Now some people were taken aback by the happenings at the meeting about the Corridor route. Sadly the Karachi tragedy coincided. But when an MQM leader suggested rushing to Karachi, Mian sb suggested, in return, ‘after lunch’. And everybody knows how meticulous he is about the menu. There was soup, BBQ, chicken curry, seekh kabab, even kulfa. And did you see how the media had a field day, capturing the chewing and slurping on tape? The media managers couldn’t do much, of course, since Pervez Rasheed and Irfan Siddiqui were enjoying the chow themselves. Don’t know about the road to the Corridor, but the road to the stomach isn’t changing anytime soon.

Now Reham bhabhi gets to know the world on the other side of the media. It’s not what you say sometimes that lands you in a tough spot. It’s just how you say it that can stir the hornet’s nest. And she was just trying to promote a positive and proactive attitude in women when she said they shouldn’t whine. But that got the whole hornet’s nest to whine, didn’t it? Wanna bet she’ll be more diplomatic next time?
