Sorry for late response.

If you came to Karachi, you should have contacted me. Maybe we could have had a get togather of the local Chowkies. And then discussed all our eating habits in detail.

I agree. Feeding is important but not all too important. I enjoy discussions more. (but my wife is too feeding conscious. Actually she enjoys food and when visiting others, expects to be fed very well)

Amit,

A big correction in your post. Laxman is not a madrasi. He is a Gult and a Hyderabadi. Period.

Sirjee

You are honest. But.. But. Jay is more than honest. I think he shows his honest hatred. And rightfully

Three questions.

1. I ate with a family in Karachi. Do you eat together always that way? Not my style. I mean we sit together and eat but there is some.....
2. Why do you think feeding and feeding is only way host should satisfy a guest?
3. We do have differences. Why hide? Why not bring it open? At least it could be a good start.

I really enjoyed your style of hospitability. But you need to learn (from an idiot like me??). Gujjus are better. They know when to stop. Gracefully. Without putting the guest in a very awkward situation. You know (just fooling) we the orrible can`t eat anything without ing!!!.

Gosh. Karachi is just like Mumbai. Dirty. Overcrowded. But. But. Full of life. So much full of life.

Would have liked to meet that idiot YHL.

On the subject finally .. it was a good match though.

I was surprised to observe that the north-american audience was not as enthisiastic towards this series as the world-cup. This series was pretty much ignored by the women (this got to be lack of looks-talent in the Pakistani team). The world-cup saw enthusiastic parties with kids statiung up etc. Similarly, in India, during the world cup, many restaurants were sporting waiters/waitresses with blue teashirts. I wonder how things compared for this series relative to the recent world-cup in India. In Pakistan this series must have had more hoopla.

My final comment which was also my first.
The heads played bigger than the game.

Let us get back to cricket. There are other boards for political discussions.

In the end, the India team played very well on the day and won. Congratulations. There are no excuses on this score.

Everyone enjoyed the series. Personally, I am a little surprised and happy the way Pakistanis took this defeat - in the most matter-of-fact manner. Unlike the last 20-30 years where they used to go into a despair or frustration in an emotional manner.

Maybe, finally, some maturity is coming.

Yogiraj #189,

What makes you so sure that Indians will not extend the same hospitality that Pakistanis did? Didn`t you hear Imran talk about how overwhelmed he was by the welcome shown by the crowds in India?

Bad news

It is not politics or military. It is mullas who ruled you, do and will. Go to Mecca and/or Madina and say this... I want my wife to have driver`s licen...

NHK. you may not want to hide this fact. But Romair and FV do know this and hide. And so does 123....And they will run away (or else Urs will... kick their..)

It is URS who rules. Accept it as a fact.

If Urs wants to kill non muslims... He will do it with pride. And he rules all over you with a book in his hand.

Some never liked Jay because he showed mirror ...every day. That Muslims in Pakistan have a problem...

You seem to be very decent person. But there is no where to hide.

FV will write on how Indoos are bad bad bad. Romair will run from USA to ...Canada, but never Saudi (because) Driver`s licen.. for a woman in Mecca or Medina... Can they? will your scriptures allow? 123? And for god`s sake if they will... will Urs allow it?

I hope you understand why BJP is there. It is because of asteen ki rudalee we rear. She blames us for all wrongs... and we pay her. More she wails, more we pay. More power to her. That is the going rate for rudalees.

Let her go and say how a woman enjoyed driving in Mecca all alone.. (I mean a muslim woman.. whatever the definition is). I bet Rudalee will duck like a ...And then host of commi indoos will defend her ``rights`` in Indoostan.

Well.. every one knows. Only Jay says it. May be Sameer or whatever the name is..

On a brighter side....

Much, much more important. Lots of Indoos know pakistan is not the snake`s teeth filled with poison. I was simply amazed by the decency, hospitability and love pakistan showed. I do not think Indoos won. (Not even cricket). I think the common woman/man on street in Pakistan won. Hands down. What a awesome hospitabilty.. gosh.. I promise you, you will never get same splendid treatment in India. Simply not possible. Do not even dream about it.

It wont last long any way. Give Urs a day and all the ( he / she) dogs will let their tails... May be timetable is wrong. Give Urs a month.

Must admit, as of now you have won so far.

(It`s logical to the extent that if you really really must have Kashmir and you are the country trying to change the status quo, you won`t do anything that you think would maintain it....)

Let the politicians fight & go crazy. Who cares. A common man is fed up of being dictated by them. When they want, they make nice on-the-house trips to other country. Only a common man can not. It is not fair. With a soft border concept, Kashmir will lose its sting as a problem. Incidently, there are a number of solutions which are a win-win for everyone.

nazar...tourism in india is very hot right now. middle-class folks are taking 2 vacations a year and willing to pay approx Indian Rs 1000 ppdo. If tours in pakistan can compete for these rates..surely this can easily be done. Heavy demand exists. Here is an example of a tour operator almost exclusively catering to middle-class.

Everything went according to plan. Pak won the toss and, just to be sure they`d lose, chose to field and chase a big score. For a while it seemed as thogh Moin Khan & Shoaib Malik had either not seen the script or were getting carried away playing a normal game. Fortunately, the game concluded as it had been meant to.
Does anyone want to take a guess on who`s supposed to win the test matches?
