NICHOLAS AND THE PROVERB OF THE DONKEY

Submitted by HARRAK (Canada), Feb 21, 2006 at 22:44

..hey Nicho, there is an Arabic proverb that says :

If you want the man to understand, touch him with a word
If you want the donkey to understand, touch him with the sword

That means the man gets the message by verbal communicatioon and the donkey gets it by physical communication...

Based on that, a man should understand that when I invited Aisha to do cartoons on me, there was a message implied to leave the prophet away from this stupid cartoon game.

If you need a physical communication Nicho, you can consider crossing the red light..

later,
