Strike 3

People seem to be scared off after yesterday’s blasts. The roads are empty. I have never seen SF so deserted in a long time. I did 100 KM/H on SF after a long long time. There were no buses at all. Most petrol stations are closed. So far no reports of any hostile activities. I hope it stays that way.

    So far no incidents of violence have been reported. Another day of productivity goes down the drain…

    So, apart from this giving us the more lazier of us another excuse to skip work and stay home, what else does this “strike” achieve?

    Hey! I did over 100!
    Drove all the way to marriott today and back after two hours.
    Im equally confused. Who called this strike to start off with?
    There were some incidents near metropole though. Nothing major thankfully.

    Yes, its so cool to see so little traffic on roads just like it used to be some 5-6 years ago. I really wish we could roll back in time, it was always a delight to drive around karachi, high speeds, short cuts, sometimes breaking the law.. driving back in the days was fun.

    ab to.. :( its a pain in neck.
    kher ab kuch ho bhi nahi sakta.

    Allah malik hai

    Umar, lest my comment get lost in the ‘Men’s Realm’ comments, I just wanted to say this to you (regarding your comment there) that I have lost all respect for you. Your reply was in very poor spirit and you did not have the grace to apologize afterwards.
