A quick number puzzle
The idea is to knock off a couple of more countries
If everything goes to plan, we will cover Country #59 and #60. Meanwhile, I would have visited airport #166 and #167. And taken Airline #38. Let’s see what the future has for us.
Speaking of numbers, this is a milestone anniversary for us. Not the 25th (we are not that young) or 50th (not that old either). It is our 31st and for a person with unhealthy interest in numbers like me, that is a cool anniversary.
I am sure you have heard this from me many times how I think 31 is a unique number. To go over it again…
312 = 961
Reverse of 961 is 169
169 is 132
And of course reverse of 13 is 31.
So, the reverse of the square is the square of the reverse!!
I know, I marvel at the most inconsequential things in the world!!
Bubble drinks night again
‘Twas a full moon night
At our usual evening watering hole
Picked these two up in Chicago
Impromptu party
From the bartender’s corner – Godfather
Ghulam Ali evening
Chori chori ham se tum aa kar mile the jis jagah
Muddatein guzariin par ab tak wo thikaanaa yaad hai
Ham ko ab tak aashiqii ka vo zamana yaad hai
Chupke chupke raat din aansuu bahana yaad hai
Aa gaya gar vasl ki shab bhi kahin zikr-e-firaaq
Vo tera ro ro ke bhi mujhko rulana yaad hai
Ham ko ab tak aashiqii ka vo zamana yaad hai
Chupke chupke raat din aansuu bahana yaad hai
Roughly translated…
That place where you used to come to meet me secretly
Much time has gone by but I still remember that place
I still remember those days when we were in love
I still remember tears flowing secretly day and night
If ever any mention of parting came up during those nights of love
I remember how you would keep crying and then make me cry
I still remember those days when we were in love
I still remember tears flowing secretly day and night
