I just came across this village and the idea is great. I am looking for a girl for an awsome friend of mine who is not my brother so I can not realy say that I am looking for a bhabhi. Can I still ask around and no girl will mind here. Is that how it works or this village is to express opinions about the selections. This guy who I am talking about is a total package and finally admits that he can settle down if I find him a special girl and I think for guys to realize that its "The Time" is amazing. I just h...

June 1, 2005 at 6:49pmSheesh, that Rome-village-hookup analogy was a baaaad one. My apologies fellow lookers!
June 1, 2005 at 6:41pmAh, well, this village is in its infancy and Rome wasn't built in a day...I'm planning on spending time on the bachelors and bachelorettes, making sure that each match is the ri...

Come to Ahlus Sunna Wal Jammah village here is the link: www.naseeb.com
June 5, 2005 at 6:58pmIndeed F-dog that is JUST the beginning, we can talk about mutaa, "paying to be Muslim", sleeping over graves, prostrating to graves, pedophile fatawas by ayatullahs, and the l...
June 3, 2005 at 11:07pmRAterHAter...it shows you are weak =P You prob dont even know why you are sunni. Such a shame, if you are that weak, go be a shia and beat yourself lol, or go be a sufi and danc...
June 3, 2005 at 10:39pmi think you are confused because i was raised sunni, but people like you make me want to be sufi or shia because your ignorance only shows flaws in the ahlus sunna beliefs. kill...

I wonder if it is too much to ask to be inspired by your mate. I recently had a discussion about this and in a fog of pseudo-intellectualism I told my friend that I would want to be inspired by the mere presence of my wife. Not just a friend, a love, but also a muse. I was severely admonished. Apparently that is too much to put on my potential mate. What about it ladies? Any out there willing to shoulder this burden?
June 14, 2005 at 9:15pmI believe Stephen Hawkings is married. So, he is inspiring someone, somehow. (Good for him, by the way.)
June 14, 2005 at 11:34amah but with the student/teacher thing, only the student benefits...what's in it for the teacher? i agree with choco, being the teacher all the time can get old.....

this article appeared on 5/10/05 in the la times opinion page. its so funny. www.latimes.com side note: even her fake eye lashes are made of real fox fur!

June 1, 2005 at 7:22pmFur is a most disgusting and pathetic excuse for fashion. I don't want to have anything to do with people who wear fur.
May 31, 2005 at 12:54ami've always wondered what the high fashion of furs was about. its not like they're eskimos. why must non-artic ellite wear them??? oh and real peta ppl are not for mistreating a...

hmmm... Ok, I'm considering another car purchase. Right now I already have an import 2seat high-perf. sports coupe & an import midsized SUV. I'm looking into getting a plush midsized import (JDM) 4dr w/ reasonable miles, no major drama, etc. I'm looking to spend $3.5-5k ( +/- $500 ); basically it's play money for an utility car. The contenders so far are: - 1990-1996 Infiniti Q45 ($2.5-6.5k) - 1991-1995 Acura Legend ($2.5-5.5k) Others I'd be keen on but seem to be slightly above my range: * 199... Read More
June 2, 2005 at 12:05amThe earlier Q's do have their quirks. One of my good friends got one for about $2.5k w/ 130k miles. He had to do the window regulators (2), power-steering bushings (?), driver...
June 1, 2005 at 3:24pm1998 honda accord for 5g daym, up in toronto they r around 10g easily wih 120km to 130km... keep in mind the head gasket, and the rust problem in older jap cars.
June 1, 2005 at 10:46amWow, i'm looking in the same boat for price range, but I was unaware of some of these cars that could be attained with $5k. I was thinking Toyota Corolla personally lol.

Dear Mathematicians, I am currently struggling with a math problem. It involves showing the existence of a scalar sequence t(k) that satisfies a system of affine matrix equations of the form x(k+1) = A(t(k),t(k-1))x(k) + b(t(k),t(k-1)), for integers k = 1,...,p; x belongs to real N-dimensional space; A is square and both A and b are piecewise differentiable in t(k) and t(k-1) for each k. I'm looking for a starting point good in some of your favorite reference books (or journal papers) in optimization o... Read More

...before deciding to get married. These sound like interview questions. *Why are you interested in marrying at this time? *How would you describe yourself? *What do you consider your greatest achievement to date? *Describe three experiences you?ve had that you?ve benefited/learned from. *What has been the hardest obstacle you?ve faced thus far in life? How has it affected you? *If there was one thing you would like to change about yourself, what would it be? *What are your goals for this life? ... Read More

Does anyone know how to make the Egyptian desset Im Ali? If so, please share the recipe! Thanks :)
September 22, 2005 at 10:07amYeah, its Um Ali, and its a simple mix that you drown into a milk-honey mixture. Don't use sugar if you can possibly avoid it, and if you do, then use brown sugar. That's the ...

