Seeker, is it that enjoyable? Hmm. I would invite you if I was an insider, but I can't get my head around the wave thing yet let alone be using it. So thanks for the info. PS; don't get a trippy mind over it, OK?

Originally posted by The Zack: P.s. You fellas from other countries seem to know too much about this country. Obama made us take interest in US politics. Before him, we simply didn't waste a minute on it. Thanks to Obama.

The man is just human, only too human. And even considerate and reasoning humans must in their lives hear the word 'NO' to stay fully human. If he were to be given all then he'll be a man feared, but most unfortunately, hated and despised. Like Dubya. This time there was a more deserving city than Chicago that was just to give the bid to: Rio. It's simply world justice on its wheels - and Obama has played a crucial role in making sure there is 'justice' in the world. We should be proud of him in that context first before we judge him on this issue. And yes, Mr. Somalia, you are right. There are more urgent world injustices and wrongs that need priority than this bid.

My theory for rejecting Chicago? Cos Rio is every ageing white European male's wet-dream. The beach, the girls and oh the samba. Obama himself was caught on camera having an eyeful of a saucy babe from Brazil, right? Let alone the French president.

^Yes, sad news. What can we do to help?

^Looool@miig ku kicin waayey. 3dii kicin lahayd wa kuwaa. Waxaan ku sii qosley bog-cowro iyo xiin's 'war ninku tie dheeree'. hard to go back to look again. Xiin inuu anti-Somaliland yahay, horumarka muu arko intuu tie-ga noo tilmaamayo?

Good thing, good thing runtii. Atleast one man is willing to stay in Somalia and to kick-start change. He's doing a brilliant job. Kudos to him.

xiinoow, kismaayo ma la hadashey ninyow? xaalada waa sidee?

^juxa: 'hurdo habarba korin weydayee ma aneey hilbo i siin' dheh meeqa saac ayaad dhameyneysaa

^Morning juxa and malika

^Lol. haayeey. Laakiin hadhoow beey dhihi doonaan, tuducda jamaal waa deelqaaf, waxbaa ku qarsoon inkastoon dihay. Sxb, waa inoo hadhow, IA.

^adeer nuunoow, wa taan iri: midkii timaha soo qoystay ee madaxa loo xiiray muskii duleelaba waa in uu maqiiqda maagaaye waa inuu makkaankii tagoon mairnku siideeyne uu maalku geeyaa mooradii madowga weyneyde Marka madaxmadaxda weeye, sxb. Taraaraxa yuusan ku sirin.

Balaayo idin heshay.

^Juxa, runtaad sheegtey. Dadku waxaan filayaa da'daa dhibeysa. Balse gu'geena baanan na deyneyn si kastoon isaga indha tirnaba - marka in laysga qirto in la duqoobaayo ayaa aniga ila haboon. Some of us want to grow older and some want to grow younger. Bini Aadan xaalkii.

Buux iyo nuune, waa sidaad sheegteen. Miidaamo dhego maleh hadduu malag dhawaaqaayo, baa la yiri. Anna madax madax ayaan u galayaa.

^Alxamdulilaah, waa Illaah mahaddii. Waa la nabad qabaa oo wax bariiska diidey nagu ma jiro.

I always end up on top of the list of the oldies, and I am never complaining. It's an honour. Must be garka dheer.

Sir, yes, sir. J11 here reporting for duty, sir.

^Waa yahay. Balse arki doonnee. And now as reer Bariga say, 'hamiin wanaagsan boowe'. Waqti dhexe ayeey inagu inoo tahaye. Insha-Allaah waa inoo berri iyo subaxda hore.

Maxaa loo kala haraa ama aanan loo kala harin, sanaadiiqdiiba, meel aan laga gaari karin iyo bohol ayaad dooneeysaa inaad ku hubsato'e?

Dhaafinayaa aa? Hargeisa un ha laga fogeeyo miyaad leedahay?

qisadu maxay tahay? nuunoow, sxboow, waaba raxan raxan. kuwa aniga iskood isoo weeraray, inkastoon dhuumaalaysto, raxan tilmaan weerar ku soo qaaddey, iyo reerka uu soo taxay horey iyo mid soo socota oon hubo.. war hadmaad guursan ood hablahan iyo labada un ka dooran unbaa lagu leeyahay.. war haddaanan convenient u arkinna? weestaran baad noqotey baa la leeyahay, ninkii dhamaa ee hidaha iyo dhaqanka cudud ku taageeraayey. ...it seems there is little currency in free will and dookh. ninyoow inaan mid ay ku aamusaan ama samraan weeye bilahan inagu soo aaddan, idin Alle. xaajadu waa cakkiran xiligan. it's disturbing my precious peaceful and solitary moments to philosophise. for the last 7 years of my journey towards it, waxaan iska dhaadhicinaayey 'i have ultimately dis-engaged myself from trivial worldy things', even all my body/mind sensors baan tababaray but it seems worldy things do not detatch themselves as you think you did. the end of my own fantastic, beyond the pale voyages into locating the 'eternal truth' within my mortal breast is the only resentment i harbour - laakin i reach a milestone while in that voyage which has given me enough insight to allow jamaal to turn serious, putting a full stop to laid-backness. now i must embrace the 'real world' and be the best husband and father i am easily capable of becoming... i will let them get me in few weeks time, insha-Allah, because i simply can't afford the ransom anymore.

loool aaaamiiin, horta ma ka yaabtey hadana ma ka heshey? Alloow na hareer mari Samawada, may I be the first to welcome you to SOL forums... Soo dhowoow sxb with gacmo furan.

Innaa Lillaahi Wa Innaa Illaahi Raajicuun. Janat-ul-Firdows Allaha ka waraabsho, and may Allaah grant samir iyo iimaan to his loving wife, sons, mother iyo eheladiisa, qaraabadiisa iyo saaxiibadiis oo dhan. Walaahi waan ka naxay geerida Cabdalla. Innaa Lillaah. Aad baan ula socon jirey maqqaaladiisa dhamaantood both in Wardheernews and Dhahar.com. I was going to be introduced to him when the chance occurs but it wasn't to be. May Allaah grant him peace and paradise. He was a great nationalist thinker as much as he was an elequent writer and discussant. We will certainly miss him and Somalia will miss a great son. But we will never forget his contributions, Insha-Allaah. Samir iyo Iimaan.
