The Sunday Blog # 129

Today is the Sunday the 23rd of September 2018 the 12th of Muharram 1440 H till the Sunset ( 6:28 pm , Karachi ) And this is my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty Nine ) .

Its been quite a hot and sunny day and since most people were out in the sun after very many hours of holiday they must have felt as if it was burning hot like forty degrees but it was not and according to this weather online site it was just thirty one  degrees and right now its twenty eight degrees centigrade partly cloudy ... well my room temperature is still thirty one degrees but about half an hour ago i went out to look up at the sky and there i saw only moon and no stars hiding due to thick haze or smog . Its been quite hazy all day today and now again there are no clouds over my head . Anyways, the Good thing is that we survived the Ashura or the tenth of Muharram . As mentioned in earlier Sunday Blogs i had chosen to stay out and away from the roads and highways ....for all the ten day of the muharram leading to the tenth Ashura day , but unfortunately
we had two Fridays and Juma Mubarak prayers which i cannot miss so last friday and on the tenth i had to go out for the prayers . On the First Friday i went straight to the mosque and came back just grabbad a soft drink from the shop on the way adjacent to the  mosque . But this time my dear brother had especially cooked a qorma from the bakra eid meat ....yes we still have that ....LOL
So i searched for the Market ovens open on that day . Surprise surprise the one i least expected to be open on this day opposite our Dear MNA 's residence was not only open but supplying in bulk . The quality was poor that day but then who cares when you find the treasure trove on a day when you least expect it . There was very little traffic on the roads and streets that day . In a city like Karachi if you turn off the Mobile network for one day half of the city comes to a stand still and this was the third day in our neighbourhood . All the Free Delivery services were off and closed ...shutdown ...locked . And even the Die Hard ....Mummy ney bulaya hai , Mummy kay Haan jana hai ....had nothing to wake up their spouses . LOL
Remember this war Ain't over yet !!
LOL
Muharram , safar , ...Rabiulawal ....Islam taza hota hai her mahina do mahina kay baad ....
For the First Time i felt that the grip of Media was completely loosened to set a muharram mood and the grip or pressure of the Minority Sect on media was non existent . People like our dear MNA sitting in and imitating their scholars was , i beg your pardon was just like a parody . No i did not watch his shows or for that matter the television except for the two regular hindi soaps serials , but we have television running all day and you can't miss it unless you are lucky enough to get hold of the remote to change the channel or shut it off . Ever since i can remember from my childhood day we used to watch and listen to the special Show on Sham-e-ghareeban on the Ashura evening and then salaam Akhir on PTV , Now this time nobody knew where the PTV is in the cable channel list , I don't think it is tuned on the program list of the tv . And beside the Whole neighbourhood was either watching Asia Cup live or playing street cricket .
So this makes me think ....how and why this happened in 2018 ?
And you wont even believe what happened the very next day .

Somebody Found an Order dated 14th september 2018


Okay so lets turn on the dream machine for a few minutes and see what happens if our very dear Sindh police is so totally revamped.

People arguing with the Sindh Police officers on the streets will not be considered a hero , politically funded social and tout organisations like Fixit and jibran nasir will die its own death , Boys and Girls going out in bad mood and with higher chances of getting in a quarrel with the Escorts and pickets will make sure they have at least two near and dear ones online and available at all times and willing to come to the police station and bail them out.
Okay back to reality ....
I don't remember correctly but i believe the term that is used for such kinds of changes is cosmetic ....yes it is ....no fundamental change just unifarm change kare wartu , SMG wapas kharein side arms deye chado . youthias khaan narmi saan gaal kare , mobile jammers saath hamesha rakhan ....cash kona kharein hamesha JazzCash ya Easypaisa te israr karein .




Okay then From Sindh Police to the Islamabad High Court ......

In a not so surprising two bench decision the honorable Judges granted a suspension of Nab reference judgement in the famous or should i say the Infamous Avenfield Case . and granted a bail to mian saab and his family more commonly known and in my pervious Sunday Blog #128 ( Hundred and twenty eight ) referred as The Sicilian Mafia of Avenfield london the amount set by the High Court i believe is Rs 5 lacs each and a surety of the same amount .
Since they are the Big Shots in Punjab within hours all the procedures were done and they were honorably released from the Adiyala jail . A similar prisoner would have been released yesterday after ashura holidays . Its not just about Money here in Pakistan its about Power as well .

