The World According to Heer & Ranjha

Re: Irfan Butt

If your wife asks you whether she is fat: Tell her the truth.

Maybe that is what Ranjha needed to do in the Moe`s story. Heer would have trusted him.

RE: A Friend ``... Dear Moe! How Could You Do a thing like This ..?

Dear Friend, if Elvis was alive and here today he would beatle it out this way ......

Yesterday,
All those fairy tales seemed a waste of hay.
Now your trust has gone away.
Oh I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly,
There`s not half the truth there used to be,
And there`s a milestone
hanging over me
The ``disclaimer`` crashed so suddenly.
I claimed something wrong
What it was I could not say.
Now all your trust is gone
and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay.
Yesterday,
The need for truth seemed so far away.
I knew my trust was all here to stay,
Now I believe in yesterday.

This politically correct fictional fairly tale of Heer & Ranja, especially souped-up for the Chowkwalas, is a spoof on the original fictional fairy tale of Little Red Riding Hood, which was further spruced-up in the fictional fairy tales, ``Politically Correct Bedtime Stories`` by James Garner. Any resemblance of Heer & Ranja PC-saga to the original and fictional LRRH saga and/or James Garner`s spruced-up PC version of LRRH saga is honestly incidental and is meant to be intentional.

O! O! Moe!

Afrasiab Doabra:( I hope you have`nt lied about Moe..if you have:-
``Liar Liar Pants On fire``

Hey! I have read this before. The politically correct story of ``Red Riding Hood`` has been circling the internet since last year. You even copied a colloquy ditto- plagiarizer!

Re: Night before Christmas

Thanks for another ballad on the scourge -er- scrooge of Pakistan. (Please don`t reply to this message in verse - 14 stanzas on ``How Balladiers Should Receive Compliments``? - I feel like I am in a metaphysical broadway musical).

Re: Ather. Not sure where you got the idea, but I am not a fan of Imran. Being better than a typical Pakistani Politician is not grounds for hero-worshipping.

RE: Osama ``...Up there with your Ode to our President delivered to the tune of The Beverly Hillbillies ...``

Hi Osama, here is sequel to THAT one ...

Bah Humbug Nevaz Sherif

T`was the night before last - Old Tarar was ticked
He cussed out the servants and threw down his fist ...
Miserable little brats, ungrateful little jerks
I have good mind to scrap the whole works

I`ve busted my ass for damn over a month
Instead of ``Thanks Tarar`` - what do I hear
The old lady hitches `cause I work late at night
Nevaz n` Kalsoom want more money - ministers all fight

Asef took the oath and goosed all the mango crates
He thinks BB is pregnant and Leghari is great
And just when I thought that things would get better
Those idiots from Ehtesab sent me a letter

They say I owe taxes - if that ain`t damn funny
Who the hell ever sent Tarar any money
And the kids these days - they all are the pits
They want the impossible ...Those mean little crits

I spent a whole month issuing fatwas and such
Assembling amendments ... arms, legs and heads
I made a ton of progress - no request for them
They want money and mo`e money ...they think I`m a bottomless bank!

If you think that`s bad...just picture this
Try kissing those babies for presidential politics
They pull on my nose - they grab at my beard
And if I don`t smile..the parents think I`m weird
Leaping like a superman ... dodging the tall trees
Faster than a bullet yet I fall down skinning my knees

I`m quitting this job...there`s just no enjoyment
I`ll sit on my fat rump and draw retirement
This job ain`t no fun despite promises of Nevaz
Me and Kalsoom are heading SOUTH for Kalabagh!

Re: Osama`s comments.

I am intrigued to find out you are a fan of Imran Khan`s. Perhaps you could have done something for him a little earlier(like make him win a humble election that so many, arguably not of Mr. Khan`s caliber, have so often won.) But so is the human condition...

I am also confident that you are not at loss by not having read my (unpublished) article. Would not have suited a man (oops ! a person) of your verbal sophistication. You know how to split hair (cannot think of a politically correct version of this.)

Hi Moe,

This was excellent. Up there with your Ode to our President delivered to the tune of The Beverly Hillbillies.

Re: Athar Mian/Chowk`s ``prejudicial attitude``: Not sure why you are knocking a moderated forum for being a moderated forum(btw merely disagreeing with censorship and accusing someone of being prejudiced are entirely different beasts - the latter should not be tossed out as carelessly as your comments on Imran`s article). But I confess I am shattered not to get an opportunity to read of a ``passionate Yale-Columbian affair``. Written by you. In two parts.

The POINT, my dear Critic, is humour and satire... You know, when one smiles, or better, laughs !!! :)

This is beautiful !

Finally, I read something refreshing on Chowk. Now why can`t we all stop blabbering about how victimized we are, and start taking a bite out of life.

Viva Moe !
Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite (+ sororite.)
A la femme blanche.

PS I wish I could contribute to Chowk my 2 episodes of ``Laura`s Seduction``, a true story of a passionate Yalee-Columbian affair, but Chowk`s prejudicial attitude of selective censoring earlier has made me think otherwise.

And......
The Point Is......!!!!????
