Everything You Wanted To Know About Islam
Sounds fun :) "It seems that the prophet had no idea of the spiritual reality of man that is independent from the material world. Allah's rewards are hoories, wine, honey, gardens, mansions, cloths with gold embroidery and other material objects. These are all material rewards. What is the use of all these for human spirit? His punishment is also physical: fire. Heaven, in Islam, is the place where believers will be reclining under the shade of the trees, eating and drinking exquisite wines, ...
Eat As Much As You Want In Colombia And Lose Weight
Thats what i'm hearing. People say you can go to Colombia, eat all you want and lose weight. You can stuff your face with empanadas, arepas, chorizos all you want and lose weight. You don't have to exercise. You can drink as much as you want. What do people think of this? ...
Elmo's Surprise Birthday Party
It was a bash and everybody got smashed...Elmo's daughter threw a suprise birthday party for Elmo and his bother last Friday at a nightclub in Manhattan. Rubito showed up in shorts and was refused entry. He was cursing at the bouncer "hey motherfoker, you better let me in". Rocinate said he was 10 minutes away but never showed up. I guess he got hit by a bus....LOL. Tonloc was supposedly on the way and never showed up. I blacked out after around 30 drinks. The last thing I remember was being in ...

One Meal a Day Takes the Weight Away
"Clinically proven to give you a better body without spending countless hours dieting or working out." "Lose 10 lbs. and unwanted inches in 48 hours. Guaranteed!" "Lose 8 to 10 pounds per week, easily ... and you won't gain the weight back afterward." Do any of this sound familiar, yet it is a blatant lie by many companies in an effort to strip you of your money without you ever-losing weight. Think about it doesn't this sound to good to be true well, it is. According to the FDA, "Th ...

How to be Pretentious
1. Every item you own must not be referred to by its actual name, but by it’s brand. For instance, you don’t drive a car; you drive a BMW. You don’t wear shoes, you wear Gucci’s, you are not carrying a handbag, you’re carrying a Prada. Pretentious people always call things by their brand unless of course it is a cheap and utterly embarrassing brand. 2. Whenever you need to look at your watch – I mean Rolex – to see the time, you must do the “I’m wearing an expensive tailo ...

Fat European Tourists in New York
If you go around Mid-town and 34th street you will see a lot of fat European tourists. Now that the euro is strong and the dollar is weak, they are taking advantage of the exchange rate. They are doing a lot of shopping. You can see them carrying around big shopping bags filled with clothes and electronics. They go to Mcdonald's and stuff their faces with big macs and wash it down with milk shakes. Meanwhile, Americans are getting thinner and can't buy anything with the weak dollar. You can see ...
America Is Not a Free Country
by Doug Newman Independence Day is upon us. This July 4 we celebrate the 228th anniversary of our independence from Britain and our birth as a free nation. We watch fireworks, go to barbecues, go camping (at tax-funded state and national parks), go to baseball games (in tax-funded stadiums) and hear endless talk about how goldurned wonderful it is that we live in a free country. Or do we live in a free country? Consider the following. In a free country, taxation would be well-nigh n ...

Iron Maiden
Yeah, so I saw Iron Maiden last night at the Meadowlands in New Jersey last night. I guess they did the same show in Colombia with the Power Slave theme. The sound is still there but Bruce Dickenson seeems to have lost his cool. Age takes its toll I guess. Bruce has short hair now and looks like they pulled him off of a barstool somewhere. He sounds like a rambling drunk on stage and makes bad jokes. They only played 1 or 2 songs from the Paul Diano alblums to my dismay. ...
Italy: Court rules crotch-scratching a crime
http://www.adnkronos.com/AKI/English/CultureAndMedia/?id=1.0.1918751113 Rome, 27 Feb. (AKI) - Scratching your genitals in public in Italy can land you in trouble if you're caught. According to a report on the Italian daily Corriere della Sera, Italy's court of cassation, the nation's highest appeals court, has defined the 'act' as "contrary to public decorum and decency." The court also said that the practice is considered a crime even if the gesture is done to "repel evil" or bad luck ...
Teen Hires Hitman to Kill Parents After Being Grounded From PlayStation, Television
WASHINGTON — Like many middle-class, suburban American parents, Shannan and Joey Troiano worried about their son’s behaviour and his bad grades at high school. And like many wayward teenagers, Cory Ryder was grounded for weeks at a time, had a PlayStation confiscated and was banned from watching TV. Less typically, this 16-year-old was plotting to murder his parents by hiring a hitman, while his mother was organising a sting operation involving a police officer posing as a contract killer ...

Bad Experiences With Internet Dating
I have a few but the funniest one was when one turned out to be an old lady. She sent me a picture when she was young. She did'nt look too bad in the picture. I fugured I would get a little booty that day. We met at a bar here in New York City. I was sitting on the bar stool and she wobbles though the door. She was wearing a baseball cap. Her face was wrinkled and teeth were crooked. she looked about 60 years old. We chatted for a while over a couple of drinks. When we walked outside I told her ...

Surge in safety, cruises lifts Colombia tourism
Surge in safety, cruises lifts Colombia tourism By Jayne Clark, USA TODAY http://www.usatoday.com/travel/destinations/2007-10-11-cartagena-side_N.htm?csp=34 CARTAGENA, Colombia — In a country associated more with narcoterrorists than sybaritic pleasures, leisure travel can be a tough sell. But Colombia's climate is changing. Security experts no longer routinely warn visitors that if they stray too far from major cities, they might as well schedule their own kidnappings. REA ...
Americans know little about Latin America: poll
WASHINGTON (Reuters Life!) - Despite President George W. Bush's campaign to improve the United States' image in Latin America, very few Americans seem to know what is going on in the region, a new poll showed. A recent Zogby International poll showed that the large majority of Americans did not know the names of the presidents of Brazil and Mexico, the two biggest economies in the region. Only 10 percent of the 7,362 adults interviewed were familiar with Brazil's second term president, Lui ...

Colombia's Economic Boom
I stumbled upon a good article about Colombia in "BusinessWeek" magazine. Its in the May 28 issue. Here are some excerpts:
Business Ideas
They say one of the best businesses to start in Colombia is a love motel. Most Colombians live with their family. Novios need a place to go for some privacy.
Reinventing Yourself in Colombia
I like the idea of moving to Colombia and doing what Modefoque plans: to enjoy the chicas, booze and chicharrons until I croak. I can stay in the U.S. Maybe get married and become a fat middle age dad. The idea of having a barbecue and mowing the lawn with other fat middle aged Dads terrifies me. I would rather move to Colombia and get drunk in the street with some viejos all day. There must be something wrong with me :) ...

HAVANA (AP) -- Fidel Castro will be in "perfect shape" to run for re-election to parliament next spring, the first step toward securing yet another term as Cuba's president, National Assembly head Ricardo Alarcon said Thursday.
"I would nominate him," said Alarcon, the highest-ranking member of parliament. "I'm sure he will be in perfect shape to continue handling his re ...
