Channel. I especially like the program called 'Pawn Stars'.

I'm probably a descendant
of cannibals because I would eat an entrecote steak every day, every hour.

Hi Idan,
ReplyDeleteWow!! You chose a very funny photo :-)
Your wish "A date with Bar Refaeli" not so original, and I am not sure that her newlywed husband will like it ...LOL
Well, Etti, I'm sure it won't be easy for him, but he'll have to accept it.
DeleteLove the History Channel! My husband and kids don't get it- good to know I'm not the only one...
ReplyDelete'Game of Thrones' - sooooo adicted, can't wait for the new season!!! Do you think John Snow is really dead?! hope not...
George R.R. Martin has once said that “If there’s one thing we know in 'A Song of Ice and Fire', it’s that death is not necessarily permanent", so let us hope he meant it.
DeleteRe no 3: very brave of you - in this age of veganism - to admit that you're a convinced carnivore
ReplyDeleteOMG , you swam with the piranha fish ..!! Arn't they scary and dangoures?
ReplyDeletehe actually ate one, also... ask him..
DeleteMaya is right! I ate a few and they were very delicious.
DeleteTo be honest, they do look scary. But despite what many people think, piranhas are not likely to attack a healthy moving person in the water. However, they might attack a person in case that the water level is very low and the piranhas are very hungry, or in case that the person is already dead.
oh... i didnt know that . however thanks for the information :)
DeleteIdan, I looked at your photo with your dog for something like a whole minute. I could imagine Ayala and I in the same situation and the same facial expression! It seems like you're really soulmates!!! <3
ReplyDeleteI'm proud to say that some of the facts about you I've already known. However, you always surprise me! The history channal sure is pretty cool and interesting! :)
(and I demand a class shakshuka evening at the end of the year!)
Maya, I take it that staring at Idan's snap with his dog for an entire minute made you recall your own relationship with your dog?
DeleteYep, they do look like true soulmates indeed!
Dear Maya, it's very impressive to see that you know so many things about me. I hope it won't serve you against me someday :D
DeleteWe do have a special bond my dog and I. He always knows when I'm about to return home, even after a month in Mexico!
And Yardena - I saw Ayala, and she doesn't look like a dog at all. She has more the shape of a cute little baby :)
Cute dog. How old is your doggie? You know Spanish, how did you learn that?
ReplyDeleteThank you, he's 4 years old.
ReplyDeleteI began learning Spanish from books, and I improved it when I had a Peruvian girlfriend for a few months.
