Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege- Unknown
They Are All Around Us!

You can be assured that these people are around, above, below, across and right next to us everywhere and all the time! Beware, I hear they are contagious!
Can you imagine, they walk among us!
Some guy bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old
fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying:
"Free to good home You want it, you take it." For three days the
fridge sat there without even one person looking twice at it. He
eventually decided that people were too un-trusting of this deal. It
looked too good to be true, so he changed the sign to read: "Fridge
for sale $50." The next day someone stole it.
Caution... They Walk Among Us!
One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when someone shouted.
"Look at that dead bird!" Someone looked up at the sky and said...where???"
They Walk among us!!
While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which
direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun
waking him up every morning. She asked, "Does the su n rise in the
north?" When my brother explained that the sun rises in the east, and
has for sometime, she shook her head and said, "Oh, I don't keep up
with that stuff."
They Walk Among Us!!
I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I
got a call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was
open. I told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7
days a week." He responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?" Wanting
to end the call quickly, I said, "Uh, Pacific"
They Walk Among Us!!!
My colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we
overheard one of the administrative assistants talking about the
sunburn she got on her weekend drive to the shore She drove down in a
convertible, but "didn't think she'd get sunburned because the car was
moving".
They walk among us!
My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car it's designed to cut
through a seat belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk...
They Walk Among Us!!!!!!!
I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area. So I went to
the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never
showed up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a
trained professional and I was in good hands. "Now," she asked me,
"Has your plane arrived yet?"...
They Walk Among Us!!!!!!!!
While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small
pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he
would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some
time before responding. "Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm
hungry enough to eat 6 pieces.
Yep, They Walk Among Us .....and some are among us too .......

Mabrook!

His Majesty Bashar Al Asad, was “elected” president of Syria again, after a 97% poll favoring him. Unlike other Arab dictators, His Majesty was keen on granting his people democratic elections by providing a ballot for people to check ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. Oh, and a minor side detail, is that there were no other candidates! Grazie!

BBC Hails Good News!

While reading BBC News online, I came across the headline, “Scientists find bird flu antibody” which absolutely shocked me! Bird flu killed approximately 180 thousand people in less than 4 years hopefully, and now will be a thing of the past. Scientists are certain yet, but are very optimistic towards this finding. Professor Antonio Lanzavecchia, of the Institute for Research in Biomedicine-Switzerland, stated “the antibodies have already proven effective in the lab and in mice and he is confident that they could be used in humans.” For all of you chicken lovers out there, the BBC just gave you the green light … so pig out!

Britney Spears Letter

This is a Letter From Britney to you people…
Dear Fans,
I just wanted to reach out to all of you and explain some of the things that I have been faced with recently.
It's so funny how many stories are put out there about people. It's like we all want our side of the story out there as well, but at the end of the day only a few people care to hear what is really going on since the bad is always so much more interesting than the truth. I don't know why, but this is so weird to me. I used to be angry at the tabloids for printing horrible things about me, but now I try to just be numb to what I see. I saw Tyra Banks once get really upset and cry on her show because they made her look fat. We all want a certain image of ourselves out there, and at some point we all do really care what other people think or we wouldn't be here.
Recently, I was sent to a very humbling place called rehab. I truly hit rock bottom. Till this day I don't think that it was alcohol or depression. I was like a bad kid running around with ADD. I had a manager from a long time ago come in and try to direct me and my life after I got my divorce. I was so overwhelmed I think that I was in a little shock too. I didn't know who to go to. I realized how much energy and love I had put into my past relationship when it was gone because I genuinely did not know what to do with myself, and it made me so sad. I confess, I was so lost.
This letter is to not place blame on anyone, although I do see the world with a completely different set of eyes now. Being in that vulnerable state and taken to dinners and parties with friends and finding out later you paid for everything was a huge learning lesson for me. I think the whole problem was letting too many people into my life. You never know another persons intentions or what another person wants. I feel I was too open and looking for answers when I had it all to begin with. I have had to cut so many people out of my life. It is so sad, because if anyone is a family person...it is me. When I was little I remember every night watching movies with my family and feeling so at peace. Dancing and singing all the time just like a little girl should. Now recently I find with my children that I want them to have that feeling all of the time. I am having to face a lot of things right now since I have children of my own. A lot of insecurities from when I was little are coming up again. It is like we are never good enough.
I know everyone thinks that I am playing the victim, but I am not and I hate what is going on right now so much. Maybe this is the reason for this letter...to maybe allow people to look at me differently. It is like when you are a real woman and say what you feel and how you think things are supposed to be, that people just say you are a "bitch."
I feel like some of the people in my life made more of some issues than was necessary. I also feel like they knew I was beginning to use my brain for a change and cut some ties, so they wanted to be in more control of my life than me. I think it is actually normal for a young girl to go out after a huge divorce. I think it was a bigger issue because I had not gone out in such a long time. I am 25 and I do still have a lot to learn, and I am going to make mistakes everyday, and I am sure every mistake I make will probably be on CNN or Good Morning America. I am only human people and I love you for still loving me.
I am sitting here at home and it is 6:25 and both of my sons are asleep. I am truly blessed to have them in my life. Everyday is so surreal. Life in general is so surreal and crazy.
I just hope this letter made some of you think a little bit more of me and where I am coming from. I just want the same things in life that you want...and that is to be happy. It is just so weird because everyone has their own perception of me and how they think I really am. It is so weird how stories are told. There is your side, my side, and the truth. Somebody has to figure it out. I guess we will never really understand or figure out life completely. That's God's job. I can't wait to meet him...or her.
Love, Britney
Enjoy!

