This would be a case of " He (or she) who laughs last thinks slowest"

They're supposed to drive the same way the rest of the automotive population drives. You try checking your blindspot changing lanes on the highway with two hands on the wheel and let me know how it goes only put both hands on the wheel to honk at a slow-a$$ driver or to cut em off. The rest of the time (like Shaqsii said)you need that hand to change the radio station, eat a hamburger, hold a drink, or talk on your cell-phone.

STHML, I was a kid-genius. graduated at 14.

Darman, maybe they just don't wanna talk to you and they use it as an excuse: You: Whassup, Baby Her: Oh hey ( oh crap!!! not him again....why can't he take a hint) I'm on the highway, I think there's a cop behind me, let me call you back (when all the other men on the planet die). Just messing with you. Here's a word of advice. Never trust anyone who drives with both hands on the steering wheel.

SARDAUKAR, I graduated in the early 90s. When were you there?

Oh great!!! way to go Rainbow. Now we're gonna have another ticked off female driver with a "barely passed" license. DnD, you better have some good issurance...here's a good company for you.

Interest IS haraam. But when you invest in a company you're buying shares and your return is a result of there profit or loss. So the only shady thing about investing is what business the company does.

Darman and Rudy, you guys should get your minds out of the gutter.

No discrimination intended. Its an open discussion, everyones welcome

Gediid, are you saying Lakkad is so old he got his drivers license twice? or maybe you mean he used to walk Jesus to school when he was a kid so he wouldn't be run over by donkeys?

I'd believe that...explains why you're a control freak.... ...Just kidding Which school?

What year did you graduate?

Now that we're all caught up, Princess, the point I'm attempting to make with the book example is that if My desired end is make some money off a bunch of lies I would have to publish that book through a source that doesn't know any better. This example is in reference to the one Opinionated disputed. Where "someone" attempted to get into the spotlight by making allegations through a publisher whose only interest was to cash in on the anti-Muslim sentiment and market it as "An educated Muslim speaks out against flaws in Islam". The "author" defends her postion as "clarifying some contradictions" and all I'm saying is if that was trully her intended end (which I ain't buyin) there are better means to it. Comprende?

You couldn't have been too broke yourself going to bombay...er...I mean Nairobi Academy

I know quite a few Nomads that went to Hillcrest. I went to St. Austin's. Hey Wasn't there a Nomad sister that was Head girl at Nairobi Academy?

Originally posted by NoVa_03: Ughhh..Pls..no'body mentions the word "snow". I dont' wanna be stuck in the middle of the intersection no more and then to get off the car and push it....ya don't expect the damn batteries to die in the middle of the 4way street....but it was crazy, one hell of an experience i have to say...kind feel bad for the rest of the traffic for waiting what seems like more than half an hour'...lool..poor them ppl da were there.. In the past week, I've seen enough cars slide through intersections. The best thing about that is that everyone else is so tired from concentrating on driving that they're actually relieved that they get a short break while Nova's slipping and sliding trying to move here ride outta the way.... I'll give you some tips: - Forget Shortcuts, them little side streets are death traps, last time they saw a plough was back in the 40's when they were farmlands. - stick to the furthest right lane( In Canada). if you slide the curb will stop you. - Stay off any street that has street car tracks, you think frozen roads are bad, wait till you catch an icy rail. - Buy 5 containers of windshield washer (needs no explanation). Don't EVER buy it at a gas station (unless its an emergency) You know that canadian tire windshield washer, the purple one that -45 degrees with Teflon for $3.75....it's a scam cause it freezes just as fast as the blue $1.79 stuff. - If you're on the Hi-way, FOR GOD'S SAKE DO NOT SLAM YOUR BRAKE...down shift or brace yourself for a collison or change lanes or something - Listen to AM radio or if it has to be music, listen to Sade or Tracy Champan or something slow like that. DO NOT listen to anything that'll make you brave (Act a fool - Ludacris, etc) - If there's any question about whether or not you'll "make it"...YOU WON'T, relax.

I recall a lot of Nomads that attended private high schools in Nairobi. Anyone here formerly students of Nairobi Academy, Aga Khan, St. Austins, Hill Crest, etc?

I was refering to the statement you retracted. if everyone's classified by national identity or point of origin rather than state of mind, does that mean your principles are determined by your location?

