starters with Hummus and Mutabbal and they also put them in the Shawarma.
I had to go out for dinner right now otherwise I would have taken you all down in the memory lane by talking about HANIFIA’s HUNTER BEEF & Beef Burger.
ttyl.
Did u guys not read Theo’s post on Healthy foods? lol
Theo, i trust DRC & mostly BF hehehe
Sweetie you sure about that
?
Javed
I knew you will know about kanji.
Yep those dill pickles, that’s what I meant. Believe me the taste is exactly the same. I trust my taste buds. I think the stuff they put in the pickled water cannot be much different.
Oh yeah, hunter beef. I loved it. We used to get it supplied from Karachi until they stared selling in Twilton market, Lahore.
Sweetie
With such fleeting appearances, are u still in exile?
DRC, Ummmm I’m sure about BF, but now im not so sure about u
lol
VP
Thank you for saying you prefer Chicken Tikka Masala over Butter Chicken BAKAOZ, this Butter Chicken is not authentic Moghul cuisine but, a recent creation by some amateur Bangladeshi restaurant cooks in the UK and North America to cater to the needs of Gora Aam Aadmi. Those ignorant blokes like the bland taste and they think its a spicy curry.
Generally the way they have been preparing Butter Chicken in restaurants is by using masala packets loaded with MSG and then adding a tin of evaporated milk in the end and let it simmer for a while. And, recently some of the cooks are using 15% cooking cream. They also use the same cream for Kofta Malai Makhani…….. another new jazzy name by Indian Restaurant Chefs.
The real authentic roghni murgh masala has disappeared and Butter Chicken has taken its place, because thats hard to make also, th various types of Koftas like, the kucchay keemay kay koftay and then the cooked keema pees ker koftay along with roasted chic peas and spices. Also, the stuffed koftay with onion, green chillies, green corriander and mint.
And the Nargisi Koftay (with egg stuffing) are hard to be seen these days. Neither the restaurant guys know how to cook nor the new generation Khawateen, they all rely totally and entirely on SHAN MASALA PACKETS and don’t know how to make the authentic koftay! Only a few well known gharanas keep the tradition alive and take pride in their cooking……. things like Pasanday, damm ka keema, Rampuri Stew, Taar Gosht, Achar Gosht, Do Piaza etc. are a rarity. Like, the Channa Daal Halwa topped with Chaandi ka warq and loaded with malai………….
I don’t mind eating burgers or pizza once in a while but when it comes to good food, I prefer the traditional culinary cuisine and my taste buds are very pedigreed. I just cannot accept variations in the old traditional dishes. However, one can always create new recipes and keep on improvising and thats another thing. But, you cannot deviate from the original recipe of Yakhni Pulao by adding a packet of Shan Masala. Its criminal.
Theossa @ Comment No. 324 …
You missed the nutritional values of our famous half-a-kilo Chapali Kabab made with pure beef and tar-ba-tar (deeply) fried in wholesome cow’s charbee (fat), gratifyingly guzzled down with a meter long Naan
Our Pakistani men while eating have only one philosophy … “Jo Raat Qaber (grave) Mein Likhy Hai, Wo Baher Ho Naheen Sakti”.
Javed A Khan
My dad has the same views on Yukhni Pulao, he makes it himself without any masala packets.
My mum makes koftay with green masala stuffed in the,. yummy stuff..it has green coriander, mint leaves and green chillies in them
I don’t like Koftay!
khansahab
bandar kia jaanay adrak ka maza!
“bandar kia jaanay adrak ka maza”! …loll Good one.
VP, the type of kofte you mention is mouthwatering. I love them too. Tell your mum to send me an invitation, next time she has a Daawat
My mum makes the most wonderful biriani that all relatives and friends admire…real authentic stuff made out of yakhni…nothing like what you get here at desi restaurants which is just rice added in slain gosht.
Lamb biriani is the authentic one, not chicken. I think the main difference in pilao and biriani is that a lot of milk and yoghurt is added in biriani and more work and delicate handling is involved in making it.
And the other thing…the meat is supposed to be mainly lamb breast…the chickna type in that biriani yakhni not chops and stuff like that.
Kiowoon Javed?
Javed
Please do not stereotype all ‘new generation khawateen’. None of the women in our family use packet masala and such substitutes in their cuisine. I have followed suit and I don’t use them either.
Sweetie,
I won’t get in the way of your GF-BF rishta
He’s all yours
I guess I am a kismet-wala ba-kaouz two women are fighting for me- GF and DRC
But what I really want is Governor Salman Taseer’s missus….
who is old enough to be an aunty
I think you should rephrase the last line. That just sounds wrong.
P.s. No I am not fighting, just merely clarifying something which Theo started
DRC
Why, can a young man not like a hot aunty?
They say a woman can be a source of conflict between two men, but here our Theossa started a legendary battle between DRC and GF
When we have 16 year old girls saying they find 43 year old Shahrukh Khan attractive, can I not like this 45 year old aunty?
It sounds as if you are wanting TWO different women and one being your relative. Read it again. Maybe you need put it in speech marks?!
I know you want me to fight for you, but I can’t
You can like the aunty. That is fine my me, but please do not imply something else.
I don’t knwo if you will understand what I am saying about the aunty reference
LOL I don’t know what you are saying there DRC, what I blabbed was just a frustrated joke which I think might have been taken too seriously!!!
Or are you doing this cos you think I have been mean to some juvenile delinquents!?
“But what I really want is Governor Salman Taseer’s missus….and my aunty ”
That sounds as if you want the Gov’s wife AND your aunty; not one and the same person.
