i just never think of cocaine and that part of the world together. What sort of punishment should she expect?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:23am

Well, probably none -- I glanced over another article that said the authorities were trying to determine whether it was for personal use or not ... presumably personal use would be excused. She was let go ... not sure if she's expected back to go to court or anything, though

Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:54am
melinda:

I usually don't begin talking out loud until after 10 or 11 am either, sometimes wonder if it might be a good idea to do a practice vocalization beforehand since I work in retail and don't want to sound croaky when I first speak to a customer.

Hey Gary, can you recommend a particular compilation of Oum Kalthoum's music for the uninformed (me). It seems like most of the stuff I find is out of print or otherwise a pain to acquire.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:14am
Gary:

Man, Polyus, that's a tough one. Let me think about it?

Obviously there is a ton of stuff YT and such places, but I'd like a physical copy of something.

Hello Gary. What part of Morocco does this music come from? Apart from Casablanca.

@Polyus: That's a tough one because so many of her "songs" are quite long. I'd recommend getting Inta Omri, either on its own or as part of a box set. It's a classic

Somebody brought amazing hummus to an FMU party once. It was from a place in Red Hook called Mazzat. Best hummus in NYC that I know of -- but a bit of a pain in the butt to get to.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:39am
Brian in UK:

Gary, the reason I asked was that we were thinking of going to Morocco sometime and I wondered whether Casablanca, Marrakech, Essaouira or wherever was the home of the hits!

Ike if you will pardon me saying, you are eating it wrong. (lame attempt at Doug pun)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:40am
Gary:

Ah, well, I'm not entirely sure where the Moroccan music industry is situated ... too bad Tim isn't here this morning; he'd probably have the answer. I do know that Cheba Maria started out in Casablanca before moving to France

You need to go to the Detroit/Ann Arbor area if you want the best hummus.
