File under: Govt of Pakistan

#1 Not to rain on this happy parade of paranoia, but yesterday's Burg article said the Beeb was quoting an unnamed "authoritative Pak source". Which makes it less a parade and more of a circle jerk, I guess.

There is prolly a Pakisourcesaurus joke in there somewhere, but I'm not digging for it.

#3 the ability to believe five impossible things before breakfast

But only five, please.

An unpublished fragment of Remus:
Brer Rabbit larned all six Kalimas!
Dem infants of asphalt
Led him to be hassled
By less pious Moes and Fatimas.

Wikipedia: "M. M. Hasan, An Inspector-General's diary, 1996, p. 70 recounts a case of a man arrested in Pakistan on suspicion of being an Indian spy because he was able to recite all six kalimas, which was deemed unlikely in a real Muslim."

#5 Eventually you develop the ability to believe five impossible things before breakfast.

Unlike the Arab, who can only hold a mere two diametrically impossible ideas in his head at the same time.