I understand it was a joke, it just came out wrong. I think it must have sounded better in your head
You can be mean to whoever you want, after yesterday I know you weren’t listening to what I was saying LOL.
DRC
So much for pedantry; I’ve edited my controversial comment.
I think you have too much of a soft spot for our juvenile delinquent community
They should be in prison
Now you know how my English became successful LOL!
Silly, you should have just taken the and out and it would have made sense.
I have a soft spot for humankind. That said person is not a juvenile
May be I need to divert my soft spot elsewhere?
P.s. my blocked nose has disappeared wooohhooo!
I don’t know why women and Abdul don’t always get the jokes…only sometimes
khansahab, on this one I am right behind you. I wonder if there should be a prison for juvenile delinquents
DRC
I like “you should have just taken the and out and it would have made sense”. Good one!
Sorry, I take my earlier comment back.
Yes khansahab you don’t like koftay because you are the spaghetti and meat ball generation
Thought of the day:
There is definitely a generation gap…
DRC: “my blocked nose has disappeared wooohhooo!”
Oh my God DRC. And have you reported this matter to the police?
Now, lets see how many mistakes rather bloopers, Sweetie and Theo’s famous President George Dubiya made. Ermmmmmm they are countless but, lemme post a few of his butchered language bloopers.
# “Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning?”
# “There’s an old saying in Tennessee – I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee – that says, fool me once, shame on – shame on you. Fool me – you can’t get fooled again.” – Sept. 17, 2002, in Nashville, Tenn.
# “Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.” – Aug. 5, 2004, at the signing ceremony for a defense spending bill.
# “Too many good docs are getting out of business. Too many OB/GYNs aren’t able to practice their love with women all across this country.” – Sept. 6, 2004, at a rally in Poplar Bluff, Mo.
# “I remember meeting a mother of a child who was abducted by the North Koreans right here in the Oval Office.” – June 26, 2008, during a Rose Garden news briefing.
# “This thaw – took a while to thaw, it’s going to take a while to unthaw.” Oct. 20, 2008, in Alexandria, La., as he discussed the economy and frozen credit markets.
Javed A Khan
Dubiya is a bit like our Gillani saab, both are dull, incompetent and intellectual lightweights.
Gillani saab said,
“We are totally agree with our Turkish brothers”
DRC - I don’t know your family so my comments are not directed towards your family but, trust me more than 90% of the people use Shan Masala Packets and they proudly say that. And thats why the food taste just the same if you go from one house to the other. But, there are a few who are home proud and kitchen proud who use everything from scratch. You eat in desi restaurants they do the same and over here in desi restaurants, whenever you order biryani you see the food colour instead of saffron, I don’t understand why they do it, because here you can afford saffron, its not too expensive as compared to India / Pakistan.
Anyways, I didn’t read the comment from VP when she wrote Bandar kya janay adrak ka mazaa? Thats very apt but, khansahab might ask what is adrak? Like my niece once asked ‘what are you cooking?’ I said, I am making bhindi and she asked what is bhindi? And in the meantime she came near the cooker and saw bhindi in the karai and said, “Oh……. Lady fingers ! “
Javed A Khan
I know adrak is garlic or ginger.
I think Lassan is garlic.
Awas “Kiowoon Javed?”
You don’t have to put me in a situation where the khawateens get embarrassed, you must have seen there is already a Digitally Recorded Computer message telling me to stop stereotyping about Khwarteens.
Traditionally Yakhni pulao is made from beef and not lamb and, yes the breast meat (not chops) are used because of the fatty type…..chewable bones which in case of beef are more meaty than lamb. However, I also add the shank meant to the Pulao because that doesn’t have the raisha (fiber) or threads and it tastes good. They say the test of a good pulao is you don’t need anything else, not even raita to eat with. Whereas, biryani without raita is “kimpossible” to imagine.
I never eat biryani at restaurants because of the food colour they use and also, you have said it right, “its saalan with rice” in the traditional biryani there is no red chilly powder, the colour of the saffron should not dominate it should be partially saffronish and white. And, the rice must not be sticky but, “khilwa” and yet very tender and soft.
LOL…. I was right about khansahab he was not sure whether it is garlic or ginger but finally he guessed it right. VP, thats what we say “hara masala” stuffed in Koftay. Also the same ingredients plus a little adrak and lemon is added for making stuffed shami kebabs. Actually the original shami kebabs from Syria does not have any stuffing. Its the Iranians and later us desis started stuffing hara masala in the shami kebabs and the Iranians gave a name “Shikam Purr Kebabs” Shikam means stomach and Purr is filled.
Its time for Paratha breakfast and then off to work…… Theo what kinda sandwich you have for lunch today? Same old Tuna?
DRC is constantly reminding me of Mr. Darcy from pride and prejudice, not cos of the character or anything but just how you say the names
oh i remember during my undergrad degree, i used to go to my SU to have sandwiches. you could get as many fillings as u would like just for £1.99. You could get bagels too.
(i am not greedy, even tho i may sound like a lalchi insaan)

Vanilla iPod, Two thumbs up!
I’m born of June 3 and your June personality traits mimic all my good traits. Why they never talk about the bad traits? Oh, I don’t have any -:)
HHMmmm
Interesting stuff VP!
Theossa
See I didn’t know you were born in June but I told you of so many traits this article confirms you have got!
thank you khansahab and theossa
LOL Khansahab, this is just cheesy stuff to make people happy. If it was true then just think about Munir was also born in June (pun intended -:)
VP
It’s August for me but I see something that applies to me mentioned in every month.
