Naa heedhe I'll tell you a secret that worked for me for years. It's an old secret that has been in my family for years, my mother would kill me, but i'll share it with out of the goodness of my heart. Ready, get a pen and a paper Cusbur iyo cilaan with a little bit of warankiilo, then add timir, yaanyo, bisbaas(smear bisbaas under the eyes specially it will take the puffiness away)Let it marinate for 1/2 a day, then wash with hot water.Peel your skin off and for sure you'll stop traffic, or they may run over you, but it's a sign of respect.

I've actually seen a tiny man beating up his huge wife... I wondered why is she not stomping on his a$$. I would have cooked some oil and dump it on him while he is sleeping, then his a$$ would be in the burned victims unit for decades.

Ajaf dijiniji wajaan kajasajaa, bajut ijif nojoowajan ejels kajan unjerstajaan wajad ijis daja sujuus. Kajamajoon gajaays, dijilcijiyaja wajaxaja. Pijiis ajout!

I love my sisters who wear hijab, but it isn't neccessary to wear every single color in the rainbow at ones. Yellow hijab, with purple shirt, with poker dot neon green/pink skirt with red sneakers and a blue bag. You don't want to look hideous. To get back on the subject something that matches couldn't hurt. I actually thought about designing stylish clothes for Somali ladies. From indha-shareerato to hip hop chicks @ some point. I would have called it FYBM For you by me

Baydan----- girl where yu work @ Big Daddy's Chicken N' Waffles

Blue- there is actually more to the story but i didn't want ppl to get tired of reading. If anyone would like the rest of the story let me know.

I have wierd co-workers There is the stingy one who always asks for money, but never wants buy lunch when it's "jiq" on you. There is the closet racist who pretends he is happy that you have this job, but if he had the power, your a$$ would be fired. There is misses gossip, wants to know who, what, where, why and how? There is mister kiss-a$$ who will sell his soul to get a raise and tell on everybody, just anybody even the poor janitor who places calls on his break. There is the watch-dog who will run to the boss when you're 3 seconds late. I already killed that guy There is miss i-know-it-all who annoys everybody with this and that, who cares There is Mr. bad hygene who has flies buzzing around him at all time,nobody wants to be his friend

