Holy Cow!

Sunday, December 21st, 2008

Before Eid-ul-Azha, i.e. Bakra-Eid, there suddenly spread news in the Pathan section of Banaras colony that the Mahajirs were running towards them.

Fearing a clash, the Pathans closed their doors and sat down with guns on their roofs. But nothing happened.

Later on, when it was inquired from the Mahajirs as to why they had been running towards the Pathans, they replied:

وہ تو ہماری گائے بھاگ گئی تھی۔ ہم اس کا پیچھا کر رہے تھے۔

Brain Teasers

Friday, December 12th, 2008

You guys work on these brain teasers while I work on tweaking my blogs.

  1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven’t eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?
  2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?
  3. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?
  4. This is an unusual paragraph. I’m curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out.
