    Well, a DC Middle East definitely sounds - hmmm- interesting! I'll make sure to bring along a hijab... Speaking of which, NY Times ran this article today, and I found it so amusing that I thought Id post it- http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/22/in...st/22doll.html

    Fulla is in, man!! Hehehehe!!! Id love to get some feedback on this from the forum.

    In the meantime, ASTCell, if you ever find yourself in that area, and have not been briefed on Arabic, I'd be more than willing to give you some lessons . Mind you, Im only in my 3rd semester, but I suppose its better than nothing, hahaha!

        Usually to a question like this I respond with something like " hachit " or ' flint and steel". I don't mean to brag but being an eagle scout I've had plenty of low resource experiences out in the woods.


        BUT

        Since this is a DESERT island. I would have to say a copy of the new testament and a cyanide pill.

          My dad got out in 93 after 24 yrs in the marines and it was only till he turned 50 that they could call him back into active duty which as a Colonel they might have
          Did Everquest teach you that?
