Yes, apparently she was very charismatic and pious, but I don't know too much about her myself.

By all accounts so was Jone of Ark and they still burned her.

They didn't burn Joan of Arc at the stake because she was attractive. They burned her at the stake because she was a radical revolutionary.

Dina, I saw Endgame.

Is it just me or is it getting a little solipsistic in here?

I think it is more than that, he is asking if you are sure.

Maen everyone. Ramadan starts in less than two hours :/

I work outdoors. I'd be a hypocrite if I said I was happy. :D
On the other hand, lots of visits to family and friends, everyone will cook their best, and I'll get to lose some extra kgs :P

Not celebrating, exactly. I guess you could call it the Muslim equivalent of Lent. It is a month of every year where muslims must fast, and by fasting I mean that they are not allowed to eat or drink from dawn till dusk (heh). Same goes for sex. They're also supposed to be at their most pious, no profanity, gossip, or any of the little daily sins. They should give to the poor, spend as much time as possible praying and reading Quran. It's supposed to teach self control and discipline, as well as remind us how the poor fare every day of their lives.
