"I am so sick and tired of the Panama leaks."
"Ah ha! So Mian sahib's strategy has worked..."
"Well, I am sick and tired of the Panama leaks, but I am more sick and more tired of these inaugurations and speeches by the Prime Minister, his three stooges - the smart one Moe is Danyal Aziz because he can improvise which is why he can change loyalties, Larry the guy with middling intelligence is Pervez Rashid cause he follows the script and unlike DA when he froths at the mouth it seems bad acting, I reckon the guy is mild, and the one who follows orders is Curly Joe and this role is not specific to one person - it could be Talal Chaudhry, it could be a non elected, notably Asad Umar's brother..."
"I agree these daily attacks are getting to be boring."
"Hmmm, and the opposition's frothing at the mouth is also getting boring. The politics of consensus and reconciliation may or may not work I reckon because its architect is sitting outside the country and need I add he fully controls his stables - all his men and all his horses are firmly in his control and..."
"I agree, but you know it all began on 4 April and it's been more than a month and I simply cannot understand why it's taking so long in this country to deal with it."
"Oh, but they are dealing with it. Delay and more delay is the hallmark of the government, and I reckon with the next list expected to be out on 9th May, attention will be diverted a bit more cause a few more interesting names would be revealed and need I add deals - overt or through back channels are ongoing and ..."
"I know what Maulana Fazlur Rehman wants."
"I was told he wants to see the fall of the PTI in KPK and this time Mian sahib has given the go ahead."
"That's cool, politics over economics."
"Hey, did you miss the marriage ceremony between politics and economics during the Ayub era..."
"Speaking of the marriage Dar sahib has been made the vice chair of the board of governors of ADB."
"What does a vice chair do?"
"Not sure, but let me inform you that the board of governors is represented by the member countries finance ministers, and there are two vice chairs and their selection does not imply endorsement of their economic programmes. Last year the vice chairs were the ministers of finance of Bangladesh and Timor Leste and..."
"But what is the role of a vice chair?"
"I am not sure really, the ADB is run by bureaucrats not politicians, and bureaucrats like to have a chair and a vice chair and..."
"Don't be facetious our politicians do not like to have vice chairs."
"Remember Pervez Elahi and the king of reconciliation? Remember Dar was the chair when Mian sahib was undergoing tests in the UK and..."
"I stand corrected."