Do people really believe this stuff?
Theossa/Awas
It’s a bit different for me because I was born in July and most of what it says is true about me…..and interestingly most of that info is not mentioned in the other months!
Apart from that there’s no reason for me to believe this kinda stuff.
Awas
I dont believe in this stuff, but I dont mind reading what it says about the month i was born in
LOL khansahab, the July months has the following traits: Concerned about people’s feelings, Not revengeful, Sensitive and forms impressions carefully, Caring and loving.
I think Abdul will disagree with that -:)
Theossa
I think Abdul should disagree with that, because if he was to agree he might say, “I am agree”.
Seriously though, I haven’t been that harsh on Abdul. I can assure you Abdul has not seen my vengeful side yet
Jokes apart, that info contains my fair share of bad qualities too. And unlike someone I know, it doesn’t say I have the looks of a movie star
Javed @ 365
Ok, that was Bush then, what you say now? We have a president who is eloquent and has an intoxicating personality. The new Messiah as German newspaper described him -:)
Khansahab, I forgot to mention another July trait which you definitely don’t possess i.e. Strong sense of sympathy. This trait definitely belongs to DRC.
Sweetie
I
told you so about DRC -:) Look at her August traits: takes risks, No self-control, Has an “every thing’s peachy” attitude, and the traits that need good attention: in need of “that someone”, Always a suspect
LOL
Theossa
I know it’s hard but please come up with a GOOD trait of mine too!
Now that I have blurted out my birth month, who is gonna send me birthday cards?
Here is why I said it is rubbish by analysing my month:
Aug
“Outgoing personality”….rubbish…I’m more homely type. I only love travel.
“takes risks”….sometimes…we all do.
“feeds on attention”. …YES!
Don’t we all?
“No self-control”…complete rubbish.
“Kind hearted”….Yep!
“Self-confident”. ..yep!
“Loud and boisterous”…I don’t think so.
“VERY revengeful”…. Not so far.
“Easy to get along with and talk to”….yep!
Has an “every thing’s peachy” attitude…don’t know that!
“Likes talking and singing”….no singing…only listening
“Loves musi”c….yep
“Daydreame”r…Never!
“Easily distracted”….only for LS
“Hates not being trusted.”…YEP!
“BIG imagination”…. If you say so!
“Loves to be loved”…. Definitely, who doesn’t?
Hates studying…Yep
[in need of “that someone”. Longs for freedom. Rebellious when withheld or restricted. Lives by “no pain no gain” caring. Always a suspect. Playful. Mysterious. “charming” or “beautiful” to everyone. stubborn. curious. Independent. Strong willed. A fighter.] …Now its getting too much, I give up.
In the same way, I can easily analyse at least one or two people here. Any volunteers?
Khansahab, since you asked me here it is:
DRC and Sweetie pay attention -:)
Khansahab has brilliant intelligence (you might know this already) for just a 21 year old. The thing you don’t know about him is: he has quite a personality to go with it, attractive face with high cheek bones, and large illuminated eyes. A lady killer by default -:)
Awas, analyze Abdul since he is a mysterious fella.
Theossa
I had enlarged my eyes when I was snapping that photo because my eyes are very small.
And I am not 21 anymore
So this is what you think of me:
1) intelligent
2) good looking
3) bad heart/unsympathetic
I would think you’re talking about pretty Pakistani girls if you take point 1 away from that list
Wow Khansahab that’s some ferocious hit on Pak girls! Why you think they are not intelligent?
Theossa
Javed A Khan once remarked, and I agreed that “Sarra ussan Punjab mai hai….but they are beauties without brains…..”
And you know my favourite poem:
Sarra ussan Punjab mai hai
Par Punjab da dill Lahore hai
Ba-kaouz Lahore Lahore hai……
Khansahab , I’m disappointed that you and Javed think all Punjabi girls are brainless. That’s generalization and I protest!
Theo, nuthing i wasn’t aware of
BF, i wasn’t fightin with DRC.. no way! lol Like i said , ull always be BF.
Javed, our dumbass pres. … what can i say about him.. He’s gonna be missed dearly.. By the late night show hosts ! LOL
Theossa
I am agree.
To be honest we neither think all Punjabi girls are brainless, nor do we think all Punjabi men are Paindoos. Certainly people like Awas, the politician Shah Mahmood Qureshi and some Punjabi gentlemen I know, are anything but Paindoo. By the grace of the Almighty, Awas is more cultivated and mature than almost everyone that I know.
HOWEVER we think a considerable number of Punjabi women are quite attractive ba-kaouz sarra ‘ussan Punjab mai hai….
Agreed Khansahab, I especially like the beauties from Multan, there is something about them, the way they look and they way they talk Siraikee, very salty -:)
Theossa
A lot of guys like the Seraiki ladies in villages- they are usually wheatish in complexion and considered attractive.
I had a friend who was once travelling from Karachi to Lahore in a bus and there as one of these ladies. He felt attracted to her and complimented her and she said, “Mundey tu baaz aaja”
The ones I like are the fashionable and fair skinned ones, some of them look Arabic or Eastern European if they dye their hair. They look so hot
Thank you khansahab!
But, I just repeat what Theossa said earlier:
“LOL khansahab, this is just cheesy stuff to make people happy”.
In my own words I would say this though:
I believe, a person who praises others and appreciates the good traits in others is in fact a bigger person..
I guess that’s the reason you praise Abdul less because you don’t really consider yourself better than him
He is a wizard of (cricketing) oz.
Khansahab, about fair skinned ladies, “ghur ke murghi daal braber”.
