Samba! Rio will host the 2016 Olympics

The country's president was blunt. "It is," Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said, "Brazil's time." And the International Olympic Committee agreed with him. Snubbing Chicago on a chilly Danish evening of high drama, the IOC sent the 2016 Olympics to Rio, Brazil's bustling fun-loving but crime-ridden city of beaches and mountains, romance and slums.

President Barack Obama's appeal fell on deaf ears. Chicago was knocked out in the first round — in one of the most shocking defeats ever handed down by the committee of former Olympians, sports administrators, royals and other VIPs. They were wowed by Rio's enchanting sales pitch: some 400 million sports-mad people on a giant untapped and vibrant continent just yearning, hoping, that the Olympics finally might come to them.

I am glad that they have got it. Good luck Rio & hopefully I will be there to see the Samba danceJ if not I will watch this from my hometown in Kabirwala, as I have always done in my life:

Blogging from MS Word

So what's new and what's happening in your lives. I am still going through of being stuck at Sher Shah Bridge few days ago as I reached home at midnight. That's not good.

Any how, I have read that I can publish my blog using MS Office. I am posting this to test this promise, if it works there would be more in Kabirwala Blog.

Fingers crossed for successJ

Butcher's finger chopped by Special Duty Magistrate

Today’s daily Express carries a disturbing story, Special Duty Magistrate and his cronies has chopped finger of a poor butcher on denial of free meat. Bearing in mind, this officer is not a CSP officer but only who had been given this assignment to run the show in Ramzan. Butcher should be grateful that he is alive and must start sending 3kg meat everyday to Rana Sb, to save his neck next time.

And also, Tehsil Nazim Kabirwala may consider opening a meat shop with his PA as the head butcher…will earn him lot of respect and money as well, I bet. If he can cut one finger, he is good to go for the whole animal.