The Timing Has been very Interesting  because whoever was calling the shots , wanted it to feel like Hell freezing over .....And maybe it did ....But you know we have not been ex communicated ever ...it is just the Interstellar movement space and time that makes certain things fair seeming when in reality Hell is not even programmed to appear fair seeming .

So put a sock in it and don't ever try this on me ever again ....


Okay so Not yet 3:00 am but i think i better take a break and have some tea and biscuits ...

2:41 am Break ( 1125 words)

3:24 am Last week i had breakfast in this break but today i can't eat a meal because i had the Sunday Breakfast for dinner 

 The Aim was to eat and sleep till midnight and then wake up fresh and get on with this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty nine ) till the Fajr Prayer time without feeling drowsy or hungry . And even though i was not able to sleep well continuously for three hours till midnight but i did get some R&R .....and now here i am three plus hour and still going on and on with just a little short break having tea and biscuits . So now i believe i have at least two hours straight to continues after that i will probably have some regular breakfast and then sleep . I really don't expect anymore chaapa today because my dear brother is cooking Dumba Karhai if he found the tomatoes and other ingredients . Yesterday evening as i was going to the market he told me to bring a kg of Red tomatoes for the Dumba karhai with fat tail and all ....( please don't make me go into the all ...LOL) . I asked him For How much ? and he said its Rs 40 / - per kg maybe fifty at the most .....So i went to the vegetable cart and said aik kilo tamatur deyna ....this young boy he weighed the red ones and put it in a shopper and asked Aur kuch ? and i said no ...kitne hua ? and he said Sau ! Rs Hundred and i said ye bakra eid toh nahien hai chalees ka aata hai ....and he replied ...han ata toh hai per abhi nahein hain ....His reply confused me ....and i said to myself that if i took this kg of tomatoes for Rs hundred back home today and before i reached home there is a push cart at the door crying out loud Sau kay dhai kilo as he usually does especially on weekends at that hour , how embarrassing it would be for me . Because you can hide all your wealth from a taxman but you cannot hide or suppress the Sound of the street vendors sabzi walas when they are offering a deal or a bargain from somebody who is challenged or in a race to cook a Dumba Karhai with fat tail and all the Shinwari style .
So anyways thanks to that over charging vegetable stall and my very rare frugality stubbornness I am here doing this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and Twenty Nine ) instead of sleeping sound without a dream after eating Dumba Karhai with fat tail and all . So if i woke up late at around noon and my dear Brother had already cooked the Dumba Karhai with fat tail and all before i wake up then i would have to go and bring the Naan Bread from the nearest Market oven thank God the muharram is over and everything is back to normal so i will only have to go to the regular market oven and not here and there . I believe we are at the last leg of the Bakra Eid Now . Our very reliable Dawlance Refrigerator is also hanging on just like the katrina kaif movie akshay kumar and others hanging from the cliff ....
I don't know if we could sell it and go for Hajj next year .
Okay now suppose my dear brother reads this my the Sunday Blog #129 ( Hundred and twenty Nine ) when he wakes up this morning before starting to cook the Dumba Karhai with Fat tail and all the shinwari style and feels like i am making fun of him or feel like i am invading his privacy by telling the whole world what he has not even done yet . Then i could wake up and forced to eat the Dumba yakhni Pulao with fat tail and nothing else and i may not be required to go the nearest market oven to bring the hot and soft freshly baked naan bread . The chances of my sleeping or feeling drowsy all afternoon after lunch will remain high no matter what that is why i have increase the before fajr time for this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty nine ) just as i did for this my the Sunday Blog # 128 ( Hundred and twenty eight ) last weekend and even without a chaapa all day i was able to finish with a six thousand words blog....Unfortunately the week went so fast that i did not get a chance to read and edit it so hopefully i hope that nobody read it but the views or hits to that blog has been more than i had expected because there were less useless vulgar images or bookmarks which could have attracted traffic from china and iran ...anyways
i am so pleased and excited right now because for the second week today i have almost reached the two thousand words mark on the words counter for this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty nine ) with out any external copy paste sharing except for a tweet or two must be less than a hundred words together nothing significant anyways .