Awas, you know when we’ll be old and smoking a “Hoqqa” full of opium, sitting in a “Charpai”, coughing our lungs out, Abdul will be destroying batting lines all around the World with his googly, jalibee, and what not. Too bad he’s British, what a loss to Pakistan! Shame on you Zardari.
Theo
“Hoqqa”…may be not…I’m never gonna move away from my ‘peace pipe’.
….yeah, a big loss…Zardari shame on you for not spotting a real gem.
LOL Theo I am so not out of control. You also do not have to ‘sell’ Khansahab’s admirable qualities. I know about them already
Awas,
I am glad you got my earlier message, correcting Khansahab. :_
Javed
Yeh I reported my blocked nose missing
Police said they can’t do anything about it
Theossa
Didn’t really get what you meant by comment 399…I know that Urdu phrase means that one doesn’t appreciate some good thing in his own house…..but I don’t get how that applies to our discussion?
Outgoing personality. takes risks. feeds on attention. No self-control. Kind hearted. Self-confident. Loud and boisterous. VERY revengeful. Easy to get along with and talk to. Has an “every thing’s peachy” attitude. Likes talking and singing. Loves music. Daydreamer. Easily distracted. Hates not being trusted. BIG imagination. Loves to be loved. Hates studying. in need of “that someone”. Longs for freedom. Rebellious when withheld or restricted. Lives by “no pain no gain” caring. Always a suspect. Playful. Mysterious. “charming” or “beautiful” to everyone. stubborn. curious. Independent. Strong willed. A fighter.
I only agree with 10-11 of those statements.
Awas and Theo don’t worry birthday cards will be in the post
DRC
I think we should only post birthday cards to those people who tell us of their “years of birth” too.
I mentioned it higher above 1740…
Khansahab..
Now, now..we do not want to embarrass these ‘gentlemen’
Yeah Awas too bad, why don’t Zardari, ISI, and Salim Altaf look for emerging talent in cricket? Our team needs some young blood. Why not put an “F Contract” (future prospect) together and pay young talent like Abdul, Mohd Amir, Saeed
Anwer Jr?
Awas, what country will Abdul play for if Pakistan wants to bring him back? I hope he says yes to such an offer.
Sweetie
Where are you? Look, what DRC wrote in her comment# 402 which should have been comment# 420, she said, “You also do not have to ’sell’ Khansahab’s admirable qualities. I know about them already, winks”. What’s going on here?
You believe me now?
DRC
Show yourself, which qualities you possess? I bet you are not going to tell us because Wicked Witch of West will be all over you -:)
LOL Theo!

DRC
You have almost said how I analysed it above.
I don’t believe a word of such rubbish.
Sweetie, “La hola wala quuwat”, I didn’t mean literally all over DRC, you have such a sick imagination but I’m pleased that you know the “Real DRC” now.
DRC and Khansahab
I’m 44 years old and born on June 3rd so do a little math. Oh, I’m too old my back hurts so I’m gonna do some stretching. Ehhhhh, it feels good.
DRC
You actually said yes to almost all of them so I was quite right. Plus you said you are “Easy”, I mean to talk to and such -:)
Awas, what date is your birthday?
DRC
Can I whisper?
Theo
P.s. you have me soooo wrong
Awas, if you don’t want to write it here, you can email me later
along with your bank account details, address and anything else you want to share
DRC
Awas in an accountant so he doesn’t need you to “analyse” his finances.
Thanks for offering to help anyway
I thought Awas might want to help the DRC student fund.
P.s. that was pretty good for you hahaha. I’m still laughing
I just remember I might be 46 years old, just wanted to be honest.
Gotta go guys, have a nice day.
Allah Hafiz Theossa Uncle…
theossa
tell us about how you got this name. it seems like having a greek or latin descent. something like medussa..hehe but instead of serpents coming out of the head there is sumthing coming out of the mouth…
VP
It might be a word of Pushtu
khansahab
Lol @ analysing finances… But I do need a shrink though to ‘analyse this’. Any offers?
By the way, DRC scored another one on you when she said “P.s. that was pretty good for you hahaha”. First it was “and” wala and now this. Wow!
Humm…something tells me she is not really what she makes out to be. I am beginning to believe Theossa what he says about DRC.
VP
“it seems like having a greek or latin descent”
Well, obviously we all have the genes of Alexander The Great from his conquests ever since he passed through that Khyber Pass”
Awas,
I wouldn’t feel comfortable saying those comments to other LS members, I don’t mind saying it to Khansahab as I know him
.
By the way, if you want to be analysed, I can offer my services as I studied psychology at A’level
Oh gosh…you are going to believe Theo?!
*shock horror/passes out*
DRC
“psychology” Wow!
I need khansahab’s permission first.
DRC
Go ahead but please don’t brainwash him
i also studied psychology at A levels…my services are open too.
and ofcourse i certainly have greek genes in me…pathani i am!
Hmm ok why did you need Khansahab’s permission hehe?
Ok what would like me to analyse Awas?
P.s. Khansahab, as if I would do anything like that
DRC / VP
Now two is a company but three is a crowd. So, no more than two please…(oh, my God its two).
And the other thing…two heads are better than one even if one of them is yours
I’ll express my symptoms laters. Le’me sleep over it…
I will let VP go ahead and analyse you in that case
Shabba khair/Allah Hafiz
Awas has very conveniently closed the issue.
however i could analyse khansahab’s psyche…
sweet dreams DRC x
Hmmmm… Theooooo u were right!!! @ DRC’s comment ‘I don’t mind saying it to Khansahab as I know him
.’!!
