Ate Christmas Buffet With Former Pakistani President Nawaz Sharif
Edited on Fri Dec-26-08 09:34 AM by JCMach1
Not intentionally, but he and his family were seated next to us for our Christmas Buffet in Dubai...

The food was great too... 6 different restaurants to sample...

Strange world...

1. Interesting.
Did you speak with him? Did you get a sense for what kind of man he is?

2. Seemed like a nice guy with his family...
What I kept thinking in the back of my mind (quick let's get out of here before the assassination attempt)!

It is also a little scary... he has left with the whole family over the holidays... kind of brings into perspective the spectre of conflict between India and Pakistan.

i.e. a VERY good time to take a vacation.

3. Those are all valid thoughts!
And it does put things in perspective.

You also get some kind of DU points for most unique angle on the holiday spirit...

Have a safe and happy season, and all the best to you. :hi:
