Comment on Michael Jackson Do You Remember the Time by Ollie Amor

I truly hope we never forget The King Of Pop Jacko’s death was, in my opinion, actually caused by all the emotional hardship he had to bear over the course of all the child molestation charges made against him. He prevailed in the the court battle, yet his health suffered enormously. So can you say his death was a individual doctor’s fault, or perhaps the zeal with which this modern world condemns? This is no more the case than with the rich and/or the famous.

The luxor development plan shouldn’t be criticized like that since it transformed luxor completely ,reviving these ancient times of prosperity and greatness.small lanes,old slums and crowded areas have curtained this greatness nevertheless this project has changed all that in limited time;if you take a walk in luxor nowadays,you really may enjoy the fascinating open scenes of the ancient civilization.

I still believe Wikipedia is a good thing, though. It makes a great amount of information available to many people, and if you’re curious about ‘hot’ issues, you just need to check the debate pages. (Which can be very entertaining.)

This is going backwards. The west tries to start more recycling, Cairo is moving to less recycling?!?! And for what, to have loud noisy trucks working for a fee and creating big trash dumps? This is going in the wrong direction. Please send us your Zaballeen, we don’t come close to their effectivity.

I remember when we visited Cairo, we were surprised that McDonalds food costed exactly the same as in Belgium. We would have expected that – as wagers are lower? – so were the prices.
