i reserve ``brilliant`` for the previous incarnation ... which I thought was almost hawthornish in its unarticulated twisted smile ...

You call it hypocrisy he calls it righteousness. To each his own kaleidoscope.

echoboom bhai saab.. calls atheists etc. zani, sharabi , baba-blacksheep blah blah blah... (it is quite funny actually) ..
this is i think temporal`s ``sophisticated`` reply in return... only that he has the luxury to mask this gibberish as a ``short short story`` and get it on front page.

Temporal,

We are about smothered by the nefarious trick of vile hypocrisy done like a dark, poisonous veil over the minds of us (mostly) innocent denizens by (mostly) crooked politicians.

This article above also reminded me of the rhetorics of a religious leader in Pakistan deriding the social and political system here in the US while his own son was part of the system by being a student at a US university.

Also makes me think if hypocrisy is becoming fashionable somewhere in the world.

Peace!

urstruly:

i seem to have no luck with naming the male character....in an earlier draft he was khaled ahmed ( i was reading TFT then) and not sardar... someone comes along and questions my judgement as another friend `khalid ahmed` was a common friend who lived in a building by the sea in karachi ... so khaled becomes Sardar...but ...seriously what is in a name?... it is the deeds, right?

...i could have said more...and perhaps better...but having set a goal i tried to deliver the short-short within that limit...

...the truth is evident and you know this Sardar... and i will also grant this that you may not be aware of all his perversions;)

dost and hamidm: thanks;)

you have no right to insult sardar jis interacting at chowk. My apologies to all sardars here. Sorry guys. Here is a joke that might cheer you up.

Q: What is that which has one brain cell.

Q: What is that which has two brain cells.

``posting inflammatory diatribes under various assumed male and female nicks``

.......... any idea why somebody would go through the trouble of using multiple nicks ? .... sounds silly to me .....
