^^ Those therapists of yours would actually argue that they have not been "lost" but rather "found". So, maybe, it's a good idea to refer her to them after all. Win-Win situation.

^^ The chances are that the "therapist" will end up joining them in reading the scriptures and feeling guilty himself (or herself). Do not underestimate the power of faith, JB.

^^ Yaa reet! War barigii aan o tegi "Taxi" mo laheen. Imikoo mala ilbaxay oo Norf iyo Alpha "magaalada" wareejiyaay.

^^ Oo "telefoonkaa" hadoo dhaco ma adoo xaas iyo caroor dhix fadhiyaa ayaad qaban? War "kitchen cupboardka" la ii qaatay.

^^ She doesn't need a therapist, not yet. She just needs to relax. There are far too many highly strung people around (Muslims and otherwise).

^^ I thought a fataal was a pimp. What's with the underwear story there warya? Showqi, Mid walba hadoo laba qof xambaarsado ma meel oo budh ku sito ayaa o hadhay? Wax aan ka baqo ma jro. Sarrifka na waan sitaa.

^^ Naah. The writing was so dull (even for someone like me) and after every story there is an EXPLANATION for the appropriate use of the joke. It's a funny book but for totally different reasons than the author intended. You should get it. nuune, Malika smiles everytime she reads anything you write (she said so). p.s. A macawis has no pockets, badow yaho.

^^ Heh. Oo adigu maxaad o bixin laheed ninkaan labada qof sita? Aaah! Gartay, waa "Taxi" iska dheh.

^^ Sounds like Taxi & Fataal are interchangable words in H town.

Picture yourself downloading one of these apps. Imagine looking at these guys and then going on to do the "test", what man in his right mind is going to get "jealous" as they observe you doing that? Wax fahan.

^^ NO Imam is going to tell you what I'm about to tell you now (well, unless it was Faroole). You need to "chill", dear. Perfection is impossbile. Do the best you can and as long as you know you have done your best, you are ok. Going on a pilgrimage from Imam to Imam and forum to forum is going to drive you crazy. Again, "CHILL".

^^ War wan ku so celiyaay dee. Ninkano waa solane oo wuxu moodayaa dadka oo dhani in ay sidiisa bila camal yihiin. Ya o sheega inaan habeen iyo maalin ba ciyaal yaryar Blackberry-ga ka ilaalinayno (it was in the kicthen cupboard all weekend). p.s. Norf, even though I did not go to the event I did recieve a book that was being sold there (Diiwaanka qosolka). I have looked through it since and read some of the (supposed) funny stories there. I don't think I smiled even once.

^^ I still reckon we'll give it a good go for the title, tacbaan yaho. No team looks that good this year. But we're creating so many chances that we should be top by now. Anyway, I don't think City will win the title (early days and Mancini is made enough to blow it all away in another fit of rage). I don't think United will win the title because of how weak their midfield is (even if they got schnieder). They need a DM not an AM/playmaker. I also don't think Arsenal (even though they recovered and will aim for top four) are going to win the title. This leaves us and Chelsea (have you had a look at our final ten games for the season? Easiest run in ever).

It was quite a ding dong for Chelsea. But I still think they'll challange for the title.

^^ Indeed. But you only get beaten by force of sheer numbers, not ability or cunning (though Zack does let you down here and there).

Morning all. Norf, I see you still didn't say if you understood the word (forget Sayid coming to your rescue). Juxa, walaal, shakiga jooji. I'm always nice to you and, anyway, I don't really know these "cousins" you speak about (well, except Ibti and Ibti is not here anymore). Dadkan kale barasho heerka nagama dhexeeso. Wax fahan.

^^ Is that all it took to make you change your mind? What if they're playing "good cop" and "bad cop" here? In exactly the same way that you and Zack do! War naga daaya.

^^ You really want answers? War your questions sound rehtorical dee. Still, I'll indulge you and ask you to assume that the reply to all these questions was negative, what then?

Everyone is coming with their bucket; some draw water and others draw laughter. Horn got himself plenty of fresh water here (lets hope he doesn't stick his finger in though).

If you ask anyone about Somali politics, they’ll tell you that it is very complicated and hard to explain. There are far too many players, fiefdoms, dormant warlords and a make believe TFG that is (usually) at war with itself. The optimists, of course, will argue that the small details do not matter much and that the only real conflict is between said TFG and Al Shabab (whom I deliberately omitted from the above list). On the other hand, the sceptical will argue that the Somali problem is a free for all (including outsiders). This has always been the case and the argument (on either side) could never be won. Yet, suddenly, the clouds are clearing, the birds are beginning to tweet and the SUN of Azania is casting a shadow over the whole of Somalia. Why Azania and for what reason? Well, Azania is dividing opinion like never before and exposing the liars, cheats and duplicitous. It is making a mockery of that big joke that is Somali Nationalism and complicating the entry criteria to that exclusive club. Because of Azania, The Zack can no longer claim (with any level of seriousness) to be a nationalist. Because of Azania, Che is driven into the fantasy world of MMA where all is well with the world and the clock has stopped in 1985. Because of Azania, Xiin can’t maintain nor present a cohesive argument for his bogus nationalism and is forced to fight his cause away from the murky old reefs of Somali nationalism and in the open waters of Kismaayo instead. Because of Azania, my fellow Slanders are enjoying a chance to have a dig at Ghandi’s lot and prove that the hypocrisy is all encompassing and widespread. Unlike Somaliland, Puntland and all the other “lands” of the former Somali republic, Azania seems to be the one that most divides opinions. It is the one that, in the eyes of some mad people, has suddenly rendered the menace of Al Shabab irrelevant! It is the one that made little old Kenya the biggest monster to ever set feet in Somali territory. But Azania also unites! It is the one that proved once and for all that there is no such thing as Somali nationalism. It proves that Clan is, indeed, everything. I am wholeheartedly with A&T on this one. In fact, I go a step further and welcome the Kenyan invasion. Because, the way I see it, Somalia’s worst enemy today is Al Shabab. This group does not fight from a clannish viewpoint and is hell-bent on destroying all that stands in its way. I also support the Kenyan invasion because it is separating the wheat from the chaff and making many people come to the table of discussion with their real faces on. Even the greatest fantasist would agree that Somali has serious problems (and Che does by the way). Azania is only the latest increment to be added to these problems. But, I believe, Azania could be the key. It can be the one that brings this phony state tumbling down and, may be, help us all to define our nationalism in a clear and logical way. p.s. A&T is mocking an attitude of certain (or was that cretin) Somalis in the first part of his original post.

^^ Don't let them distract you, saaxib. For once, you're on the right track and are making perfect sense.

^^ The Islamic courts? Hamas? Hezbuallah?

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone, Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone, Silence the pianos and with muffled drum Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come. Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead, Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves, Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves. He was our North, our South, our East and West, Our working week and our Sunday rest, Our noon, Our midnight, Our talk, Our song; We thought that his nationalism would last for ever: We were wrong. The stars are not wanted now: put out every one; Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun; Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood. For nothing now can ever come to any good. (With apologies to A H Auden). Samir iyo Imaan, A&T. Xiin real nationalist ayuu ahaan jiray.

^^ No money was involved. Only threats of violence.
