looooool^^^ Caano I didn't know you were waiting for a reply. Sorry but I don't know the names of the books...Because I didn't get a chance to jot them down. Maybe when I'm at work this week, I'll write them down for you. I tried searching the net using the ISBN's alone but that was pointless.

Well I don't see what the fuss is, if you don't want to go to any that's you choice...stay at home and worry about potential murders and who's out to get you. I've been to few and they were all pleasant affairs, and all people who I feel I know well enough to meet. Which is why I prefer closed/ behind closed door gatherings that way you know who is showing up and judge according to that, whether you’ll make an appearance or not. (I know it’s cheeky) As for the paranoid few…Don’t worry we’re not vampires well no bodies have been found yet!

I think I saw a topic about this some time ago, I tried looking for it reluctantly. Well I've found quite a few Somali/English books, that I thought were quite nice, because most of the stories are African tales/folklaws. I didn't have time to get the full details of all the books but I did manage to get all their ISBN's...I reckon that's enough. 1 85269 2707 1 85269 2219 1 85269 6214 1 85269 5641 1 85269 9957 1 85269 7768 1 85269 8667 1 85269 8470 I hope this was of some use to you all.

blah blah blah blah blaaaaaah! I didn't want to write a one liner, but i seriously don't have the energy! I have five things for 2005! And I've done erm...two? I think that the rest weren't so feasible! BUT the major ones were driving lessons and Gym, and I'm actually doing them...how effective they are…is another story entirely!

This is a chain e-mail being circulated at my cousin's office. I don't know what she was thinking when she sent it to me, but it looks to me like they're anti-Iraq. (pay attention to last qoute from the Qu'ran) And is that really a quote from the Qu'ran? :confused: :confused: :confused: -------------------------------------------- IRAQ - VERY INTERESTING - DID YOU KNOW? 1. The garden of Eden was in Iraq. 2. Mesopotamia, which is now Iraq, was the cradle of civilization! 3. Noah built the ark in Iraq. 4. The Tower of Babel was in Iraq. 5. Abraham was from Ur, which is in Southern Iraq! 6. Isaac's wife Rebekah is from Nahor, which is in Iraq. 7. Jacob met Rachel in Iraq. 8. Jonah preached in Nineveh - which is in Iraq. 9. Assyria, which is in Iraq, conquered the ten tribes of Israel. 10. Amos cried out in Iraq! 11. Babylon, which is in Iraq, destroyed Jerusalem. 12. Daniel was in the lion's den in Iraq! 13. The three Hebrew children were in the fire in Iraq (Jesus had been in Iraq also as the fourth person in the fiery furnace!) 14. Belshazzar, the King of Babylon saw the "writing on the wall" in Iraq. 15 Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, carried the Jews captive into Iraq. 16. Ezekiel preached in Iraq. 17. The wise men were from Iraq. 18. Peter preached in Iraq. 19. The "Empire of Man" described in Revelation is called Babylon, which was a city in Iraq! And you have probably seen this one. Israel is the nation most often mentioned in the Bible. But do you know which nation is second? It is Iraq! However, that is not the name that is used in the Bible. The names used in the Bible are Babylon, Land of Shinar, and Mesopotamia. The word Mesopotamia means between the two rivers, more exactly between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. The name Iraq, means country with deep roots. Indeed Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in the Bible. No other nation, except Israel, has more history and prophecy associated it than Iraq. And also.. This is something to think about! Since America is typically represented by an eagle. Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages... The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible) Koran (9:11) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be! felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace . (Note the verse number!) Hmmmmmmm?! God Bless you all Amen ! ------------------------------------------- I doubt America brought peace to Iraq, and certainly don't see peace on Iraq's horizon.

Sorry to be fussy but i think you'll find that seven of nine isn't a borg and therefore does not share the same mentality. She was once connected to the borg but she was saved. Because she was assimilated as a child she can not express normal human emotions.

