One More

I've been too busy reading other people's blogs to write anything on my own. So here's a quick power post with some thoughts and brief comments.

Questions that come to mind:

Why wont they have background music in public bathrooms?
- It would you from the background music that you currently get to hear, and people wouldnt sit in the stall and wait for everyone to leave before getting down to business

What if cricket / sport commentators could use explicit language while commentating?
- Balaji to Afridi..Holy f**k that went miles, balajis getting b*tch-slapped today!

Why do sequels always suck?
- Except Godfather II

Is Ali G /Sacha Baron Cohen/ Borat really brilliant?
- I dunno, I'm inclined to think that he's not. He's got a novel approach to highlighting diversity, but i still feel that its quite distant from 'brilliance'

Are we just optimistic, or is Pakistan still in a never ending cycle of military leaders and idiots?
- I was depressed when I read the economist special report on Pakistan.
- I was all upbeat when I read Mushy's book
- I was depressed when I read Owen Bennet Jones's version of the same picture, where he says..in short..Mushy is just another Ayub Khan...and that we'll all agree with him in 10-15 years
- In short..theres good, bad and ugly happening in Pakistan at the moment. Lets hope it turns out for the best.

Also,

- Pakistaniat
Is a really great blog that has tons of stuff on Pakistan and comments from many people.


I know that there are many concerns/issues with all my above postings, but it never hurts to think.


There are many more questions, but I think its best to save them for the next post..see ya in another two weeks.
