y would you ask that :whistle:

I can't tell if she has it out for california members, old ladies, or yemenis. I just don't like that she pinched that pic of my grandma off hot or not.

How can one claim God cares to judge a fornicator over judging a lying, conniving bully? I guess you would if you are the lying, conniving bully.

she may be fat but she's not 50

"poisoned by a jew" sounds like a Borat song

If you bring up the truth, you're a PSYCHOPATH, life lesson #442.

R, you reminded me of something I need to pick up at the store. Have you heard of those patches called "ICEYHOT"??

I really love Christmas for the same reason I like Ramadan - family togetherness, good food, celebration and warmth, re-kindled connections, etc. I gain weight during both holidays, btw. :angry:

yeah, I'd really like to know who does lose weight during Ramadan? It's not like you're not eating at all. In fact, it's harder for me to keep my regular weight since you're eating late!

Exactly. And all that eating at night. Added to that the basically carb and sugar combo (tasty as it is!) that I ate in Morocco all Ramadan. I usually put on about 5-10 pounds per Ramadan. The anthropologist in me often wonders if part of Ramadan's function is carbo-loading in a population that needs it (agrarian)...

LOL this kills me, I put on a pound per day! And no, you didn't hear me talking about losing any!

carbo-loading is OK if you walk everywhere, which is impossible where I live. See? I changed impossible to walk everywhere, into impossible to walk anywhere!
