"I should clarify what I mean by "illiberal."  Obviously, this isn't Saudi Arabia.  I can drive, and function by myself on a day-to-day basis without needing a male relative or husband.  I mean "illiberal" in…"

"I've only been here a short while, but from what I've seen there is little effort on either side to promote fraternizing among locals and expats.  The American Universities here in Education City are an interesting exception, in that…"

"I've seen a bit of that around.  You can do that, and you won't necessarily be arrested, but it strikes me as being massively impolite.  Also, you get stared at by the guest workers like crazy."

"Qatar is still rather strict although it has changed dramatically since 1985 when I went there for the first time. Alcohol was only available to non Muslin residents and pork was illegal! Now alcohol is available in hotels and pork is available -…"

"Take some Krav Maga.  It's designed to be used by female soldiers as well as male and would be great for someone who isn't a big guy.  My Krav Maga teacher told us to expect the fight to go to the ground, and that we should…"

Briana M. replied to Sam Gabriel's discussion What kind of pants would you wear with these kind of boots?
"I think that's more like "hot loincloth."  It's the folding/tying that makes a loincloth, futuristic suspenders aside. Apparently whatever society Connery here represents has buckle and revolver technology, but must rely on…"

"I have worn a watch for so long now that its neither part of my dress or a mere time keeper, it is a part of ME. I feel very odd if I dont have the old Timex strapped on. Plus, Its easier just to glance down and check the time instead of having…"

New Poems

A Poem by some one that I knowTake nothing lightlyBy Bjorn FaknamTake nothing lightly. No vain promise give.

Use the courtesy you expect. Nay, treat them better.No matter what gifts you were given, You are never above yourself. By whatever cause you are driven, Put yourself on the back shelf.Those around…See More
