"So is The Khan going to repair some punctures."
"One punctured tyre from Nawaz Sharif's tenure, and I am referring to the man who single-handedly heated up our relations with Zimbabwe, the Man Who Shall Remain Nameless, is likely to be put to pasture..."
"Ah ha, but he still hasn't taken the honourable way out - resigned..."
"In Pakistan, we don't believe in honourable resignations - be they very rich guys who can buy their way in or out, be they from an extremely influential family which in this country requires a member in the judiciary, another in a senior position in the army, and one in bureaucracy though these latter are somehow easy to get but then they are easy to lose as well..."
"What did you mean when you said rich guys can buy their way in or out?"
"They can buy their way into a position and out of a jam."
"Hmmm, anyway so the Khan is going to throw out Nawaz Sharif's punctured tyres but is he going to repair some post-Nawaz Sharif punctures."
"Nawaz Sharif has not been gone for more than two months - I mean his government's tenure ended on 31 May so..."
"I see, you get it finally."
"I am not sure he will keep any caretaker on..."
"I heard he is considering repairing one puncture and that because the tyre may assist in negotiating with multilaterals due to long work experience there."
"The Khan can do pretty much what he wants but he should ask his sister who worked in the UN all her life whether once you are out you have any influence over any decision making and don't forget if the donors and I mean the US is saying no to any project or programme lending perhaps even the head of the multilateral may not be able to overrule that. Besides there has to be baggage in staying that long in any institution..."
"So you reckon if the Khan repairs the puncture then he should know he may not be repairing a punctured tyre, but a lumbar puncture which no one in Pakistani politics has the capacity to repair? But what if The Khan performs a successful spinal tap then he will be able to diagnose multiple sclerosis..."
"Hey, in this country we can all diagnose MS the point is that our heads of government reckon that they are immune..."
"Khursheed Shah said that The Khan's tyre's puncture is not reparable and..."
"Khursheed Shah has limited himself by only talking about tyres, he needs to explore other punctures."
"Don't be facetious."
