    John-theKing wrote: Your people can't even organize a single big rally against US action in Iraq which is a daily routine in Pakistan. Maybe that's because we don't really feel that strongly against the US, eh? As for the other "differences", yes there are bound to be many, mostly because India is secular while Pakistan is an Islamic state. You are coming back with that one. And I'll repeat, differences are no cause for hatred. Write that down, and keep looking at it till it gets inside your thick skull. John-theKing wrote: Difference is that you people are passionate to the extent of madness. Just remind yourself the last tour of WestIndes to India in which mostly in all stadiums, there were incidents. In Pakistan there were incidents but not to that extent.

    Did you ever play a game called "Populous"? It was almost better than Civilization.. Instead of being the leader of a nation, you were god. Literally. :) Hmm. you're young, aren't you? Were you born at the time Civilization was released? Does the abbreviations CGA, EGA and PC/XT ring any bells? Just checking.. ;) -- It's not unusual to be picked up by a klingon woman It's not unusual to have fun with a klingon When I see you kicking me around It's not unusual to see me cry, I wanna die

    I'm pleased for Kenya, but I do feel rather annoyed that the teams going through come down to politics because of teams feeling unsure of certain venues :( But I am fantastic in bed!

    I'll be damned. But then again, Bush has commited himself to bomb those who harbor terrorists, right?

    Anonymous wrote: Is it worth saving the few hundred dollars in costs by acting dumb? Rather ask yourself: Is it worth taking the chance of ruining your newly married life for a few hundred dollars? As Colin mentions the chances are slim you will get caught, but if you do then the consequences are serious and can take months to clear up. It will put strain on both of you and probably give her a criminal record. Also remember if you take the risk everytime you go an apply for something official (a new joint bank account, life insurance, social services etc.) you will have the little niggling worry at the back of your mind saying "Will this be the time they catch us out?" Start your married life honestly I would say. A couple hundred dollars is a small price to pay.

I admit to not having been there, but I've seen photos of signs that said similar things. Were they a setup ? Michael Shuster wrote: Second of all you are trying to get people mad about something that never happened, and that is just stupid. Either way, the attitude certainly existed, and it's the attitude of trying to tell people what to do all the time that they were singing about.

    Paul Watson wrote: Kahlua is a milk based liqueur which goes very well with coffee. Well, it is certainly a milk-based liqueur, but the "goes well with coffee" bit is questionable. Sweet, milky drinks need to be used *very* carefully - when *very* drunk, dehydrated, and with a throat worn raw by too much smoke, they can be a life-saver... but they should never be used in place of a *real* drink.
