So the Fairy tale turned to a badtime story .

The utopian Washington DC turned into a dystopian city with guns and soldiers everywhere ...





First lady melania was taken away by force and Lady GaGa sang in her place . As bad ugly witches drank the Corona vaccines and celebrate

Tears rolled down 😭

Before leaving the Whitehouse , the good and caring old President Trump gave a Bold Presidential Pardon to nearly one hundred and forty three innocent US citizens serving long jail sentences due to the corrupt judicial system and political system.

Princes Jerusalem and her husband jared were not mentioned by either side of aisle . So it is still unclear where would they be debriefed . If I were you i would definitely sentence them for life to live in Jerusalem. So they especially Mr jared could see the fruits and vegetables stews from closed range . Hard labor for the meddling and eventually causing a full second term to the American people . And a peaceful transition in the Washington DC .







Okay before we move forward...

I know everybody is wondering and interested to know ....

What happens if the vice president dies while in office?

The president nominates a new vice president who then must be confirmed by a majority vote in both chambers of Congress.



🤓




1:31 am So the question that comes to my non rigged Constitutional mind is ....

Can the President choose a first lady as the Vice President when and if the Running mate Vice President falls short in office and if he can ....,

Who would be the first lady and

Who would be the second ...

       ❓

Okay first of all let me confess that the cable I have  does not show fox news or fox and friends ...I only have access to Fake News CNN , BBC , Bloomberg and Aljazeera News for the breaking and live News coverage .

So anyways first they told me repeatedly that the President elect belongs to  Washington DC he is one of them  and then they showed that he desends from a plane at some base who cares what base as long as it is a us base inside us and has the capability to ensure safe and healthy landings of the civilian personnel and almost there elected politicians and future Whitehouse inmates .

So the President elect and his long time wife , were shown on the American news channels and a few local Urdu language news channels to be arriving for the inauguration ceremony ....very very confusing ...but I was not the only person in this whole wide world to feel confused ...the planners of the inauguration were going through hell.  Trump and Melania were still in the Whitehouse ....so to kill the time ...they organized a special memorial for the 0.4 million US Citizens and servicepersons and immigrants dead by the Corona Pandemic and few by the foreign vaccines . Looks like a vigil to me but believe you me a few years back there was a vigil at the Whitehouse Grammer school and it had more people than this under strict martial law condition.

Few hours later before the noon ...once again ...the chief justice of the supreme Court of the United States of America took the oath of the President elect a full eleven minutes early .

There was a Complete jam on the stage ... people sat there guessing as to what happens next ...

Nothing happened ....somebody stopped the host announcer from welcoming the President Who had taken oath eleven minutes early to the podium as the forty Sixth President of the United States of America.






If it had been a Pakistani Movie ...the real Mr President Trump could have challenged and Stopped the Chief justice of the supreme  Court of the United State

Or he could have called both  fake 

Leading to a free for all and both President having a duel with sword .

But Force took care of it already they transported the former President to the Florida and no two were ever in the same state at that very weak moment .






So we have an oldest New President of the United States of America 🦅

Falling asleep 😴










morning tweet


Sun 10th JamadiUsSani 1442H
23°C
10:10 am Good Morning !
Fall asleep 😴
Missed Fajr 😭
Missed the last Sunday Winter walk and Breakfast .
No sign of Brunch ☹️
Back to Sunday Blogging with a cup of tea ☕ https://t.co/yb1BKO85WS
























What are two colored roses called?
'Cherry Parfait' is a floribunda rose that has a two-tone petal color scheme with white petals edged with red (red is the dominant color from a distance).
Not sure what a yellow and red called or means
Anyways here they are generally called the English rose as compared to the Desi rose that is very Red and has a sweet smell it is also very fragile and the petals fall apart very easily there for it's uses are very spiritual in our culture .
Rose 🌹 no matter what kind is very difficult to grow in the ever changing Karachi ☠️ climate and unpredictable weather .
I am already afraid what will I do when the Lenten sand storm hits us or the dry windless heatwave starts . Thanks to the unjust water supply and looting by the respected neighbors we have only enough water most of the year ...for couple of years I was very relaxed during water crisis days and weeks ...but now I will probably have to buy bottled water for the rose 🌹plants ...and keep them in the kitchen 🤔



