The past two days had been very quiet in my life but not in Karachi , things happened , a well known political / religious figure Alama Turabi was killed in a bomb blast , so his party has called for strike , there was a long queue outside petrol pumps ( gas pumps for americans ) today i went out , half the city was close from outside but working behind closed doors , even my bank closed their shutter and letting customers in through back door .
Last night i saw Click , yup we get movies in Pakistan within a week after they are released in US although the quality is never good till the master print is out none the less all my AMerican friends envy me that they spend some $ 6-10 to watch a movie ( $ 3.75 for AMC matinee time ) and i spend the maximum of $1.00 to own it on DVD to watch it again and again and if the luck strikes i get 5 movies on one DVD in Divx format so 20 cents a movie to be watched on my home theatre system but not on a Bravia .
