Harry Potter The Great Wizard-and security???


This baffles me. Harry Potter the great wizard needs security and guards??????? Well its true. Trucks carrying the books to retail stores were guarded as though they were carrying some diplomat! I've heard that one publishing company has even filed suits against two middlemen or retailers for violating the rules. Man, they spent over 10 MILLION pounds just for guarding this book!! Man, only if I had that money!




Rowling even once lashed out at NYT for NYT had published a kinda review of HP 7. Rowling was apparently enraged at NYT for spoiling the ultimate Harry Potter experience!




With the millions of fans begging Rowling to continue Harry Potter, Rowling seems to have gotten into confusion: What TO DO!!! After all, Arthur Conan Doyle brought back Holmes after immense pressure from the fans. Why should Rowling not??

Keep it green! But what about them?


Hey guys, listen. You must have heard about the climate change thingy which is going on, have not you?? The G-8 summit, which was held between June6-8 in Germany was a platform, to discuss, among other things, the future of the climate of the World. Many proposals were put forward so as to how to control the climate.


But you see, these 13 men and women alone cannot do anything. It is up to you and me and the general public to take measures. These 13 people will not tell you off whenever you throw garbage on the street instead of the trash can. They cannot. But we people also have brains. It is common sense that throwing garbage around is baaad. But some people simply cannot follow this.I wonder why?



Here's a handy dandy link on the subject:
Can We Change the Climate? Visit it!


But, there's another side to this also. These advanced countries were once developing countries. They used to pollute the environment incessantly with their industries without any concern for global warming or climate change. They flourished this way. But now, do not the developing countries like Pakistan and India and several African nations have the right to do what the developed countries had done? Do not the Third World countries have a right to develop in the way these countries did?? Why are the developed countries putting pressure on poorer countries to curb global warming and use expensive alternative means of energy?? You know, this really baffles me!

Yo people! Cool avatar huh??

Hey everybody! Yoooo!!! This goes out "especially" to those in ma beautiful home city, Karachi!! Karachi Rockks!


Enough promotion now. Welcome everybody to my newly create (we)blog . I want to ask you somethin. Is it weblog or simply blog. Weblog seems more professional, more "geeky", doesn't it? Blog seems just yours and my type: The "Don't care and just chill and be cool" attitude. Yeah man, Attitude!


Hey guys, what do you think of ma avatar(not the Nick show!). Isn't it cool. Who can guess that it's the actual yin-yang(what the ***(3 LETTERS) is it, anyway?) symbol(it was sideways, actually) which i manhandled and turned it into this piece 'o' crap?? That's enough crappin' around fer today, I think


So long folks!

The sorrowful (political) scenario of my country

You know what?? The political scenario of my country, Pakistan, baffles me. The Lal Masjeed(sic) fiasco has bad-mouthed my country almost everywhere. This has somewhat opened the reality of Pakistanis to the world. "Pakistani" and, yeah, especially "Muslim" terrorists do their jobs and we do nothing than riot on the streets and shout and burn cars and destroy the property of the innocent.This way we bad-mouth our selves even more! But this trend is a kind of inherited one. People before us used to do the same and people after them(meaning to say "us") are doing the same. I wonder, do not they realize that they themselves are doing the wrong thing and that hurting others and their property is against Islam?? And aren't they supposed to be true and righteous Muslims.


Yeah but its not their fault too. You see quite a few Pakistanis are uneducated. They, in a way cannot distinguish between what is wrong and what is right. They, are following the ways of the people before them, most of whom also and unfortunately, were uneducated! So this chain continues and hopefully will not continue. Let's see if times change!
