well it is very hard for us to realize that we are imcomplete without all the other countires and their cultures even if they were to be the one with whom we are at war. so i thought let me start a thread where people can thank other countries for all the stuff that belonged to that country that makes them complete.

    Jalebi is so sweet its gross-could practically give you diabetes. imo. Gulab jamun is better. Rasam lai, even more so.

    Thank you Italy, for nice food, nice women, nice cars and nice gardens. lol.

    Thank you India for sikhism.

    Every Sikh I've ever met has been cool.

    Thank you...whoever came up with and refined Arabic.
    It's quite pretty and poetic, at least in translation.

    hey ElenaP...

    i just returned from a trip to Jammu (of Jammu and Kashmir). and there i had 5 pegs of vodka in less than 3 hours. one of them i had with orange juice!

    it rocked. the silent, bored me just got up and started singing. my uncle had to see that i didn't have anymore of it lol!

    actually i didn't eat much before, with or after the pegs and then i had loose motions. like 8 times in 3 hours in the night! lol. the next day i had to sdit alone in the hotel and didn't get to go to the near by mountain with snow :-(

    lol. life rocks! thank you russia for vodka anyway! next time i'll have lesser pegs. or maybe i'll simply eat some more ;-)
