I have found the most brilliant website in all existence: Usman Khan. Just click on ‘biography’ and read it, I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Damn, I can’t resist. OK, a few selected gems: * “Usman Khan has a mysterious soul. One moment he would seem like an urban street smart, the next, he would win your heart with his angelic smile. He would shake hands like a down to *earth nobody, and then quote a famous philosopher. His is a soul intrigued by reality of existence.”* * “…women have been awed by his ‘life in the fast lane’ lifestyle. In all the commotion and drama, women have also blamed him of being zealously indulgent and overwhelming.” * “At 24, Usman Khan is energy personified and a phenomenon of his own kind.” * “So what drives Usman Khan? What is the direction of this bundle of energy? Where is this momentum akin to a locomotive taking this young soul?” * “Pakistan! Name it fiction; name it poetry, Usman Khan lives for Pakistan. That deep concentration, that bright sparkle in those immense eyes when a mention of Pakistan crops up.” * “Today’s, Usman Khan is a Pakistani equestrian eventer.” (Whatever the heck that is…) * “If you ask me what I came to do in this world…I will answer you: ‘I am here to live out loud.’”

To be fair to the guy, he didn’t write this thing himself. Apparently it sprung from the genius of the team manager…though curiously this team manager has no name and the website is branded Usman Khan all over.

Still, my man’s representin’, and I wish him luck:

Today’s Usman Khan is preparing for Beijing Olympics 2008. He will take his country where no one else has been.

Good luck Usman. (Lord, please let this place he’s taking Pakistan be a good one…)
