Stupid Sam !! It's Khaled Rabiahl !!

I've got some friends from Mid-East nations. Not knowing why, I usually make mistake with their names. The recent mistake, however, could be the most serious one. I wrote about Waleed (a friend from Oman) in my diary on July 22. I was also keen to know where another Omani was and asked Waleed last week if he'd seen the "another Omani friend - Khaled". Waleed said no. I was wondering why on earth Waleed had never seen Khaled while I'd seen him several times. Today we finally got the reason - I made a mistake: that's Rabiahl but not Khaled (the former is the "another friend" from Oman while the latter is from Saudi Arabia) No wonder Waleed said he'd never seen Khaled for a long time. I wrote Waleed and "Rabiahl" in my diary whereas asked Waleed about "Khaled"... That's really a stupid mistake...
