Time travel to the Dark Ages

Recently, I came across this news item in a Pakistani newspaper. Read the full article
here...

From the article:
Bibi Jan was bought by a family for Rs 53,000 to be given as compensation to a family whose girl had eloped with a member of their family. However, the recipient family rejected Jan, demanding a ‘healthier’ girl be given to them. Jan was given as compensation following a jirga decision in Rusthum in Mardan district that had directed Afsar Ali of Shahbaz Gari to hand over a girl to the family of Gul Sanga of Rusthum. Since Ali had neither a sister nor a close relative, the jirga ordered him to buy a girl and then hand her over to the Sanga family...

The April story

Its been a month since I last updated the world on whats latest. Can't even remember all the
stuff thats happened in the meanwhile.
Got a car rented on Saturday - a ford taurus. Must say its a nice and smooth car. The last car
that I drove was a Nissan Sentra. Can't really decide which one is better. Just fooled around
in it for some time. Was planning to really go around on sunday but because of easter it seems
many places will not be open today. Bad planning :(
And the rain hasn't helped really.
But it has been a learning experience for sure. I had some trouble getting the gas filled again.
All in all - I feel more comfortable going for my DL test.

Someone has asked for a loan of 6 grand & I don't what to do. Some careful planning will be
required to get out of this with the minimum damage.
When am I going to get my life back :(