And talking about significant the most significant personal achievement beside staying put and not getting over excited by anything, anything at all , was watching the Indian English Movie SoNata 2017 . The Bengoli Madam MS Apurna sen is behind this movie which is so hard on my calculas ....the synopsis says it is about three single women . In all there were three people plus two on skype and one below only seen in a separate window frame standing below on the receiving end . So the question is how many man were in this movie ? How many were in the screen play and how many men were in the story or the play as they like to call it.
I am mentioning this, and this may be very educational for some ,  especially because ever since i started this my the Sunday Blogs the chaapas don't really irritate me at all or harass me or even alert me like a fifth grader is when the head mistress or principle suddenly enters a class . I now see the visitors as the maths teacher who leaves with a problem to solve and sometimes without a clue . What i was use to in my childhood was language teachers only arts sections and not sciences at all .

So now this brings us to a million Dollar question ? How the visitors see me when they come uninvited and unannounced . Surely they don't see me as fifth grader or feel like a teacher coming here . Nobody ever says anything about me as if we speak a very different language . Monkey Donkey stupid is what amyra singh of kulfi kumar baje wala used to express her feelings about kulfi . But i really feel that nobody who comes here feels that way about me . The maths problem is that if i hide in a cupboard and give them space to move around freely and do what they have come here to do ....they would still look in the cupboard as if we were playing the hide and seek . So for any game to be absolutely fair don't you think that after they seek and find me , they should hide till i seek or find ....no ? is there a time limit ? i don't seek or don't find the game ends and restart ?

Okay that's enough for today its time for a Break with a prayer for my dearly departed Parents
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
5:49 am Break ( 2422 words)


11:15 am Good Morning ! I think i can say that because its not noon yet . Here is the first tweet of the day
Sun 12th Muharram 1440
31°C
11:00 am okay i am up before noon on a very quiet and peaceful Sunday morning . Its getting hotter outside only a thin layer of Haze or smog preventing a full burning by the bright sun . Had tea and cannot decide about the brunch .



Yes it is hot and quiet much quitter than it was on the tenth Ashura morning . I did not turn on the television and the other one is also surprisingly off so i didnot catch the news update but here on the karachi twitter trend Lahore and Earthquake is at the tops with modi also in the race . So yesterday the top brass on both side of the border was exchanging hot words and today somebody thumped the foot because they felt a jolt in lahore , that's what the twitter trend says

So it must be an interesting Sunday Morning in Lahore and parts of Punjab where the weather is mostly sunny in the country , Lahore is having a shower since yesterday and first it was the flood alerts and now the earthquake ...so what's next Tsunami ? 
I believe i need to take a break here and refill the cup of tea and probably have something to eat as well

11:45 am Break (2703 words )

12:29 pm Ah its noon or after noon . And Saudi Arabia is Happy at 88 
And why it should not be they have found a better deal here in Pakistan then the previous regime was offering .
Anyways these things are like a sweet dream for US especially the People of Karachi . The development of Gwadar may ease the population related pressures  here but we are also afraid that we do not have the leadership it requires to provide a peaceful co existence ambiance with a friendly neighbour and a brotherly Partner with whom our nationals can only do business and not a legal relation . And beside the Agreements that will be signed by the Governments of these three nations will open up doors for Multinationals and gold diggers from around the world . And for that we need a very strong Government and educated as well as experienced Law makers and advisers . All we have here is the Uneducated Landlords and Army deserters . So all the Best and God Spede !!
My speed has been slow this morning very slow but i have still reached the three thousand words mark on the words counter for this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty nine) .

So after the break we will try to go faster and reach the next thousand words mark quicker . But here i take a break with prayer for my dearly departed Parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
1:13 pm Break ( 3026 words)

2:33 pm Yes i am back after a very successful lunch and facebook meet up . To avoid the drowsiness i only had this half a plate of Dumba Yakhni pulao with fat tail which is probably all melted .

