this time the victim is the great French war hero, Charles De Gaulle :(

The more I get to know people, the more I appreciate my dog!
(Actually, I made it up. But it is highly accurate.)]

no Beej bhosRi kay, you DID NOT make it up. It was already made up by Charles De Gaulle. You merely plagiarized it and tried to pass it as your own

here is charles de gaulle's quote:
[The better I get to know men, the more I find myself loving dogs.
- Charles de Gaulle]

The Dust and the Shadows dlr [Parts of it reminded me the famous style of Mohan Rakesh (particularly, his short stories like Mandi),]


no shit! and parts of it reminded me of some other famous writers. basically, thats the big advantage in reading a plagiarist's "writings" - you have a fun time guessing which writers original work have been targeted by the plagiarist

A Guantanamo Diary BJ Kumar reading someone else's book/article and then proceeding to write an article on it. Now where have I seen this before? Oh yeah, it was his "inspiration" from Farzana Versey's intellectual capital that brought charges of plagiarism and subsequent removal of that article more than a year ago. I guess there is a second act in life.

Now BJ Kumar has reinvented himself. Since he cannot keep himself from getting "inspired" by other people's intellectual capital, he has taken on to being a "book critic". Shoots THREE birds with one stone - one, it fulfills BJ Kumar's craving for getting "inspired", two, he can do so without getting charges of plagiarism thrown at him and three, he can continue to claim to be a "published author" on chowk.

Very clever. Now can someone please verify whether BJ Kumar's "critique" of this book has been inspired by some other already published "critique" by a genuine book critic?

Dreamland Dubai ranjit # 69 [how do the sheikhs enforce security in Dubai?]

yeah, thats one thing that could be a game changer in dubai. dont know if its good enforcement or pure luck, but nothing has happened so far. some people think its only a matter of time before this fuk fest is over and its the bombs, instead of the condoms, that start popping

What is it going to take to have a Clean Bombay? Extreme situations call for extreme measures. And so I propose a rather radical, but ultimately effective approach, to solving filth problems in Mumbai:

1- Forced sterilization of all males above the age of 18. A lower population means fewer people defecating along railroad tracks

2- An aerial spray of DDT across the length and breadth of Mumbai

3– Proper burial of aborted female fetuses. This will significantly reduce clogging of the sewage system.

4- Burning of cinemas which show movies that promote a false rosy view of India and its cities. Its a view that shows Swedish looking indian actresses frolicking around in parks. No, in reality you cant step in what passes for a park in India without stepping on someone’s excrement.

5- A moratorium on bride burning for environmental reasons. A bride is burned every 77 minutes in India resulting in poor air quality. The smoke that rises from mumbai houses in the morning is not that of breakfast being prepared, its because an indian bride is most likely to burn between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m.

6- Targeted assassination of Lalu Parsad. I know this has nothing to do with Mumbai`s filth problems. But I have this bad habit of slipping in my personal agenda in all proposals.

A toast to a healthy and hygienic Mumbai!

Reforms! What Reforms? che #109 ``Now tell me which picture would your average teenager in Lahore, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, Peshawar Kohat or Charsadda be found jerking off to?``

Che, dont bring teenages into discussion. You know as well as I do that a teenage boy can perk up just by the wind the blows.

Recently an average singer in pakistan, abrar-ul-haq, got married to a girl who is neither an actress or a model. She will most likely be a housewife for the rest of her life. Now lets compare that housewife with the super model of India.

super model of India


a housewife in pakistan


I dont know about you, but if this is what the BEST picture of ashwarya looks like, I really dont have an appetite to see her in person.

If I were to choose between the two, I would rather go for Abrar`s wife than a single and available Ashwarya.
