Aaden got it. I guess the hint helped. Aaliya, haye where you were then in '86? On the clouds? Farancab, qadaadkeyga ma dheeree wuu dhuubanyahay. Laakiin ciyaalka dhan wey sii jeedaan kee ka wadaa taloow.

Nice sawiro, C/naasir. Some enterprising entrepreneur should raise, then export those doonfaaro to Shiinaha iyo Kuuriyada.

Waa iska caadi. I hope the sister in red dirac doesn't see this. Hayeey. Haye, you two, how old were you in 1986? I know Daa'uud dhaybar u xirnaa then, but you too as well? Again, guess again. Hint: I am not in the second picture nor being kan ookiyaalaha iyo qamiiska qabo. I dislike qamiis, never wore it in my life.

I can't believe I would say this: Of all last those past 18 years, I am kinda now missing the warlord years era. At least dadkaas laaluush iyo wax kale lagu qancin karee. Xoolo alif ba ta soo dhigan baa diin iyo kitaab wax ku xukumeynaa ku leh maanta.

Ciid day, circa 1986, at home among with brothers and a sister. Can one guess which one MMA is? [No, I am not the Larry King wannabe one with suspender.] Brothers and a sister at home again. I remember that day like it was yesterday. My sister (the one in red dirac) took tons of pictures that Ciid day, today the pictures scattered around the world along with my siblings. _____________ Pictures waa laga saaray. The post achieved its purpose. Only good SOLers had seen it. Gadaal ka gaariyaasha looma ogala inay arkaan.

How come there is no 'Keenadoon' name. Magacyada doonka leh diid kuma arkeysid, kuwa diidka ahna doon malaha. Qof la yiraahdo Abtidiid maa jiro? Ama Sheekhdiid? Waxaa igu darnayd markaan arkay qof wato magacaan suuban ee Keenadiid, u badalayna magaciisa "Kennedy." What the... How low one would get.

Q. How old are you? A. I forgot my age since I was involved in all these wars. Q. Really? A. I was born in 1966. Q. How many children do you have? A. We have an expression in southern Somalia that when people ask you how many children you have, we say, “We’re good.” I hope that may be enough. Q. Are you 42 or 43 years old? What month were you born? A. What’s in this question? Why is it so important? Q. In the newspaper I work for, we don’t put “1966” as an age. We put the exact age, in years. A. O.K. I was born in January 1966 . Yea, why is it so important to them. Gaalada and their one's age obsession. Join the league, Md. Shariif. Reer First January, of course.

Cawaale, erey u dhigmo ereygaas in uu Afsoomaaliga ku jiro ma moodi, closest that I can think of is ganaax. Ganaax usually means being fined.

You are only debating and debating about Al Shabaab. Believe me Al Shabaab are more nationalist than you are because they are against Ethiopia whereas you are with Ethiopia. You don't want to free the Somali region in eastern Ethiopia and North Eastern Kenya. Who is 'you' aad ku celcelineysid? And if they, those misguided Dhalinta la baxay, are against Xabasho, Xabashada meelee joogaan waala yaqaanaa, certainly not at Isbitaal Martiini they shelled the other day, ironically, a hospital that currently hosts the brave injured men who gallantly fought in the name of our nation. Now intii daryeel iyo gargaar permanent ah la siin lahaa, axsaankooda loogu dhigay shelling and massacring them, done by your lovely 'heroes.' Again, a reminder: Xabasho dhulka Soomaaliyeed ee joogaan waala yaqaanaa, ee ha aadaan, maatidaan Soomaalida masaakiinta xabbadda iyo madaafiicda ka daashay haka hirgalaan madaafiicdooda maqalkiisa. Then we will see if the majority of Soomaalis will be against them as they do now.

Dad iyo dalba midkood ma dooran, ee duunyada duurjooga ayaan doortay. Mida kalena qaran iyo qabyaaladba midkoodba ma dooran lahayn, ee qashin ayaa doortay. Waa xaal Soomaali.

So in the other words, "forfeit." Erey u dhigma maa laga waaye afkeena? War maxee afkeena ku ciyaareen dadkaan shabakooyinka wax kusoo daabaco sheegtana warbaahinta inay u shaqeeyaan.

