adeish sar mou3adal l amtar 3indkon in dubai ?

do they still have that mall with snow in it ? it might be the closest location that has snow

this country is ruined ! and with those fires in the summer....akid it is not gonna be the same... i don't wanna get started on the subject !

not so long ago, maybe i was little, maybe my perception of things was different, but this time of year we used to have tons of snow, plenty of it, like you couldn't go out, see the top of the snow while in car in some areas, stand on the snow and hang a piece of clothes on almost the top 3amoud l kahraba or top of tree, having roads closed, schools closed, getting stuck in the snow in cars

I immagine in 5 years from now, we will have to travel to go to snow :'(

Re: Desktop December 2008

yeah, still open
well, uae is the 10th country that consumes the most electricity per person (and that was in 2005, it rose a lot since then...). and in the 1st 10, 4 are from those nordic countries (finland, iceland, norway, canada) that most probably use all this power to heat themself, and 3 others are from thos ultra rich arabic countries (qatar, kuwait and uae), and USA... so yeah, uae is not very environmental friendly  i think they are also the #1 country that consumes the most natural resources per person... fuck the planet, we need to ski in the desert and sit on pieces of ice.

in lebanon it's more like fuck the world, the people, the nature, the fauna, the flaura, the dead, the living, the zombies, the trolls, fuck humankind, fuck the solar system, the galaxy, the universe, ... fuck everything, we want to win next year's elections!!!

Whats barad... battikh??
And btw uae needs all this power to run the A/C 24/seven in summer. If you really want to be environment friendly, why dont you shut down the A/C and keep the window open

Re: Desktop December 2008

barad is when it rains pieces of ice, not snow, ice...
and great idea for the AC, i'll try it right away  if i don't show up in the next 3-4 days, it means i'm probably dead because of the heat
