Re: # 54

this was my post.

#55 hey salime, you forgot the hey before presto! unless you were thinking of pesto or dreaming of pushto ;-)

#28, hamidm2 {``salim main,
......... i hereby give you the title of ``instigator`` - i was given that title by my eighth grade english teacher``}

...one gallon putrid water, one huge bucket, one humdum #2, and a generous sprinkiling of periods - presto, we have instant alligator or instigator. This was invented by an 8th grade English teacher named Ozer Khalid. :)

Re: # 278

i have read that initially mohammed what to protray himself as a prophet of jews but was not accepted by them.

it seems he built islam on the existing practices of the region at that time. like adopting christian beliefs, jewish customs.

while we are at it and commenting on the bromides spread across this board

its


While we`re being grammar nazis, shouldn`t that be it`s and not its?

#49 ahh! thats a fine point, there Tahmed32.

The issue is will the pharmacies exist if the cangle and the flame arent there. How, will we ever chase the evil dragon if the flame is not present

dot sahib: but i thought the candle burned out long before the legend of the invisible pharmacies ever will. ;-)

#45 hamidm2 - that #47 was in jest not be to ingested though!

Re: # 45

while we are at it and commenting on the bromides spread across this board

its: maddeningly not maddingly
its: bromides - nothing like bromidic
its: acute sensibilities of most sensitive people not acute sensibilities of most sensible people
its: candle and burn out and flame and die not candle and die (a common misconception amongst most of us desis)


though I agree with your last line on the lack of chemists shops and decent pharmacists

Re: # 38

ozer:

``the likes of Jamaat-e-Islami, the RSS, the saffron brigades benefiting from the status quo``

how????

something has got to change !

........... the bromidic remarks being repeated, day in and day out, by the plebian interlocuters on this chimerically comical forum are maddingly middling, and are painfully painful to the acute sensibilities of most sensible people, even when those who have apparently lost control of their senses as they enter the flickering twilight of their life when the candle that they burned at both ends in their exhuberant youth is beginning to die out and as some youthful yeomen cheer them on and try to emulate their ebullient effervescence which, in the long run, is going to be a detriment to improving indo-pak relations .................

........ that was for ozer ..........

............for the rest of us, what i am trying to say is that this daily rhetoric is getting old ........ the horrible hindoos (i need to come up with a new epithet, this is getting old too) accuse the paki converts of being circumcised, supporting terrorism and hadood laws, raping and pillaging for the last ten centuries, not having enough chemist shops, cross border terrorism (as opposed to in-border terrorism), not having enough help desk engineers, more terrorism, killing bengalis and biharis and other ethnic groups starting with the second letter in the alphabet, not having a railway stationin in lahore, collecting funds for jihad and other charitable causes, changing their names and denyng their hindoo roots, killing shias, allowing mantolives to live, worshiping jinnah instead of gandhi, yet more terrorism, denying mukhtar mai a visa, supporting honor killings and abandoning the practice of sati, not eating enough heeng and, once again, not having enough chemist shops .................

...... the pathetic pakis (another hackneyed term that needs to go) happily accuse the indians of wearing dhotis, eating heeng, burning brides and being butt ugly ........

........personally, i see merit in only two of those charges : not having enough chemist shops and being butt-ugly ............ the rest, as they say, is all politics .............

poignant prudence
safer sanctuaries.
perilous perpetrators
hysteria-hungry
feudal-frenzied


i`m not picking on your alliterations ozer, don`t get me wrong, i`m just cunningly comtemplating them

Media vultures and nationalistic ethnic bigots on the wrong end of political spectra will be rhetorically ricocheting religio-nationalistic venom across various foray to notch up cross-border apprehension.


now did you really need the tongue twister

Tahmed...
