Islam-Lite Dont you think the present Islam is already customized by Mullahs?

Rag Doll (Gudiya) Thanks. I really wonder if I have been able to get the real message across? I also wonder if you mean haunting in the real sense or.......

Trunk Nicely written. The theme revolves around reality with regards to expatriates especially in the Gulf region.

Glad it made you laugh.

Thanks for the support.

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 21Burpinder,

What can I say after your comments addressed to Ozer bhaijan?

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 20Zahra Jee...thanks a ton for taking some time out to read my article & for posting your comment. I took your advice and am ready for the ``warm wlecome`` :) BTW I have prepared myself with much more tennacity this time....

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 18Once again...it was my first time especially on Chowk. Had no idea about the norms in the sense that I did not even know whether they are going to edit my story or write back or reject or publish. One thing is for sure, I never meant to disrespect the reader`s bills of rights. Personally what I feel is that ``Chowk`` should be as choosy about the articles as the readers. Once again, I do not mean to shift the blame on Chowk...but what has happened has happened.

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 15Zahra, thanks for your comment. Well, I am doing slightly better. Cannot wait to have the bandages removed so that I can try and expererience another adventure :)

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 13 Ozer, thanks for the detailed comment. Just to let you know that though ``Far from the madding crowd`` by thomas Hardy is a very well known book and I have definitely heard a lot about it but call it a con-incidence or whatever, but the fact is that somehow I have missed on reading that book.

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 11 Miriam:

Thanks for taking time not only to read my article but also to post your comment. Points noted. Let`s see what improvement there is in my next article.

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 8 Thanks a lot Beejay. To be honest, I sent the article half-heartedly straight from a draft that I had saved earlier. Hence typos and all. But will surely keep in mind for the next time.

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 6 Hey I know that and I too was also playing only. It`s true sometimes best of the articles are not selected for some reason or the other. Yet, I must say that the quality here is still a lot better than on other sites.....

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 3 Thanks for the encouragement :)

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 3 Thanks for the encouragement :)

Far from the Maddening Crowd Re: # 1 Oh..this happened only last week.
