A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai
For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."
The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

As an intellectual with a big ego, as in the best in the world, I tip my hat off to those Jews Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg and the whole cast of the movie "This is the End"." screenplay, directing, acting, and animation was respectful and wizardly executed
Confederations Cup final, Brazil vs Spain to start in under an hour.
I hope predict Brazil will win.

Have yet to be proven wrong with a football prediction.
Brazil was by far the better team and deserved the win.

Today at work a random Sikh fortune teller came by.
He gave me my fortune even though I never asked for it.
It was all your typical stuff until he comes up with "and two girls really like you and you like them but you will have to disappoint one of them"....lol that's news to me.
He then desperately offered palm readings to me and the other customers until I told him to leave the premises.
He even told me I look Indian....I don't even...

That's actually not a bad idea. It would be interesting to see if he could come up with an accurate prediction just by looking at the scan of a palm.
Though I personally think fortune telling, astrology & all other related stuff is complete nonsense.
Anyone know any good films to watch in the cinema? I want to take my brother before Ramadan starts.
