Well, I've done my 2 years (2 and a quarter to be exact) in Kuwait, went home, and now I'm in Islamabad for another 11 months. Also I'm engaged to the most awesomest girl out there. And I got a PS3 and XB360 and a Wii.

Pretty sure that sums up the last 3 years that I've looked at this blog.

Skype rules, and I know whats in Heinz!

P.S. So Skype rocks! I just downloaded it, got a few credits worth of SkypeOut (Lets me call POTS phones), and was able to talk with folks back home. $1 worth of credit for over an hour of talk-time back home. I was a skeptic of VoIP until today, but so far, I'm a convert.

Tomorrow I want to get up early (before noon?) and head out to the desert somewhere. Hopefully there will be some decent shots.

If you ever wondered what "Natural flavorings" were in Heinz ketchsup, check it out.

First post!

In true slashdot style, FIRST POST!

So here I am in Kuwait. Its like being on another planet. A planet populated by really bad drivers. Left turns from right lanes is par for the course. Words cannot describe it; its worse than anywhere in the US I've seen; worse than NYC, worse than Boston, than Seattle, than Washington DC. INSANE!! Today, driving up Arabian Gulf Road, I saw a dude on a crotch rocket pull a half-mile wheelie, and then putting both wheels down, and doing a FRONT wheelie. In heavy traffic, no less.

Anyway, I decided to put this up, because I'm a little bored - theres a 3-day holiday here due to Eid-al-Fitr, the end of Ramadan.

I'm going to wrap this up, but I hope to be able to post some pictures along with this.
