In 1987, Latif Yahia was taken to Saddam's headquarters to meet Uday, Saddam's eldest son, and told that a great honour had been bestowed upon him: that because of the great likeness between them, he had been chosen to be Uday's double. For many Iraqis it would have been the highlight of their lives, but for Latif, a peace-loving man who did not agree with Saddam's brutal regime, it was not. He refused. Following a week of torture, and realising he would be killed if he continued to refuse, Latif was forced to accept the role. Sounds like some crazy movie? Not yet. There's always a book first |

HELLO DAH-LING.....
Metro-sexual From Urban dictionary.com
Modern enlightened, sort of Renaissance man. Secure and confident, capable and cool, typically well educated and stylish. Heterosexual with a twist, not gay by any means, but he probably has a few gay friends, and can easily be mistaken for gay by rednecks and jock types. The only straight guy in a fabric store or antique shop who is not being dragged there by a woman.
OH! VERSACE.....
When I first saw this dress worn Donatella Versace during the Versace Menswear show in Milan I thought it was a fine example of gorgeous fashion.
I SEE LONDON, I SEE FRANCE...
Last night was a mid-week girls night with my ladies where I arrived more than fashionably late. As always there was plenty of girl talk, we also discussed our upcoming nyc trip. We were joined by male friends who got to listen be privy to the female mind. They enjoyed the talk while it focused on breasts but left shortly after ovulation and the menstrual cycle was brought up.
