| If any of you were waiting for a deep/spiritual realankan comeback, sorry....
This was just so funny.
It was on a friend's gchat status:
Youtube, Facebook and Twitter will be joining forces to create the ultimate social website called "You Twit Face." ( I think they got from the Conan O'Brien show...)
LOL

| When someone we know dies, we look to what they left behind in this life.
Allah subhanahu wa ta'aala looks for what they sent forward.
What have you sent forward?
This life is temporary. When we think of tomorrow, we think of waking up, going to the bathroom, and brushing our teeth. We check our email. We see our families and our roommates. We think of what to eat for breakfast and if we'd like to lunch out with a friend. Did I read for class? Did I finish my homework? Am I going to get to work on time? We wonder what other people are doing that day. We think of the busy day ahead and how to get all of our work done and still get a nap in. We may think of stopping by our favorite restaurant or sweet shop. But do you ever think that tomorrow might bring something else? What if tomorrow we weren't here? What if the next moment we awoke we couldn't speak or move? And the Angel of Death was taking our soul and those who we love are standing around us with heads hung low and faces covered in tears? Tomorrow is unknown. What have we sent forward?

| Vatican cardinal calls Gaza "big concentration camp" Wed Jan 7, 2009 8:38pm GMT ROME (Reuters) - Pope Benedict's point man for justice and peace issues on Wednesday issued the Vatican's toughest criticism of Israel since the latest Mideast crisis began, calling Gaza a "big concentration camp." Cardinal Renato Martino, president of the Vatican's Council for Justice and Peace, made his comments in an interview in the Italian online newspaper Il Sussidiario.net. "Defenceless populations are always the ones who pay. Look at the conditions in Gaza: more and more, it resembles a big concentration camp," Martino, whose informal title is Vatican "justice minister," was quoted as saying. Pope Benedict has made several general appeals for an end to the violence in Gaza but has not openly criticised Israel. The pope is due to visit Holy Land sites in Jordan, Israel and the Israeli-occupied West Bank in May.
