Ten Reasons To Smile1. Smiling helps keeping your skin healthy. To smile you have to make your facial muscles work, a simple way to avoid wrinkles and look younger!

  
  

2. People do their best when their colleagues/bosses/schoolmates smile. When you are working and people around you smile, you get relaxed and you can concentrate easier. On the opposite, if everyone around you is nervous, you'll surely get nervous too.

Some get high on blood and gore. Others are less particular, they can do with a flower or pot or so.

What can I say? Dubai is full of freaks, and you're there to keep record of all doings natural or slightly deranged. A fine moment, Khuram. Which resulted in a great, albeit itsy-bitsy disturbing shot.

Dubai is full of freaks indeed; and I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm probably the biggest freak of em all.
Top prize to you for noticing the disturbing aspect of this image.
He could very well be one of those classic, melodramatic type of serial killers from old movies manifest.

EyeDance In reply to MARX77 [2013-02-04 21:53:06 +0000 UTC]

Funny you would say that. When I looked at this picture, I have seen some kind of emotionally imbalanced serial killer before my eyes. Not that I mean to heap such a load on that guy, he probably loves his family and his Mummy too, but still...

I'm not a vegetarian, I like meat, but I don't necessarily feel good about the creatures who's lives are shortened in order to accommodate my needs and cravings. It is a world where, in order to live, we have to take lives, but I believe this has to be done with respect and responsibility.

And you the biggest freak of them all? Now, if you can prove that, I'll be really impressed. Impressed beyond any human imagination.

I like meat too. Chickens especially.
I could practically live on chicken meat for the rest of my life and still come back for seconds!
Though I believe that I'm a bit of a hypocrite in that matter, as I won't - cannot eat the bird if it was slaughtered before my eyes.
I just can't do it.

Thank goodness the U.A.E. government put a stop to the practice of placing live chickens in cages in butcher shops.
Now I can have my chicken and not feel guilty about it.

I understand you perfectly well. When it comes to meat "harvesting", hypocrite is my family name. I would easily turn vegetarian if I would have to kill them poor souls myself. Or watching them being killed.

I killed animals in the past, snakes, rats, armadillos etc.; a long time ago I even made myself a name as a killer among the locals in the Beni region of Bolivia. It's a long and silly story, so I won't delve into it here. Anyway, I never felt good about taking a live. And so it should be.

MARX77 In reply to EyeDance [2013-02-04 22:34:51 +0000 UTC]

But you will delve into it via note, right?
If you made a name for yourself in 'the' country that follows the Law of the Rights of Mother Earth, hell yeah I'd like to know more about it.
Shoot me a note when you have the time or else you can look forward to being pestered on a regular basis.

I'll write it down and send it to you via notes sometime (hopefully) soon. But don't expect too much; as I indicated, it is a rather silly, annoying and in some way embarassing story. It's all very Latin American at its core.

Do you know the movie "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid"? Casting Robert Redford and Paul Newman. The Last third of the movie plays in Bolivia, because these two rather hapless train robbers did run into some serious difficulties in the United States. I think the movie depicts the feel of a place like Bolivia rather well. The Machismo, paired with cowardice, but trigger-happy when it seems safe.

Have I? It's among my all time favourite movies!
A George Roy Hill classic.
Man, now I'm even more stoked about hearing your story.

Silly me! I should know by now that it is superfluous to ask you a question like "Have you ever seen this or that movie?" It's obvious: you've seen them all!

Still, I'm glad you like that one in particular, because it is a very charming piece of art, despite its bad, bloody ending. And even that was done in good taste, being a still instead a river of blood and bullet-torn bodies, displayed over and over again.

I wouldn't mind if such finesse would find its way back into movie-making. Should this happen, then there may be written exceptions for the likes of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez.

The remake doesn't seem to have the same appeal as the original. Gangs of Dubai is no Gangs of New York. Dancing Butcher has nothing on Bill the Butcher
But still he's kinda frightening and wonder if you should buy your meat elsewhere

Ears and noses will be the trophies of the day if I buy meat from anywhere else, man.