I don't know what you're complaining about, I've had 13 voters and an average of 3 stars. You can't get worse than that. Anyways...why do I need other people to tell me how good I am?!

hey, I found the source... As cops raided the flat three women, said to be Somalian, were ordered to the ground at gunpoint outside a nearby internet cafe on the adjoining Harrow Road. Plain-clothes police kicked their bags of shopping away and tore their handbags from their grasp. The women and a 14-year-old boy with them were made to strip and dress in white boiler suits before being driven away. http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2004600000-2005330917,,00.html The source was also used by Suldaaanka. I don't know what to think!

hey haven't you all the heard the rest of the story? I'm surprised you only posted half of the story. Three Somali women and a 14 year old boy were forced to the ground at gun point, whilst carrying shopping and walking outside a internet shop near Harrow road. They were forced to strip and change into boiler suits before been taken away for questioning. I read this on the Sun paper (Not that I usually read that trash )

OH MY GOD! They look Somali, especially the bloke in the bottom left corner. I hope to God they're not!

Diamante, I'm glad you're feeling better walaal...take care of yourself walaal! And thank you for taking the time to post

lool^^^ Waryaa I always knew you were an attention seeker. Did you give your mum a wave?

This is the funniest thing I've heard so far.... At Shepherd's Bush station, police told reporters that a man had threatened to blow himself up and then ran off. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4703777.stm

rokko, who ever it is, is following in the example of the pervious bombings. There's three underground stations and bus explosion. But Alhamduiallah the explosions were small and apparently, Sky news has reported a man's rucksack blowing open, and he was said to have looked "dismayed" (lol) the passengers tried to detain him. Go on londoners! http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30000-1189833,00.html

I'm getting so BORED of this! what exactly is the point of all this? :mad: SKY News

I've had enough of this rubbish! :mad: :mad: :mad:

Hey people I thought I'd cheer you all up with alittle bit of light hearted fun. Well I found a quiz you can take if you like, it's alittle long winded but the result is worth it. According to the quiz I'm Porkey Pig! ----------------------------------------- Porkey Pig You scored 28 Aggression, 85 Sophistication, and 14 Optimism! Non-aggressive, possibly shy, dapper, well-mannered, and likely far too hard on yourself, you are the prototypical conscientious friend who too often gets taken advantage of. Generally you don’t like to make a fuss and are more or less adverse to risk-taking. There are those out there who make entire careers out of manipulating people like you, and you should be very weary of them. Regardless, try taking a few risks and definitely stick up for yourself more. Maybe quit your safe but boring job, or ask that special person out. You are someone of high moral character and probably deserve far more out of life than you are settling with. --------------------------------------------- Take the quiz...Which Looney Tune Are You Test http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?testid=481494329074504659

welcome to the club zephy! I'd forget my head if it wasn't screwed on. short term memory loss, have you got it?

you all don't seriously believe I'm 31 right? Mizz you will pay dearly for your slander! :mad:

The managers are out today, so everyone’s just relaxing...actually just me lol Listening to the radio, annoying work colleagues with idle chitchat. The weather is beautiful so I think I'll walk home.

Sorry I didn't say it sooner, But I hope you had a great one. I Know how depressing it can get lol It's not so much the years but what you've achieved during those years. Best wishes for the many years to come, may they be everything you wished them to be.

Testify sister! I'm ashamed of our girls. They're not acting funny they're acting...erm, well like frenzied man deprived/man eating women. Girls please be civil there’s enough to go around. lol

Originally posted by SomericaN: This topic is another way of saying picture me rolling in my sheets. I totally agree, I thought I was the only one who thought that. I wouldn't want to speak ill of our SOL girls but desperation is at a all time high here it seems. I believe there are other more "tasteful" and "tactless" methods of achieving erm...whatever it might be that you girls want or are after here. :rolleyes: Please don't attack me girls for speaking the truth...I think I need Muna's help! I'm scared!

Hey I'll take up the challange, but I'm not using google, I'm using www.scroogle.org Lol! It's just as effective without being tracked.
