Silence of the grave


The philosophy that seems to be guiding the actions of the Invisible Soldiers Inc in its actions against GEO TV is that the channel has gotten “too big for its boots”. This sentence comes back again and again like a boomerang to all who seek to intercede with The Boys to prevent the crippling of a media group that employs 8000 people directly and 100,000 indirectly. Pakistan is already a paranoid, dark and depressing place. Snuffing out the remaining lights will produce a silence of the grave.

The don’s don


A famous seth’s progeny had a problem with their elder. Having made a ton of dosh smuggling precious metals across countries, he believed in keeping all his assets to himself. Although well into adulthood, the progeny never got more than a generous expense account. Recently, they banded together and went to see the seth’s don. Both had been patronised by Tyrant Terry Thomas of the 1980s and knew each other’s secrets. The don persuaded the seth to fork out lest some dirty linen be washed in public.

Not invited


We hear a book on General Bobby’s illustrious bro is about to be launched. We’ve also heard that amongst those who won’t be invited to the launch are Canny, the guy who ratted on Mush and QB.
