Why Have This Train At All?

Chowk staff,

Please restore my Interact Index.

It is Never OK to Hit a Woman
Posted by bjkumar Feb 22, 2007 08:38 pm

So, therefore (now that we have crossed 400 interacts).

Is it, or is it not okay to hit a woman?!!

I suppose, another question to ask is...

Is it, or is it not okay to hit another human being?

Or it could be considered trhe same question.

Or not...depending on whether one thinks of a woman as a human being.

Or not.

;)

Good thoughts! The style of presentation could use a lot of improvement.
Imposter Syndrome and Emotional Concavity
Posted by bjkumar Feb 22, 2007 08:33 pm

The following is from a famous book by Dr. Laura.

Ten Stupid Things Women do to Mess Up Their Lives:

1) Stupid attachment

2) Stupid courtship

3) Stupid devotion

4) Stupid passion

5) Stupid cohabitation

6) Stupid expectations

7) Stupid conception

8) Stupid subjugation

9) Stupid helplessness

10) Stupid forgiving.

There! I never thought I could get it all out at one time. :)

Looks like you are starting to write your autobiography.

A bit early, perhaps?!

A Nation without an Identity

Author, the facts are simple. Without religious polarization, there would be NO Kashmir ``struggle`` - and the whole region would have lived on in peace and harmony!

Come to think of it, without religious polarization, there would have been no Pakistan. And the whole region would....

You got it!

Good Lord, you are still around?!! I thought you would be busy minting money. If not, please go do it.

I kind of like the idea of calling you - ``the minting Manto!`` Cute, ain`t it?!!

India, Pakistan and the Kashmir dispute
Posted by bjkumar Feb 22, 2007 08:15 pm

Author,

[What was ignored was the later statement by the Pakistani Foreign office that there “is no change in Pakistan’s policy on Kashmir” and that the “headlines in the media were misleading.” ]

Since there was NO CHANGE, what was there to ignore?

Speculation on the Life Hereafter
Posted by bjkumar Feb 22, 2007 07:58 pm

Doc, isn`t THIS life complicated enough - that one has to go speculating after the afterlife?!!

Oh well, different strokes for different folks!!

Good one, yaar!

Do you talk from experience - or are you just taking a flight of fancy?!!


Get over the Victim Syndrome
Posted by bjkumar Feb 22, 2007 07:38 pm

[Get over the Victim Syndrome]

...and miss out on all the fun?!!

The firebrand mullahs?

The foaming-at-the-mouth politico?

The killer jihadis?

And last but not the least...

The crushing-with-the-boot Khaki?!!

Get over the victim syndrome - why? It is a LOT more fun the way things are!

Know Pakistan
Posted by bjkumar Feb 22, 2007 07:34 pm

[Know Pakistan]

Perhaps not such a good idea, at least as far as I can tell - based on my experience of the past two years.

Perhaps the correct way to phrase it should be:

``Know Pakistan - but not through the Pakistanis on THIS web site!``

My People!
Posted by bjkumar Feb 22, 2007 07:31 pm

[I am outraged because I care and I care because it’s my country and I care because it’s my people.]

Ask not whether you care about your country but ask if your country cares for you!
