And now, the end is near,
And so I face the final curtain.
My friends, I’ll say it clear;
I’ll state my case of which I’m certain.

I’ve lived a life that’s full -
I’ve travelled each and every highway.
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

– My Way – Frank Sinatra

When God tells you its time to wind up…your healthy self thinks how? Then you think of what you must do before the rollover.. :-) and get on with doing it.

Anyways…I think I’ll become unapproachable…soon…so this is probably the last post…

See you later..
                                                         …much later..

For what is a man? What has he got?
If not himself – Then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way.

Yes, it was my way.

– Frank Sinatra

… pray for me….and take care

Now Ch. Shuajaat had his angioplasty from the same Dr Mubashar. Not only that, Ch Shujaat is also living at Dr Mubashar’s place these days and Muslim League (Q) guys had dinner at the same place.

Aren’t these Mullahs and politicians being hypocritical, on one hand not allowing Ahmadis on any Qaleede (key) positions and on the other hand trusting them with their own lives?

Below is the news as reported by Daily Jang.

Since we have virtually eliminated minorities from Pakistan we might as well remove the white area in our flag that supposedly represents them. The result is shown above and is obviously stunning, just as Pakistan is without minorities.

PS: The above is sarcasm as hopefully most people would have realised already.

Now you can read a “tourist’s” view of the city. MQ has recently returned to the city after a long absence and puts down his impressions in this excellent article at All Things Pakistan.

According to a news report, a certain private school in Washington was recently faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom. That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints. Every night the maintenance man would remove them and the next day the girls would put them back.

Finally the principal decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the maintenance man.
She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night (you can just imagine the yawns from the little princesses). To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required.

He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it.

Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.

There are teachers…. and then there are educators.

!فيض سالگرہ مبارک
