"The circle of life has been broken."
"What circle of life? Did someone die?"
"Not quite one individual but the circle of life of the current government."
"The numbers show that PML-N can bull doze any move against it in parliament; outside parliament is another matter."
"Hey, the dharna is over and done with if that's what you are referring to? Besides one can't keep saying thank you, thank you for ever... it's like the Germans born after Hitler was killed - they don't know why they must continue to say sorry for that period in their history."
"I was referring to the proposed PIA privatisation, the proposed sale of PSM, the LNG import which would inject the fuel into the Southern pipeline for onward transmission to Punjab, which incidentally is creating concerns in Sindh as the province where the domestic gas is produced is concerned that its consumers may have to pay a higher price with the injection of the imported gas and with no Council of Common Interest meeting for the past nine months the PML-N democrats are violating the constitution and..."

"Who?"
"The PPP co-chairman always refers to the IDA..."
"Industrial Development Agency?"
"No, Ishaq Dar's Affidavit and then there are those who may have manipulated the system to ensure their electoral victory and many names come to mind..."
"Rigging is different from manipulation?"
"Indeed, it is manipulation is akin to tax loopholes and that isn't illegal; so Khan sahib put that in your pipe and smoke it."
"I have it on authority he is smoking though perhaps not quie that!"