Many observers were taken aback in recent days by the president's unanticipated call for the U.S. to go to the Moon and Mars. However, sources have recently revealed the true provenance of the farsighted Bush plan. The president had hoped to spare the American people the trauma of another national security alert, but governmental leaks reveal that the Office of Special Programs of the Pentagon has conclusive evidence that weapons of mass destruction are being amassed on the far side of the Moon. Furthermore, communications intercepts indicate that the Moon is acting as a client state for a terrorist regime on Mars. Analysts said the announcement was based on specific and credible intelligence, though they "refused to divulge particulars because to do so might jeopardize future attempts to fabri...uh, gather information." When approached by reporters, however, one source quipped, "Where do you think all those craters came from? Meteor showers?" Dr. Raymond Pharphlunng, authority on astronomy at the Lunar Institute of National Security Affairs (LINSA), and former head of the Space Desk in the Reagan State Department, found the argument for a lunar cache of weapons of mass destruction credible. "First of all," he said, "we don't have conclusive evidence that they are not there. There are parts of the moon that we can't see from Earth. Did you ever really stop to think about that?" A soon-to-be-released position paper by the Project for a New American Lunacy argues that American homeland security can be guaranteed only when regime change occurs on the Moon and on Mars. Interviewed off the record, one of the co-signers of the report (who are referred to as neo-lunatics) was candid in his interpretation of the facts. "You can't *****foot around. You have to go for the big guy, number one. I'm talking about the Man in the Moon. "A look at all those craters makes one thing very clear. Not only does this guy have weapons of mass destruction, but he's used them on his own people in the past." Skeptics point out that this appears to be a flip-flop from the U.S. position of the eighties when the Man in the Moon was on the C.I.A. payroll. A high administration source said, "There's a clear connection here to Al Qaeda and to Muslim fundamentalists. Did you ever take a good look at the flags of all those Muslim countries? Do you think it's a pure coincidence that the moon is one of the primary symbols of Islam? "And what is the 'color of the prophet?' And what color are Martians? And what about the fact that the moon is made of green cheese?!" In a related story, the American Civil Liberties Union claims that Immigration and Naturalization Service agents have seized a number of suspects accused of being members of a sleeper cell in Roswell, New Mexico, though the INS would not confirm such activities. The local sheriff, however, said that his department has been cooperating completely with federal authorities. "None of the people [sic] that we've took into custody has actually been green, but almost all of them was a little peaked," said the sheriff. "That's what the average American should be on the lookout for, you know, people that looks a little green around the gills, so to speak." The giant defense contractor, Halliburton, has been put on a trillion dollar retainer to head up construction for a planned moon base, "Luna Liberator 1." The first facility slated for construction is a large detention compound to be used for beings that are thought to be terrorists or terrorist sympathizers. The president has called for a new designation, "alien combatants," for the detainees. Speaking on condition of anonymity, a source in the president's office noted "since the compound will be outside of the United States, the alien combatants cannot claim human rights protections, or protection for any other kind of rights for that matter, under the U.S. Constitution, which is way too good for their kind." In the wake of these shocking developments, the president will also be calling for increased military aid to Israel, subsidies for the airline industry, reduced regulation of the major oil producers, and the abrogation of all environmental prohibitions on anything. Also, the Department of Homeland Security announced today that anyone coming to the United States from a country that celebrates the Lunar New Year would have to be photographed, fingerprinted, and subjected to a cavity search.

Islam is not the problem here...the down-slide of humanity in general caused by greed, ignorance and apathy is the issue. Islam is the cure, my friend. and if you took the time and read the whole article and the only thing you heard was a complaint, then may be you have the map to trouble free living and everyone else is just confused and misguided. By the way, what do YOU stand for, Haniif?

Audi A8 Quattro, baby...I had enuff of those zooming past me while I was under the deceptive illusion that sitting in the drivers seat and holding the steering wheel gave me control of my 2 wheel drive honda. doing 65 miles per hour with her face up next to her rear view mirror putting on her eyeliner! I dropped my electric shaver, which knocked the donut out of my other hand. In all the confusion of trying to straighten out the car using my knees against the steering wheel, it knocked my cell phone away from my ear which fell into the coffee between my legs, splashed and burned Big Jim and the Twins, ruined the damn phone and………. It's people like you that contribute to the vehicle collision stats....I gotta get a hummer to avoid you

infamous???? who? where?
