Manto mian,

(Allow me to amend Rozaiba`s statement- ``country`s top lawfirm dealing in the securitization sector``... )

How big exactly is the securitisation market in Pak. And what do you securitise- Mortgages?Auto Loans?Loan Obligations?Future Flow Generating Assets?

Regards

Re: # 244

wonder -- if Manmohan Singh who had a good meeting with the Generalissimo Musharraf in Habana -- would dare to say the same thing Musharraf said when back to India --

``“The fact that I am roaming/(loafing) around shows how confident and relaxed I am,” -- “This is my longest trip and it shows my confidence.” -- he will be laughed out of office -- or there will be a coup d`etat by the Indian army.....:)

Yaar Harish mian,

Your optimism about sending me to the gallows smacks of naivety. Its not about being ``miffed`` but simply telling you like it is. But the way you love to reassure yourself is most amusing.

``If you hadn`t posted cartoons to compensate for your deficient sense of humor, we`d still be discussing issues, isn`t it?``

Nope you had given up on discussing issues a few days ago, when you failed to answer simple questions about what you were trying to pass off as first hand primary account. As for deficient sense of humor, the high point of your wit is that you know how to spell ass. I am not the one complaining about ``closing out discussions``... so your comeback as always can only be considered lame.

Let us put it this way. Had this been done in front of a judge in any court of law in your own country, the judge would have thrown you behind bars for unconscionable conduct a long time ago.

Aww Yasser baby, I can see clearly you are miffed. If my conduct entitles me for jail, yours would lead you to the gallows.

But thankfuly- for your sake- this is on chowk.com where you can still claim victory despite having a can of whoopass opened mercilessly on your rear end. So your point about ``closing out a discussion`` if pertains to the issue- please see that we stopped discussing the issue a good 20 or 30 posts ago, when you were made to eat your words on several issues...

Aww Yasser, now that is more because you have been caught tongue tied when asked to answer simple questions (as recently as in #252). If you hadn`t posted cartoons to compensate for your deficient sense of humor, we`d still be discussing issues, isn`t it?

As for whoopass and rearends, thanks for reminding everyone of your family background yet again.

But if it is about ``closing`` your mouth... to use your own favorite analogy... is it ever possible to stop a dog from barking.

Bhai Yasser, if one were to record the highest per-capita posts per day, guess who would come up tops? So keep barking!!!!

Perhaps you think you were appointed judge, jury, executioner, but clearly you don`t much to show for your ``great victory``.

Bhai Yasser, looks like you`re having nightmares! Where did I ever speak about a victory? It is just that for a ``lawyer with the top law firm in the country``, it should have been easy for you no?

Which is why-I feel most sincerely- that the little cartoon I have posted in #253 most accuarely portrays your current dilemma.

Aww Yasser, obviously that cartoon gives you some reason to smile because with all that knowledge of law and history (remember the boast about having a great library?), your inability to have closed out this discussion appears rather pronounced and you do need something to reaffirm your faith in yourself and what better than something you think is derogatory of folks in IT!

Dear Harish pai,

Now what would give you a silly idea that you`ve won any argument- except in your own head. Perhaps you think you were appointed judge, jury, executioner, but clearly you don`t much to show for your ``great victory``.

Hiding behind the excuse that you don`t know much about history or law is merely stating the obvious... this is precisely why you`ve not won anything ... Going by objective standards, your frustration is oozing out of your words... your abuse only compounds it. Which is why-I feel most sincerely- that the little cartoon I have posted in #253 most accuarely portrays your current dilemma.

I thank you for your concern, wholely misplaced and misguided as it is, but which as usual I still reciprocate because this fertile overactive imagination might cost you professionally even if you choose to continue in your present career.

Aww Yasser, please do not worry about my career, as much I hate to talk about it to strangers, I`m doing OK, thank you very much. It is yours you should be worrying about. People who dabble in too many things usually haven`t been able to amount to much in life, and so the search for the perfect career.

In any case, coming to the brasstacks. If you haven`t been able to win an argument over someone who has absolutely no grounding in either law or history (something you claim you have), it speaks rather poorly about your standing in your chosen profession, notwithstanding the tall claims of being employed with the ``top law firm in Pakistan``.

Dear Harish pai,

Should I take this as another declaration of victory ala Saddam Hussain syndrome? I thank you for your concern, wholely misplaced and misguided as it is, but which as usual I still reciprocate because this fertile overactive imagination might cost you professionally even if you choose to continue in your present career. As for my perception- my compliment to you should be taken in its original spirit and savoured. Just say thank you next time.

I also most humbly submit that you are probably the most good looking of the Gurumoorthies...

No wonder you`re perpetually on the lookout for alternative careers!! Writer, economist, SAP coordinator, journalist, asspiring lawyer, God knows what else!! If this is how you argue cases, based entirely on your perceptions and guesswork, God save your clients!!

A friendly advice: you should probably try your hand at something else. If you cannot argue with a lowly call center worker, one can imagine your plight when you argue with seasoned lawyers.

Dear Harish pai,

The cartoon has had its desired effect alright. On 256, though, I most respectfuly and humbly submit that I am an ugly Pakistani Ahmadi... perhaps the ugliest of the lot. I also most humbly submit that you are probably the most good looking of the Gurumoorthies... and amongst the best looking Indians out there.

Now that should give enough of an incentive for readers to go look at your profile picture.

Looks like Rozaiba`s harmless comment about my place of work as had a rather nasty impact on you. Allow me to amend Rozaiba`s statement- ``country`s top lawfirm dealing in the securitization sector``... maybe that will appease your pain, hurt and frustration.

Aww Yasser baby, why do you have to try so hard? It makes me feel something isn`t quite right and the cartoons are having the desired effect.

Pakistan does not have ugly brahmins, so what makes it backward, superstiteous and with even less respect among league of nations,.. ugly Ahemdis???

Which ugly Ahmadi are you talking about, Majumdar bhai? AFAIK, there`s only one ugly Ahmadi with his pic on the profile.

Your frustration and name-calling adequately proves who won and who lost...

No Yasser baby, that you have to resort to cartoons instead of some coherent replies proves that you`ve lost. Lawyer at Pakistan`s ``top law firm``? Sure.

Meanwhile, here`s Yasser of the ``top law firm in the country`` fame at his argumentative best:
