Ehsan and Hamid (Islamabad Generals) were standing at the base of a flagpole on the Constitution Avenue, looking up.
A press reporter woman walked by and asked what they were doing.
We're supposed to find the height of the flagpole," said Hamid, "but we don't have a ladder."
The press reporter took a wrench from her purse, loosened a few bolts, and laid the pole down. Then she took a tape measure from her pocket, took a measurement, announced, "Eighteen feet, six inches," and walked away.
Ehsan shook his head and laughed. "Ain't that just like a press reporter! We ask for the height and she gives us the length!"
Ehsan and Hamid are currently thinking of running for the PML (Q) in two ridings of Islamabad. |
