The Sunday Blog # 173

Today is the Sunday , the 28th of July 2019 , the 24th of Ziqad 1440 H till the Sunset ( 7:19 pm ; Karachi ) And this is my the Sunday Blog # 173 ( Hundred and seventy three ) .

Once again i wish to begin my Sunday Blog with a Salute to the Pakistan Army !!
Three Hearty Cheers for the Pakistan Army !!
Pakistan Zindabad !
Pakistan Army Paindabad !!
Shukria Raheel Sharif !!

When Pakistan or Any Army in the world is up against the tough challenges obviously there is National Security and personnel security is involved . I can understand that information and right to information is curtailed  and sometimes comes down to a need to know basis . And when that is combined with the bad or uncertain weather ...Power and Net outages are very ordinary ...So what i am trying to say is that While the Pakistan Army was scoring Big Big Gains ....against Enemies and Foes ....i was right here and was not able to fully follow them through the media and social media .

So This week we or should i say ....the neighbours ...had a lot of Power outages ...it all started with the light drizzle ...on monday night ...

And then one by one all the feeders of the Karachi Electric lost the grip ....But this did not seem the case ...for us ..because ...we had multiple shutdowns ...some long and some very brief ...like a circuit break ... obviously ...somebody did not want me to clap and enjoy the Whitehouse and President Trump's performance ....He seemed so desperate .....to scratch the back ...I wish Pakistan should have sent Damat Baraqatohum ....of the green revolution ....and i am sure Mr Trump would have ....chanted ...Salu Allal Habib

Anyways ...
 ShowBiz is No Biz ....
>

So we had the chicken and eggs ....most of the week ...and i tried to continue my routines ...The Tasteless mangoes were mostly converted into tasteless IceCream and Shakes ...
And that is how my body and skin is without the rash or boils ....despite the bad weather and power outages ....

Glad to know that my neighbours were not the only people in the city ...the neighbours of other siblings living two towns away told the same tales ....extra shortages ...extra shutdowns and extra paisa ....

Anyways ...

the good thing about this week ...the BEST thing about this week was that ...my cooking bone woke up ...and inspired by the Biryani KID 's Ad ...I tried to make a jhatpat Biriyani ....at night when the siblings were almost asleep ....with the leftovers ....

The first one had too much water and it was too late to drain ....so even though i saved half the rice ( sada) ...i felt like i was eating the happa ...or khichri ....

the next night it was much better ....and also made from the lest over beef qorma so it tastes  amazing ....the only problem was that ...the qorma was a little cold from the fridge ...and before mixing i took the rice out of the pan ...so when i started eating ....the biriyani was cold ....Can you imagine i was sweating like a ....kitty animal (LOL)  and the Biriyani was cold and i could not use the microwave ...because there was no light and puting it back in the pan would have ruined it ...

Anyways ....it looked and smelled so great that i did not bother and ate it JhatPat ...After hurriedly eating ...my sister saw me sweating and panting like a shepherd's assistant animal ...( LOL) ...Yes it was too spicy as i have put in some extra spicies ...So anyways ...the coming night ...she did a favour and boiled some plain rice ....can  you believe that ....?  And the K Electric did not turn off the lights ....
So there goes my hat trick and a chance to make it Perfect ....Biriyani ....
Have to pray for Water ....now

1:46 am Break ( 633 words)

3:06 am Thank God the All Mighty Allah  Amen ! we have water ....it was too muddy so i did not pump it up maybe the mud settles down by the morning ...
Had only tea during the break ....had daal chaawal ....lentil rice for dinner ...so even after a two hours sleep i feel stuffed . Will probably skip the breakfast as well ...
Saein is back ...and will be turning on the lights full load for the first time since the KE sub contractors changed the electric meters ....so i better hurry up ....LOL
Chota saein is looking at the new meters and me just like my sadly departed Phophi used to look after returning from a long trip or ride ....Amen !

Okay so we had a very timely rain yesterday ....Finally the MET office can claim some respect ...because they predicted a thunderous stormy rain for the weekend and beyond ....probably till the tuesday ...

The sky changed to the rain mode on friday morning ...and when i was at the mosque i was expecting the rain to start any minute ...but it did not start not even a drop or drizzle ...I was surprised greatly ....but not as much as i was shocked to see the underpass blocking Tariq Road traffic almost complete ....taking advantage of the awesome mausam i went around the famous eateries on the other side of the underpass ...as well as on this side ....No Love birds ....no dating shating ....only the staff and the heavily armed guards ....Kids are not taking chances at all ....they want everything arranged ...everything planned ....no ifs and buts ....
The illegal constructions in the Yaar Jang area is going on in full ...no problem from the control authorities or the polio drive ....Federal and provincial governments are fully endorsing and protecting the mafia . The moment i returned home ...Crazy neighbours heavily armed guard with rusty pump-up started narrating a thief story . I tried very heard to translate it into dollar terms ....changing fonts and accents ....and i am sure i have the right translation ...it is so sad that the insanity clause never helps the crazy people in this Mafia World ....for years no decades people are trying to prove me insane or mad . Some to do away for good and some to never let me go ....yet on the contrary ...i only follow as a beacon the unwritten British Constitution ....which says ....

