I find it funny because we said Mushurruf is the constitution slayer, yet we are reluctant to follow this constitution. Why? Because it provides a relief to an elected President not by some dictator oriented amendment but by the 1973’s Legislature. I think we are treating Constitution similar to the treatment we prevailed with Allah, Islam and Quran. We only follow them in accordance with our own agenda and vested interests. The treatment solely depends on our likes and dislikes, our issues, our reasons and most importantly the benefits associated.

If the constitution provides him relief, we should acknowledge it. And I agree that we should bring him under trial once he is out of office. But we as a nation should respect and adhere to the constitution without any prejudice and follow it without trespassing it.

Such a move against President will yield very negative future outcomes which I will discuss later.

I have this simple almost childish trust and believe in this country and its people,that we will rise out of all our problems however long or hard the road is,we will survive and we will as a nation become what we were supposed to be,become and realize the dream that Iqbal had for us.

That we will live up to the name and not let the sacrifice of so many before 1947 and every man woman and child who has lost his life defending this country either in a war or in some other attack.That we will be able to look them in the eye then shy away when we see them.

One thing i would like to see change is that we somehow forget that this country isnt just about Muslims and that minorities live here too and they are as much Pakistani as anyone of us and have as much stake and say over this land then any of us.Dont forget they will be by your side ready to die when the time comes,because that craze the pagal pan the jazba to do or die doesnt come from being a Muslim,it comes from being a Pakistani,its in our blood Christian,Hindu or Muslim if you are a Pakistani you have it in you.Its just about when you realize that you have the power.

I love this country,i would die for it and when the time comes if it so happens then i will and ill have  a smile on my face.

I am a Pakistani first!!

Pakistan

Everybody wants to go abroad (basically out of Pakistan), those who say who are not intrested in going out must not have had good opportunity or well established here financially, otherwise right from a small part-time student to the executives of multi-national companies either the have applied for immigration to US,UK, Canada, Australia or are thinking of applying it as in their circle all what they discuss is how bad things are going here.

Personally neither I am against nor in favor of going abroad, the standard of living in foreign country is high no doubt about it, but with pro’s there are con’s also, so one remember “everything thing shines is not gold” so doing your home-work will save you in the long run. You cannot have first-hand experience of both sides you have to make a decision now which will affect your life 10-20 years down the line.

There are mix idealogies for both sides, it does’nt matter what’s right.. but all it matters is that what’s right for you!

oh btw! if you are interested in going to Australia drop me a line a very good friend of mine is a consultant and specializes in student immigration for Australia.

You did lose but once again you come out on top for me,you have made us proud well done!

No wonder they did so poorly at WWII, if it not be US then they can’t claim the victory due to their tendency to boost about after having a case of beer. So they did this in modern times by revealing the true identity of tamed racing driver “The Stig”. I know its not a secret which Germans may use to their benefit but nonetheless I love secrets, as a BBC Top Gear follower, I simply love the way Jeremy used to introduce him, “Some say he’s a CIA experiment gone wrong, and that his blood smells of Root Beer. All we know is, he’s called The Stig.”

But in last week’s episode of Top Gear (Season 13; episode 1), Jeremy Clarkson unmasked The Stig, and surprisingly all they said about him in recent past proved true as he is Michael Schumacher. Schumi took a test drive of Ferrari FXX round their track and posted a lap time of 1:10  sec which is faster then the preceding fastest lap of 1:17 by a Gumpert Apollo. He proved that he can drive anything literally anything faster then anyone on Planet Earth. Sometime back I read somewhere that according to Schumi “Winning is his habit” and no wonder it will take a lot of time and patience by the F1 chaps to beat him up. Seven time world champion entertained us once more by his stunt as The Stig in the likes of his time at F1…

Recently in past few years there has been a huge spike in terms of internet users in Pakistan, I do not have the figures to throw here but it must be exponential growth. I still remeber Digicom Dialup ISP back in old days when a guy came to my house and charged me Rs. 500 just for putting TCP/IP Setting in my Windows 95 machine!!