The good doctor, Mr. Weinstein, seems always to have the problems and where they originate from figured out. He also like to criticize those who bravely offer the solutions. He hardly, laakiinse, offers any solutions of his own on the protracted problems he continuously cites again and again in his reports about Soomaaliya. I can understand he doesn't want to be part of the intricate problem, though that would make him being part of the problem he routinely comments about, a talking head who is scholarly benefiting from the Soomaali political problems. Or worse, an uninitiated outsider, a naive one at that.

The point is, man like Sharif, Sharmarke, and the rest of this TFG cricus are not going to get us out of our mess. Matter of fact the TFG is actaully making things worser. How? And kuwa Dhalinta la baxay are the 'angels' and 'saviours' sent to save the Soomaali nation miyaa? Of course all of current players seeking power can be accused being rotten and corrupt, and I can kinda agree to a stretch. However, so-called Dhalinta is the worst of them all. They don't have Soomaali and Soomaalinimo interests at heart, far from it.

at the Soomaali football jersey. Where did he get it from, though it is home-made one. This guy is really into Soomaali stuff. Good to know. Have you met the best player to touch a soccer ball, at least in my consideration -- the Romanian Gheorghe Hagi (or as we Soomaalis called him Xaaji)?

Coincidently, during in the midst of praying salaadda taraawiixda earlier tonight, I remembered -- or sheydaan made me to remember -- either case, I remember waa aan Afgooye joogay and ciyaalka Afgooye waxee qaadi jireen markee roob rabaan: Illaahayoow roob noo keen Rabiyoow raxmaan roob noo keen...

Calankeena ayaaba ugu soo jiidasho badan compared to other four, always standing out.

at mijinta. Odeyaasha inay qayilaan ma ogeyn.

I don't think I can remember most of filinimo I watched and how they ended. Usual Suspects laakiin completely got me blank who the villain was until I was well into 3/4 of the movie. I don't know if it was a best ending, but No Country for Old Men's ending made you remember.

Masiibooyinka long-term ah waa waxaa ka naxsanahay dadkeena iyo dalkeenaba sugeyso. Runtii mar mar ka fikiraa geedihii sidii loo jaraaye waala dhameeye, which would result abaaro aan kala dhamaad lahayn, which the countries is already increasingly experiencing. And baddiina sun laga buuxiye, marka dadkeena masiibo weyn hadduu Eebba ka qabanin sugeyso, runtii. Have you also noted or seen, Bilaaloow, ciyaalka ku dhasho Soomaaliya with their abnormal births of deformed bodies increasing? Their images are splashed across Soomaali sites, soliciting some help with Soomaalida dibadjooga. Call me paranoid, laakiinse I really, however, do believe there might be some link, those hazardous wastes buried under our seas and those increasing abnormal births. Oh, don't make me also go on the expired medicines being dumped in Soomaaliya market, especially Soomaali xaasidiin ah u daran few dollars. So are expired foods those xaasidiin calooshood u shaqeystiyaal are importing.

Haye, Aaliya, ever been on that city, adi? You would've known then. Meesha sideeda kale ma xumo, though. Reer Denmark arkay musqulahooda iyagana, I've seen some of them don't have bathtubs in their musqulo. Adoo taagan qabeysanee, no romantic baths with shumacs and whatnot.

Horta yaa kashifo dadkaan and their secret locations and whereabouts? I mean they have basaasiin in their midst. Jaajuusyaal arko only .

Ninkaan how many la 'dilay.' How many times they claimed to have killed him in an air strike. I see Obama wali Bushist regime's foreign policies wadaa, violently violating other countries' sovereign airspace. _____________ Geelka, duqa, kamoon. Do you think this guy la dilay la leeyahay had Soomaali interests at heart? Soomaali Muslim ah uma naxariisan, marka don't be surprised if some Soomaalis ku farxaan dilkiisa, asaga iyo wixii la aragti ahaa. No surprising. Ninba wuxuu kasbado ayaa u timaato in the end. One's actions will always catch with him or her.

Dhulkaas lagu hardamaayo iyo haraagga ka muuqdo la yaabanahay. Ar Soomaalidaa.