Thanks to the sleep 😴 most of the night  I am about five hundred to a thousand words short at the moment but if I had no electricity , charging issues or distractions from chaapaz ...I am pretty sure I will reach the three thousand words target for this my the Sunday Blog № 251 ( Two Hundred and fifty one) long before midnight .
So help you God the All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏


The funny thing is that whenever you get relaxed hearing of the jams , shutdown , lockdown and transportation strikes  in the city or towns in the city  on the news media ...the very same day you are surprised . Probably because of the beefed up security or the beef . Anyways this past week and especially the weekend  traffic jams all across the city and towns in the city remained in the news most because of the high alert security due to the Washington DC lockdown ..we even have a colourful fireworks 🎆🎇 display in the neighborhood as the New President in the United State of America 🇺🇸 finished his Blah blah 😷 speech in the Washington DC jointly sponsored by  MMM ( media,Mulla' and ...)  Town police and poors and pardesi wandering friars were fed generously .

Talking of friars and Flowers the rotoract clubs of Karachi ☠️, the most dangerous city in the world,
Organized a A first Marigold show at Frere hall garden this inauguration weekend ...today is the last day  our neighborhood is sleeping very relaxed , Quiet and Peaceful 😊


















Okay the time is up ....my midnight to noon data will be off after noon so I will only update offline as well as enjoy my Sunday ...while you guys continue to suffer in your miserable lives .

The word count is still about two hundred words short of the fifteen hundred words half way mark for this my the Sunday Blog № 251 ( Two Hundred and fifty one) .
Anyways who cares as long as there is democracy in Russia




11:58 am Break ( 1366 words)

3:11 pm So I had a really great afternoon .
First I enjoyed the absolutely motionless street . The builder is all set to lay the first floor roof . Iron rods are being sliced on the road ...some neighbors have flooded the road with excessive water to make it soft and break when iron rods are cut ...making pot holes ...later it will collect muddy water and then it will be used to spray on the poor passerby ...by fast cars and motorcycles ...I don't know what this game is called or how it is controlled. I also don't know from where it is played ...all I know is that SOMETHING is WATCHING Me ....

Don't care at all ...only when I used to go to the mosque / masjid for namaz prayers ..I used to be very careful not to get sprayed by the passing vehicle or step in a pot hole saving myself from it . Now when I go out on foot ...I usually enjoy when passing by a fully loaded pot hole manufactured by the local builder . Most of the time I slowed down to see if there is a vehicle on tract from front or back . Usually there is even on a deserted road or street ...but for some odd reason this mud slinging never happens with me ...most of the stains on my shirts are from the kitchen . Or my own sweat .
I don't understand the more carefully I fry something ...the jumpy the oil gets ...still I don't get afraid of pan frying ...very rarely I do the deep frying .

So Anyways ,
I had a bath
And prayed 🛐 Fajr qaza
And Zuhr prayer 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!

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!

There was still no sign of a lunch or the kitchen activity so I put on my mask and went for a walk in the sun . Got takeaway and ran for home . My siblings were unaware of my being gone out so they were quite pleased to see the food all ready and unpacked set on the table ...before 2:00 pm on a Sunday afternoon . So we had lunch and the first Facebook Meetup . The leftovers will be up for grabs so I guess none of us will have to worry about the next meal too.



























So you know me ...after over eating ...I feel sleepy 😴 ...for some odd reasons these days I am not having a food coma ...I usually get to write three hundred words before I fall asleep 😴 completely
So in the past hour and a half I have done about five hundred words and I am very close to the two thousand words mark on the words counter for this my the Sunday Blog № 251 ( Two Hundred and fifty one).
Very soon the Asr Azan will start . But if I don't want to miss it by falling asleep 😴then i must get up and grab a cup of tea ☕

Battery is also too low and needs charging ...so here I take a prayer 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!

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!

4:39 pm Break


Sun 11th JamadiUsSani1442H

23°C

6:39 pm Good Evening ! 

Okay believe it or not ...I survived falling asleep 😴 

Had tea without milk then I lie down in bed ...got up did wazu and prayed 🛐 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!




Then I waited for the Maghrib Azan....there was nothing to watch on the street ..very quiet and deserted ... chatted ... discussed politics mostly .

After Azan ... despite discussing the Pakistani Presidential Politics , i was certain that my wazu was intact ... checked the headlines ...mAh e Mir ( 2016) not Russian is on cable home Cinema in HD ...


Turned off put down the remote and spread the Prayer 🛐 mat for maghrib prayer 🛐 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!



