K, take 2 (won't OD)...

I suggest everyone visit a grave and reflect on the silence, You will all soon realize, Then when you all die , and Die you SHALL !! , The saprophytic bacteria that will decompose your bodies into oblivion will not make any distinction between any one. http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/4278/01222....

When I saw the title I thought it was going to be a picture of a particular DF Member

Anyway, I can view the video.

@ BM, interesting post.... You lost me on the "Karate Kids" reference

@Shaf, what do you think of the landmine/prayer mat idea? I've been told prophets could go throught the roof! :D LOL-- Wed Feb 09, 2011 10:58 am -- Well, numerically the most common English accent is the Indian accent. (And we're not talking Peter Sellers 'goodness gracious me' accent here - but mo...

Anyways, I won't be here...

I would not sweat the visa thing...you are a Canuck and flying Emirates (so the "aim" of the visa acomplished). Marhaba...you probably can't book it from outside. If you are flying business, no problem (they will give you a "fast track" card in the cabin which takes you to the &q...

I think I mentioned before that I was scheduled to go do some “good” somewhere on the other side of a couple of ponds and had delayed my trip until the last minute in the hope of avoiding commercial flights – but no such luck. Anyway, on 11 February at the ungodly hour of 2 am I was scheduled to fly...

What? No TV? I'm not too good at math but 3+9= 12

Wills drawn up by aliens??? are not recognized in the UAE. Very gray area. I would assume expats who are Muslim would automatically fall under Sharia law as far as the government is concerned, in spite of the existence of a will, but non-Muslim as well???? I guess this shouldn't come as a surprise ...

Mom was the oldest of 10, 3 brothers and 9 sisters. What? No TV? I'm not too good at math but 3+9= 12 :P OOOPS. 3 brothers 6 sisters. I guess I included the 3 imaginery nice relatives I had when I was a child or somehow that 6 did a flip all on its own. :lol: :lol: ok...BTW I've been to 11220.

There are newcomers to Dubai

Was George D flying first class??? Staying at a luxurious 5 star resort/hotel??? Wearing a big Rolex??? Work at Dubai World??? Did he mention if his family is being held as ransom in Dubai??? I'm sure you didn't let on to your involvement on DF!!!! No to all (except he might be staying at a luxurio...

Welcome back Ambassador, you have been missed! I hope you have noted some small changes on the forum :D Anyways, I hope you didn't wish that George person luck! How did you know who Concord was? Thanks for the welcome. I did not notice any changes. Anyway, as we were talking about "forums"...

Well it was rude of me not to welcome you back Ambassador, so: Welcome back!!! Nice to hear that Concord had nice things to say considering what he went through. It appears that what was once a nice tight group going back, there was a big fallout. From what I observed in readings, it got really rea...

I don't know if any of you have heard of Groupon. I think they must be new to Dubai but I've used them in the UK. Sign up to receive their newsletter and daily deal. A certain number of people have to commit for the deal to be on. It's group purchasing and is becoming very popular in the UK. Todays...

On a serious note, the choice of some of the moderators was pants. Changing titles of topics because they didn't like them, having the last say and locking a topic! All pathetic in the grand scheme of things. It has brought some of them down to earth with a big bang and a wake up call that they are...

LONDON – Local government officials said Monday they have confiscated ice cream made with human breast milk from a London shop amid concerns the dessert is unsafe. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110228/ap_on_fe_st/eu_odd_britain_breast_milk_icecream;_ylt=Arjwne9W8RnHpRms7bPcQdF0bBAF;_ylu=X3oDMTNhZm8w...

Sheen will do alright specially after the settlement for firing him.

Tough one...

A trial or verdict would not have happened in UAE. Although not a monetary victory the fact that he was able to sue and gets his day in court would be satisfying (certainly not a win for DW - as if what they claimed were true the jury would have awarded damages in their favor)... p.s. that's the Geo...

Peed.

You know, one answer would not help

Let me get this right..there were two lawsuits, one in the district court and one in the federal court. Both then get converted into 1 ruling, owing to which the scope of Herve's complaint was significantly reduced (brilliant courtroom maneuvering I must say). Now what on earth was the verdict of t...

It seems so...

I have 'land lines" where I live. For those who do not know what that is: the voice comes into your house thru a wire (the spagetti looking thing but plastic with metal inside).

Does anyone else?
