Now its well past November 1st, and you haven't said a word about it, yet you are posting to ES.

Did you arrive in Shebin? Have you married yet? Have you met the Italian woman of Shebin? And how do you like Mohamed?

She hasn't posted. [Confused]

As far as I know, she hasn't been able to access a computer yet. I've sent her several e-mails. If/when I hear from her, I'll let ES folks know. Or if someone else hears from her first, I'd appreciate a heads up that's she's doing OK. [Smile]

I left on November 1st, so I might have posted the morning before I left to catch my plane

However, I don't know anything about an Italian woman here, I'm still settling in and adjusting right yet. I have found everything so far to be quite pleasant, a little culture shock naturally, but overall pretty much what I expected and Mohamed is very good, alhamdullilah.

I hope everyone is well.

And some people don't mind living in a community that speak none of your langauge or even to follow any of their customs or learn of their customs before hand.

Just because you hate America, taken your shaddah and veil doesn't mean you won't alienate yourself.

Good luck, by next spring I will be hearing alot about you. And it doesn't sound good so far.

In a town of 160,000 being the only American in town doesn't have any sort of priviledge.

Mind you most of the town in bureaucratic and has to do busines with the "Shadow government".

Why do you think she hates America? [Confused]

By criticizing the US on certain things?
You do that.
By living in Egypt?
You want to do that.

I don't get it. [Confused]

She like Salama relies on the fact that you don't read all of her posts.

She has had multiple usernames and I have watched her posts closely.

unfortunately I did not save them before admins either erased them or moved them.

She tells you what you want to hear, and you are a 'newer' member.

Do I want to live in Egypt. I want to live with my daughter and don't care which country that happens in.

But she doesn't have much to say about America despite conspiracy theories and that normal hate rhetoric you recieve from religious nutcases.

Sorry I don't buy her bull.

As opposed to someone who takes out her hatred of how her husband treated her to everyone on this board? [Roll Eyes]

No but you like Tigerlily have changed usernames, actually you have changed your usernames more than twice.

And you had a story a while back that you were married already to a Jordanian guy.

And you never answered my questions of how many police stations, grocery stores, postal offices and so forth.

I asked around about you, and being the only American within a town with 4 foreign women who are wives, your presence should've come up.

Especially because the Sherif in the town is actually a distant relative of ours, or a cousin of my FILs. But with 8 brothers and sisters and his father having 17 brother and sisters a cousin is a distant relative.

And his marriage to you should've been registered in the local courts which they haven't been because we have relatives who work in the court system too.

You never replied who if anyone in his family spoke English. And since there is no internet cafes in Shebin, no public access to the internet outside of schools I wonder if you are running into Cairo every few days in order to get online.

I know things about Shebin the contradict your account of Shebin.

But thats okay you were good buds with salama, I can't expect any better from you.

Yeah I never liked doctors or the dutch. For a while the dutch and doctors seemed quite possibly human through you,.

But I gave up on that. I hate doctors and I am still annoyed with the dutch.

Holy buckets that wasn't the Detroit I saw.

But seriously I was thinking of Detriot because it has a large Jordanian community as in Noralhaq's first husband.

Holy cow those are highrises not pavillions.

And Shebin doesn't have any mansions only villas.

The only thing that comes close to a Mansion in Shebin is right outside the city limits in a village called Shebin-El-Mit or something like that. Sadat built a fortress in the country and had his television addresses televised from there.

Sadat was so full of sh*t.

Feel free to love or hate anybody. But strange enough, I also am not that crazy about the Dutch, and I also dislike doctors!

But let me explain!

I neither love nor hate you. I just sympathize with you.

And I was maybe the only one who defended you lately. But suddenly out of the blues you started calling me a cullible fool! That's why you pissed me off.

Now I can't help but think of a cullible fool when I think of the name Amy.

Call it conditioning!

Sadat sold out to the Israelis in order to make friends with America's wealthy. He Harbored the Shaw. He was tight with Kissenger.

Screw the drug habit, he was an @ss.

You are still upset because I don't believe or will even consider your anti-bra crusade.

Personally I think you have tit-envy. Mind you most of those Victoria Secret models are European and those VS models have plastic tits. So stop blamming America for your tit envy, blame your Dutch and German titty neighbors for that.

Aa ya magnoonah!! I have the most beautiful breasts on earth! My husband, who examines breasts on daily basis, said he had never seen such beautiful breasts before he met me.

I often went out without a bra because I didn't need one. They're firm and rounded and just perfect.

And even if I had ugly breasts, I only need to shake my ass to downstairs to get any size or shape I wish for.

So I guess I am jealous of Lolo Ferrari huh? heeeeeeheeeeeeeeee

You need to get over the american bra thing.

I just can't understand why women are so offended that American society demands bra wearing? [Confused]

And yess I have seen little old ladies in Edina tell the high school exchange students from sweden, that no matter how small your apples are you must wear a bra in America.

I love to see that scene every time.

LOL! You're right Sono, that's def. not the Detroit I know. I lived in that hole for 7 years and it looked nothing like that pic. Well Detroit itself doesn't have a huge Jordanian community but Dearborn does. Huge Jordanian, Lebanese, Yemeni, Iraqi, Egyptian, Palestinian, and Syrian communities. The Iraqis have started moving out to the eastern and northern suburbs. The Yemeni are moving west to Ann Arbor. Hamtramck used to be swarming with Yemeni but now it's full of Pakis and Bengalis.


[/qb][/QUOTE]Holy buckets that wasn't the Detroit I saw.

But seriously I was thinking of Detriot because it has a large Jordanian community as in Noralhaq's first husband. [/QB][/QUOTE]

Well its second hand knowledge from a few guys who went to detroit first and then to minneapolis, only been in the country for 5 months so not really reliable.

And I did check out a few books on Arab Americans, 1987 & 1992 might not be so up to date.