P.S Special thanks to “harhoooor” for informing me about this.
والله ما سمعت بدجلا أكبر من هذا

في الأشهر التي مضت قمت بإعداد بحث لأحد موادي في الجامعة حول دور الإسلام في الساحة العامة في دولة الكويت. وإستدنت في تلك الورقة إلى مراجع عديدة ومن أبرزها ورقة بحثية أعدت من قبل مؤسسة كارنجي للسلام الدولي وقام عليها الباحث نيثان براون تحت عنوان “الدفع نحو سياسية حزبية؟ الحركة الدستورية الإسلامية في الكويت.” وإن كنت أختلف مع الباحث حول عدد من الأمور وناقشتها بغزارة في ورقتي، الا أن دهشتي كانت للرد الموجه للباحث من خلال رسالة بعثت إليه من قبل عضو المكتب السياسي في الحركة السيد محمد حسين الدلال وذلك في تاريخ ١ أبريل ٢٠٠٧م
والقضية الأساسية التي سأتطرق إليها ليست أعمال الحركة، ذلك لأن كافة القوى السياسية في الكويت تخيم على أعمالها علامات إستفهام عالقة وتكبر أحيانا وتصغر في أحيانا أخرى. إلا أنني سأتطرق إلى افتراء الحركة على الأسرة الحاكمة في الكويت وعن معتقدات الحركات الأوصولية التي تحاول حدس تشويهها.
فقد تطرق الباحث في ورقته إلى أمرا مهما للغاية وهو السجال السياسي القائم بشكل مستمر بين أقطاب السياسة والحركات السياسية في دولة الكويت ويفسر ذلك بعدم إعطاء مؤسسة من مؤسسات الحكم الكف الغالب مما يهمس البرلمان ولا يجعل له دورا فاعلا في تحديد مقومات الحكومة ولا يبسط سلطانه على أعماله-براون ص ٤- وفي الرد المقدم من الحركة يشيد الدلال بهذا ويضيف “حالة التأزيم والإحتقان راجع إلى طبيعة النظام السياسي والدستوري الكويتي والذي بنى على أساس نظام هجين من توزيع السلطات بين رئيس الدولة من ناحية والأمة من ناحية أخرى ويرجع السبب إلى رغبة الأسرة الحاكمة في فترة إعداد الدستور في عام ١٩٦٢ إلى الابقاء على عدد من السلطات الرئيسية في يدها وعدم وجود القناعة الكاملة بالحياة الدستورية لدى أعضائها فإن النظام الدستوري والسياسي لا يعطي أي من طرفي السلطة الصلاحيات اللازمة والكاملة لإرادة شؤون الدولة”--الدلال ص ١-٢
ليس الهدف هو مناقشة إيمان الأسرة الحاكمة في الديقراطية ففي ذلك حديث مطول، إلا أن رد الحركة ألقى يد الإتهام إلى الأسرة الحاكمة والتي كانت في تلك الحقبة-مؤمنتا أم خاضعة-تتجاوب مع البرلمان والمجلس التأسيسي برغبة من عميدها الشيخ عبدالله السالم الصباح طيب الله ثراه، وفي الحقيقة فإن الدستور الكويتي على عكس ما يصوره الباحث والحركة الدستورية قام بفصل السلطات بكل ما تحمله الكلمة من معنى حتى الأمير نظر في سلطاته