The Dawn Blog Blog Archive The science of farce BY NADEEM F. PARACHA As a teenager in the early 1980s, I still remember a conversation I overheard between two cops posted just outside my grandfather’s office. It was in Punjabi and went something like this: First cop: “Pakistan is...

Royalty is known for bacchanalia. Nothing new here - they have money and power. Have to thank the Arabs and Turks for the concept of Harems anyway.

Btw, a few Zimbabwean players went into Aussie Leagues and they even qualify to play for Australia now. Murray Goodwin is one example. Given Australia'a current form, I think he may well be picked!
