Copenhagen Diary: Street Performer at Strøget (the Pedestrian Shopping Street))

While walking down the Strøget one night, I saw this person singing some catchy tunes on his guitar. Strøget is considered to be the oldest and the longest pedestrian shopping streets in the world. Walking through its arteries, you can have a flavor of the Danish taste in shopping and also find international styles in clothing, fashion, electronics, soveniers, accessories, toys, food and pretty much everything else. Not to forget a diverse crowd of nationalities from across the world roaming the lengths of Strøget at any time of the day or night.

One thing I would suggest for sure; never use the services of money changers located at the beginning of the street near Radhuspladsen. They seriously overcharge and do not give you a worthy rate for your foreign currency.

More on Strøget in Copenhagen Diary will follow soon.

Life's not all fair

Spent, worn and tiredness rife
Efforts that one puts in life

For all they work for and spend and spare
Not all get their own fair share

It's easy to brag, it's easy to blare
But then, Life is not always fair...

Back to Earth!

Just been back from Pluto after a long hectic flight and it feels so nice to be among my friends, family and relations again.

The world has not changed enough since I left for my long journey apart from rising garbage mounds in Naples and the fact that biofuel suddenly has become the new 'killer' of mankind. :S

Interestingly, when attending a dinner by the AEMOP (Association of Expat. Mercurians on Pluto), although I was the 'star' of the evening, almost everyone complained of us humans as being the most polluting creatures in this universe and that everyone else feared the day when we, the humans will start making landfills on other planets.

Later that week, I had discussions with a delegation from Venus who were very excited about our very own Venice. Along with showing an interest in declaring Venice and Venus 'sister' townships they also signed a MoU to protest the Moon's activities that are threatening the survival of 'our' Venice.

And last but not least the most serious matter was discussed with representatives from Mars regarding their reservations on declaring the discovery of water on their planet and that they have installed a safeshield over the reserve preventing its visibility to human eye or telescope. Their concern was that if humans ever found out where on Mars water is, they would invade the planet to capture the source just as they did with a country called 'Eeeraak' on their very own planet.

I had no explanations to make :S

Interesting Labels - by mistake

Daily Times is one of Pakistan's many popular English daily newspapers. Today, I was browsing through their website when I came across these two images mistakenly posted under each other's label and description.

The result is, hilarious!