BF, u have to pick NOW! . Either tat or i dump u lolllll
Awas u can be BF! lol
I’m going to become a nun. you can whoever you want Sweetie.
Maarrrr gaye!
VP
Not closed…
I am an open book. More tomorrow…
Good nit
good nite awas sweet dreams
LOL @ Theossa …
Good you explained that it was just a ‘pun intended’ kinda comment.
What applies to one Gemini, have to apply to another … right?
But, we both may have different ways of fun and entertainments, as I can’t kill ‘dears’ in a desert
Munir
Which “dears”???
I hope u are not talking about Sweetie, DRC or VP here…as you have never called Abdul or any of the other guys Dear before
And just you remember there is only one Deer Hunter…
There may be one ‘Deer’ Hunter ….. But there are surely many ‘Dear’ Hunters around
Munir
I knew there was something fishy in your intentions…I hope Bhabi doesn’t look at LS.
Girls be warned there is someone other than a Deer Hunter out on a hunt
Thankfully, I am a Nun, so I am safe!
Aaah, DRC, I am disappointed. I was only joking…Munir is a good man!
I know you were joking, fikar not!
I’m happy when we all understand
Ye sub prossi waalley aaj kidher gaye…?
DRC…
Fikar Naat ….
Actually, I am a ‘non’-hunter only
i think sab prossy walay scared hogaye…of getting hunted
oh im sorry, awas i couldnt understand what prossi is..i just wrote it thinking it was parosi as in neighbours..hehe sorry
Hey VP…good to see people are returning. Lol @ “getting hunted”.
I never pride myself writing Urdu in English words…but yeah you sussed it right it’s the same prossi. In other words bajoo waaley
Actually, why should “prossi” be as “parosi”? There is no sound of an A when you actually say the word or even when you write in Urdu.
i dunno awas, my knowledge is meagre about everything..u r prolly right..i think i say it wrong cos i take out an A ki sound in prossi..hehe
VP
“my knowledge is meagre about everything”. Yeah right….as though I really believe you!!!
You make me sound like as though I’m an Urdu scholar…I can only wish
Hang about…I need to smoke a peace pipe…more laters ”I’ll be back”
wish all you want awas!!! the best part is that its completely freeee!!!!
Ok, you two psychoanalysts, I wasn’t running away, so here is the problem:
First, I need a head examined, but it’s not mine (and I promise you it’s not Abdul the wizard’s either).
My symptoms are:
- Toota hua dill
- Victim of being stabbed in the back
- Anxiety
- Sleeplessness
- Tiredness
- Depression
- Generally not interested in anything and everything
- Searching for any light-hearted moments/jokes
- Other than that if you haven’t sussed much from my comments then what can I say?
Diagnosis and treatment please?
Watch out, as I hope you psychiatrists are not going to get trumped by a non psychiatrist like Theo or Sweetie
if you were in an indian movie, your best friends dialogue would be: ‘tumhay pyar hogaya hai raj/rahul’
but thankfully since you are not, i would like you to confirm if it is your own head you are talking about.
Hmm you sau it is not your head which needs examining, yet you say they are your symptoms?! hehe
I think you do not need psychoanalysis as such for this.
I have a few things to do, but will give you a detailed response, albeit later.
Hope you’re all well
“if it is your own head”
No way José no, not mine…that’s why I said “I need a head examined, but it’s not mine”
A bit of a riddle isn’t it? I just threw that in to confuse you lot…Loll
Yesterday, I was not only busy at work, but Mother Nature played havoc here with 30 cm snow and it was very windy so, coming back home from work was painfully slow. Its not that cold just -7C but, it was windy and blowing snow, even ice pellets and still its snowing. It seems like I’ve missed a lot of action on the blog.
Btw, kis ko kis say pyar ho gaya? Rahul ko Bukhar ho gaya?
Aur NUN mame Saab ko kya ho gaya?
Aap kion NUN BUN gayeen?
DRC reminds of Mr. Darcey hmmmm what a character. I must have seen Pride and Prejudice at least 3 – 4 times. Thats because we have the DVD.
same here javed!!
ive seen it thrice myself ..cos i have the dvd
Why am I Mr. Darcey?!
Just to clarify…I am NOT a man lol
Miss DRC we know that
Sank You for clarifying for others.
DRC
I saw Dostana and unfortunately did not like it! Too long and crap actors.
It was funny in places though but the gay scenes were disgusting!
khansahab
the gay scenes were a very good laugh tho
The funniest gay scene I have ever seen is in my favourite movie My Cousin Vinny when Joe Pesci goes to visit his cousin and his fried in prison…it was hilarious. There was no gay scene as such but just insinuations with words.
Awas
Yes I have seen that and it was hilarious. One of a kind.
khansahab
So, you’ve seen that movie too…I didn’t know as you never mentioned it in earlier discussions…good!
I saw Dushmani and enjoyed the lesbian scenes !
Awas
I saw it recently and mentioned it on V talk as well, I think it is in response to my comment that Munir sahab said he has also seen it….and then you also spoke about it.
Awas,
It seems that all those symptoms stem from the very first symptom you mention.
Seems like they are suffering from heartbreak or have been let down by someone close to them.
I would advise the individual in question to try to occupy their time as best they can to try and divert their attention from the cause of the anxiety and depression.
Spend time with close friends and family. Start a new hobby or pursue hobbies which you may have neglected in the past. If you have a job, immerse yourself in your work. If you are a student, then immerse yourself in your studies.
I would advise against anti depressants and sleeping tablets as one can become reliant upon them. For sleeplessness try natural remedies like lavender scented oil on your pillow or a warm bath before sleeping. Another option is making oneself tired by exercising or keeping ocupied during the day.
