^^^Did you read all this? or acting, woow too much to read! Read only the beggining, quite intresting, may be some other time.

^^^Forgive me for not reading the whole topic, But was She Somali? Im puzzled

Nothing much to say about the topic. Fact: Love or loath it, Somali lady will remain to be nothing but Somali lady. Fact: We have the most beautiful girls on earth between the age of 17 to earlier twenteith, suddenly everything changes boyond that age, does this apply to all woman or solely to our girls and whats the matter? Lack of exercise or too much Xalwad Kismaayo Hold on your horses, girls Im only joking

Seems good story, I never read the book but I will make the effort to see the Fillm, Even though I don't like these kind of films the story seems a tad intresting! Stoic, so do you reckon your day was not spoiled?

Yep we grow old by the day! A short while ago it was 2005, and now 2006. It's like daily Business routine. Ali once said " It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I just beat people up." How can I congratulate and give my condelences in one sentence, a bit tough, isn't it? Ilaahay ha Unaxariisto for the loss of our loved ones, Aamin For the married, Cograts to you all, enjoy

^^Walahi qoftan way ifahantahay, reer magaalad wayn baa tahay Ina Abti you are right, and for that reason you got my vote... So far I found someone to vote for, she understood my logic therefore I believe not only is she from my clan but my LAF(JILIB) or let me just say CANQAW Rowda isku Canqaw ama Suxul baa nahay and My long due undecided vote goes to no one but ROWDA

Still Undecided SOL members are too clever to find out, even those in the Politics section have mastered the art of lurking May be tomorrow, time to sleep now Cheers

What? voting is on? so Who am I gona vote for, I don't know anyone to vote for, so let me see who can I vote for and based on what? Who is my tribe mmh.... who's my tribe who's my tribe who's my tribe? If u r I will.. Who's my tribe? I don't kno anyone yet, let me just go to the politics section and get some valuable info that will assist cast my vote in a meaningful way Next time I come back, I vote for whoever I think is my....

Hablaha lugaha maba lahanee maa la iska daboolo, haday leeyihiin xataa xogaa waa lafiirsan kari lahaa, Waa caagag.

This is sad news as it reports the loss of innocent lives. But this fight is one of the most principled southern conflicts, I must admit, that I have heard in recent years. One sub-clan is surely engaging in a worthy cause. The other sounds a bunch of scofflaws, to me any way, that need be stopped. Absolutely I agree with you there pal, Support support, War nothing is good about it, but surely its about time this extreme burning charcoal exporting should be stopped? and Whoever stands for that deserves our support.

"We do know of certain knowledge that he [Osama Bin Laden] is either in Afghanistan, or in some other country, or dead." I like this one.. Never left a chance, remove all doubts, cleverly responded as he claims, he could be in America?

This decision is allowing the federal government to eavesdrop on our phone conversation without notifying us. I thought they already do this in American, don't they? Here in the UK once the British intellegence did same thing to the Secretary General of the UN Mr Kofi and listened his coversations. There and then cabinet member Clair Short blew the whistle, weeks of political discourse followed, the don Blair and his cronies felt the heat few days, later as ussual overcame all odds and got on with his life, he is the big don here! They don't ussually do that in America? Noah?

2005 - anything special? let me just remember, nothing unussual at all. 2006 Insha'alah will be OK.

Rage on ladies... Honestly I never expected the guy could cause this rage, Fantastic I should say! I gave it to you boy, they even vote for you, I only say well done!

^^^Orgilaqe thats a bit extreme don't you think, Sxb be sensible and think twice before you post. However, It makes sense why some people believe between 1884 -1960 was the golden age of the Northwest. Tribal lines of thinking, at this day and age for someone to hold that view, Very sad indeed. Certainly not the case of Good old days but one of the darkest era's of our history, being in a dark page at moment does not necessarily mean golden times are not forthcoming in our life time.

