News, but not the serious kind
Shay, can I get more of thish water?

Lamar, where are you? I know you’re in this storage room, I saw you come in.
There you are. My God, you’re drunk! Here’s a liter of 100-proof vodka, and it’s almost empty!
Lamar, you’re a State Department employee, and you know our strict policy. If you get caught drunk on the job more than eight or nine times, you’re out!
Pull yourself together, man! Get your head out of the wastebasket!
Now, the last thing I told you to do was pour some water in Hillary Clinton’s glass for her news conference. But here’s the case of bottled water, unopened.
So Lamar, if you didn’t use the water, then WTF DID you put in Mrs. Clinton’s glass?

AIch… that guy has had it from his wife… I swear… you will hear it in tomorrow’s Pakistan Herald… I am sure they have a paper with that name… or maybe the Pakistan Times to be on the safer side… though I am sure that guy is not safe anymore…
Now you’ve got me confused, Robert. I thought ALL press conferences at the State dept. were mandated to have Vodka as gesture of good will to Russia?
She is laughing at the thought that he might have a spare box of cigars.
Yes, another Clinton/cigar joke. It’s almost required by law.
Isn’t the Pakistani capital Lahore?
So maybe the conversation went something like this:
Pakistani guy – ” I’ve just come from Lahore”
Hellary – “Strange – I used to accuse Bill of that all the time”
Pakistani guy – “I don’t think we mean the same one”
Hellary – “I hope not – she was kinda trashy”
Pakistani guy – “Oh! So we DO mean the same one”
I don’t get it, Zeitgeist. This makes absolutely no sense. The capital of Pakistan is Karachi.
Capital is Islamabad and his wife wont say a thing as that’s not the culture there.
But I like this couple
You’re right, of course, Islamabad is the political capital and Karachi is the financial capital. But Lahore sounds funnier.
They do appear to be having a fine old time, don’t that. Oh well, serves Bill right for all of his … indiscretions. She could do worse.
@RB: Lahore is a funny city to say the least
I like that picture actually. I think it’s cute when people laugh so much their nose crinkles.
E.
Bill, how many Pakistani women do you know? I know a couple and believe me, they would make sure if he was either one of their husband, he would have some serious answering and pandering to do….
Not a one.
I stand corrected!! Yippee!! Yabba Dabba Yahoo!!!
?
Just on a my afternoon dose, Billly boy! Cheers! Its Friday!
As Mr. Qureshi is a Pakistani Muslim, and that being a heavily male-dominated society, I doubt Mrs, Qureshi will be saying Jack.
And she certainly won’t be drinking it either.
Pakitani women does not mind such petty incidents, they are more concerned about their long term relationship with their husband. But I am sure his wife must be missing him a lot at that time.
