i just finished "the drinking den" by emile zola. its very depressing but you wont put it down. says alot about class structures in 19th century and has some interesting point of views about human nature. have you ever bunjie-jumped?

u come off as someone trying to be a jerk, which isnt intimidating at all, if thats what ure worried abt. q: whats

remember, we're supposed to follow our answer with a question (i know i forgot to ask a question too). question: at one point does humility become low self-respect?

i think an easier question would be, what isnt wrong with me.

^^^ it takes two to tango. slavery existed in africa and the muslim world long before whites came over, but it took a more dehumanizing turn in the western world, and laws were created to further dehumanize, humiliate and stagnate the offsprings of said slaves. furthermore, the problem in africa today has little to do with slavery and more to do with colonization. blacks in europe and north america are the ones suffering from the backlash of slavery. anyways, is this the guy who the king of morrocco specifically asked to be returned to him? hamza yusuf collaborated on a short book on muslims slaves who came to north america and rose up to help abolish slavery. its pretty cool.

i really thought she was a greek fury or nymph. i guess you learn something everyday. now its my turn to do some googling... okay that didnt help at all. i dont think they picked the teams that are going yet and plus i dont follow the sport. im going to say philidelphia eagles just because. my question: would you prefer being a monkey in a humans body or a human in a monkeys body? and why?

ummm, what do you expect? are somalis not xenophobic? everyone is initially. for those of us living in the west, multiculturalism is entirely a new phenomenon and its only embraced by the younger generations who grew up side by side with other youths of different cultures and races. the parents of these broad minded youths are the same ones whod be clutching their purses if they saw a farax on the same street as them.

today is not interesting. im doing chores and school work so i can maximize my day tomorrow. i have a date with some old friends.

islamically you have to provide for the children, and i believe for the first 3 months of the divorce provide for her, and other than that she keeps everything she owns (including what you gave her, or bought for her) and you keep everything you own. pretty clean theoretically, but suppose you bought her furniture and a car? it can be damaging to some mens savings, but not give a dent to others.

aren't we all brothers in humanity??? sexist pigs, what about hte sister!!!

i really dont think its arrogance on our part but just ignorance. i mean think of the culture shock. alot of us came here as children, or came from developping countries prior to where we're situated now. the whites are scared whenever they see a large amount of immigrants coming in, regardless of how well behaved they are. i mean, like someone mentionned, they were immigrants whnen they came and look what happened to the natives. i dont think its arrogance on the part of the somalis, they sound like they are trying to adjust and live by the rules.

i have no clue. what is nephtys's story in greek mythology?

uhm, im not basing what is a moderate by what the media says, but how the prophet muhammad, peace be upon him, led his life. your example has lots of wholes in it cause in some circles it is believed that the ex-war lords are running amuck within te icu and using islam as a shield. somalia isnt a good example.

i havent mastered anything really. nothing at all. i wish i could even say there was something i take diligent care of, but im pretty easy-breezy. im trying to change that, to become a more meticulous person. do you get excited about your birthday?

white lady questions? me thinks youre giving the white lady too much credit. what about oprah winfrey!?! my elders love to remind me how when i was a baby, my older bro would sing me his rendition of micheal jackson's "billie jean" with my name substituted for the songs namesake. that must have been one of the first song i ever heard. what is the single most important thing you have learned and have mastered in your life?

new year, new doors to knock on. i think i finally found my drive. can you imagine a world without music? if so, do you like it?

when did somalis become literate? everyone is reading and writing in somali now.

if i were bill gates i would... convert to islam. whats the worst first impression you ever made on someone?

i'll find it though it got so busy i dont think ill ever have the time to read it everything that occured.

today i overslept and ate a lot of junk food. i ddint eat anything that didnt have preservative of some kind or tons of white sugar... im a fiend for the white powder.

i'd like to go on the amazing race... if my hypothetical husband wanted to go on, he'd have to take me too.

well... if this will make me part of the in crowd. *brings razor to head* here goes...

i have a question about shariah. i was listening to a lecture once, and i remember a small bit but dont remember the context. the lecturer was saying that shariah (not the whole system, and definitely not the laws governing religion, but a part of it which i forget) is supposed to be revised every 10 years, thats where fatwas come in. so my question is, what part of shariah was he referring to, and is he correct?

islam is always on the middle path, a good muslim strives to be a moderate but its hard because i think human beings can only think in extremes... but than again it depends how long you think the stratus is... i think the prophet muhammad was a moderate, so he is (peace be upon him) what we should be measuring ourselves against. i consider myself as a muslim who is striving for moderation.
