re: scout

{{so you swing both ways? interesting...}}

most women on the subways check out guys...i was just recognizing that fact...i know you swing the other way, but that`s your business...

{{you know the rule about NY though, the hotter looking the guy, the more likely he`s gay. i`ve stopped looking.}}

...yeah, and the other rule, which says the better looking the girl, the more likely she`s already taken...the rest live in northern europe...

Suxena #24, ``...or, if you take the number 6 new york subway, to look at hot girls (or guys, as the

case may be)...``

so you swing both ways? interesting...

you know the rule about NY though, the hotter looking the guy, the more likely he`s gay. i`ve stopped looking.

Ali:

Why do you pile insult upon insult?You just cannot do that to that which is already supersaturated & now chelating it.

When was the last time you personally encountered a proud hindu.Sad but very true that whenever an opportunity arises they pull over this yard-long ghoongat of being a `Veggie`---no,no,nothing to do with the monologues.Just as you cannot gilt the lily similarly you just cannot goo-fy the gobar.

Who else but they try to re charge the flaccid pride by invoking ``Gurv sey kaho---``.It is these damn secularists & liberals straddling the no-mans land & twilight zone of belief/disbelief, twiddling their thumbs ``converts me/converts-me-not`` who are kind of embarrassed to salaam/do dandot to mommy.

Reply ali1:

``Pakistanis are not exactly dissatisfied with these wars. We liberated 1/3 of Kashmir (and some more to hand over to China), sucessfully defended Lahore and Sialkot against a full blown Indian

attack, lost East Pakistan which we deserved to loose etc. etc.``

Ali-mian, aapse gaali khaane ke baad post karne ka dil toh nahin kar raha lekin needs must, therefore....

Yeh fizool ki posturing chod do ali-bhai. Rationalisation is a perfect science. Defeat mein victory dhoondnaa koi badee baat nahin hai, asli test is when victory mein questions pooche jaaye.

``Bhai sahab, please don`t insult the kutta bhagwan, lest he sends the rat bhagwan to chew your lingum bhagwan. he is considered to be the most vindictive bhagwan of all, even more than the elephant bhagwan and the monkey bhagwan.``

Arre why this mindless attack on something you don`t understand? Hume bhi bahut kuchh nahin samajhme aata hai aapke aur doosre religions mein. Ignorance mein attack karna bahut exhilarating hai naa? Waise, elephant-bhagwan aur monkey-bhagwan yahaan pe pretty popular hai, so please, in Mushy`s own words....``lay off``.

Regards,

SM

LOL...this is funny...let`s cool it, guys. We now not only fight, but also fight over who won.

Let`s just all prepare for our coming (or ongoing - it`s all very confusing) thousand year war! At least, that way we will have something to do in our lives.

:)

Ali,

Stop arguing with these `drunk with imagined power` fanatics. If those were India`s victories... I shudder to think what defeat must look like.

[1947 1965 1971 Kargil]

Pakistanis are not exactly dissatisfied with these wars. We liberated 1/3 of Kashmir (and some more to hand over to China), sucessfully defended Lahore and Sialkot against a full blown Indian attack, lost East Pakistan which we deserved to loose etc. etc.

And mind you, the ``wars`` didn`t start in `47 and haven`t ended yet.

[Kutte ki dum seedhee nahi hoti.]

Bhai sahab, please don`t insult the kutta bhagwan, lest he sends the rat bhagwan to chew your lingum bhagwan. he is considered to be the most vindictive bhagwan of all, even more than the elephant bhagwan and the monkey bhagwan.

.... here is bob dylan`s cure for the blues :

Well, lookit here buddy

You want to be like me

Pull out your six-shooter

And rob every bank you can see

Tell the judge I said it was all right

Yes!

......... hope that helped

Reply #: 9 Ras Siddiqui

[``Hello Northern California CHOWK readers! How about journeying to Sacramento this weekend? Peace Rally in Sacramento on January 25``]

Hello Ras Siddiqui, how about relaxing a bit. There will be NO war. India will dare not attack Pakistan.

Pakistanis with Jello filled knees, begging for peace in Bumfuk Idaho and Sacramento California give a very distorted picture of our country.... whose peaceful and resolute people are always ready to remind the banya of his real place in the scheme of things; if he dares to forget. He won`t though, don`t worry.

Pista, badaam, kaju and chilgoza are supposed to cure the knees.

Have a great weekend.
