Congrats to the winners of the first round. Now what do I need to do to make sure NG doesn't win the next and final round?

Great images, Abdinasir. The level of desertification, particularly in Northern & Central Somalia, really worries me.

JB, it's lame to laugh at your own joke.

My most vivid memory of Eid in Somalia was when my beautiful pet goat, Shacni, was slaughtered and her liver was served to us for breakfast. I can still picture the sparkling red blood and green gooey digested grass on the ground below a headless Shacni, hanging upside down. After that the kurdado and xaqal ciid meant nothing.

*Waves @ Cara* It's been fun. Afur wanaagsan, people.

Kuwa wax dila, they are usually armed aren't they? Most of the murdered Somalis in SA were shot soo maaha? The other day a friend of mine was telling me a young Somali guy was attacked and killed for his internal organs in SA. I don't know if it is true or not but it scared the bejeezus out of me. SA is not a place I would want to visit.

NG, is there an attached explanation to go with that post?

Mayee, rooxaantiisa.

FB, Yes, I noticed you were missing. Such a shame. I am onboard, voted for the unlikeliest couple: Siren and Nuune. They have given me much to giggle about recently. PS: Are people voting for themselves?

And what about the males? Allamagan, Dabshid, Gheelle, Norf all missing. Ibti, sorry you had to be in the crossfire but this type of topic always comes with dhibaato. Is giiji hun.

'Cyber Female' to call you by your full title, juxa (is it me or is your profile image and CL's similar? I confuse your posts). The fact that F-Brown thinks it fair and balanced proves it's deeply corrupted. The only regrettable aspect is that Ibti had to be the coordinator. Musuqmaasuq. MUSUQMAASUQ.

This Poll is fixed.

NG, Ma qofbaa daanka kaa feedhay? CL, of course. Weel keenso.

A&T, nuune uma baahna inaan u waramo, already wax walba wuu ogyahay. Rooxaantaa warka siisa ayaan umaleynayaa.

@ Biya-Oodkii. NG, you are hardly objective as you think you are young too. Hi CL.

Nuune, waxaan u maleynayaa inaad geel raaci jirtey abaartii daba dheer ka hor. Maxaad da' qarsatay. PS: About childbirth, if you are a woman who wants children, childbirth waa hawl kuu talaa. Mar uun baad isasoo dhaafin, I'A.

^ Lagama sheekeen karo.

^^I hear after the first one, the rest is a breeze. Choco, I don't like to think about the process, but the end result.

Waaxay hanjabaadu? Ma kaligey baa iska imanaya ayey kula tahay? Family-ahaan uun baan meelahaas oo kale u dagayaa. Candhuufta dib u liq.

^ Welcome to SOL, Rayan. I wouldn't mind moving back to parts of Africa. There are great business opportunities in Eastern and Southern Africa, particularly places like Botswana, Zambia, Namibia. Beautiful, fairly safe and with the possibility of work. Somalia in the far future, haduu Alle i gaadhsiiyo. It is not safe at the moment. Too much dhib, too much fear. Africa is probably one of the few places left nolol raaxo leh laga heli karo today.

[/QB] Jeez, the face? The punishment doesn't fit the crime. I'm going to have to wait for what EUFA (European Union of Fatwa Advocates) magazine has to say on this. NG, sheeko. Waad ogtahay inaan kaa dheerahay.

Is the first image of Algiers? It's a beautiful shot.

^ Sidaa fudud soontu uma jabto. Haye, I'm raising my fingers for Sunday I'A. (Happy now, NG?)

Awliyo GPS wadata. My fingers are crossed for Sunday I'A.