وكيفية ممارستها. علاوة على أن الأسرة الحاكمة رغبة من أمير الكويت الراحل الشيخ عبدالله السالم بأن يكون الدستور نابع من منظور شعبي بحت؛ إمتعنت عن التصويت على بنوده. واللجنة المراجعة لمواد الدستور كان في عضويتها شيخا واحدا فقط ولم يصل لغايته لما كان للصف الأخر الأغلبية في الحديث وهذا كان لب الحديث الذي نوه إليه النائب أحمد السعدون في ندوة “إلا الدستور” وفصٌل السعدون تلك الحادثة. والدستور الحالي صودق عليه من قبل الأمير دون أي تعديل أو تنقيح. والسجال السياسي الذي نشهده الأن إنطلق في عام ١٩٦٧ حينما زورت الحكومة نتائج الإنتخابات وأستقال على أثرها خمسة نواب ومنهم العم عبدالعزيز الصقر رحمه الله، والعم يعقوب الحميضي والعم أحمد الخطيب وغيرهم
وفي معتقدات الحركة تطرق براون إلى أن الحركة الدستورية في واقع الحال هي مجموعة ضغط لها دورها في العمل السياسي تختلف مع القوى الوطنية الأخرى-براون ص ١٤-١٥-وجاء رد الحركة في هذا الشأن لتؤكد بأنها “تمثل الواقع الإجتماعي والقيمي للمجتمع الكويتي...وتستمد جزء كبير من قيمها من أصول ومبادىء الدين الإسلامي “ كما صور الدلال الحركة بأنها رادعة للحركات العلمانية التي تخالف القيم الشرعية والدستورية القاطعة، مطالبتا في الوقت نفسه تلك القوى بالشفافية والموضوعية --الدلال ص ٣-٤
ولكي نفهم كلام الدلال علينا أن نعي منطلق الحركات الأوصولية الإسلامية. في حديثه لجمعية العلاقات الخارجية البريطانية عرف الدبلوماسي البريطاني المحنك هيو لي في محاضرته المعنونة ب “مراقبة الإسلام من داخله ودونه” بأن الحركات الأوصولية ومنها حركة الإخوان المسلمين-حدس منهم- تسعى إلى رد الفقه إلى أصله فتغلق باب الإجتهاد وترجع للقرأن والسنة النبوية في تصريف الأمور. وهدفها الأسمى هو أسلمة الحادثة وليس تحديث الإسلام. وما نراه من كلمة أساسية في رد الدلال هو أن الحركة تستمد جزء كبيرا من قيمها من القيم الإسلامية وليس كلها. كلمة تعزف على أوتار الذاكرة وتعيدني لكتاب الدكتور طلال أسد بعنوان “تشكيلات العلمانية: الإسلام والمسيحية والحداثة” حين وصف السياسيين الدنيين بأنهم في ظل الوضع السياسي القائم تتبنى الحركات الدينية دور السياسي العلماني حيث أنها تعتمد على تهميش الفريق الأخر وتسعى لإستغلال الظروف من أجل كسب أصوات الناخبين وإستخدام مجموعة متنوعة من سبل الإتصال بهدف الوصول لغايتها
وإن الحركة الدستورية الإسلامية كغيرها من الحركات الأوصولية التي تتبع تعاليم حسن البنا ومن بعده السيد قطب تسعى لأسلمة الحداثة من
