حبيبي “كيكة ” في أمريكا

11 February 2013

في خضم الأوضاع الحالية التي لا تسر أبدا في العالم العربي بكافة أقطاره الموقرة، الواحد بحب يتابع الأخبار، خاصة عندما يكون الواحد متغرب متل حالاتي،  فأغلط غلطة عمري،  وأضغط على زر قناة أغاني عربية بدلا من قناة الجزيرة لأصعق بسماع _ناهيك عن مشاهدة_  فيديو كليب بعنوان: أوباما… للوهلة الأولى اعتقدت أن الأغنية تناقش الربيع العربي، [...]

Problem With Comments

18 December 2008

Just wanted to notify you that I’ve been having problems with my comments lately. Some loyal readers sent me to inform me that they’re actually leaving comments, when nothing is showing to me.
