Oh yeah, we're just fine. The heaviest rain and the flooding is mostly north of us, but that happens to be where I work, which is why they closed early.

They've evacuated some neighborhoods and there've been problems with water backing up into and flooding septic tanks (eww worse than ants). More rain to come tonight....

Well you know they say sticks and stones may break your bones but words can never hurt you. However, human spit is really nasty.

The average american doesnt know the difference between arabs, muslims, sheiks and hindus... I wonder how we expect them to know about anything else..

Anyways ever since I started wearing hijab I've been spat on, had something thrown at my car, and I was called and islamic b!tch in a grocery store.. And I expect more as well... People are set in their ways.

wow..and you live in michigan right..like where most of the arabs live in the usa. We have an egyptian psych doctor here you see his wife in the store wearing her scarf and nobody doesn't even glance twice or stare at her. Other than that my SO is the only arab here. Well the other day one of his co workers has a daughter who married a guy from egypt and are in their immigration process so she told him she was happy he was there so when her son in law comes maybe he can have someone to talk to. He was kind of amazed everyone knew about the late king hussein of jordan. I guess even though i live in the boonies so to speak people are kind of worldly here. D*mn I don't think i could take anyone spitting at me I'll have to spit back lol

Yes... we pretty much are the Arab meeting place in North America.. however... no matter what... there are still a majority that are disgusted with islam and terrorism... they feel the need to take it out on me.

Just because arabs live along side of people, doesn't mean that they are going to like them more... actually... in some instances I've found the opposite to be true, they have a few bad experiences with arabs here... and then they see what's going on in the middle east.... well you know the rest..

it's all downhill from there.

But there are a few that see what's going on in the middle east, and they do meet polite god fearing muslims and it changes their opinion..

it all depends on the situation.
