^I think there should be complete overhual. LoooL@nuune.That would have been more interesting. I was sitting down, and couple minutes I heard "maqbashey" and the groom said, "haa". The wadaad said gabadha nakaaxeydo waa kun dollar. I was like I think a drug deal just went down. I was expecting something elaborate.

Duceysana and his imagination-Lord have mercy

LoooL@Nuune...I don't even know how the concept of marriage started. Ms.DD..how dear? The first ever nikaax I went to, I was wholly disappointed.

Africanqueen-Maybe adaa Af-Somali khalad ah kuhadlaaya.I guess ciyaal xaafad matihid I understood Nuune just fine. Nuune...sxb reer waaberi maas aheed?

It's an outdated institution. They should find something that replaces marriage.

People like him should be hanged!

^I was surprised the irony was lost on you when you questioned their attire. LoL@Fabregas..I'm afraid all Somalis are defeated!!

How many presidents could one country have? Good on the people though, as long as they coexist peacefully. Dude, I actually thought the video would be from Somalia

^LOL

Why are they dressed like?

A man explained inflation to his wife thus: 'When we married, you measured 36-24-36. Now you're 42-42-42. There's more of you, but you are not worth as much.' I guess we could rule out a wife as one of your possible dependents. I would cope just fine. I could last year without job, but it would be different story for person with a family. It might be good to reevaluate things, see where you are in life, and what you need to change.

^Ramadan waaye, give it rest guys midakale walaalkaa god ha,uqodin but if you do, make sure inoo aheen god dheer, there's good chance you may fall in it too!

^LooooL@contacts, that would be interesting experiment, and perhaps spray my hair or I should say all my hair blond Laakin shaqo waaye yaaka bixi kara taas.I just realised even our brother Mr. Cadaan changed his nick into indho blue . I was confusing him indhoos the other way. I guess waxii cusub caalan jecel, but no worries there will be retro look soon, and Farahs would be back. If that doesn't work I could fit my kid with blue eyes We are hijacking the thread.

^I think the reasons those marriages end is "throwing themselves" part. I mean, honey put up some fight, xoogaa sanka taagta and play some mind games. Atleast make me believe, I'm just happy or grateful to have you. Hadii kale waa easy come, easy go. *Cara takes note*

LOL@Cara I just find out through reliable sources inaan laba odey kala tirsano. I think we are good match.Let's help each other out, what's you say. I mean genetic diversity is good and all, but think of the children fatboy-I think reestablishing a relationship with husband/wife and winning their confidence, and doing so without malice would be the best way to go. International custody cases are not easy even if you do have a powerful government willing to go court on your behalf. There are many examples of American parents whose foreign espouses snatched their kids never to be seen. There's little if any the US government could do.Here's prefect example. In this particular instance, one would think since the mom died, the kid automatically go to the next of kin. Any court in the world should ideally hand over the kid to his father. I would advise not to go down that route. Just reengage the husband/wife, establish some sort of relationship and build confidence.Then try to reason with them and make them think about the welfare of the kids.

^Whatever you say Duke In the meantime, leave your cousins in Xamar alone, and go back to desert you came from.

Duke...With you, "family" is relative. You will feed to the fire should they get in your way. Duke's motto: My Brother and I against My Cousin; My Cousin and I against the Stranger. Gaweto would be called Shangoole II now

^Good quesion Duke...I know you have in Xamar as well, and you watched Tigray blew to bits-cousins kulahaa. There are your "cousins" as long as they don't oppose you.

Mr. Well Know, it's not you and I that owns that places, that's for sure.

^LOL Ok, stick with "well know"

Duke-"Well known" is not numerical fact. You have to be little more specific. Their numerosity in Mudug is not being questioned here, but within northern Galkacayo itself, how can one emprically prove that they make the major? Again "well known" is not answer. So, the city predates its modern "founders"?

Ina-Gaweto and Duke...I'm not talking north vs south, just within the north how could ascertain the population breakdown. I think people are guestimating. Duke..How old is the city?

Originally posted by General Duke: ^^^The population of the city know who the majority are. Just like in any other city, town, village in Somalia. Know how? Besides, this town has grown so much and saw large influx of "other" Somalis. What was true yesterday is not true today. Are sure Xaji Xasan was one of the founders?

How does one decide who's the majority?

^I'm four hours into it and get 9 hours to go. Juxa...Just make sure you know good attorney before you break all her bones.
