Sure, thats why its pictures are saved in about 300 cell phones around Karachi, I spent 450,000 on it, most of the parts were imported from England in three shipments. You know what it was looking like before the treatment? see here [link] then see the [link]

We do things to cars that doctors never do to humans, we are more kind to engines than doctors are to hearts, that honesty of ours make a 50 year old car travel from Karachi to Lahore in one go, nonstop! faster than Shalimar Express!

You know what, its 1100cc for its size, and its top speed is above 150 km/h and it takes me 588 seconds/9.8 minutes to reach Airport from Defence Phase II at late night.

Its the same car used by Mr. Bean! except mine is a very old model of 1963.

Thanks, very much appreciated.

That Mini is a hair raising fox-terrier that chases cats and frightens the elderly. Many people don't like it, well I dont care about them, Mini too. She remains afraid of trucks and buses but I do tell her that life is not as easy as was in the 60s. She also don't like the cops.

That Mini is a heck of a car you see, if there was some road to the moon, I would be there and back on it. No jokes.

I am not into medicine except I like to have a cup of tea or 2 tablets of disprin. Thats it, for all the worries! else whenever I get ill I start a self research of what and why is something going wrong, I do surprise doctors for this ability of mine, they get reminded of things they have long forgot.

Yes, KESC! I was one day thinking of building a UPS system myself. A City cannot progress without water and electricity, I wonder there's some blessing for Karachi.

I have another way of writing comments to people, make notepad text files and save them as you type.

Thanks for all the comments, I am also sure Mini is quite happy as we have talked so much about her, damn cutie! now runaway!

Now as she is not here, I must tell you that I don't care for Mini as much as you might think so, I have actual kids in my home, a 1 year old, a two year old and a 5 year old, well, Mini is surprisingly 43 years old and I am just 23, so I cant adopt her, you see.

Yes, I have conveyed your message to the Mini, I think she might be a Jaguar or Rolls-Royce as she grows up further.

Yes, one of the things I have learned so far from machines is the ability to try untill something very serious has happened, you see I am not like; Hye! mein mar gya, koi bachao! doctor ko bulao, today most of the people are like this, this kind of people can't do any notable work.

Even if my leg is broken, I will still try to walk and see if it works.

Sorry for all the jokes.

Over!

Yes, I am an adventurist sort of a person! I have seen death upclose.

The kids are very cute as their parents (my brother and bhabi) are so beautiful, yeah its so fun, with all the love, I also dont let them do anything that might even have a slight risk of injury/getting ill etc. I surely am not married.

The UPS plan is not as such dropped, I need a few car batteries, a DC power supply and an inverter, thats it, you can see how it may look like here at a sample UPS building guide [link]

The truth is, KESC is not causing me enough pain by now, I do acknowledge that their is a coutry wide power shortage so I can settle with an hour of load shading.

But as soon as they start the "all night long" song again, I will be seen building this UPS.

Its very economical, scalable and is really fun to do and have! you have your own power!

As I type this I hear the kids playing in the lawn so I really need to move and see whats going on.

Thanks, I also start jumping around here and there, it all depends on my mood. There is a kid living in all of us, that actually is our innocense.

I surely can give you one UPS for free, but you have to choose from one of these *free models:

Private Models:
Cycle UPS: Pedal operated, needs constant speed for constant volts.
Petrol UPS: Needs 1 Litre Petrol to operate for every 40 minutes.
Telenor UPS: Needs a scratch card of Telenor worth 100 rupee every hour.
Jazz UPS: Same, but needs a Jazz card, spits out any other card.
Pepsi UPS: Needs Pepsi 1.5 Litre every 30 minutes, rejects Coke.
Coke UPS: Runs on both Coke and Pepsi, but pepsi causes fluctuations.
Lipton UPS: Need a cup of hot Lipton tea every 5 minutes.

Govt Models:
SUI UPS: Needs Sui Gas to operate.
PTCL UPS: Needs your phone, calls domestic numbers every 2 minutes.
KESC UPS: Its very special, has its own loadshading times, those times should not coincide with KESC times, throws out another electricity bill every month.

Lol jokes aside, if I ever built a working UPS, I can give you one.
