K: Well, someone has to look around once in a while...it was dark and late at the beach, y`know...you had your eyes shut the whole time so I...

I didn`t know there was a beach in Dallas !!!. In part I, K mentions that he is 100 miles from Rubina who is in Dallas. You also mentioned that Ruby takes Kamran to her apartment whichsjould be in Dallas!!!. Mr. Author, ``Mirch Masala`` is OK but it tells me a lot about you.

As R says :

``There are days when I feel so American, so assimilated...I feel I can almost marry a white man.``



and I say, ``Yeah but would a white man marry you`` Drums and tadadtishhh!!! (Audience break into a fit of laughter)

On the serious side, why do # * * * * *-up Pakis think that America is all about white people, they always say of marrying a ``white man`` or a ``White girl``, why, are the Hispanic and Black, or Asian, in other words the non whites, any less American than whites? Why are we so racist? I can`t help it if you people only see ``Tyrone`` or ``Pablo`` or

``Yang`` as the stereotypical ``Non - whites``, believe me there are lots who are better. Personally I am a very rasict person, I don`t like white people, actually I hate them. Another thing I find strange about #$$$$##-up ABCD`s is that they make fun of blacks, Asian and Hispanic. So do the whites, but they do so cuz they think they are superior, and what do these ABCD`s do, they look upto white people, and think of them as more superior than any other race, even theirs. Peace and chill!

This guy is, like, a teen-ager playing it out with an older woman or what?

I ignored the first part of this stupidity hoping that it would die quietly, but NO! So I have to say this: Can someone, anyone, stop this peurile, self-indulgent and downright irritating second-by-second diary of the self-absorbed, the shallow and the uninteresting? If I want a corny soap opera, I have plenty of T.V channels to choose from, I don`t need to come to Chowk to read this trash!

I wish the narrator had kept his thoughts to himself, at least then one could give him the benefit of the doubt. They took away whatever this reader was willing to grant. And worse, they weren`t even unintentionally humorous. But as they say he had to do it ...

Talking of Rumi and Ghalib: As if the downright inanity of the lives of these two characters wasn`t enough, Mr. K just had to talk about something he knows nothing about. Is nothing sacred anymore?? My advice, let these gentlemen be with those who can appreciate them, and Mr. K should just concentrate on flirting with twenty-something year olds with the minds of fourteen year olds.
