The river bank is surely the perfect location for any bank's or bankers wet dreams! And what location could be better than the banks of Dubai Creek? Dubai, the lucky city!

Awesome Baroda-work, Khuram. The least they could do is erecting a monument for the photographer with that keen an eye, and making sure that his pocket money is never running out.

It won't happen, unfortunately, because their miserliness won't allow it. Β 

Kudos to the master! Beautiful scene, Khuram, and as always, and as so many before me have remarked: the colors are smashing.

Say, can that Baroda Bank be trusted? Y'know, I've got some money from some business with some guys which have some connections and know some people with some influence in some places some would never expect etc. Of course you guessed right: I'm talking about Sepp Blatter! Being Swiss, I cannot avoid being part of these shady sports deals, which some crudely call corruption.

And here's the latest Sepp Blatter joke: what's the difference between Sepp Blatter and God? God does not think he is Sepp Blatter.

Thank you kindly, B!Β 

Ahaha, that's a funny joke! In fact the very same could be applied to the esteemed prime minister of Pakistan - pardon! Every prime minister of Pakistan.Β 
What's even funnier is that it is often people harboring grandiose delusions are the ones who end up being the most successful of the lot.
Maybe they are on to something here.Β Maybe we the lesser mortals are simply too daft to see the bigger picture. Who knows?Β 
I know and have accepted that I for one will never be as successful (aka. filthy rich) as Mr. Blatter, but hey, at least he and I share the same birthday.

You share the same birthday? With that Blatter? Surely this is an unjust world. We all know you'd deserve so much better, but that joker called fate has played another of his cheap pranks, then!

And as for these strange kind of people with their grande delusions - if we weren't so gullible, they would implode in no time, faster than a balloon at a kiddies birthday party. But since we need to believe, we give them the very chance they do truly not deserve.

Four-letter words are reserved mainly for them, even if are not aware of it, sometimes.

You know, what if the whole world- regular peeps, not just VIPs deserving of 4-letter words got together and had a revolution and changed everything? I know it won't happen, but what an incredible revolution it would be. But even better would be the parties after..if the tables were turned all that money would not just trickle down, it would gush! Of course, after the parties some new greedy peeps would no doubt figure out a way to rob all the regular peeps again & eventually either they would have all the money or the earth would not inhabitable..so, I, for one, would rather not be filthy rich. Besides it's a dirty job,being filthy rich.Β

This is a wonderful photo, KMan- the light, water, buildings & of, course- this banking by boat thing. Maybe we can get little mobile banks on wheels here so we don't have to wait in line for hours to give our money to large corps. Β Kind of like Geek Squads- but Bank Squads..or something Β

You know, forget what I said on FB about your town needing more banks, your idea could actually work! Β 
Thanks, buddy!

I must admit I'm confused as to why a bank has a boat. Is it where it sends its bank stocks to sink?