ہوگا کسی دیوار کے سائے میں پڑا میرؔ
کیا کام محبت سے اس آرام طلب کو

the interesting thing is that when you are chasing a mirage ...and you look back .....the Start looks much more bleak than it was at the beginning ....LOL

مطرب نے پڑھی تھی غزل اک میرؔ کی شب کو
مجلس میں بہت وجد کی حالت رہی سب کو
پھرتے ہیں چنانچہ لیے خدام سلاتے
درویشوں کے پیراہن صد چاک قصب کو
کیا وجہ کہیں خوں شدن دل کی پیارے
دیکھو تو ہو آئینے میں تم جنبش لب کو
برسوں تئیں جب ہم نے تردد کیے ہیں تب
پہنچایا ہے آدم تئیں واعظ کے نسب کو
ہے رحم کو بھی راہ دل یار میں بارے
جاگہ نہیں یاں ورنہ کہیں اس کے غضب کو
کیا ہم سے گنہگار ہیں یہ سب جو موئے ہیں
کچھ پوچھو نہ اس شوخ کی رنجش کے سبب کو
دل دینے سے اس طرح کے جی کاش کے دیتے
یوں کھینچے کوئی کب تئیں اس رنج و تعب کو
حیرت ہے کہ ہے مدعی معرفت اک خلق
کچھ ہم نے تو پایا نہیں اب تک ترے ڈھب کو
ہوگا کسو دیوار کے سائے میں پڑا میرؔ
کیا ربط محبت سے اس آرام طلب کو

zindagī yūñhī bahut kam hai mohabbat ke liye
 ruuTh kar vaqt gañvāne kī zarūrat kyā hai


LOL !!

Political Science nahi per aani chahiye thi ......
Okay so i believe the sehri time is slipping away ....No no ...i have no intention of fasting today ....the thing just came to my mind after a glance at the wall clock ....Oh by the way the Room Temperature has gone down two degrees since yesterday morning after the rain ....it is thirty three (33) degree centigrade .
So as i was saying the Rain came on the morning of the second last weekend before the Bakra Eid . No ....it is next week ...But the last weekend is just a day before the eid ...not enough time for the show off mafia ...On friday before the rain i did not find very many sacrificial Animals on the streets around tariq road and Yaar Jang area ...so i was expecting that the tents would come up today ...and the female's friend Animal walks of the sacrificial animals would start ...in the neigbourhood ...but we have a very quiet neighbourhood all day and night yesterday and today ...i will update the status in the evening once again if it did not rain ....or drizzle ...oh by the way ....fire has erupted in a used garment godowns in the site area ....lets see if they ? can stop the rain .....this time again ....Builder Mafia ....Builder Mafia ...

4:32 am Break ( 1630 words)

7:04 am My eyes are shutting down with sleep ...but But water and rain woke everybody up ...and the smells and sounds from the kitchen is making it impossible to sleep ....and besides it rains so little here ...that sometimes even i want to believe the poor people on the streets ....exiled from their hometowns ( illaqa ) who say ...its all because of the Sins ....as if Thar is the Paradise of Sin ....
So i wanted to stay up and watch whatever rain that we have and record it for the future generations ....

Here is the first tweet of the day ...

Sun 24th Ziqad 1440
33°C
6:52 am Good morning ! ...the rain or heavy drizzle stopped ...here ...not sure about the other towns ...not risking going out ...better sleep ...


And talking of sin ...the Govt of Sindh according to the news ...has imposed a 19.5 % tax on internet ...to punish the service provider for the bad service they have been providing me .....LOL
I told you somebody do read my Sunday Blogs and tweets very regularly ....anyways i am sure a lot of revenue will be generated by this tax 19.5 % is massive ...the revenue will be huge ...so do you think i can get the job of carrying this huge amount to UAE and Kannada ....? yesterday there was a news that the weed friendly government of kannada is easing the visa now the money launderer can get a visa of Kannada in just twenty( 20) days


Web results

All those who have seen people from Kannada will agree ...that education has nothing to do with it ....LOL
Okay usually when so many people are hurt just to punish somebody who has wronged me or disturbed me by divine intervention or God Bless America ...i feel very bad ...but here i am glad ...and think that taxing the broadband users will definitely  improve the quality and remove the apathy by the Service providers ....This definitely proves beyond a reasonable doubt that they are neither the government or the Institution ....
خدا کے عاشق تو ہيں ہزاروں ، بنوں ميں پھرتے ہيں مارے مارے
ميں اس کا بندہ بنوں گا جس کو خدا کے بندوں سے پيار ہو گا

