Another Joke

NASA was interviewing professionals they were thinking of sending to Mars.

The touchy part was that only one guy could go and it would be a one-way
trip, the guy not ever returning to Earth.

The interviewer asked the first applicant, an American engineer, how much he
wanted to be paid for going. "One million dollars," the engineer answered.
"And I want to donate it all to my alma mater--Rice University."

The next applicant was a Russian doctor, and the interviewer asked him the
same question. "Two millions dollars," the doctor said. "I want to give a
million to my family and leave the other million for the advancement of
medical research."

The last applicant was a Pakistani Politician. When asked how much money he
wanted, he whispered in the interviewer's ear, "Three million dollars." "Why
so much more than the others?" the interviewer asked. The Pakistani
Politician replied, "You give me three million, I'll give you one million,
I'll keep a million, and we'll send the American engineer."

Joke ... About Beers

There's a big conference of beer producers. At the end of the day, all of the presidents of all beer companies decide to have a drink in a bar.

The president of 'Budweiser' orders a Bud, the president of 'Miller' orders a Miller Lite, Adolph Coors orders a Coors, and the list goes on. Then the waitress asks Arthur Guinness what he wants to drink, and much to everybody's amazement, Mr. Guinness orders a Coke!

"Why don't you order a Guinness?" his colleagues ask.

"Naah. If you guys won't drink beer, than neither will I."

Sardar Ji Jokes

Sardar Gurbachan Singh is appearing for his University final examination which consists of Y/N type questions.

He takes his seat in the examination hall, stares at the question paper for five minutes, and then in a fit of inspiration takes his wallet out, removes a coin and starts tossing the coin and marking the answer sheet - Y for Heads and N for Tails. Within half an hour he is all done whereas the rest of the class is sweating it out.

During the last few minutes, he is seen desperately throwing the coin, swearing and sweating.

The invigilator, alarmed, approaches him and asks what is going on.

"Oye, I finished the exam in half and hour ". "But yaar ", he says, "I am rechecking my answers and am not able to tally them with what I wrote."

POETRY

Na ujar sakain, na sanwar sakhain, kabhi dil dukhao to is terha
na simut sakain, na na bikher sakain, kabhi bhool jao to is terha

Poetry .

jab tera hukum mila tark muhabbat kerdi
dil magar us per woh dharka ke qayamat kerdi...

tujh se kis tarah mein izhar-e-tamanna kerta
lafz soojha to maani ne bagawat kerdi...

mein so samjha tha ke laut aate hain jaane wale
tune jaa ker to judayi meri qismat kerdi...

tujh ko pooja hai ke asnaam parasti ki hai
mein ne wehdat ke mafaheem ki kasrat kerdi...

mujhe ko dushman ke iradon per bhi pyaar aata hai
teri ulfat ne muhabbat meri aadat kerdi...

poochh betha hoon mein tujh se tere kooche ka pata
tere halaat ne kaisi teri soorat kerdi...

Some More Classical Pics of Pakistan (Karachi)

Photograph taken by an unknown photographer in Karachi , c.1900, with a general view along the iron Napier Mole bridge connecting Karachi with Kiamari.

The Empress Market [ Karachi ]

Photograph of Empress Market in Karachi , taken by an unknown photographer, c.1900.

The Empress Market was constructed between 1884 and 1889 and was named to commemorate Queen Victoria, Empress of India . It was designed by James Strachan, the foundations were completed by the English firm of A.J. Attfield, and the building constructed by the local firm of 'Mahoomed Niwan and Dulloo Khejoo'. The building was arranged around a courtyard, 130 ft by 100 ft, with four galleries each 46 ft wide. The galleries provided accommodation for 280 shops and stall keepers; at the time of its construction it was one of seven markets in Karachi.

Sind Arts College [ Karachi ]

Photograph of the D.J. Sind Arts College (now known as the D. J. Government Science College ) of Karachi , taken by an unknown photographer, c.1900, from an album of 46 prints titled ' Karachi Views'.

Designed by James Strachan and considered this architect's greatest achievement, the college was built between 1887 and 1893. Named after the Sindhi philanthropist Dayaram Jethmal, whose two family members contributed towards its cost, the building was constructed in the neoclassical, or ‘Italian architectural style’. A considerable amount of money was spent on the interior of the college; the floors comprised mosaic tiles imported from Belgium and the eight-foot wide main staircase was fitted with ornamental cast-iron work from McFarlane & Company of Glasgow. Karachi, once the capital of Pakistan, is now the capital of Sindh province and the major port and main commercial centre of the country. It was a strategically located small port at a protected natural harbor on the Arabian Sea north-west of the mouth of the Indus, and was developed and expanded by the British when they took over Sindh in the mid-19th century to serve the booming trade from the Punjab and the wheat and cotton regions of the sub-continent.

Karachi City Street View

Trans-Lyari Market [ Karachi ]

At the end of the nineteenth century the Trans-Lyari Quarter of the city was made up of a cluster of poor settlements mostly consisting of reed and mud plastered huts with some more permanent dwellings. At this time one-quarter of the population of Karachi lived in this area across the Lyari River .

Karachi Gymkhana

The British had also developed the concept of gymkhanas or sports-houses which provided facilities for all sorts of sports and games for the colonial population in the sub-continent. The Karachi Gymkhana Club, located on Scandal Point (later Club) Road, was a large Tudor-style building, constructed in 1886.

Bird's eye view Suddar Bazaar [ Karachi ]

The Saddar Bazaar at Karachi followed a typical gridiron plan; all the major north-south streets of the Bazaar were laid out at right angles to Bunder Road, Frere, Somerset and Elphinstone Streets which along with Victoria Road, linked the northern part of the cantonment to the southern part. The area soon developed into the most fashionable part of the city, supplying the needs of both its civilian and military parts.

Part of the town of Karachi ( Sindh ), with mud houses; camels and villagers in foreground. April 1851

Water-colour of Karachi ( Sindh ) by Henry Francis Ainslie (c.1805-1879) , April 1851. Inscribed on the front of the mount in red ink is: 'Sindh, part of the native town of Kurrachee , 1851.'

Originally Karachi was a small village made up of a cluster of fishermen’s huts on the three islands of Manora, Bhit and Baba. Due to it's location at the western end of the Indus delta the town has traditionally served as an important gateway for trade into central Asia . With the development of its harbour it gradually grew into a large city and an important centre of trade and industry.
