Salaan... I have an idea why don´t we have a "little tea party" at MMA´s crib Heey, heey, heey, wait a minute, will you? I live in cariish oo kor ka feedan and made from the mud of xaar lo. And my furniture consists of one thing: dirin. Dirin is my chair, I relax on it, study on it. Dirin is my dining room, I eat on it. Dirin is sali, I pray on it. Dirin is my bed, I sleep on it. And dirin is where I welcome to all my guests. It is their confortable cushion {at this time since no other thing is in there, I will stand as long as they are there}, and I welkam them all. So, if you all don't mind that--and I am sure some of you at least would mind--then sure, you are all welkam. And be my guests. Yes, each of you may bring his or her ganbar. Or his/her kursi jiif. That would be wonderful. And yes, also each of you might bring dhalo vimto {remember it? Yeah, how I miss it, fiimto dheh bo}. So, see, my life is simple. I live like that. The Legend of Zu would even envy my simplicity of life. That is his dream; in order to achieve that attainment, he went to as far as to ShiyangShiyang {Xinjiang} province, in the deep mountainous region of Shiinaha. Ahlaan, Kool-Kat, Barwaaqo, Canbaro-Luul, Stockholm-Lady and as of every good nomad on this site, I would really love to meet you all. But, I am maskiin, so I am a patient man. I would wait until the match is over. It is a match because it seems it is two-by-two one. So, I would go with partyaashii iyo nomadyaashii soo haro. I would hang out with them. :cool: Those would be enough with me. And I am sure that Canbaro-Luul, Kool-Kat, Stockholm-Lady, Barwaaqo, Ahlaan inee soo hareynin. Kuwa ugu horeeyo lala kaco aa tihiin. But, iradaa idinku sugaa, just in case kuwaa is raacdiin hadii aa isku soo saniftiin. _________________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... Most Soomaalis, in these days as was in old, use nicknames. Some are popular, and do last with that person, eventually even changing his/her real name to become the real name associated with that person. Ever wonder why we have weird qabiil names? Our forefathers never had these ‘qabiil’ names we use today; they used to have ordinary names, whether in Soomaali or Muslim. But, they had been given nicknames, which gradually and eventually became known as the qabiil’s name we know today. Today, Soomaalis do have peculiar nicknames. Some do match with the person, characterizing the person’s appearance, or his thoughts, or his behaviour, or his actions, etc. Anyway, is there any particular nickname that 'seemed' strange enough to you? If so, name it here hee. Back in my high school, we used to have two guys who used to have offensive nicknames. They were so nasty nicknames that don’t suit this family-oriented site. Anyway, I will spare the nastiest one, but I have to list the other, which is: Laxwase. :eek: Yaa Allaah!! And the funny thing is when you call the guy with that nickname, he would turn back as though just responding to his real name. I couldn’t really believe the first day when I heard others calling him that spiteful name and that he would respond positively. God, how Bini Aadenka are different. Other funny nicknames that I heard: Liiqliiqato {actually, a politician}. Miyiikoole. Sac Jibiye {actually a Chinese kaaba laadar character from a famous movie stared by Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan, which I don’t remember which one was now. That character would disjoint a cow’s neck, hence ‘sac jibiye’}. Abaloota-abaa-Abaana. Cagamadhige {a famous announcer; yeah that obnoxious guy who introduces every SINGLE new album from the Qurba these days, especially that Qabrigii Jaceelka album, kan ku haayo waaye Seynab Cige-Cige-Cige...And yeah, he lives in Toronto too, asagoona fitishaari dheer aa maalin walba arkee}.

Salaan... Funny, but walashiis, 'office work' does not concern us. Anaga waxaa tumnaa warehouse, so bring warehouse jokes. Possibly, drop that SunShine Girl from that tabloid. Yeah, in order to know the current events, we have to read that fake paper. Including that GIRL on the last page. LoooooooL. Yac dheh. Maan, that paper, how I hate it. I promised myself never, never buy it, let alone read it.