Hard to explain or define. You think it is easy i beg to differ. not many are able to explain or define what is excatly the somali culture? Whats so hard about Somali culture, what part of it don't you understand? Generally culture of people could be difined or identified how they behave from their social intercation to beliefs, arts which includes linguistic and other traditional plays. Are you saying none of that Somali posses or rather never heard about it thus want to be educated and be taught our culture. I'll set the stage for Ducaqabe to give you a bit of our eternal wisdom or better use of the lingo to stunningly bring full attention of your audience, Perhaps a taste of "Ragoow kibirka waa lagu kufaa kaa ha la ogaado" Abwaan Ismaaciil Mire. That is one(not all bear in mind) of the classic Somali culture rather stricking weapon, that can be used to either cause havoc or create peaceful situation. I must say thou, it is not as influential nowadays as it used to be in our Somali hey era. Ducaqabe Sxb you can take it on, Welcome to the stage

Congrats sis and thanks for the advice, the moral of the story was to get married, hear hear hear One can imagine how hard that seems when you are not, but rather easy when its done, Its how life works. Sometime I see the already married peepz looking for second and seriously doing it while the singles are still wondering around. That is how simple it is, so C'mon lets do it Who's is ready??? Casto haye, Woman section waa agwareegaysaa maalmahaan , There was never been a better chance than this, Thanks to Fartun.

^^Very sad results runti But where do you Somali woman fit in this statistics? Being Female Muslim and Black as well, you can't get better combination than that, don't you think? So shehe, are you out of work? you don't have answer as it a personal matter.

Jamilah Welcome to the club guess now my mini goals have to expand into life long ambitions. And it is this thought above all that frightens me considering it often propels me into contemplating my looming demise. My only source of comfort admist all this confusion is knowing that (or hoping that) there will be great times as a result of such changes. Expect the best and prepare for the worst, you are at turning point, you either make it or break, but what you can't do is not face the truth If you try and avoid then that will certainly bring demise. Absolutely the will be great times with full of challenges, downfalls and at times dissappointments. The shortcut rather easier way to get there is through Patience and perceverance bridge! GoodLuck

Modesty, are you a lady? I mean female? lol, Seems you have fun there creating all this? My question to you is how did you reached this conclusion? I mean you say such thing based on what? evidence to support your argument? Or are you just making it up

^^^lol, First of all thank you for the free lecture. Seems as if im up and ready for the exam, lol Bro, what fun are you talking about? Its exam/project crunch time. I know actually same here, gota hand in few assignments at the begining of the second semester, I didn't do a jack so far just messing around, thats how life is right my corner. How about you and how is the project going on with you? Wish you best of luck, be careful with the transformers not to transform urself in an electric light, you kno what I mean U all gona be so Iftiin dhaldhalaal, waa birbirqee walahi The funny thing is my semester long group members for a design class (no Somalis) are enjoying SOL and often ask to see what’s new on SOL. I see we are the only two sad @sses online in front of a computer on a Sat. evening...back to the books. What non Somalis, you invited them here, browsing and reading my post, now that's breach of contract with SOL, watch your back Mr SOL detective is after you. OOh I kno about the Sad beings we were, left alone in the cold on a Sat, lol, at least we survived from that killer boredom, here Im again sadly laughting on a Sun, Was it die another day or survive another day best suits there I guess. Cheers

Was it me, or was there anything wrong with SOL for the past 2 days. I didn't visited the site for more than a week, tried to check yesterday all of a sudden nothing worked, I guess everyone experieced the same but I don't know. Besides I see only few nomads online, less than about 10 are browsing the site right now, thats a clear indication that everyone pretty much still thinks is not working. Its all good that it's again back in business.

I've realized somali men appreciate it more when it's a hard core typical somali girl never smile lady, because you got it right, yep we like that way, when there is Suuraha iyo Manyaca, iscusbaynta iyo buuraha dhaadheer oo laga dhaco, Perhaps you should always take your Mountain bikes with you incase you might decide to go all way to really help you make it through.

^^Welcome to SOL first. Is this how you want to do your research, or are you conducting a survey, perhaps looking for ideas? Global Feminism? aa, Im sorry I can't help there but the good news is that there are handful of expert feminists available, very passionate full of new ideas. Take your time