Personally, in my opinion, I think we all experience something similar to this in our lifetime. Time is the only best healer, but in the interim we can help ourselves by picking ourselves back up and continuing with life. Life won’t stop for you.
I don’t know if this helps, I could say alot more but I will refrain for the time being.
Dushmani?
Never heard of it?
Khansahab
I told you to watch Rab ne banadi jodi.
I thought Dostana was ok. There were a few good lines but I found in places, Dostana was very cringeworthy.
Did you hear the Gabbar Singh line?
P.s. how did it go?
DRC 470
This doesn’t sound like YOU….. is it on msn or yahoo?
DRC
The exams were OK, I know I did well on the first one but the second one was harder and longer and I missed 1 or 2 points in the end cos I ran out of time. Otherwise I think I will pass it, Inshallah!
i really like the song ‘mahi’ from raaz-2
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=2SM4VGXereA
there is sumthing nice abt it
khansahab ……..Dushmani? Never heard of it?
Dostana ……. never heard of it !
The last scene when John “kisses” Abishek is so disgusting!
I heard this Raaz 2 song, don’t like it.
DRC you into Bollywood music?
I’m looking forward to Chandni Chowk to China which is releasing in about a week, I reckon it’ll be hilarious….
Javed A Khan
Didn’t think you were the Bollywood type!
Well apart from Dilip Kumar that is
Javed
I wrote all of that on my own. Can’t believe you can question it. Tut tut!
Khansahab
Awww inshallah you will be fine.
VP
Have you listened to Raghav’s new song?If not listen to that.
khansahab
Humm, I must have forgotten about your mention of that movie
I do remember Munir’s mention.
DRC
Didn’t like Raghav’s song but loved (i.e lusted for) the fit princess model in the song
awas
yes that analysis..
i think VP has described the solution in the best possible way.
however, in some case relations most important to you can be the source of the problem. in that case i would say pray.
Time is the healer. Zindagi guzar hi jaye gi..lekin kaisay guzaarni hai, thats very difficult jab dil hi toota ho.
however hard it may be, i would suggest try and indulge urself more in things you like to do and just pray everything good happens with everyone.
(if its making any sense)
I don’t mind Bollywood music. Yes, yes I like the lovey dovery stuff, unlike Khansahab here
I am a bhangra/British Asian artists and Raghav lol.
I listen to a wide range of music. Old Bollywood songs, new Bollywood, Brit-Asian stuff, Bhangra, R n B..
Yeah I want to see Chandni Chowk to China too. Will watch it after exams.
LOL khansahab didn’t you notice my “sir-kazem”? I wrote exactly opposite of Dostana and Gay. Anyways, you are right, I don’t watch too many Bollywood movies and the very few that I have seen in the past few years is at someone’s house…. forced … bakaoz…. they were watching and they made us watch.
DRC, I still don’t believe that.
DRC
“I am a bhangra/British Asian artists and Raghav lol”
That doesn’t make bundles of sense, are you trying to copy some juvenile style of English?
Were you trying to say, “I am agree?”
LOL You know I don’t mean this “criticism”
Awas,
Cheer up.Why the sad face?
Khansahab
You’re a geek so it doesn’t matter :p
That woman is really pretty though. I tend to like songs which have a good beat or good lyrics.
VP
On your Zindagi guzar hi jaye gi…….
Zindagi youn bhee guzar hee jaati
Kion tera Rah Guzar yaad aya!
Awas, sirf Pray say kaam nahee chalta, hath paon bhe maro yaro!
Dhoondnay say tou Khuda bhee mil jaata hai, aur abhi tou tum jawan ho
Abhi tou tum jawan ho
Abhi tou tum jawan ho ( in Tahira Syed ishtyle)
DRC
i have heard raghavs song, its beautiful and classical..sort of
you tell guys of a song and they start thinking about the model used in it!
i also like maula meray maula from Anwar, its very slow but it grows on you if u lisrten to it again and agian
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=AcKhEXJfMIA
Hhahahahahaha
lol
Khansahab
It has been a long day. Been reading all these cases about Greenpeace and these agencies which encourage tree hugging
I meant to add on fan at the end of that sentence.
I will never be I am agree hehehe
Maula mere maula!!
That song is so gay….
(shudders)
Khansahab
You’re such a wet lettuce
as i said khansahab is oblivious of how adrak tastes like..
DRC/VP
Wow! I am really impressed.
One of you was a bit off the line but one near enough on the dot…
Humm!!! I can do with some private consultations here…if you don’t charge an arm and a leg
OMG. Javed I so wrote that
DRC says: Khansahab
You’re such a wet lettuce ……………..?
Jisay khanay say pehlay bataor-e-appetizer khaya jata hai aur vo bhe in a vengeance. BAKAOZ….. Vengeance is a food that is to be eaten cold.
Was I off track?
OMG. Javed I so wrote that
aNO, DRC, I did not write that, I have a Fairy God Mother who writes for me.
I’m not naming names
awas
ok so i was off the line, but i left psychology ages ago
consultation will be free of charge and the patient should give his/her consent if u r speaking on their behalf!!
Javed
lol!! lettuce and vengeance!
Stop confusing me Javed
Khansahab
Here is that film I was on about which is dubbed in Punjabi.
Shanghai Knights
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UmHnxrSTIf0
It is so funny!
javed
lol! ask ur fairy god mother if she can write for me too, i dont have one u see
Awas,
How can they give private consultations if they don’t know who they are?