The Halwa plate from last evening was already empty when i joined for the Lunch . We also had a surprise Chaapa Dear Brothers friend who was going to a parosan neighbours funeral and left before the lunch . Most of his old neighbours were related to my dearly departed Parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
or friends of the family . After the land development we hardly know anyone there .
Just like an old neighbour cousin of the present neighbours who moved out  few years ago is standing alone in the hot sun with the Biryani police hoping to get a glimpse of me watching  while the ladies are having a majlis in air conditioning . It is so difficult to understand how and why the British Raj disowned this Minority sect all over Pakistan and especially in Karachi the most dangerous city in the world , so visibly .

According to the twitter updates Qurashi has arrived in Washington before going to New York for the UNGA ....i knew it ....he had other plans lol

So anyways it will be very interesting to listen to his speech at the UNGA ...I am very looking forward to it . His pause at the zebra crossing in a sentence

! load shedding 3:11 pm
on data and battery now
3:20 pm Break ( 3380 words)

3:58 pm Thanks for the break ....and the recharging of Data ....it seems that my unpublished blogs are all public property and somebody makes sure that it gets published and saved and i have no excuse at the end of the day ....any how
since this pause has been longer than any zebra crossing pause so there is no point in going back to that topic again ...lets move on . The Match is about to begin or must have already started let me check on twitter




okay at least they won the toss well done congrats Pakistan !!
Lets pray that the crazy neighbours shut down their electric generators its been quite a while since the power was restored and their generators are still polluting
the environment .  
Okay .... Now this is a very interesting news .....
I will comment on this soon when i understand the relation of Sh Rasheed with the PTI ....

Okay too drowsy and stiff muscles and shoulders,  so here i take a break with a prayer for my dearly departed Parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
4:32 pm Break ( 3668 words)

5:48 pm Feeling so Lucky today ....




Anyways ,

This is really awesome !! ye qoum ek din zaroor jaigi ...Anyways here in jamshed town of Karachi the most dangerous city in the world we have an almost clear Blue sky before the sunset ....

the weather in improving from a very hot to normal karachi windy cool and after having a pista chocolate kulfi i am feeling very fresh and relaxed , in fact too relaxed to sit here and do this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty nine ) . I don't know realy don't what has happened since the lunch , i haven't have it going with full thrust but still i have managed to bring this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty nine) to a very respectable figure of nearly Four thousand words mark on the words counter . the subject matter does not matter at all today because everybody is in the PAKvIND game and nobody would be the least interested in what i am saying or doing at the end of the day they would with  the result of the game in the mind will judge my performance so i have to be more than carefully not to miss any regular event of the day and also need to have a very respectable score on the words counter ....Since i am not using or adding useless vulgar images or bookmarks only tweets so no matter what i say here or type here the  first glance will create a very good impression ....LOL
Okay on second thought i think i need to reduce the size of few of the food images as well or do not add any tweets from now till the end of the day and this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty nine ) .
Anyways , it s time for another break .
So here i take a break with a prayer for my dearly departed Parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!

6: 18 pm Break ( 4058 words)

Sun 13th Muharram 1440H
30°C
8:01 pm Good Evening !



Okay then that is it ....so lets move on to the movies of the week ....











  • Iddarammayilatho (2013)Rated 4 stars ....happy ending with an spare wheel ...director , filmmaker and writer same person ....no wonder 
  • The Super Khiladi 2 Rabhasa (2014)rated 6 stars ...too many twists and turns but somehow there was a happy ending ...okay 
  • A Boy with Good Qualities (2018) Manchi Lakshanalu...Rated 6 stars . It is sad that elections process is too engineered people don't even get the sympathy vote these day ....very informative and educative movies i must say a must watch PSP and gibran nasir types candidates . 
  • Love and Shukla (2017)Rated 9 stars . A gentleman world !!
  • Baadshah (2013)Rated 4 stars ....too complicated but the concept and psychology factor was quite good . should have tried with a smaller budget ...lol
  • Sonata (2017)Rated 4 stars ...I often wonder that if some day they found out about her will there be any change in their attitude towards me or is it too late already . The movie maybe good but i may have already watched too many PTV dramas that i felt a deja vu all along and also it had too much drinking and smoking and sex talk and they did not show the neighbour , almost felt cheated !! lol
  • Ghost Machine (2009)Rated 5 stars . Okay so our news channel teams have never thought of this when they go ghost hunting . Well don't you think this movie has a better happy ending then total recall and total recall returns or whatever . it is interesting that this movie is not listed as a horror movie only sci fi thriller action movie . and rated in R category . 