Khuda Ke Ashiq To Hain Hazaron, Bannu Mein Phirte Hain Mare Mare
Mein Uss Ka Banda Bano Ga Jis Ko Khuda Ke Bandon Se Pyar Ho Ga

There are thousands of God’s Lovers, who are roaming in the wilderness
I shall adore the one who will be the lover of God’s people
Ab samajhney samjhaney ko reh he kya giya hai ....
phir bhi kuch mistake toh meri bhi hogi ...i have saying that i will do that from next year ...for a lot of life and better living things ...and yet when the times comes ...i tries to keep the things as it is ....i believe i am in the second year of that next year so often repeated cliche' ....Ha HA !

OMG ! it is already an hour passed ...nearly 8 : 00 am ...it should have been my second hour of sleep ....ing ....so now i will have to have a fresh start ...and will probably sleep till zuhr or 2:00 pm ...which ever comes first ...

8:00 am Break ( 2173 words)

3:50 pm Good After Noon !
yes as expected i woke up at 2:00 pm on the dot ...missed the Sunday Brunch and the Facebook meetup ... So after Waking up and getting out of the Bed ...instead of getting back to life ...lied down in the other room and watched Mr Accountability advisor's media Tea ...at PID
He is so desperate to be sued in London ...says everytime he wants to go to london ....So when did i gave up that idea ...any idea ...? NO ! okay
anyways ...he was very relaxed today and was not joined by the bosses ...maybe it was the reason ....definitely deal ho gaie hai ....their tone is very mellow down ...just waiting for one of my mistakes .....so i can blame my self for a year or two ....
Anyways ...so after watching this ...i had tea and chit chat with the siblings .....one on one ...got updates ...new gups ...things like that ....the brunch i missed and the leftovers ....etc etc ....
So after that ...i checked the sindh police ....at the gate ...they were getting ready to go with saein ...and now we only have the Crazy neigbours heavily Armed Guard ...gargling after a late lunch ....

Anyways ...i had a bath at 3:30 pm ....man i had a cold bath at 5:30 am also today ....feels like a dead soldiers ' father ...
Anyways ...after that i prayed Zuhr 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!

Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!


Usually i recite and read the Quran i am trying to finish for Papa( May his soul rest in peace in janna Amen ! ) 's Death anniversary soon But today i was already behind the schedule so i came here and re started this my the Sunday Blog # 173 ( Hundred and seventy three ) .

Burn It All Down
I remember how I use to worship
and said that nothing else could have my love
I would dance before my king and daily I would sing of your goodness and your mercy
My intentions have been pure, but I've strayed
and my passion for your heart has been displace
Bring me back to where I first believed in your light
Lord I'm sorry for what I've become
()
Burn it all down and leave only you
Let nothing stand in the place of your truth
All that we've made and buildings we've raised
All that's in vain you can take it away and leave only you, leave only you
If my ambition blocks the path where you lead
and if my drive directs my heart from destiny
Lord if I ever lose my way and my own desire over take me with your holy fire
()
Burn it all down but leave only you and let nothing stand in the place of your truth
All that we've made and buildings we've raised
All that's in vain Lord you can take it all away and leave only you
Have mercy on me oh God with your unfailing love
show me compassion and wipe out my sin
and purify me again
()
Burn it all down leave only you
I'll let nothing stand in the place of your truth
Burn it all down and leave only you
let nothing stand in the place of your truth
All that we've made and buildings we've raised
All that's in vain you can take it all away
Burn it all down but leave only you and let nothing stand in the place of your truth
All that we've made and builds we've raised
All that's in vain take it away
All that we've made and builds we've raised
All that's in vain take it away leave only you
leave only you

6:09 pm Break ( 3514 words)

Sun 25th Ziqad 1440H
32°C 
9:38 pm Good Evening ! 
Had a really great time ...during the break ...first i went to the mosque then to BBQ and market for breakfast and stuff shopping ....i think i got everything everybody wanted ...so now i wont feel guilty for not going to the market ...all week ...even though if the weather remained this cool and awesome ...i will go out everyday maybe twice a day ....and since i am not at all worried of falling ill on Bakra eid ...i can even go to the mosque daily ...plus i will get to see the farm anim als on the way ...did not see the animals on the way ...in the neighbourhood but the sound is coming from across the wall ...not sure if they have brought the animal or just play ing the sound ...No matter what but karachi the most dangerous city in the world will be in a mess this Bakra eid ...no doubt as the political mess increases . And if it rained like they are predicting then the troubles will be multiplied ....So Help us God the All Mighty Allah Amen ! 

