that’s the vilaytee take on turbans.. for the more traditional ones i wonder if dulha house has a website up yet..

o yaaar, i meanty traditional turbans of diff provinces, areas regions etc etc..not of tarbash teh egyptian magician.

Baloch tribesmen wear a huge white turban, I think their turban is the longest among all. I am not sure if there is an another particular reason in wearing the white turban than distinguishing oneself from other groups. As some Paktoons tribes wear Pakol, in upper Balochistan and in southern Balochistan the Pakhtoons tribes wear small black turban and some other Pakhtoon tribes in the NWFP wear green turbans. How much a turban is important for a Bloch tribesman can be guessed by a Baloch ballad which goes like that,"I swear on my head and hair and turban".

This unknown man is also wearing a white turban, but doesn't look like a proud Baloch. ;-)

A biyootch is a swine in hiding.

Gotta admit man…The guy has class…

I was working at K-Mart after 9/11 when this lady comes up to me with newsweek and says, ‘Why did he have to do this? And he’s pretty good looking too’…:hehe:

I think there’s something in his smile…This woman on the internet actually kept staring at his face and became a Muslim…

How does that work? Is it like in the movies when there’s a full moon and a person becomes a werewolf? Similar or no?

^^ Haha...Yeh...But on a split second level...:D

interesting ..

Pakistanis in turbans look good, but that freak Osama doesnt... He should stick to his Arabic Chogha...

^
His deeds are ugly but I think he’s quite good looking, I mean if you consider his age and everything, he’s much more handsome than Bush, Blair or Musharaff uncle.

Allah made his physical appearance we shouldn’t unnecessarily mock him for that, but his wrong actions are his fault and they should be condemned.

and let's discuss all turbans.. not the ones worn by just one particular person..

:bhangra:
