NGONGE,

 

Are you going because you have been reincarnated as Somali but was previously a Ugandan member of the Lords Resistance Army? Maybe you were the main man himself.

^You're such a drama-queen Marc. Get a grip, nin weyn baad tahaye.

 

NG.. for a second I was very excited you were going to be there and that I might run into you and it would be fun - but then I remembered your tendency to write compeletely exaggerated and false stories about people... so if you see me, dont say hi!
