The King’s Gambit: Chapter 1 (The Immigrant)

Ah, wish fullfillment here. Deep down, the inheritors of Timur, Babar and Ghazi, feel ashamed at having frail india as the enemy.
But battling with Israel, ah , that will make them respected by Arabs, a true honour.

aicha,

I think its more than 12...add Ashok, Glen, snopy...can we get a definative list, somebody? Chowk editors?

12-head - term of endearment for an interactor who feels compelled to use diff handles (he has his reasons!) At last count it was 12 - hence the term.

Aamir #72 Ha! Ha! You have a sense of humor, I `ll grant you that.

Aamir #60 Sorry to bore you, sir. You see, I have only one head, and therefore cannot entertain folks on chowk by being changing nicks like you do.

harimau #63 Greetings. How is our half-brained sob feeling today?

re: 12-head AAmir

{{A bania who is intern of a jew}}

how`d you know? half the firm is indeed jewish.

unlike you, i`d rather be an `intern of a jew` than an intern of a mullah who takes you in the backroom for `special meetings`...

Josh 47; Don`t worry, I am sticking to software. This is just a hobby. Pulp Fiction, by the way, was a huge hit, which transformed US cult cinema, not to mention the career of John Travolta.

aicha 50; This has been interesting experience for me also.

Aamir 52; What is the website`s URL?

Semipreciousme 61; I will check out Cussler. Have you read The Fifth Horseman by Lapierre and Collins? These two authors are my favorite. They write the same book in French and English, respectively.

Godot 64; Imran Series is a classic. I read a few. It was more sohpisticated than Ishtiaq Ahamd. By the time I got past Ishtiaq Ahmad, I was hooked on English stuff. So never got too deep into Imran Series. But one would have to say, Imran Series is the benchmark of Pakistani Thrillers.

I haven`t read any La Carre. Although many readers consider him the top Thriller writer.

P.S. Could someone explain the significance of the term 12-head on this thread. Should I include him/her as a character.

Just submitted the second chapter of this fledgling story to Chowk. Let`s wait and see whether the Chowk editors will publish it.....

How can MUsharaff just give away support for Kashmir .DO YOU THINK THIS IS BOOLYWOOD LAAGAAN MOVIE ,THAT AAMIR KHAN WILL PLAN A UPSET WIN OF INDIA BY WRITING THE SCRIPT .INDIANS HAVE BEEN WATCHING BOLLYWOOD MAKE BELIEVE ,FEEL GOOD,WISHFULL THING, MOVIES FOR FAR TOO LONG

Re: Rafique, #44

``Not to mention Imran Series by Ibn-e-Safi.``

Hey, I was totally hooked on Jasoosi Dunya and the Imran Series while growing up in Pakistan (I used to pretend I was Colonel Faridi!) I collected them. Collected almost all of them. Rooshi, Balck Zero...what memories you brought up for me! Ibn-e-Safi lived not very far where I lived in Karachi. Once, my best friend (who was also a fan of his) and me went to his house and got his autograph.

But, for me, the best-ever spy novel is ``The Spy Who Came in from the Cold`` by John La Carre. l Absolutely loved it. Couldn`t put it down.

Re: AAmir, #52

``His [Ibn-e-Safi] sons have a web site``

Can you let me know the URL? Thanks.

``semipreciousme 37; I have not read Clive Cussler. I am still stuck on Clancy. Sometimes I think Clancy goes into so much technical detail just to make his books longer. He just wrote one on the Net, which I will start reading soon. What does Cussler write about?``

….his genre’s mainly thrillers-cum-adventure….pretty good….his main protagainst works for an American secret agency, and goes without saying, has saved the world many a times over...

Forwarded from sherdil:

``Looks like Chowk did not put on my last two posts. This is a simple and straightforward message here: Time for Pakistan and President Musharraf to stand our ground. If it is war with India, let`s get it on. Musharraf has bent over backwards to get the Indians to talk peace and has had nothing but petulance from them. Any more than what he has done is unreasonable. Whatever else is asked of Pakistan, it cannot be appeasement anymore. It`s time we stood up with dignity.``

AAmir #46 ``i didnt you couldnt read ENGLISH...READ ````ONLY`````` intelligent Aicha ,Rafique ..fools``

I CAN make OUT your SENTENCE above, ``THOUGH``. So, I AM not A total FOOL, dont YOU think???

PS That post of yours was so short that I thought it was the OTHER AAmir (y`know, the normal AAmir, with only one head).

PS How are the other hydra-heads doing today? I hear Fatimah-head is having an affair with Bhardwaj-head??