Today the published part of this my the Sunday Blog № 251 ( Two Hundred and fifty one) , has some technical HTML code issues of overlapping and border crossing. It is mostly readable and half of the text and media is in background color ...which makes me think that I should change blog theme ...it's been the same for so long .  


Coming back to the short clip of the not Russian Mah-e-Mir ( 2016) movie on cable ...if somebody put me on the shot and asked for a favorite verse ...what would I write ....? 


Obviously , you cannot write or recite a verse from everybody has heard on radio , tv or CD ( a primative mode of storage and play of audio and video files) 


Especially from the poems or ghazals that has been sung by maestros and pop artists . Obviously you cannot write the verse ( Sher) that has been made a clipart or printed on a truck or rickshaws not even if it is your own . Be very careful the verse ( Sher) should not be very long or asymmetrical ...avoid   foreign language verses ...also avoid the verse you are very unsure ...people are going to Google it and may find it a little different from your quote .

And last but not the least ...never write or recite an immoral verse (Sher) in reply to a request not even if you are disturbed or provoked . Keep calm or excuse yourself gently 😉


My favorite verse for autograph is ...

رازِہستی راز ہے جب تک کوئی محرم نہ ہو
کھل گيا  جس دم تو محرم کے سوا  کچھ بھی نہيں

Raaz-e-Hasti raaz hai jab Tak koi mehram na ho 


Khul Gaya jis daam toh mehram Kay siwa kuch bhi nahein . 


552 words in one hour ....awesome ! 


Isha Azan has started in town so I better take a prayer 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!



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!


7:40 pm Break 


9:31 pm okay done ! 



Finally I remember that the verse ( Sher) is from a poem by Iqbal . 


زندگی انساں کی اک دم کے سوا کچھ بھی نہيں

زندگی انساں کی  اک دم کے سوا کچھ بھی نہيں
دم ہوا کی موج ہے ،  رَم کے سِوا  کچھ بھی نہيں
گل تَبَسُّم کہہ رہا  تھا  زندگانی  کو  مگر
شمع بولی ،  گِریہء غم کے سِوا  کچھ بھی نہيں
رازِہستی راز ہے جب تک کوئی محرم نہ ہو
کھل گيا  جس دم تو محرم کے سوا  کچھ بھی نہيں
زائرانِ کعبہ سے اقبال  يہ  پوچھے کوئی
کياحرم کا تحفہ زمزم کے سوا  کچھ بھی نہيں 

 


 

دم: سانس _  رَم: بھاگنا، بھاگ اٹھنا _  تَبَسُّم: مسکرانے کی حالت _   گِریہء غم: دکھ درد کا رونا _ رازِہستی: زندگی کا بھید، زندگی کیا ہے ؟  محرم: واقف حال _ کھل گيا: ظاہر ہو گیا _  دم: پل، وقت، گھڑی _   زائرانِ: زائر کی جمع، زیارت کرنے والے _ حرم: کعبہ _  زمزم: آبِ زم زم


 

 

Transliteration

 

 

Zindagi Insan Ki Ek Dam Ke Sawa Kuch Bhi Nahin
Dam Hawa Ki Mouj Hai, Ram Ke Siwa Kuch Bhi Nahin


Gul Tabassum Keh Raha Tha Zindagaani Ko Magar
Shama Boli, Girya-e-Gham Ke Siwa Kuch Bhi Nahin


Raaz-e-Hasti Raaz Hai Jab Tak Koi Mehram Na Ho
Khul Gya Jis Dam To Mehram Ke Siwa Kuch Bhi Nahin


Zaeeran-e-Kaaba Se Iqbal Ye Puche Koi

       Kya Haram Ka Tohfa Zamzam Ke Siwa Kuch Bhi NahinKya

Funny isn't it ..when we are very young in school we talk and write about people with great respect ...like shair e mashriq ...Hazrat Allama Iqbal or Doctor Muhammad Iqbal or Sir Muhammad Iqbal ...and when we grow up reach the college and University or beyond ...we say This verse or poem is by Iqbal or Allama ...Thank God the All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏

That i never completed my LLM or I would be forced to say ...

By A poet or An Urdu Poet ..