I thought i should share this with my people. I know it is long, but very interesting. THE NATIONAL POST: From Seattle Yacht Club to Somalian hellhole Post-Sept. 11 mass deportation sees men banished to a country they barely know By Brian Hutchinson – March 9, 2002 Until recently, Fuad Hassan Ismail lived an ordinary life. His days were simple: He awoke early, ate a quick breakfast and drove to the Seattle Yacht Club, where he performed janitorial and security work and helped with the landscaping. Born in Yemen to parents of Somali origin, Ismail was not an American citizen, but he had permission to work in the United States. By all accounts, he was a model employee at the yacht club. He was well-liked and had never missed a shift since landing his job there in 1999. "I was working, paying taxes, saving money for a house," says Ismail, 41. "I was just like everybody else." Like everybody else, except that owing to a former drug habit, he had been classified by the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) as a criminal alien and was therefore subject to deportation whenever the U.S. authorities saw fit. Early last month, on a cool and cloudy Friday morning, Ismail was putting in a regular shift at the yacht club when three INS agents approached. "I was in the parking lot, and they came up to me with a warrant and arrested me," Ismail says. "The club's general manager came outside to try and help me. But they took me away and put me in a detention facility. They wouldn't tell me why. The next day, they said they were deporting me to Mogadishu. Mogadishu? I couldn't believe it. I'd never even been to Mogadishu." He had heard of it, however. Made notorious by the film Black Hawk Down, Somalia's capital is among the world's most dangerous cities. It is a lawless, wartorn place, rife with violence and kidnappings. Mercenary warlords command most of the territory and their troops clash frequently with members of the country's unstable "transitional" government. In truth, there is no government, just anarchy. Two days after his arrest in Seattle, Ismail and several other men of Somali origin were loaded on to a U.S. government jet, one in a fleet of aircraft used to transport people in federal custody. Ismail had in his possession US$40, the clothes on his back and little else. From Seattle, the transport jet flew to several different cities in the U.S. southwest, where more Somalis were boarded. The airplane then flew to Buffalo, N.Y., where the group -- 20 men and one woman -- was transported to a large facility used to detain people in INS custody. The following day, the prisoners were moved to a U.S. air base in Niagara Falls, N.Y., and boarded on to a Boeing 757 private charter bound for Amsterdam. Their feet were shackled and each prisoner had one arm tied to their seat. They were joined by six Somali citizens removed that day from various detention facilities in Canada, the National Post has learned. According Rejean Cantlen, a spokesman with Citizenship and Immigration Canada, four of the six Somalis from Canada were serious criminals who had resisted removal in the past, sometimes violently. He would not provide details, such as their names or the nature of their transgressions. The other two were not criminals, but were in violation of Canada's Immigration Act. People in that category include failed refugee claimants and those whose visitor permits have expired. The Boeing 757 left Niagara Falls at three o'clock in the afternoon, Feb. 11. Fifteen private security officers and one medical doctor were also on board. There were no U.S. or Canadian immigration officials on the flight, which is unusual in such deportation cases. "We didn't send our officers to Somalia because of the situation there," Cantlen said. He refused to elaborate. He did not have to: Somalia is one of the most dangerous places on Earth. The country is suspected of harbouring Muslim terrorists, including members of the al-Qaeda network. Neither Canada nor the United States maintain a diplomatic presence in Somalia, and both governments warn its citizens against travelling there. "Canadians there should leave," notes the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade. "The security situation is dangerous, particularly in ... Mogadishu. ... Canadians are at risk of kidnapping, murder or arrest without notice or apparent cause.... There is no national government in Somalia to offer general security or police protection.... Fighting continues among local militias and clans, and all forms of violent crime, including murder, kidnapping, looting and banditry, are common." After a brief stop in Amsterdam, the Mogadishu-bound prisoners were flown to the small African republic of Djibouti, on the Gulf of Aden. They spent one night there, crammed into a single jail cell with no toilet. The next morning, they were loaded into yet another aircraft, this one of Russian origin and piloted by a Russian crew. Their last stop was a small airport just outside Mogadishu. The group was herded by Somali soldiers into a bus and driven into the heart of the city. Trailing them were soldiers driving trucks with 50-calibre machine guns mounted on their roofs. In downtown Mogadishu, the prisoners were pulled from the bus, released from their shackles and abandoned, left to fend for themselves. Those with relatives in the area quickly scurried to safety. But Ismail had nowhere to go. His parents, of course, were Somali, but after leaving Yemen, he had lived in Somalia only a few years before entering the United States on a student visa in 1984. He knew almost nothing about the country, except that it was extremely dangerous. Mohammed Yusuf, 22, found himself in a similar predicament. Born in Somalia, he had moved to the United States with his family in 1982. Three years ago he was convicted of theft, and had been languishing in a Louisiana jail when he was deported with Ismail to Mogadishu, a city he does not know. "He's in the middle of a war zone," says his father, Yusuf Farah, from his home in San Diego. "He is from a minority tribe. The [ruling clan in Mogadishu] will kill him. Does the American government care? No. They kidnapped my son. I didn't even know he'd been deported. I was told nothing." Almost a month has passed since Ismail and Yusuf were dropped in Mogadishu. For the first three weeks, they shared a shabby hotel room with five other deportees. The rent: 10¢ a night. Most of the men have now scattered. One of them, Jama Jama Jaffar, crossed the Somalia border and is safe in Kenya. "We think he's safe," says Jaffar's brother, Awalah, from his home in Seattle. "It hurts that he was just sent away like that." Ismail has found accommodation in a private home and is planning to escape Somalia soon. In the meantime, his situation remains dire. "I'm in Hell," Ismail said this week, from a telephone in downtown Mogadishu. "There is gunfire all around me. There is fighting in the streets. I really don't want to be here." Meanwhile, he is struggling to blend into the crowd. "I arrived here dressed like an American, talking like an American," he explains. "I feel like a target. I'm a stranger here. I don't belong. I don't know why I'm here. It's mind-boggling. This isn't my home. It never has been."

MrJibriil i'll respect your opinion, but i don't agree. Women don't have any problems having their own spot . But for you to say, men can't focus on their food because women with their "cowro" are everywhere...don't like that comment. Not every single woman goes out wearing goono dabada cankeeda joogta. We dress decent enough to go in public. I don't think there is a decent sister here who would feel comfortable to walking half-naked infront of her brother, father and cousins and so she certainly wouldn't do it at a restaurant.We want to be looked at as human beings who come to a restaurant to eat, not sex objects.

Okay if Somali restaurants are that terrible why do you keep eating there???? Bariis and hilib ari is what we're all about, what are they suppose to serve two string beans and corn. If you go to Mexiacan restaurant what do they serve, taco this and taco that. WHY?? Because 90% of their business comes from their own ppl, why would they change their menu to make 10% of the customers happy and lose 90%.Think The same goes for Somali Rest.

I've seen something similar to this on Discovery channel. Where this guy killed countless number of girls because of trap like this. Nice try Serial killer, we are way ahead of you.

Hibo and MrJB need to go date and get it over with. Don't front we can tell you like each other.I know this game, yup.

soul lady@lol hundharen freaked me out i thought i was the only person who noticed that.On the real note people have accents an it's alright, we were not born here.

