I don’t know if the versions in Jordan will be censored? If not there will be a lot people buying/renting this, who get home to be faced with a qayish soon after, my dad loves these type of historical programs but I won’t be getting him this one, let him come across it by him self.

I was glad to learn that despite your reservations, you encouraged your Jordanian brethren to vote which is commendable. As you well know, an election has three components: The electorate, the candidates and the voting system. While the second is a product of the third and we as concerned citizens don't as yet have the means to affect, the first component is very much within our means to mold. As a politically literate Jordanian, it is incumbent upon you to spread this knowledge and combat what you refer to as the "apathy" prevalent in our society. When things do change, whether instituted from above, or demanded from below, a critical mass of people will have the political acumen to understand and support this change.

Me and a bunch of my friends from grad school used to get together and watch it each week. Now that I think of it, the group was all women... with a serious crush on Marc Anthony :-) I love this series.

I'm addicted to any sort of biography or historical tale, whether it comes in a book or on a DVD. If you think so highly of it, then I'm guessing it must be really good! Salamtak! Don't do what I did and neglect your nostrils. Moisturize after every nose blow. Otherwise, expect a lot of dead scaly skin to give off a rosy tint in the aftermaths of the cold. Ew, I'm so gross.
