Nehru Bhai and Bossman Riff both have wicked thoughts in their minds.

Anyway, I am easing up posting at political. Dem banns there are always talking about roti and baigan choka every day. Same old, same old.

PPP this and PNC that day in and day out, it gets boring after a while. Time to liven up sports, social, and religious.
