About Me
- Desert Girl
- American semi-Kuwaiti living, working, eating, boating, and observing in Kuwait. Born in America, but raised with Kuwaitis, I get culture shock on both continents. No one understands me, but my dog, and she still gives me strange looks once in a while. I do not accept payment for advertising; I won't entertain the thought. If I think your product or service is worthy of discussion, I will post about it. If I help you, you can send me pink roses. If you are interested in reading about the Bedoun cause in Kuwait, see my posts which are tagged "Bedoun Civil Rights Movement".
Life in the Desert
I danced in the desert,
I swam by the shores,
I spent warm nights under starlit blankets of silver,
I made friends from far-away places
I ate and drank and savored it all
I loved and was loved
What more could anyone ask for?

I think her rival in the contest killed her!
Who lets their camel wander the desert on a school night?
And how did they find the black camel in black crude oil?!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!!!
Black on black violence?
May I push in your crude?
So after all, being beautiful is hard!!
Actually I am very shocked at this story mainly because We had one of those 'IT;s sooo bad' ... moments. This one was 'It;s so bad for females in Saudi Arabia that when they have a camel beauty contest... They can only have males in the contest' so I am very surprised and I think this calls for a Fetwa ,No wait 2 fetwa's and there should be some whippin involved. Gail
Tonya Harding works for Aramco?
