August 17, 2009, 02:18:37 pm Mountain_Rose lol .. loool .. sounds like the James Bond approach .. winning over enemy ladies with masculine charm. that shud be a good feedback for u for future. during yr next visit be sure u pick a female security & custom officer to deal with .. and of course look yr best Grin

August 17, 2009, 02:14:37 pm ameen lol well it did seem like she wanted to chat a while longer, but too bad I was naturally feeling a bit uncomfortable being put on the terrorist suspect spot

Maybe I can forgive them for it... just maybe.
August 17, 2009, 02:14:10 pm Mountain_Rose Broccoli is a fantastic idea. but unfortnately when i put it on the table, i'm the one who has to finish it

failing on that, my next strategy will be to replace some of those candies with MV's chicken & pineapple salad .. Grin

August 17, 2009, 01:59:57 pm Mountain_Rose i think she took a liking for u brother Wink

August 16, 2009, 09:41:56 am ameen Thanks for the compliments rose, you're right, I noticed that about the americans too, one of the ladies at security was being quite nice actually after she started asking me questions. I got an idea to calm your kids down, since they like sweets alot, maybe you can offer them some green vegetables like broccoli for dinner? I'm sure they would start behaving then right?

August 15, 2009, 07:55:05 pm Mountain_Rose with all the sugary foods of warm summer days, kids r still pretty hyper -- lol
August 15, 2009, 07:53:48 pm Mountain_Rose o my dear Allah! that must have been quite a damper brother! u r such an easy going laid back innocent little kid

americans r such idiots. if they wanna be friendly, they can be very good otherwise they know how to spoil a perfect day.

From the land of the bones

The boy and the apple tree moral story

« on: November 01, 2009, 04:08:48 pm »

A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to
come and play around it everyday. He climbed to the treetop, ate the
apples, took a nap under the shadow...he loved the tree and the tree
loved to play with him. Time went by...the little boy had grown up
and he no longer played around the tree every day.

One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. 'Come and
play with me' the tree asked the boy. 'I am no longer a kid, I do not
play around trees any more' the boy replied.'I want toys. I need
money to buy them.' 'Sorry, but I do not have money... but you can
pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.' The boy
was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left
happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples.The tree
was sad.

One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned and the tree was
excited 'Come and play with me' the tree said. 'I do not have time to
play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can
you help me?'' Sorry, but I do not have any house. But you can chop
off my branches to build your house.' So the man cut all the branches
of the tree and left happily.The tree was glad to see him happy but
the man never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.

One hot summer day, the man returned and the tree was delighted.'Come
and play with me!' the tree said.'I am getting old. I want to go
sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?' said the man.'Use
my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.' So
the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never
showed up for a long time.

Finally, the man returned after many years.'Sorry, my boy. But I do
not have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you ...' the
tree said.'No problem, I do not have any teeth to bite' the man
replied. 'No more trunk for you to climb on' 'I am too old for that
now' the man said.'I really cannot give you anything... the only
thing left is my dying roots' the tree said with tears. 'I do not
need much now, just a place to rest.I am tired after all these years'
the man replied. 'Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on
and rest, Come, come sit down with me and rest.' The man sat down and
the tree was glad and smiled with tears...

This is a story of everyone. The tree is like our parents.

When we are young, we love to play with our Mom and Dad...When we
grow up, we leave them...only come to them when we need something or
when we are in trouble.

No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they
could just to make you happy.

You may think the boy is cruel to the tree,but that is how most people
treat their parents. They take them for granted and hardly appreciate all
they do for them,until it's too late.

May Allah forgive us of our shortcommings and may He Guide us, Ameen.

Please enlighten all your friends and your families by telling them
this story, Love your Parents!

[And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And that
you be dutiful to your parents. If one of them or both of them attain
old age in your life, say not to them a word of disrespect, nor shout
at them but address them in terms of honour.] THE NOBLE QURAN

[ And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through
mercy,and say: 'My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring
me up when I was small.' ] THE NOBLE QURAN