 🤓



So , instead of a formal dinner we had a Facebook Meetup and I refused to eat but my dear elder sister keep asking me so finally I said okay give me a boiled potato🥔 and she slided a piece of chicken as well in the plate ...I am not sure what happened there at the table but we spend almost an hour  and discussed so many different topics and I learned a very sad news ..not sure how I missed it ...Larry king CNN they say died of Covid-19 Corona Pandemic


This week I also learned about my  very old and Only British Facebook friend . She was in NHS care for many years . RIP 

😭

So this week was a double header ....


😭😭


10:03 pm Two hours left 

So the test match is about to begin here in the National Stadium Karachi ☠️ the most dangerous city in the world , 

Hopefully the traffic woes will ease once the event goes underway ...it is really sad that my prayers for the South African team were not heard ...none of the White or Brown team member got infected by  Covid-19 Corona Pandemic virus ...they must be very healthy and fit and will easily win the series . 

The Satta mafia failed miserably in Sam daam dand bhed strategy during the pre- nup... So we can't expect an upset . But still it will be a fun week ahead as old habits die hard 😉 


Sania Mirza must be out of form being a house wife and a mother ...how else did she fall to the Corona virus . 


Anyways hope she get well soon . And not die . 


Few Proud Pakistani are about to become filthy rich all thanks to the black marketing of the free gift Corona virus Vaccines being dumped by China and WHO and Bill And Malinda Gates foundation and multiple other gracious donors . 

So the question is how much investment is safe . And what should be the asking price from a dying person and his family ? 


I will probably have answers to these questions very soon ..but should I publish them for free in one of my regular Sunday Blogs ...or should I have a hard copy printed and sold by the black marketers ...



And talking of Black ...did you see Zardari in the hot seat half an hour ago on or maybe all evening on every f@#$_&- News Channel on the Cable ...he was absolutely dead last week on the court date . And today we see a miracle of the China Virus Vaccine 


Praiseth the Lord All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏. 


10:45 pm Break ! 


11:40 pm okay the breaking news is that the water board gave water and shut the gutter ...you know what it means ...they want us to drown in our own @#$& 😎



So the time is up ...Thank God the All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏 

So here I will insert the movies of the week ! 



This is it ...the list should have been longer but there were no good movies most of the I was free and then we also had electric power shutdown for long hours ...

Anyways . 


So the Song video I chose today is actually from the list of the chosen ones last week ..at last moment I changed my mind and saved it for after the inauguration Sunday so here it is Georgia Peaches ...the best 


Okay then this is where I end this my the Sunday Blog № 251 ( Two Hundred and fifty one) . Somebody is making tea ☕ in the kitchen so first I will take a ten minutes break at midnight have tea and then I will try to fix this my the Sunday Blog № 251 ( Two Hundred and fifty one )  and when I am finished doing that I will if I did not fall asleep 😴 have supper . so Good bye stay safe and enjoy the departing winter .



All the best ! 


God Bless America 🙏 


Allah Hafiz ! 


Georgia Peaches
Song by Lauren Alaina
Way beyond the city lights
Lots of cowboy's paradise
Honeysuckle on the vine
Growin' up on Southern time ooh
Love to dance and we love to flirt
Ain't afraid of a little dirt
We ain't late for Sunday church
Mama raised us not to curse
Our shorts' a little shorter 'cause the sun's a little hotter
Sippin' lemonade, while we're playin' in the water
Oh woah woah oh woah woah
Ain't nothin' sweeter than us Georgia Peaches
Oh woah woah oh woah
There's a reason why the boys pick the Georgia Peaches
We grow where the grass is green
We got home grown in our genes
We love country everything
From Alan Jackson to Aldean
Our drawl will drive you crazy
When we wink and call you baby
You don't stand a chance
Once you seen a southern lady
Oh woah woah oh woah woah
Ain't nothin' sweeter than us Georgia Peaches
Oh woah woah oh woah
There's a reason why the boys pick the Georgia Peaches
Oh ain't nothin sweeter
It don't matter where you're from come on in and have some fun
We're gonna treat you like you're one of us, (yeah) yeah
Oh woah woah oh woah woah
Ain't nothin' sweeter than Georgia Peaches
Oh woah woah oh woah
There's a reason why the boys pick... whoo
Oh oh oh oh oh
{Yeah ain't nothin' sweeter then Georgia Peaches}
Oh oh oh oh oh
Theres a reason why the boys pick
Ain't nothin' sweeter...
Ain't nothin' sweeter
Ain't nothin' sweeter
(Georgia Peaches)
Georgia Peaches
