Where are You From?
31Oct06A question I wholeheartedly despise. Because I don’t know how to answer it using one word only.

Cluedo
28Oct06I just love this game, used to play it with my brothers and cousins when we were kids. I’ve found out, by way of google, that there was an online contest at cluedo.com and so I of course played the game and was as usual impatient and decided to guess who was the murderer before [...]

The contest [...]
Happy Assassination
24Oct06I know I’ll never ever understand the gangaster mind behind such inhumane acts! How low can an Israeli system get?!
The agency added that troops opened fire at a mourning house of the Shanbari family in Beit Hanoun, killing six residents, and injuring at least thirty, four seriously.
Eyewitnesses reported that the under-cover forces fortified themselves in [...]