How true is the saying that people who are up to no good get a worry free existence on earth, and don't seem to be tested as much as the rest of us.
June 1, 2005 at 10:14amthx humble for clarifying, in that case the answer is very simple and within. We as humans have some inherent qualities from our creator. Listening to our praise from somebody e...
May 31, 2005 at 6:37pmI guesss I was referring to my observation of people around me and how their situation tallies with the respite mentioned in verses from the Quran like Surah an Nahl [16:61]: "I...

Riding the "L" is always an experience for me. Sometimes it's fun people-watching and at other times the noise and filth are just plain annoying. But, most of the time, I just zone out and let my thoughts carry me somewhere far away. A few weeks ago I did not have this option. The reason? Well, I had the privilege of twisting my ankle, while running to the "L" in the rain, during the hype of rush hour. Once I boarded the train, I was further honored to have an obese man sit next to me as I suffocated bet... Read More
June 11, 2005 at 2:36pmManas, sounds like an uncomfortable situation. Maybe the large passenger was just being inertial and didn't have a reason for not moving at all. Not much fun, but just a part of...
June 6, 2005 at 12:14amI haven't ridden the el since, what, '99? but I do recall once I was dozing off and I think I (truely) accidentally ended up leaning on the girl next to me. When I noticed, I st...

Working women all around the world are faced with a dilemma as old as women's lib and the glass ceiling: being stay-at-home moms or continuing with their careers. Do you plan on trading in the corporate ladder for diapers and baby bottles? How about you guys out there? Gender roles are increasingly changing in todays day and age. More and more dads are staying home with the kids as women become the primary bread winners. After having truly horrible experiences with nannies, my cousin, who is a doctor and his... Read More
May 31, 2005 at 8:10amSo I really think its a genetic thing: the idea that women should stay home and the men continue to earn a living. One of my very close couple friends had a baby about a year ag...
May 30, 2005 at 10:44pmStaying home with the kids does not preclude a man from earning a decent living. At the risk of appearing to be paying lip service, it is something I would love to do. As an a...
May 30, 2005 at 6:59pmCome on, Bleeeeach. When it really comes down to making the decision, I think most men would feel somewhat emasculated at the thought of their wives taking on the role of breadw...

I have this great and giant book called THE SECRET LANGUAGE OF RELATIONSHIPS, which is written by the same guys who brought us THE SECRET LANGUAGE OF BIRTHDAYS. From Amazon.com: The Secret Language of Relationships is simple to use. A glance at the two-page chart at the beginning of the book determines your birthday "period." Next, find the period of the person who interests you--friend, parent, child, lover, or mate. The ensuing relationship dynamics are named colorfully and aptly: "Peas in a Pod," "Uncommo... Read More

I've heard so many aunties share this desi divorce story, I'm beginning to think that either everyone really does know everyone else in our community or that it's a desi urban legend. It basically goes like this: An American desi girl is married to a guy who has recently arrived from the motherland. They have a pretty good relationship, except that the girl still insists on going out with her old friends even if the hubby isn't in the mood for a night on the town. He forbids her from going out with her frien... Read More
May 30, 2005 at 10:59pmWell I can't speak to the desi aspect of this but I can offer a more objective perspective. Im not sure if you are addressing the potential cultural schism that can occur betwe...
May 30, 2005 at 7:04pmI think it's pretty safe to say that I won't ever be referring to the desi aunty book of urban legends for my own kids.

I saw this one today and was struck by it. What's your favorite (I have none per se) "Open my grave when I am dead, and thou shalt see a cloud of smoke rising out from it; then shalt thou know that the fire still burns in my dead heart -- yea, it has set my very winding-sheet alight." -Hafiz