Salaan... Waraa, Haruuuun, LoooooooooooL. Kac waraa, xayoow faraha kaqaad hee. Xayoow kuwii waxaan soo alifey waaye, oo qatari saana eh. Laba xayoow aa sheekeysanaayi. Macoow aa Tooxoow weydiiyey, "Aree Toox, rajabeeto xay tartaa?" "Yihooy iga aamu." "Ar runteey waaye, rajabeeto xay tartaa?" "Eeh, Mac, yihooy hada ma ogid maa i dhihi rabtaa?" "Xaas kale hee." "Ar walax raaracee roojisaa ee iga aamu." God. Walax raaracee roojisaa!!!!!! Maan. Maalintii waxaas maqley, maalintaas dhan waa qoslaayi.

Salaan... ...as long as we got along in all other aspects. I hope I got it right on one aspect. O dear, on that aspect surely doesn't need any education. Assuredly, faarax can handle that for as certain as...his cali falaax. Whether even he has a Ph.D. from that old Oxford or he is a real geeljire. That OTHER ASPECT indeed is easy for faarax. God, it is one of these messages that I can't pass. Barwaaqo hoos aa noo gilisay, but we got it finely. Qatari cadiim runtii.

And we do understand it like that way. How perfect it is, too. Ooooh, God. Who do I want to see? Hmm...But, since I am baqeel oo $$ ka baxeynin, I ain't gonna meet no one outside of my street {forget about the xaafad or even in my city, I am talking about my square only }. If anyone lives down there, good. But, only two blocks to right and left must be the limit. Otherwise, I ain't gonna see no one. Well, let me see again. Tonight since I am full of xalwo iyo mac macaankeed, I am going to do a special thing. I will honour the good sisters! I will list most of them nomads; and nah, how they order doesn't matter, really since I am listing every nomad of her who posted close to or more than 50 posts with QUALITY, not only quantity--and that is the reason. Feel good with me then tonight. Noo. It doesn't mean I want to meet ALL of those. God, noo. As I said in the above, I would only meet those DOWN FROM MY BLOCK ONLY.

Salaan... I dreamed a thousand new paths... I woke and walked my old one. A Chinese saying. ___________________ Jamaal, brother, enlighten me a bit. I did undertand that what you are trying to say or implying is that nomadism is for some reason related to aggresiveness or hostile environment? If so, well, I don't know. It might be true, since a nomad's life is always harsh, especially where the climate is humid and dry. ...from baydhabo janaay are less explossive in terms of atitude than others, unless forced You mean...? By the way, Soomaalis never appreciate the little things of life. In our root culture, I guess, we never had a chance to learn by appreciating life to the fullest. To anyone or anything. When we mean to praise, we critisize, even though in our heart we mean to admire that thing or person. That is the way it is. You rarely see a Soomaali that appreciates or applauds something. The harshest dacaayad is in the aroos. Howsoever you try to please your guests on your aroos, they will always have a way to discredit it. "Did you see her face? Too much boorbaro...Did you see the bride? She never deserved him...Did you eat the bariis? It was so qaleel, even ari ma cuni laheen!..." We enjoy that. ________________ Macsalaama!