My dinner tonight.....
LOL

I am not sure if every body understand why i did an LOL after the pictures ....the movie i watched this week ....yes thats the one ... Amore piombo e furore ....there was a dialogue in it ..." if the gentlemen in staying for dinner then go kill a chicken ...." LOL

13 hundred truck loads are believed to have arrived for the eid sacrifice ...and a similar quantity more may be brought from local farms at different places and markets plus the Super Markets are also offering to sacrifice and deliver your share of the meat ....plus the online and off shore sacrifices people book ....and what it all comes down to is that most people will be eating chicken and food prepared with chicken ....No mutton no beef .....So how can we claim to be following the will of God the All Mighty Allah Amen ! ....


Every year ...before the Bakra Eid we debate the issue a lot ... .who should and who should not ....as a child i used to love it and helped my dearly departed parents (May their souls rest in peace in janna Amen !)  all day long ....in whatever way the help was needed ...then when they got old and my dear brother started doing it ....for them ...i still remained available ...then the parents passed away and i still remained available ....And i still have no objection ....but the prices have gone insane ...ly high ...they are beyond reason ....some do argue that the quality of these animals cannot be compared with those that we eat all year ...still it is mutton or beef ...it cannot be a lion's share ....LOL
So how can i buy a ten to fifteen kg animal for fifty thousand rupees ...that would be around three to five thousand rupees per Kg ....am i insane .....?
we need to do something about it ....

And i am sure the FBR must be thinking day and night to bring those who buy and sell such expensive animals , into the tax net ....What if they are collecting the data right now or doing the survey ....tracking the animals ...or the kurashi saab 's kids ....or collecting the data of the hides and offals ...
I think that qurbani should be done like secret ballot ....no body especially neighbours should have any idea about our sacrifice or the price of animals ....and when and where we bought it ...what if they reported it ....already ....and the NAB gets a go ahead ....
Be careful friends ....US of A and trump and her daughter loves You ....like they do ....LOL

10: 37 pm Break ( 4140 words)

11:25 pm Okay the is almost coming to an end ....for this my the Sudnay Blog # 173 ( hundred and seventy three )  ...it was one of the fun Blog ....i really had fun doing it ....don't know why but my mood has been really great the whole week ...the weather also got infected by my mood ....and the temperature is going down very fast ...its thirty two here in this room by the kitchen ...but outside it is even cooler ....So anyways ...i hope karachi the most dangerous city in the world survives the thunderous stormy rains predicted ...a few hours a go the sky was starry but now it is turning cloudy again ....Ya Allah Reham !
Well i am sure that with the Animals comes the ...بلائیں the Balaaein ...

So i will pray that everybody stay safe ....but if you have seen as many horror movies as i have you will know that my prayers cannot save everybody ....

the best thing i did this week was to finally learn the Use of Mobile Hotspot tethering app

Share a mobile connection by tethering or hotspot on Android. You can use your Android phone's mobile data to connect another phone, tablet, or computer to the internet. Sharing a connection this way is called tetheringor using a hotspot.

it was great ...i took a 500 MB houly bundle ...and used the other mobile  ...unfortunately i got carried away and lined three four movies to download on the youtube and lost track of the MBs ....so some twenty minutes before the hour ...the hotspot tethering app mobile started ringing with messages ...i ignored ...and yo ...it turns out that i had used about 800 MBs of tethering data ...instead of 500MB ...but instead of charging me and telling me that " AP STANDARD RATE PER DATA USE KAR RAHE HAIN "  they did the F---


So anyways ...the time is up ...i will be very careful next time ....at least its working ....

okay so it time to go ....enjoy this song video from the top ten albums this week ....
Be Good ! and pray for me and the water ....

Allah Hafiz !

Details by Sarah Reeves (Official Lyric Video)

You drew the lines of my fingerprints
I'm the design, You're the artisan
You wrote the days of my destiny
And on every page reads Your love for me

[Chorus]
You know me better than I know myself
Your ways are higher than anything else
You have the plan far beyond all my wildest dreams
Just like You paint the fiery skies
You chose the color of my eyes
From the start until the end of time
You're in the details, You're in the details

[Verse 2]
You map the road of my traveling
You never let go, no, You're here with me
In every high, low and in between
You are my one and only consistency

[Chorus]
You know me better than I know myself
Your ways are higher than anything else
You have the plan far beyond all my wildest dreams
Just like You paint the fiery skies
You chose the color of my eyes
From the start until the end of time
You're in the details, You're in the details

[Post-Chorus]
You're in, You're in, You're in
You're in the details, details, details
You're in the details

[Chorus]
You know me better than I know myself
Your ways are higher than anything else
You have the plan far beyond all my wildest
All my wildest, all my wildest dreams

[Verse 3]
You set the moon to pull the tide
You speak and move this heart of mine
From the start until the end of time
You're in the details, You're in the details
