Dell came through, thanks to my blogging, and replaced my laptop with a brand new Inspiron 1501.
Year: 2007
Ocean’s Thirteen
This is the third movie in the series. While better than the second, it is predictable and hence not as much fun as the first, Ocean’s Eleven. I rate it 5/10.
The Third Chimpanzee
This is a good, though somewhat dated, book about the rise of Homo Sapiens. While eminently readable and full of interesting information, I found the focus on nuclear or environmental holocaust to be a hindrance.
Avoid Dell Hell
My Dell laptop is again giving me trouble. It looks like Dell gave me a defective motherboard last month.

So how much bad language do I use on my weblog? Is my blog safe for kids?
برقعہ اور جہاد
لال مسجد کے مولانا عبدالعزیز نے دھمکیاں تو خودکش حملوں کی دی تھیں مگر خود برقعے میں بھاگنے کی کوشش کی۔
Independence Day

5 Years of Blogging
It has been five years since I started blogging. Over time, my blogging has become more sporadic, but I plan to continue. So today here are some statistics about my weblog.
Das Boot
This is a very good and realistic portrayal of a German U-boat in World War II. While I loved the movie, the Director’s Cut was a bit long for me. I rate it 8/10.
At Canaan’s Edge : America in the King Years, 1965-68
This is the last book on the trilogy about Martin Luther King and the civil rights movement by Taylor Branch. The whole trilogy is a must-read.