If it’s VP it’s fine. I don’t mind.
VP
Do you work or study?
as i said khansahab is oblivious of how adrak tastes like..
VP why are you hitting khansahab on his head with a dead trout? And, why is that we always make fun of animals in our expressions like:
Bandar kya jaanay adrak ka maza? (Actually adrak ka koi khaas maza hota tou nahee)
Gadhay ko Saffron ki kya qadar? (Khila ker dekho phir wo kya kehta hai?
Ghaas khana chor dega sirf Saffron Biryani mangay ga)
Bhains kay aagay Been bajana.…….. (jisko koi Heer Nahee milti wo Bhains kay agay hee sijday maarta hai)
Shanghai Knights
Uffff Cheeni Raatain? Its sooooooooooooooooo childish.
VP
Thats my template or my fav line when people ask me “Yae aap nay banaya?” Did you cook this?” I say it with a poker face, aNo I have a fairy godmother who cooks for me.
DRC ok lemme Unfuse you, thats your worginal comment and you did not copy it from anywhere and, you don’t have any grudge against khansahab that you see him as a wet lettuce and, you won’t eat it cold in vengeance! OK, are you happy?
The punjabi version is soo funny. Beats the original attempt by Hollywood.
Even my mum loves it. LOL
Yeah I am happy alhamdulilah Javed
P.s. Khansahab is a wet lettuce!
Now, I leave it for khansahab to reply to Darcey about the lettuce thingi.
khansahab; not only she is saying you are a vege but, a wet one and that too a spineless, bakaoz wet lettuce ka patta tou bilkull dheela murjhaya howa lagta hai, jisko ko log plate may hee chor detay, bakaoz, if it was crisp and fresh people would eat it kurum, kurum, kurum…. aur burp bhee na lain….
So, in my opinion this is a big insult on your part that she sees you like this and not only sees, but dhatai say blog per khullay aam kehti hai aur ek bar nahee 2 baar! So, all I can say is Hawwww Haiiiiiiiiiii
javed
so funny! fairy god mother zindabaad!
“you are a wet blanket”
DRC nay apnay bawarchi-khana mei iss phrase ka tau tia-panch maar dia
khana pakanay par ya likhnay par?
I dunno why she always gets that credit?
LOL at tiya pancha kerna……… but Awas, bavarchi khanay say bedroom may aap lay aye, blanket say ab Pamper per na ajana…….. khansahab ki kuch ParamPara aur Steethee bhee rekhna.
Javed A Khan
I think this is DRC’s idea of revenge for me suggesting that she is potentially an “I am agree” person
DRC
I will watch that Shanghai Knights and will also post some Punjaagi Totay links, OMG they are so hilarious.
likhnay par…not tasted what she cooks
Awwwww Khansahab…
You know I am joking
khansahab
Tusi Punjabi Totay waikhday O? Garr walon noo pata chalay ga tou bist ho jai gee!
Nargas (Nargis) day totay waikhay O tusi? A Punjabi friend of mine has a collection of DOD’s (DVD’s) and sometimes during the cricket break (lunch time) he entertains us with those Punjabi sitcoms and dances. Some of them are hilarious and a few are vulgar but, its a part and parcel of Tehzeeb.
DRC
So was I….
P.s. yes yes I am such an ‘i am agree’ person LOL. Can’t you tell. I hide it so well hahaha
khansahab
Don’t ever say Totay again. Ammi say thapper milay ga.
Javed A Khan
These dances and mujras are abominable. There is no decency, no finesse, no class and no sophistication in “moseeqi” and “shayari”.
And the women who do it are fat and ugly.
khansahab aNO, they are not fat and ugly. The ones I have seen are fine. The jokes are vulgar i.e., if only you can understand them otherwise “sir kay ooper say guzar jaingay”.
Those mujra thingies look like khussray lol.
Awas you should watch Shanghai Knights, the punjabi version too.
Vp
That is well cool. You must be clever
Wow, VP your parents must be really VP= Very Proud of you.
So you are a biological “sane-tist.”
The only biological thing that I know is the bio-yogurt that I eat.
The only biological thing I know is human reproduction
And male and female anatomy
Vp …That is well cool. You must be clever (Darcey)
LOL@ clever.
lol @ khansahab
thanks DRC and Javed
Why Javed are you trying to imply VP is not clever?!tut tut
Khansahab
And then you wonder why I call you a geek with comments like THAT?
khansahab in your case…….
Hunooz Dilli Dooor ast
Pehlay exam pass kero, phir naokari dhoondo
Phir Chakri ka socho
Phir Chokri ko dekho
abi tum reproduction ka khowab dekhna mangta hai tou sirf XEROX photo copy ko God of Reproduction mano aur 2 – 4 poto kapy nikalo …. doosra kam tum kuch nai ker sakta.
Darcey my English is very ghareeb, but whatever little that I know, I don’t think the word ‘clever’ is considered as a compliment anymore, its like telling someone tum bari Chalaak ho. A sly fox is clever. But, there are better adjectives to give compliments such as, you must be really very intelligent, or talented, or a genius aiksutra, aiksutra.
No “Offsense” against you DRC.
Guys and Gals of Vilayat
It must be close to 1:00 a.m. your time and for me its about 8:00 p.m. and dinner time. So me goes amigos, bata & bai bai.
enjoy your dinner! bye
DRC
what do you do?
Javed A Khan
Saying your English is ghareeb is like me saying my Punjabi is “ameer”
Ok VP is intelligent not clever
VP
I am a free spirit..
Ok..nothing exciting, I am a student!
Knock knock…why such dead silence here???
