Time and Money II
A few nights back I was dinnering with a friend in a Pizza Hut in Lahore, and after placing her order she asked the waiter how long it would take.
"Twenty minutes," came the reply.
"Ah," I remarked, calculating madly. Then I explained to my friend, "That means it'll come in 14 minutes. One Pakistani rupee is equal to 70 Indian paise."
