Being Arabic illiterate I would normally thumb through the local dailies at work imagining these gentlemen were some kind of senior citizen prospective suitors. It is only now that I realize these were not meant to be matrimonial ads. I can’t begin to tell you how stupid I felt reading this entry.

Is that feasible? I know for a fact that it was 11,000 KD a week and a half ago...but do you guys think it went up that high?