Vanilla Pod (VIP)
I just remembered, as I had meant to mention it, when you wrote:
“khansahab is oblivious of how adrak tastes like..”
When I first quickly read it, I thought you said Aardvark. I wondered why khansahab would eat an Aardvark unless he is a Chinese who eat anything that moves. Sorry! my Urdu is not very Ameer when written in the english (as Abdul will have it) Loll.
in that case Awas, lets thank god khansahab is not in China..
VP not only khansahab but most of us won’t be able to eat anything there. I was in China and at official banquets where they served 26 course menu, twice I ended up eating only peanuts as starters and in the end vanilla ice cream. Everything else was so yucky, smiley and smelly that I had to pass. Things like Sea Cucumber, do you know what it is? Google it and see. Its ugly like a Karela and its jelly like wobbling and they eat it in one shot Slurrrrrpppppp. Getting normal water or bottled water was a big problem. They were serving Sake or rice wine and Perrier water and I asked for a glass of plain water, it took them 20 minutes and after 4 different waiters asked me what I want they brought me a mug of warm water.
Beijing cuisine is very bland and boring. The Cantonese and Szechuan cuisine is similar to what we eat. The best Chinese restaurants are in Karachi on Tariq Road, Tung Nan and Nan King.
Vanilla Pod (VIP)
Do we really know for sure khansahab is not living in China?
Na Khansahab lives in a eskimo hut, somewhere in the South Pole.
They get good internet connections from there these days
DRC
Have you been hibernating too?
Awas
I have essays to finish and and exam in a couple of weeks
I need to start hibernating more
Awas
khansahabs body maybe anywhere but his heart is in Lahore..around food street
Javed
oh poor you, that must have been very agonizing! next time you can take fairy god mother for her culinary skills.
DRC
maybe khansahab is on the south pole…his excessive computer usage could be melting away the ice and rising our sea level
is anyone here fuzon fan?
Vanilla Pod (VIP)
I’m afraid you are wrong here…khansahab in Lahore yes, but not in food street…its in the Gaddafi Stadium and that’s not looking at cricket…just searching for pretty faces in the crowds
DRC
“essays to finish”? Forget about that when we are on LS.
What’s a “fuzon fan”?
nice song this one…
from a Pakistani pop band called Fuzon. songs called neend na aaye (you lot may hav to listen to it twice to start liking it)
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=npkPqWRFZpQ
you will know wen u click on the link and turn on the speakers
this band does lovely guitar work
Awas
Do you want me to not graduate this year or something
?
I’m starting to get butterflies in my stomach due to nervousness and I never get like this ever.
why are my comments not going on the page wen i write them? why are they needing moderation?
who is sitting in the control box? slowing us down
(tearful)
Vanilla Pod (VIP)
Life and death here is in khansahab’s hands. He presses all the buttons. We just follow his orders
I listened to the song…but I’m afraid hes no Pavarotti… enjoyed the guitar though but doesn’t go with that desi voice. He is making me sleep with his Neend thing. I know, I know I’m a very bad critc
DRC
Sorry! I was just kidding! Don’t loose heart!
awas
oh really? u didnt like it….ok…i was gnna paste another link but i guess i’ll pass..
in any case if u still want to listen to it its called aankhon ke sagar
(desi voice and guitar is a fusion..hence fuzon is the band name)

I forgot to mention when you said “fuzon fan” I though some kinda fan that blows some frozen air…who needs it in this weather?
Sorry, I am not good company today. Better go do some work now.

I press all the buttons? Yet YOU also have that “Don” picture as your avatar, Don Corleone!
Vanilla Pod (VIP)
I said the guitar was nice…
Humm…in the second one more emphasis on guitar again…nice!
Okay, forget Pavarotti, hes no Ghulam Ali either
the lead singer in this song is shafqat ali khan, son of amanat ali khan and brother of asad amanat ali khan
awas
ok lets listen to what Pavarotti stuff u listen to (pls dont say it is Pavarotti u like)
khansahab
But who is the Maha Don?…the whole world can tell from the pictures you know….kiowoon VP?
VIP
No, not just Pavarotti, have you heard of Piaf? I’ll send you some CD’s
VIP
amanat ali khan and asad amanat ali khan
Now you are talking…they are classic…quite wonderful.
I honestly didn’t know this Frozen guy. No wonder he changed his name his voice is nothing like his folks!
Saw Training Day today, good movie.
Awas
i havnt heard of Piaf…sorry
yeh the ustads were good. shafqat is also trained in classical singing but i think this is where the fame is. the older people like his singing and youngsters like his songs for the music.
i was watching Ratatouille (animation) today. it was very good! i wonder if anyone else has watched it.
its time to hit the bed!
Good nite and sweet dreams

Édith Piaf (19 December 1915 — 10 October 1963) was a French singer and cultural icon of partly Algerian and Italian descent who is almost universally regarded as France’s greatest popular singer. Legend has it that she was born on the pavement of Rue de Belleville
Oh, Gosh…its nearly 2pm. Good night!
VP
Thanks for the suggestion of taking Fairy God Mother avec moi but, that was once in a life time experience and it is enough. Besides, it was official and two weeks in China was a long journey where you are lost in the ocean of people. I don’t really enjoy myself in BIG cities like Beijing, Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata etc., I hate traffic jams and one of the reasons I avoid Toronto and NY where you are stuck in your car for 2 hours!

You can come to manchester then (the one in UK) parce que there is no such traffic problem here!!
Merci Beaucoup VP for the invitation, one day I have to meet khanshab too, so I would say Inshallah.