Salaan... Absolutely and definitely, I would say C/raxmaan C/casiis Sudeysi. :cool: Others are merely in sub-categories. This man has a VOICE! Voice with a CAPITALIZED words. He can easily be the best singer {to me at least} if his voice accompanied by some musical instruments. But, he is our xafidul Quraan oo Sheekh eh. Some say it is C/baasid {or is it C/basiit?}. Some say the best Quraan reciters reside in Masar. Well, to me, it is none other than that Sheekh. And you must agree with me. Or else. Feer iyo faralaab dhab eh aa laguu karsinaa hadii diidid. And the last vital reason I choose him, Sheekh Sudeysi is the Grand Imaam of masaajidka Al-Xaraam in Makka Al Makkurama. He is the primarily imaam when it comes to the salaatul Tarawiix and Leylatul Khadar on the Ramadaan. If he was merely a good reciter, he wouldn't hold a position like that that long. Noo. And yes, is it me or that this Sheekh has double voice, interchanging simulteneously. Is this a foolish of me or is it true? Some friends of mine say he got TWO voices. And changes his tune whenever he pleases. Surprisingly, his both voices are as good as one another. ________________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... Barwaaqo and rest of London folks, some facts about London. What I will list will be true, because almost close to 100 of my immediate family members live there. And hardly a week goes by someone calling from there, telling us how this or that the place is, mostly negative. I must admit: I never visited it. Everytime I want to visit, something happens. But, surely upcoming months, I will. And the facts. Those will only be facts, according to my brothers, sisters, uncles, uants, cousins, etc. This is what London is: No Enough parking space. You can't park your small car even. Your park your car right next to your house. Or even small appartment if you live. No side yard. No greenery in the city. Restricted side walks. No two person can walk at the same time and pass each other. Landhan needs land. Public phone. You can't put one quarter and talk as long as you want. Noo. Unlike North America, in London you have to constantly put your cents, dimes, etc in order to keep talking. What a world! If you do have a licence, but don't have a car, you can't drive another car. You can only drive YOUR car. The taxis. Even Kenya tagsiyadii yaaley aa dhaamo. Especially, tagsiyadii Joomo Kenyata Airport ka shaqeyn jirey. Modelled in same style. Old buildings. Old people. Old Queen. Old Monarchy. Old Clock. Old Greenwich Mean Time. Old trains {and expensive}. Old Baarlamaan--and this barlamaan seems like a circus game. Everyone is shouting. A politician whistling. Maan. Yes, while the prime minister is in a speech, they can protest by whistling--Fiiq Fiiq :eek: --or pounding their fists. Some even do sacbis or throw objects to other members of this Losers House {and they say this is democracy in full, maan}. Even this baarlamaan is full tight. No space. The Blair Witch waxuu isku cariirinaa laba wasiir dhexdiis. My Lord. You don't have to know your neighbour. None knows his/her neighbour. There was this story on BBC a couple of years ago. This old man died in his house and none discovered him after five years. :eek: He had children. He had neighbours. He lived in the centre of London. And he died in his house and none discovered for five years, well besides his bones. Can you believe that? And I am not even talking about the weather. The constant rain. I heard some part of that country, rain plays like a jarkaboodooy game. In the morning, it rains, afternoon a quick sunshine, and again, it rains. Maan. The mass-circulated cheap jaad, too. Jaad iyo mahaas gacan aa u daaye. I know yaqeey. I might have been biased. But, as far as I listed that, I am sure some are as true as they seem. Reer London ha igu sanifina yaah. It is all some kaftan lee yaqeey. _______________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... Aamina and Mujaahid, I hate to disappoint you. Especially, Aamina. Fine? You mean these folks are fine: This is your representive team from Yuu-Kee {UK}. Look at them. Just look at them. Look the guy on the far right side. My God! Is that a belly or what??!! Even Homer Simpson doesn't have a belly like that. And he is playing banooni with that belly. Oh, Lord. It is about time the guy got a reason to explain what gym means these days and why doesn't he go there--according that belly. Teeda kale, what is the all-white jerseys? Is it their kafan? I mean, I had never seen all-white jersey. That explains it all. The guys don't even have a sense of fashion, let alone a stylish game. Now, yes. Look how FINE