Keep the City Green and Jammed

Since the last few weeks I've been noticing an unusual traffic congestion between Ayesha Bawani School and Regent Plaza - shortly ahead I find a water tanker in the right most lane causing the traffic to divert into the remaining two lanes. What it was doing there is watering the green plants on the footpath to keep the city green. The speed of the tanker was not more than 2.5 km/h.

Its 10:30 AM, its rush hour and they are caring well enough to focus on the plants rather than on the traffic problem. I agree that this is the best time to water the plants (photosynthetically), but nothing will change if they do it after 11:30. The traffic at that time is a bit lighter.

I appreciate how much they are doing for the city, but at the same time, I feel sad for how less brains are being used while doing anything around here...

Help an Orphan Girl Get Married

Hello All, Here is the complete situation. In my last email I explained the situation of an orphan girl getting married and Rs. 80,000 required for her marriage. I am very thankfull for the possitive replies I get from many of you. In last Ramadan I told you all about a fruit seller that he is in a loan and with all your supprt 70% of his loan is now paid off. The remaining amount is Rs. 40,000. So a total of Rs. 1,20,000 is required for both above mentioned things, and a good collection have been done too. Please help from even Rs. 100 in this good work as it will be repaid to us from Allah with a great deal of profit in this life and the next life. Thanks for the support. Again I assure you all that I know these people personally and will handover the money to them with my own hands under full responsibility that your money will be used for the task I have mentioned. I know there are a lot of frauds but I have personally researched about these people. There a lot ...

Get The ROLL INN Rollin'

The only place in Karachi -in my opinion at least- to get the best chicken cheese rolls is ROLL INN -boat basin, Clifton. This place is so popular, and probably the rolls so delicious that their rolls have become the center of attraction, or more accurately speaking -have literally blinded the curtomers of any other drawbacks in the place! I bumped into a boy from my own neighborhood back in Gulshan-e-Iqbal. I asked him what are you doing here with your buddies, he replied that he was there to eat the rolls! I've gathered some pictures of the place while I was there myself waiting for the "waiter". Finally the waiter arrives and hands over the menu, after deciding what to eat me and my friends moved to the drinks section, guess what! they had "Letter" bottles of soft drinks being printed on the menu! Guess they have put a lot of thought when having those menus printed! Let me explain the magic of these super rolls! This place is so damn small that it can barely ...
