You wouldn't believe how difficult it is to rent land on an airport in Nigeria for purposes. My lad has changed persona to a new "airport manager" who sent me the Terms and Conditions relating to land rental at the airport as a Word document. However, these refer to use of a Web site, and conclude with the clause:

Quote:

9. is a company registered in Sweden under number 556236-4313 whose registered office is , Sweden

Globalization has gone far enough, I think (and global find and replace likewise). My lad is deep enough in with me and rootuser for me to be able to question this, though.

The word you are looking for is "lazy". Lads often borrow from all over the net and often forget to change names or update info.

Hey, I saw this a few weeks ago and was hoping to see your goat rental thing resurface...Seems like you could do something fun with a goat guy and his agency hosting a goat beauty pagent as a variation of this one Laughing

Camel beauty pageants become popular pastime
Seattle Times ^ | March 17, 2008 | Katherine Zoepf

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia � "It's just like judging a beautiful girl," said Fowzan al-Madr, a camel breeder from the Kharj region southeast of Riyadh. "You look for big eyes, long lashes and a long neck � maybe 39 or 40 inches."

As he spoke, Madr was surveying the offerings at Saudi Arabia's largest camel market, on the outskirts of Riyadh.

The days are long past when camels were crucial to life, a chapter lost in increasing urbanization and technology. But there is still pleasure in raising them, sometimes for milk and meat, for racing and, yes, for their beauty.

Camel beauty pageants, in which camels are judged on their looks and dressage, are held all over Saudi Arabia. They have become so popular in recent years that a respected Saudi cleric recently issued a decree against them, saying that they encouraged pride.

The death in January of Mashoufan � a male camel who earned celebrity status after winning first prize in a number of pageants and was said to be worth more than $4.5 million � was widely reported, and his owner received condolences from around the country.

Camel breeding is a multimillion-dollar industry in Saudi Arabia, and late winter is an especially popular time for wealthy Saudi camel owners to arrange parties in the desert to spend time with their favorite camels.