  • Okay so that is it for the week movie review . Hopefully next week will not be as interesting as this week was in the current affairs and foreign affairs and Asia Cup . so i may be able to enjoy more and watch better movies .

    8:59 pm Break ( 4378 words)

    10:14 pm Okay so another two hours to go before i can shutdown and watch the last ball of the match which is very one sided at the moment . India need 113 runs and all wickets saved 26 overs remaining ....Pakistan is loosing again ....
    okay maybe they are protesting the Najam Sethi exit . or maybe he is blackmailing him from his ipad ....anything is possible ....when we fired one we should have fired sarfarz and his team as well and hired a new team ....obviously then we could have said that it is a new team and needs some time to settle down and the media and so called experts of the game  would have agreed that way we could have saved the face and saved millions from embarrassing themselves and the foul language used for the team , players and the country by Indian media and social media . as well as the heart broken kids from pakistan and former players , experts and social media .

    86 runs in 24 overs .....

    Today my karachi twitter trend has nothing to show but the Asia Cup Cricket related hash tags ....amazing has never seen anything like this before

    Karachi trends

      Change trend settings
    Interesting Our very dear media has not only forgotten the indian army chief 's threat to pakistan , they have also forgotten our ISPR's rebuttal as well . Titantic !!
    two centuries are coming up in the next over ....
    as india progresses to 53 runs in 19 overs .
    dhawan at 98 and sharma at 91


    Bhai bade screen ka rent toh dey do .....


    Dhawan 103 not out yes this is more fun reading the match then watching it live with bad edits and cutsokay so now lets quit this game and move to trump and his supreme court nominee Judge Kavanough and his sexual assault accuser christine blasey ford or something like that.... So never mind the details of this scandal as this has been going on all year and there is a very long list of females who have accused The President of the United States of America of doing the bad things to them . In normal societies like ours when somebody who is a hopeless lazy good for nothing person suddenly arises and get power and position , people who have known him or her or has been really tough on him or her are afraid that now he or she will get back to us and can ruin our lives so we better hide or be nice to him or her and maybe he or she may forgive and forget the past . That is just normal practice sometimes we are lucky some times we are not ....some keep grudges very long and hard to forget some change with power and fortune . But here in the United States of America and since the President Trump has won an unbelievable victory ....allegations keep pouring in from far and wide of the country like campaign donations . not only against him his team in administration and his campaign mangers as well as his nominees . The allegation virus was very severe in the Hollywood when actors and directors were even charged on the basis of these years old allegations and many cases were settled out of the court by paying hefty sums of money some are still under trail and before judiciary and house and senate committees . The allegation virus did spread across the world through the social media and a metoo hash tag became very popular . But Still this Scandal is far more important than any other especially the one with the porn star stormy danials because that only helped mr trump to get up and fight which is what it was meant to be ....but here Judge kavanough is just a nominee at the moment and he may lose this nomination
    And even though there seems to be much less chances of it right now but either way the republicans may loose a lot of unsatisfied women voters in the midterms ...which will be a great test up ahead . So looking forward to the coming thursday hearing .
    Okay it seems that India has won with 63 balls remaining and 9 wickets . And Pakistan is out of the Asia cup the indian tweets will get more spicier now so i believe its time for me take a leave for this my the Sunday Blog # 129 ( Hundred and twenty nine ) . Honestly after a very great early start and over two thousand words till fajr and sleep , i was certain that i will do better than last two weeks today but then it is very difficult to concentrate and stay focused on a important pakistan match day and even more difficult on a Pak vs India Match day . Still i made it to and crossed the Five thousand words mark on the words counter which is not that bad especially with a depressing and dismal performance by the Pakistan Cricket team . I am still not sure who to blame now the former or the just in Mani je ....or just the team . the thing is that despite tall claims by the ISPR the team has performed really bad against all and especially against India ...And this is happening when i was planning to change my sleeping habits and routines . Now i will have to stay up all night all week so that the Armed forces may sleep soundly .
    Anyways ,

    okay the time is really up this time ...So i leave with a very very favorite song of mine from my past life ...i am very sure nobody survived .
    LOL

    Okay All the Best ....Kaha suna maaf ....

    Allah Hafiz !
