I had one eye on an episode of SRK's KBC when writing this, and there was a question about Anil Kumble's record.... (And yes, I got the Indo-Pak divide of the two cricketers. Khan's ex-wife has been in the British glossy mags for years now...even back when Princess Di visited Khan's hospital and she and Jemima were tricked out in pretty pastel salwar kameez...) Text has been edited accordingly. Thanks! Nemo, indeed, you’re right! I had one eye on an episode of SRK’s KBC when writing this, and there was a question about Anil Kumble’s record….

It is one of those attempts at macho humor. The cricket exchange in the movie is about Imran Khan and Kapil Dev… hugely popular cricketers from Pakistan and India respectively.

I am not offended by it all, and to be honest, I have on instances experienced episodes of actually wanting to strangle people, steal their possession and drive nails through their head. I always thought those were just frustrations, but I have to thank "Kabul Express" for showing those to be an expression of my genes. Admittedly, I am trying to get horny looking at other dudes, but it just doesn't work. Must be a gene misfiring somewhere.
