An Indian who moved to Pakistan
An Indian who moved to Pakistan The Express Tribune Blog This blog post is a response to an article published in The Express Tribune by Dr Pervez Hoodbhoy titled:“Deepening the Pakistan-India divide.” Hence I address this to him.

Anyway, this is my first real post on this blog. Let’s see what happens.

Inspiri: I saw my life branching out before me... →
I saw my life branching out before me like the green fig tree in the story. From the tip of every branch, like a fat purple fig, a wonderful future beckoned and winked. One fig was a husband and a happy home and children, and another fig was a famous poet and another fig was a brilliant professor,…

In praise of tardiness →
bobulate: A short story on the value of tardiness: One day in 1939, Berkeley doctoral candidate George Dantzig arrived late for a statistics class taught by Jerzy Neyman. He copied down the two problems on the blackboard and turned them in a few days later, apologizing for the delay — he’d found them unusually difficult.
