247:
....and oh, don`t forget that you can see communal baths at Mahenjo daro, along with efficient sewerage system. Our ancestors lost their way somewhere along the line.

hamidm:

If bath is the first step towards civilisation, our ancestors took that step a long time ago. A bath for hindus first thing in the morning was/is obligatory for practising sikhs and hindus before doing their ritual pooja/paath. Temples in India had a pool so people would take a dip (kind of wazoo, if you will) before their pooja; you have probably seen in pictures the large pool outside the Golden Temple.

The trouble with rituals, however, is that people forget the reasons why they were introduced in the first place; so they continue taking their dips in holy waters even when they all full of unholy shit.

Re: # 244

Best of Civilization

As we know - this dude hardly used bath and moutwash - yet he is the best that any civilization ever produced... Looks can be deceiving.... :)

Re: # 241

mohar,

.........come on, try and be a little objective .......... we all know that the first step on the road to civilization starts with a bath and then, after hundreds of years, people discover deodrant and mouthwash .......... i think the muslims might have a slight edge in this regard even though most desi muslims (particularly biharis) are not a whole lot better than their unwashed and uncircumcised cousins ..........

hamidm: I thought you liked white-skins and didnt like dark skins. Look at the pains this guru guy went through to make himself white-skinned for you!! :-)

ijaz_gul: ``Just for record and no disrepectn she moved on the perifery of the desert, which is also commendable. She did not go into the heart. ``

While you may not have meant any disrespect, the fact is that this belittling the accomplishments of this remarkable woman is mean-spirited and unfair. Mean spirited because it ignores the fact that it ignores the broader spirit of adventure that moved her, and splits hairs. While I commend your own trekking in Pakistan, I know of a number of other individuals who have done similar explorations in Pakistan.

This does not mean that your explorations within Pakistan are not interesting. I would really like to learn more. E.g., What path does one take to get to these sites you mentioned? I assume things are back to normal in Dhera Bugti now, so it is OK to go off the beaten path - most trekking is done in the northern areas, and this is the first time I have heard of someone roaming around the baluch countryside. Any light you can shed on these questions would be appreciated.

Just saw a report you pakis have started importing cancer drugs from india... when hamidm would be down from prostrate cancer in Khan`s Cancer Hospital in Karachi, what do you think is going to save him?.... yep, it would be heeng-laced cancer drugs from India...

Hard as you may try, you can`t run away from heeng... heeng is the future and future is here... :)

See pakis - brits have been taunting you guys for decades with racial slurs, nobody cared.... but they tried that stunt once on an indian like Shilpa and all he!ll broke loose... Even the Brit Prime Minister stepped in to apologize...

That, my dear pakis, is the power of heeng... Just ask George Allen.... :)

Sorry guyz for the distraction, dont read this if u like Chowk administrators:

If u like these Chowk Administrators, pl dont read this.


We are fed up with these niggers.

For those who dont know: Two posts were made on boards
1. Wife beating 2. Pakistan`s Democracy. None of the msgs was abusive.

That means no violation of any guidelines. The words didnt contain any abusive words which we normally see them here and the posters were normally overlooked.



Sample: By HP 232 on India`s Foreign Policy board:

``Abey bhootni kay apni maan kay khusam say gaand mara.``


We sent several emails b4 this to Chowk Eunuchs. Now we sent another on the same subject. It may look silly but it looks like that Chowk Chutiyas are deaf-cum-blind or rank Eunuchs.






Quote:

I dont know if it`s a person or a group of persons:

We had been asking for termination of our IDs for good but u guyz never responded to the emails.

We want our IDs both VRV and Folio to be terminated for good.

Emails were sent and u were sitting on them.

Shameless chituya(s).

Mard hai to terminate kar, yah if u dont then confirm that u are eunuch(s)!

Mard(s) or Eunuch(s)??????????????

Unquote

Chowk Administartor(s) Chutiy(s).

P.S: This is no way meant for the guys who founed this site and I feel that founders and administartors are not the same.

Zeemax,
Just for record and no disrepectn she moved on the perifery of the desert, which is also commendable. She did not go into the heart.

This is one of my ilogs I am pasting with due respects to tanishaq.

Raheela

Its a sad day as I learn that rescuers in Islamabad were not able to retrieve the body of Raheela Gul, Pakistan`s only woman who had trekked the poles and the entire Thar, Nara and Choolistan deserts in one go. We met briefly North of Khipro in the bitter lakes of Nara desert in March this year. She was one woman amongst a team of Geo TV and local guides. We shared the same passion for mountains and deserts and were dreamers in the same stride. Today she is no more but hope tells me that being a fighter and survivor, she may yet be found alive fighting the rubble of Margalla Towers.

Raheela we are proud of you and remember you.

Could someone guide me how to upload her pic on unplugged, or could do it from her web site

www.raheela.com

..aaaahhhhhh!....the articulate eloquence and unbridled poetic maturity of speech on this site:....the civilized behavior, below, should be enough to prove why one cannot consider south asia to be a civilization....

``Ref HackedPenis.....Abey bhootni kay apni maan kay khusam say gaand mara. I don’t give a fk abt what you had in that godforsaken place Bihar or Vihara. Once a dump always a dump…. .....``
