In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
114. High above all is Allah, the King, the Truth! Be not in haste with the Qur'an before its revelation to you is completed but say, "O my Lord! Advance me in knowledge!"
Ta Ha 20:114

A doughy kind of day
The flat bread I bought this morning and the calzones I made for dinner were all doughy.
Erin, you are like the cat that just has to be there so that the rat doesn't go there because there is a cat there. Mind you, there are rats that are bold enough to go where the cats are. Most of the time, the rats would seek easy prey.
A cap on earnings is a very intelligent and very sneaky thing to do, because the victims would not notice anything is wrong until they reach the point where they are working harder but not making more money. Of course, that would be the smart way to exercise the cap, is to wait until the cap is reached before taking or withholding money. Human law does not recognize prevention as a form of justice, but at least you can avoid getting ripped off inshaAllah. But if money is taken immediately like is the usual, greedy thing to do, then it will leave a trail of money which can be traced. One can always count on the greed of others: it is more reliable than any human friend. Plus to pick on immigrants is especially cunning, because few of them have the legal balls to fight back. Suppose a cap on earnings is in effect, then these questions arise:
1. Who ordered the cap?
2. Did Congress approve it?
3. Who gets the money that the victims lose?
4. Will this cap extend to everybody eventually and if so, who is exempted?
Natty, you look so cute in that Maybelline campaign! It's a stroke of marketing genius, to have models that don't need makeup promote makeup so the consumer would think that if they use this makeup then they would look like they don't need makeup. **Applause**

Qur'an 20170314
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
105. They ask you concerning the
mountains. Say, "My Lord will uproot them, and scatter them as dust."
106. God will leave them as plains, smooth and level.
107. Nothing crooked and curved will you see in their place.
Ta Ha 20:105-107

Travel is for the young
I've certainly had my fill of travel. I've traveled so much that my feet hurt. People are the same all over the world anyway. Now that I've grown up, I want to make like a tree and plant my roots deep, and be big and shady. More important is my mission to please Allah with music. And God gave me the idea to create a tourist attraction here, so I don't go anywhere. I just stay in Perlis, and to be perfectly honest with you, I don't care if I ever leave this place until I die. I want to marry you, so that looks like I'm going to have to travel anyway to give my wife her vacations, but otherwise I don't and don't want to go anywhere. You've had your fill of extensive travel, haven't you Erin? It's not the same if you're a nobody. If you are a nobody, then nobody would care where you go or whether or not you live or die. But once we marry inshaAllah, you will be Rock and Roll royalty. And you don't see royalty gallivanting wherever they please without an armed guard, do you? So get your travel kicks in now, before we marry.
Do you hear that Natty? Travel will be restricted once we marry inshaAllah, so get your travel kicks in now. Don't wait to be a tourist, be a tourist NOW. By the way, my source tells me that the US government has slapped an earnings cap on you and your brother. This means you can get famous all you want, but you won't be able to earn as much as the big dogs. This seems to me hard to beat, but it may not be entirely legal, plus you can always use non-US linked resources. I'm telling you again Natty, stay away from America for 4 to 8 years.

I don't want to rule the world
I want my wives. I want to go to heaven. I want you. Thank you for your love.
I was gathering coconut trash over at your house inshaAllah so I could burn them, when I heard someone crying. It was a little Bat Cat kitten, crying his heart out, coming towards me. I picked him up, and saw that he had wandered into a nest of army ants, and there were a few clinging on to him. I removed the ants. He was only about the size of a mouse, but he was chubby, so I guessed that could not have been a wild kitten. And I was right: I saw his mother staring at me on the other side of the fence at the neighbor's house. So I put him down over the fence in front of his mother, and guess who was there: Bob Cat! Bobby had left home when he became big and strong. Sometimes he would show himself to me, but otherwise I wouldn't see him at all. But he was there just now, right where I put down the kitten, staring at me. It occurred to me that he was the father! Then it occurred to me that Floofy is now a grandma!

Man
I told the guys at Kuula the other day that the male has to be ready at all times. We were talking about cats, of course.
Meanwhile, the Big Machine cranks along.

Woman
Yes, you are a woman. I will love you, and take you as mine. InshaAllah, I will marry you, give you your own house, feed and clothe you and our children, and I will help protect you but Allah is the Best to Protect. We will shop together, we will cook together, we will eat together, we will plant food crops and flowers together, we will spend our nights together. You can be with me when I sing every day, if it doesn't put you to sleep. You will find me there with you, working on my laptop while you do whatever it is you do. We will go on long hikes together, or rather you can run and I'll be on the motorcycle right beside you, and if you get too lazy to run then we can go get ice cream instead. And after we turn out the light and fall asleep, you can crawl onto the floor with me. I will do all this with you, inshaAllah. I will gaze uppn your face and thank God for how beautiful you are.
You are not every woman in the world to me, you are my wife inshaAllah. So I have to turn away from all other women in the world in favor of you, because you are my wife. Except my mother, of course.
