Auntie Aengima and uncle Alfie meet for a conference in Istanbul (originally was going to be Kenya) to discuss how to deal with overwhelming demand of users for their advice. Details not clear yet, stay tuned..

I have just been informed that another important point on their conference agenda is discussing Alfie's lack of involvement in the project. Is he sick? Is he afraid? Is he evil? Only time will tell... and as for the moment, he's completely ignoring his responsibilities. Stay tuned for more...

I was in Istanbul this weekend and I saw huge preparations for the conference. I saw the advertisements and everything . Everybody is talking about it.
It will be such a shame if it is canceled.

Thank you for update Thehandsom! (our TC correspondent from Istanbul). We did expect huge crowds to gather as a resonse to the conference, but certainly not THAT huge! If Alfie continues to be apathetic, only responding to the "army thread" we might consider other options of what happened to him when he served in the army... Currently the most convincing speculation is the "newbie theory" (new soldiers being harassed by the older ones). Stay tuned for more...

AEnigma has made no firm committment to attend the conference at this juncture and is currently in hiding after media speculation regarding her marriage to Q. Her meeting with "Uncle" Alphie is still in the negotiation stage.

While the problem business has been thriving, AEnigma feels that Alphie's input has not been sufficient enough to warrant his fee.

She denies everything and we beg the press to give her some privacy at this difficult time.

Yours sincerely,

Some VERY exciting and shocking news are on the way... our correspondents and secret agents are working on the story. Do not turn off your radios!

"WE dig deeper... "

That's disappointing, I had heard a bunch of American conservatives were going to attend. They were anticipating hearing Omegas lectures...Please let us know of any updates...

In an exclusive interview with AF, he told TC that he actually never went to the army... yes, this is a shock to all of us. He's been diagnosed by a doctor and sent to Konya as a dudu, here's an excerpt from the conversation:

"TC.. WE dig deeper... so you don't have to "

This is a silly thread that looks as if it us designed to undermine the credibility of a very knowledgable member here.

Now I guess you will start in on me. Instead of involving yourselves in meaningful, researched and informed discourse, you are stooping to making fun of members who disagree with you.

Shame on you!

Quoting catwoman: In an exclusive interview with AF, he told TC that he actually never went to the army... yes, this is a shock to all of us. He's been diagnosed by a doctor and sent to Konya as a dudu, here's an excerpt from the conversation: Quoting TC: Thank you so much for sharing. And how exactly does the process of not getting accepted to the army work? Quoting AlphaF: Once their medical status is established as such, by army Doctors, they are sent to work in the tourist industry, where they serve as valiant dudus. Some of you might know that Konya is not a great place to work as a dudu... Dudu's in Konya don't have a lot of business and when they do, they get severely criticized by the local, conservative community. This, no doubt, left an emotional scar on Alfie. This information, as you all realize, uncovers important aspects of AF's life. However, it still doesn't explain why Alfie started a company with Aengima but does NO work in it and why did Aengima remane her legal practice as "Lie, Cheat and Steal, Inc."? And above all, what will happen at the conference in Istanbul.. Important questions are still to be asked. Stay tuned... "TC.. WE dig deeper... so you don't have to "

kitty
i think you ve mixed up the facts.
look up THE IMPORTANT NIGHT the post 6.
him and his son are heros!

How come nobody ever defends Femme and Catwoman when they are insulted but are quick to jump to the defence of someone who is more than capable of speaking for himself

shame on you kitty!
how can you be so unthoughtful?
theres no depth in you!

I think she is too upset with not knowing whether quinoa exists in Turkey or not.

Alameda spoiled my thread!!!!!

Alameda are you being a party pooper?!!

TC Breaking News...

As of 12/17/07 4:06pm American time, Alfie is sleeping!

THIS JUST IN.....Quinoa is an insult to Turkishness!!

Anyone found distributing, eating, cooking or enjoying anything other than ordinary Turkish rice (pilaf) will be punished under section 301 of the Turkish penal code...vegetarians will be considered "high risk" eaters and be highly suspect.

I find it so funny when people feel really offended, insulted or hurted online, or when they think they should stand up for each other. Wake up guys, this is internet. You press one button and ALL the people are GONE.

We are all part of a community and when something is siad that I dont like, I will say something about it, if I feel treated unfairly I will reply, but these keep coming up as ongoing discussions, and what for? Its not taking any extreme forms, and its not even real. If you dont like it, there is a small [x] right up the page.

Deli_kizen, of course you are in many ways correct, but I think we tend to forget there ARE real people at the end of the line here who can be hurt. Words are powerful, more so than swords. I think we need to remember that.

Just because there is very little protocol thus far on the proper on-line manners, using common sense and sensitivity is always a good idea, don't you think?

By the way, I really love some of your photos here. Thanks for uploading them.