The more people come online the more they are interested in making money once they are done with surfing news, entertainment, games websites.. there are plenty of scams online and offline going on, get rich quick kind of schemes. Recently I was informed about a company who charges Rs. 500/- for training you and they say that you can earn upto 15,000 sitting at your home and spending only few hours on internet, let me break you heart by say this is “another scam” well not exactly a scam they show you high hopes and keep you away from harsh reality of making money online. Here is how it goes and what they tell you to do..

They setup a Blog for you on a Blogspot or Blogger or any free blog-hosting service which allows Google Adsense program. (btw Google Adsense is for webmasters who wish to make money by placing advertisements on their website) Once your Blog is setup they teach you how to Signup for Google Adsense and show you how to place ads on your website powered by free blog hosting companies.

Here is the trickiest part!

You only make money when someone clicks on your ads but Google strictly says that you-yourself cannot click on your website ads, as it violates their terms & conditions which can lead to your account termination… but what they do is create a new Yahoo Chat Account by the name of your memebrshipid or something, and once you sign-in to Yahoo Chat there are other people like you already added to your list who have paid Rs. 500/- for such training.. and everyone is instructed that visit other members sites and click on ads once or twice in a day, deliberately. So Tom, Dick and Harry all paid Rs. 500/- and have signuped. Tom clicks on Harrys google blog ads, Harry clicks on Dicks ads.. and vice versa. Bottom line is that everyone makes money but the question is.. Is it legal? NO WAY! you are deliberately clicking on the ads with no interest in the advertisement or the product’s of the advertiser.

It looks very ideal scenario where you have 300-400 members in your yahoo chat and average 100 clicks per day which can easily make you 200 – 350$ per month.. but Google is not sleeping guys!! they detect fraud clicks, terminate accounts which are involved in such activities.. and worst of all when a level will arise of invalid / fraud accounts from Pakistan they will ultimately stop their AdSense program for Pakistan… so just because of few jerks the whole nation has to suffer.

Pakistan won their first major title in 17 years when they stunned Sri Lanka by eight wickets in the World Twenty20 final at a sell-out Lord’s here on Sunday.

Well, the celebrations were held every area of the country corner. I live in a densely populated area majorly appartments so you could easily make out from the noise coming from all directions that Pakistan Cricket team has not only won the Twenty20 but also the heart of cricket fans

We won. We make the scientists realize that cricket is played neither by taking pride in logic nor by employing it rather by just playing  cricket from pure heart. Nobody, I guess nobody had a slightest clue at the start of ICC T20 that we will make our way to the finals, in the presence of South Africa, India, England, Australia and New Zealand we had very little or no chance.

But the question remains How do we managed to get this far? Its just by believing in ourselves and by playing cricket the way we play. Playing cricket the Pakistani way, which includes poor fielding, cursing fellow players on the field, group hugs, batting collapse, sheer believe on random batting order, considering extras as a good luck charm and most importantly playing cricket as its supposed to be played with pure heart. We play cricket with ‘Tashan’ and ‘Bharam’ that have a distinctive flair attached to it. Pakistan had little cricket in last couple of years even less then that of Bangladesh, almost everyone was out of form

We consider our captain the most incompetent person during a match, we give him suggestions, ridicule him for a change in bowling order and praise him like a Greek hero if incase we win a match which is kind of unique in its own way. Given we lost a game, everyone takes an oath to never cheer for the team with a mouthful of desi slangs.

People call it pure luck that Pakistan secured a spot in the finals. But I think isn’t it the luck which we require most as a nation and as a nation we always believe on miracles. We never did anything we planned rather did everything which we didn’t planned for. We need luck just one more time and we will have a moment to cheer for next decade or so.

Bring this cup to Gaddafi Stadium, this is my Pakistani Dream…
