lol@adam. this is awersome.

ok.

but all things considered your probably one of the nicest people i have ever met. your personality, despite its obvious shortfalls is exemplary and should be the standard. don't worry brov, our people are full of shit. here in the horn, they use 'positive' subtle undertones' eg. you ''will'' give me that water. , ''you will listen to me'', ''do you understand (mockingly)?'' the list can go on. i'm sick of it walahi. these savages are ruining my experience and life in hargeisa.

i've never met a civilised somali person. they are all horrible, back-stabbing and cruel. i keep my distance usually. they are prone to jealousy, resentment and barbaric behaviour. i will my distance in the future.

Typical N.O.R.F, What a silly post and silly pathetic comments you've put on here. i remember you tell me to get a grip when i first started posting on here but now you've lost the plot. why have expectations at all. somalis are horrible people; so what? who cares.

i see somethings don't change, still living in that bubble of yours. your indeterminate hiatus was interesting. welcome back adam.

After many years of study in Europe, the young narrator of Season of Migration to the North returns to his village along the Nile in the Sudan, eager to make a contribution to the new postcolonial life of his country. Back home, he discovers a stranger among the familiar faces of childhood—the enigmatic Mustafa Sa’eed. Mustafa takes the young man into his confidence, telling him the story of his own years in London in the early part of the twentieth century, of his brilliant career as an economist, and of the series of fraught and deadly relationships with European women that led to a terrible public reckoning and his return to his native land. But what is the meaning of Mustafa’s shocking confession? Mustafa disappears without explanation, leaving the young man —whom he has asked to look after his wife—in an unsettled and violent no-man’s-land between Europe and Africa, tradition and innovation, holiness and defilement, and man and woman, from which no one will escape unaltered or unharmed.

hear hear!

^ yh you too. there was a lot of animosity in your words. don't think being sarky is gonna get you out of this.

In the Netherlands, everyone is quite aware of the Christmas character known as Black Pete. He's a little African slave who helps out Santa Claus. According to the Dutch tradition, Black Peter is responsible for carrying a book full of the names of naughty children, along with a rod and a sack to take the bad children away. He also scatters candy for children. Since the character's creation in the 1840s, the Dutch have defended it. They even dress up publicly in blackface, and claim that Black Pete is only dark from coming down the chimney -- but he doesn't wash clean. Yet recently, Black Peter is causing more anger and controversy among the Dutch for the stereotypes associated with the Christmas character. In fact, they became so mad that organizers of New Westminster's Dutch Sinterklaas celebrations in Canada have pulled Black Peter from their traditional parade after complaints that the black-faced helper carried racist undertones. Members of the African-Canadian community complained that the character was offensive and outdated. It was the first time since 1985 that Black Peter will not accompany Sinterklaas as he heads to New Westminster Quay aboard a paddle wheeler boat, according to the Vancouver Sun. Bernard Piprah, who was an organizer of the annual Black History Month symposium at Douglas College, argued to the Vancouver Sun that the Black Peter character comes loaded with offensive, racist stereotypes: "[The character] is degrading, and it's racist, and it's incredibly outdated," Piprah said told the Vancouver Sun. "You can't erase that. You can go to your local library and read that this Black Peter was a slave. He beat children. He was dumb, and he spoke buffoonish Dutch. There are just so many insulting aspects to that character, and I can't believe they're celebrating it in New Westminster." Although many Dutch just want the tradition to stop, some would like to address the issue. In Holland, critics say that avoiding the racism implied in continuing the Black Peter tradition is a way of avoiding the thorny issue of immigration. "It's kind of something they should address, no matter what the culture, when an aspect of it is clearly offensive to a particular group," Piprah told the Vancouver News. ----------------------------------------- http://www.thegrio.com/news/black-peter-racist-dutch-xmas-tradition-or-not.php ----------------------------------- interesting article.

^ stop writing like that.... was it a good year or a bad year?

jb, could you me the link to vote for him please? lol

^ these one lines are so postmodern NORF. spill the beans, what could possibly be interesting about a year in your dull life? i bet the two visits to somaliland were the highlight of another year in the ordinary life of NORF. Next year i want to focus all my energies on getting married, having the pre-selection birth of my son - alpha jr and hopefully make my first million dollars.