Cartan brother you're gooood! that hooyo song it was buriful because i luv mi mum. Can you sing a song by Xasan Aadan Samatar markaan da'da jiray shan iyo toban, markan damac guur la soo kacay, dookhayga markaan u sahan tagay.

Blue the girl said i'm flat not i have lob-sided breasts. How often do you hear a man complaining about having his moms hips or his saggy arms. The answer is never. So are we so preoccupied with our body, fixing this and fixing that.My friend wants to remove 1/2 inch of a bone in one of her toes,because they are not even. Who the heck would pay attention to your feet. Baydan you're funny, dacas ouch!

Cartan walaalo educate me i honestly cannot diferentiate the difference between lust and love. I thought it starts with lust and eventually progresses into love. Lust is the attraction,right? so how can you be inlove with someone you're not attracted to.

Oh my god you guys are lying to these poor people. If you only knew what they were saying. Cayda joojiya, hadii kale yaa-weylan aa idinku qaadeynaa. Let's see if you understand this: mdnfj jdfn jhdjnnm jhdjccv (it's a riddle)

For many years women have been judged by their physical appearance. Men are particularly guilty of this behavior. They have created cosmetics to weight watcher programs, telling us how what we should look like. It is one thing to judge someone's appearance as far as grooming, poise, eye contact and body language, but the very idea of a women trying or maintaining to be 36-24-36 is absurd. You don't have surrender to society's pressure of looking a certain way. Your mental health is more imporant. Just remember a woman isn't what she looks like it's what she knows. Be yourself baby girl and thank god for what you've got. There are people who are physically and mentally handicaped.

Asalaamu Caleykum. Hadith of the prophet SAW The one who disdains the prayers will receive fifteen punishment from Allah. Six punishment in his lifetime Three while dying Three in the grave And three on the day of judgement. The six punishments of lifetime: 1. Allah takes away blessing from his age(makes his life misfortunate) 2. Allah does not accept his plea(Du’aa) 3. Allah erases the features of good people from his face. 4. He will be detested by all creatures on the earth 5. Allah does not award him for his good deed 6. He will not be included in the Du’aa of good people The three punishments while dying: 1. He dies humiliated 2. He dies hungry 3. He dies thirsty, even if he drinks water of all seas, he’ll still be thirsty The three punishments in the grave: 1. Allah tightens his grave until his chest ribs come over each other 2. Allah pours on him fire with embers 3. Allah sets on him a snake called “the brave”, “the bold” which hits him from morning until afternoon for leaving Fajr prayer, from the afternoon until Asr for leaving Dhuhr prayer and so on. With each strike he sinks 70 yards under the ground. The three punishments on the day od judgement 1. Allah sends who would accompany him to hell pulling him on the face 2. Allah gives him an angry look that makes the flesh of his face fall down 3. Allah judges him strictly and orders him to be thrown in hell Those who don’t say their prayers of: FAJAR: the glow of their face is taken away ZOHAR: the blessing of their income is taken away ASAR: the strength of their body is taken away MAGHRIB: they are not benefitted by their children ISHA: the peace of their sleep is taken away Brother and sisters please fear Allah, because we can’t handle his punishments. Even though, you know this already, I just thought I help and show you the right bath. May Allah give guidance to all of us. Say your prayers before the prayer are said for you. AAMEEN!!!!

Lulla abaayo, maxaa tiri lotion and chapstick. Ragii softies baa ka dhigatay. If his elbows are not ashy and he doesn't have bleeding lips, he is just not the man for me.

So a poor girl like me who has a Ph.D in the chicken factory, has no chance. I spent 8 years learning how to rif-rif, kari, sol, dub, shiil and I did my thesis on eating it.

Okay let's sing kumbaya kumbaya my lord kumbaya Let's geer our attitude and anger towards something like the jews, not each other. Nomads i don't want to have flashbacks of January 1991, not another civil war. Give thanks and praise Allah for your life and for your loved ones. Peace in Palestine, Afghanistan and most definetely Somalia.

I use to shop for my father sometimes and everytime i buy him a pair of expensive pants, i would see the legs cut off. "aabe waa maxay waxaan? heedhe lugihii aad bay u dheer yihiin, mar danbe waxaan ha ii soo gadin" Ok atleast cut them both at the same length.He is a target for the police they think he is nut case.

I onse hit on a guy named libaaxsankataabte. He came to my mother and told her "eedo gabadhaadda naftii ee ii keentay, meelaan ka galaan waayey, magaaladda inaan isaga guuraan rabaa". He posted my picture everywhere, it said wanted for harrasment. I was devistated and went under therapy. I moved out of that city and i'll never hit on a man again.

Nice guy i have not had any experience in this area. I will tell you what i know if a man tries his best it should be good enough. Assuming your woman loves you no matter what.
