A computer engineer, a systems analyst, and a programmer were driving
down a mountain when the brakes gave out.  They screamed down the
mountain, gaining speed, and finally managed to grind to a halt,
more by luck than anything else, just inches from a thousand foot
drop to jagged rocks.  They all got out of the car.

The computer engineer said, "I think I can fix it."

The systems analyst said, "No, I think we should take it into

The programmer said, "OK, but first I think we should get back

RE:- Help - Pia cancelling flight.

Salam,
    I know that one can transfer a PIA ticket for a British Airways Ticket.
My Uncle regularly travels on planes and has done so many times in the
past. You must take your PIA ticket to the MAIN PIA issuing office. From
there then they will be able to transfer it to British Airways. It is
worth a try.

    I hope this is of help.

So that means one cannot be muslim by birth ... one has to study the religion
in depth to "wholeheartedly" believe in it. What that translates into is that
all but few of the people living in the muslim countries (now can we call them
muslim countries?) are not muslims! 

"Hey Mike , congratulations your conversion has been endorsed! You can go
back to Pakistan now, and you won't be killed!"

I will like to add a little about Hinduisim as I learnt in
RAM KRISHNA MISSION. Our Hinduisim have got a concept of NIRAKAR
god. The other concept is called SHAKAR. TThe former means one
and only one form less god. The other really means Hinduisim or
Hindu Culture. Hindu culture is in its present form because of
this multi-god system. This how RAMKRISHNA explains it.

All reigions are just different paths to the same almighty god.
The multi-god system is just to facilitate the imagination of
the difficult concept God. In Hinduisim, the system of multi
god can be considered as representation of different virtues.
For example Saraswati represent the knowledge. It is a symbolic
OBJECT ORIENTED APPROACH. The stories connected are also symbolic
representing how we should behave.

If I am wrong Please enlighten us

The guy went to his office and when he returned home he saw an ambulance 
leave, he asked his wife what had happened, she said her mother had died.

the next day he was going to his office when he heard the same crying, this
time his son said,

"oh god save my sister I dreamt that she would die"

So he went to the office, thinking that his daughter might die today.  When
he got back an ambulance was leaving, he asked his wife what happened, she
said that thier daughter had died.

The last day he was going to office and he heard 

"oh god save my dad, I dreamt that he would die."

he went to office being extra careful, crossed roads with care, and did
not even rock his chair at office, when he came home he saw an ambulance

 Five bad habits?  where do you come from?
 Perhaps you read the spelling wrong. Its punjABI, not punjAIB.
and where I come from Punjab means 5 rivers, as in PUNG_AB (pronounced
PUNG-AAB), and punjabi meaning a person from Punjab.

 Five bad habits,   tsheeaaah right.
