Like other parts of Africa, Tanzania's healthcare system is in a poor state of affairs. The situation is appalling and a solution seems unattainable, but there is still hope.

Spam Imam: Overcoming Coffee and Cars

My friend refers to my car as a ‘she’ can I still drive it or open ‘her’ door?

Firstly, I would suggest you excommunicate your “friend” and promptly reclaim your cars masculinity. This can be done by repainting it a more manly color, such as black or grey, removing the muffler, covering it in mud to suggest you have recently gone off-roading, and it always helps…

This imam is good at issuing fatwas(spams)(=P)

I agree I.Maria, SPAM IMAM gives out intellectual gold.

I hope no one takes this as actual advice.

who on earth would take this as real advice! I do however, like the idea of re-orienting myself when trying to collect change from the starbuck’s person. There has been many a time when more of the change ended up on the floor, and that posed a whole bunch of other problems : )

I really look forward to reading the next one - these are great.

Hey MH, I don’t think there are many people that think like you but if they do, I think we should be worried.

Raj (if that is your real name)

I don’t know if your muslim but some people really take this advice to heart. And I think its great advice for those that need it.
Also the real issue here is what is the girl doing in Starbucks in the first place? She can go to wallmart and buy a coffee maker and put it in the kitchen by the microwave(if you catch my drift) As far as girls and driving: the Saudis have it right. This broad just rear ended me last night and now veronica is all banged up! can you believe it? I mean first of all how did she pass drivers ed and secondly where did she have to be at 3:30 in the afternoon other then at home where she should have been in the first place. so all of this could have been avoided if she just stayed home and took care of the haandi on the stove.

Thunderfromjalander,
Whoa… Me thinks this comment was meant to spark additional retalitory comments! Discussion and argumentation are great, but with a comment as ridiculous as this, I won’t give you the pleasure. Instead, I’ll add my own addtional advice to “Spam Imam’s” : As Muslims, lets avoid Starbucks as the owner has publically announced that he gives money to Israel. Why not try ‘Second Cup’, ‘Tim Hortons’ or another local chain?