Banaadir folks are: Look our homie boys. Maba u dhawaan kartiin. Calool kuusyaasha aa keensateen, oh baliis, naga ceshta. And don't send them back next year. I only seen the final game, still I can imagine how England played with that GUY. _________________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... What a game! ______________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... Of course ciyaal suuq. They know some stuff of you-know-what-I-mean. By considering to the other group, they seem to belong in the middle path. At the top are ciyaal fay cali and ciyaal tokyo. Isbishiini or Isbatoore? Qaarkiin maba kasi doonaan. That is my betting. ________________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... Rafaad iyo Raaxo. Lakiin, Lakkad, abkoow abkoow. Dumaashi aa la damcaa aah. Mayaa. Fiiri hee Ma Damci Lahayd Dumaashidaa yaa ku jirey? Iikar Jeesto {Ilahaa u naxariisto} maa ku jirey? Inaa fiirsadey ma xasuusti nooh. Kumi or Taano?? I know which one the baqeelyaasha will choose. _______________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... Shaqsi: Haye, kaaba do you really want to hear all of these stories? Hokey, iga qabso hee sheekooyinkaan. ________________ Afar maraa la igu soo daadiye {biyo kuleel, that is}. Sadax mar aa kabbo {kabbo taako eh, that is} la iga soo daba tuurey. Shan mar dharbaaxo yaa Carab hoo qabso hee la i dhahey. Laba mar feer iyo faralaab aa la igu saqarjoojiye {xaliimo saniftey waa feertamee miyaa mise...}. Hal mar salboolada dhexdeed aa hal qanjaruufo la igu dhajiye {xaaax, xanuun badanaa, caashadaas xaasid xaasidiina ay ahayd }. Timo jareernimadeey canbuulonimada eh hal maraa la rifay {meel walbaa ka buusnaa nooh oo kuwii horaa isoo buusbuusay, tan marka timaheey ayba aadey}. All of these happened because of this reason {and try not to laugh}: That is right. That is my face. And upon seeing it, every xaliimo faints because I told them from the net that I looked so cool and perfect. I know, I know. It was my fault to tell them that I looked that good. For those who weren't good enough to faint gave me the above mentioned punchlines. None give themselves a chance to know me what is in my heart. And how sad. I am still crying. Istif-Istif-Istif Noo, kool-kat, blossom, rock's chick, noo, I don't need no comfort for now. Dankis, but no dankis. _________________ Shaqsi, honestly brother, there is no interesting story that happened to me personally. Oh, yes, there was one that was so good, and this one can't be mentioned. After that, nothing that seems interest. Good or bad. Ee marka saas waaye. Nice topic, by the way. And is that business of yours still open? I mean can I invest in it? Kamoon. And when it comes it to be like Enron or WorldCom, my money will be on the desk. Or feer iyo feerkiis. I don't care inside trading. Or lousy accounting. My money is my money. And I expect, whethere there is a bankruptcy or not, my money back. And fast. Or face the furious. _________________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... Nuune, mey erti widaayow? Tiiem aah. Ebidkaa ma isoo marin. Mise bii-em aa ka wadaa. Carab gajahaa taacun. Lakiin xariifka waxaa isoo xasuusisay markii dagaalka dhacaayi anaga ciyaalkeen waxaan aa qaadi jirney: Madfad kaare, hoobiyo jiib; bii-em bagaase, bee-bee shee; em sigistiin {M-16} dhaawac maleh, saar sideedan sidaaso kale... Ar wey socon jirtey. Maan. Can I have a third speller? I mean a third singer. You know these two are far from what I consider my own sound singers. Hmm, kamoon, allow me to say a third party. And aheey, the third party is Shimaaaaaali Axmed Shimaali Yaa heestiis iloobi karo. Shamsooy...Kasheegee, kuu sheegee kaa sheegeeye kusii sheegeeyee, kasii sheegeeye... Xariif Xaaji dheh. I might also say Sulfa. Hokey, hokey. If you insist I have to draw one of them. C/qaadir Jubba or Xasan Aadan Samatar. Hmm... I would say Xasan Aadan Samatar. See, maay-maay markii uu ku heesaayo lee fahmi karaa. Xariish or Mundul?? ________________ Macsalaama!!

Salaan... Of course, fadhi carbeed. Maaan. Soomaali waa ilbaxdey nooh, walaahi, almost 50% guryaha maanta Soomaaliya familkood dagan yihiin fadhi carbeed ay qabaan, which is so good. Haye, game-kaan wali waa socdaa miyaa bo? Hokey bo. Xaaji Qamsiin or Caasi Waalidiin??? Oobis, yaqeey of course I hope you know what I mean. Xaaji Qamsiin iyo Caasi nooh. Basaskii Xamar Cadeey. __________________ P.S.: Dadkiin kuhaayo this game is getting bored. Jidka noo baneeya, bil axsaan. Ferma bil fafagoore. Xoog ma'aha. Either participate or keep afkaa as silent as it was markii fud laguugu soo siiye aduunkaan {or if you were crying at that time, keep crying}.
