Question Authority

It`s all about the mind, isn`t it? The shadier, the more frustrated

We have seen enough head banging eunuchs in our time to know they are what they are...

How`s that for lack of profundity

Musings Of A Suspected Terrorist
Posted by alismo Dec 22, 2002 01:28 pm
Reading Ralph`s comments, one can`t help but wonder that ordinary Joe-american really is cut off from the rest of the world! Judging the whole by its part is not altogether uncommon but certainly more abundant amongst people of that great country. God forbid we start profiling those salt-of-the-earth americans by sampling a potpourri of their great thought leaders - Bush, Jerry Springer, Paula Jones et al.

Secondly, no lesser a man but the great `amrikan` himself would have the supreme gift to brush aside the argument at hand and focus on the author himself. Takes ....s of steel and a brain to go with`em.

You meet many such Ralph`s at US airports though. The best thing to do in those situations is to do what I did. Get out of your queue when he calls you, step on the mat, raise your hands, take off your shoes and pretend to passersby the red color on your temples is what comes with the race!

God bless America.
Imran Khan Needs Money
Posted by alismo Dec 22, 2002 01:28 pm
Its funny how some things stick. They just refuse to unglue! Much as I admire Imran Khan as a cricketer (greatest ever to me!) I can`t help but notice how his causes, no matter how honest (lets ignore the core debate for a moment) have failed to rise above his personality. Uncanny.

Let`s face it, even his cancer hospital was less about the cause and more about him being what he was. And while Allah Wasaya Mianwaliwala would hardly know what Tehreek-e-Insaaf stands for or the `bhao` for insaaf today, he would certainly know that bat, and the handsome man holding it.

And much as Mr Khan makes an effort, no matter what his platform or line of argument, somehow it would all be linked to his jewish/wealth connections with Mr Goldsmith or to his earlier `playboy` leanings or whatever.

I say we end the arguments on this article as of today and just enjoy Imran Khan for the sheer entertainment value his unique situation throws up. Chuckle Chuckle.

Hozzzzattttt!!!!!!!!
