Naran trip

a tour of the Muree Brewery

The official name of Pakistan is the "Islamic Republic of Pakistan." The sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages are prohibited by both secular and sharia law. Depending on which part of the country you're in, violating this law can earn you anything ranging from a stern reprimand to a death sentence.

The Murree Brewery, despite all of this, has managed to keep its doors open in Pakistan since 1860. It is Pakistan's only licensed brewery, and is authorized to sell -- under strict rules and heavy restrictions -- to the country's tiny hindu and Christian minority populations. This morning, thanks to a friend, I was given a tour of the facility by the manager, Mr. Sabii. Mr. Sabii, formerly a major in the Pakistani Army, run a tight shop.

While photos are nice, nothing quite captures the industrial majesty of heavy machinery at work like video.

My first blog entry!

Ready, world of falsely intimate virtual contact, here I come!

This is really cool -- I bought a used Japanese car a couple of weeks ago from www.japanesevehicles.com. It's a 2000 Corolla with about 90,000 km on it. Here's a picture:





OK, so it's not the world's fanciest car, but it was cheap. As in $2100. Can't beat them apples!

So the car was put on a boat in Yokohama, and is now steaming its way towards Pakistan. How do I know? Because, thanks to the miracle of GPS technology, I can track it, in real time. Let's just hope it doesn't sink, since I opted not to pay the extra $50 for "sinking of ship" insurance!

A long weekend in Kathmandu...

So this past weekend, I traveled to Kathmandu, Nepal, to visit Amita. It was my first time in this Himalayan Kingdom, and, while the trip was relatively short (3.5 days, all told), Amita made sure that it was packed with all sorts of good stuff. From the moment I landed (and she handed me a warm burrito) to the moment I took off (still dusty from hiking in Nagarkot), it was a great, fun-filled experience...
