BigBear Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Since the start of the weekend (with exception to Adam;s drive by) things have been really quiet. I keep checking several times a day thinking this thing is going to pop at any moment. the old phrase the "silence is deafening" comes to mind. Can't wait to get osme real updates from folks soon! Until then....here's to hoping and here's to hoping Adam has big news about those items he is waiting on...come Wednesday! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zigmeister Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Yes it is.....you can almost hear a tree falling. It is probably going to be slow news days for a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then....here's to hoping and here's to hoping Adam has big news about those items he is waiting on...come Wednesday! Now that Sunday and Monday have come and gone for an RV, that leaves Tuesday through Thursday in the "sweet spot" for an RV action. IMO, if we go beyond the 29th without an RV, all bets are off. For the Iraqis to go thorugh the Arab Summit with a toilet paper currency would be beyond belief. So much for the much-vaunted Iraqi pride and Shabibi's statement that he would RV before the Arab Summit. Then again, he said last June 20th, that the RV would happen "in 7 to 10 days". How did that work out for us? This country is truly an enigma. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WallyWeaver Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 I'm still rolling on the September train.... This is helpful in many ways.... mainly, I don't get too emotionally attached to any news that it could happen sooner. I just keep riding and wait, patiently. Oh, and I also purchase more IQD, as my budget allows, of course. I remember when I first joined here last July and a Rv seemed imminent. I quickly purchased some IQD because I didn't want to miss the boat. Well, since then, I became a VIP member, then an OSI member, then I upgraded to Platinum. Also, I have acquired much more IQD. I wrote that to say this: use the delay as an opportunity to better position yourself rather than as an opportunity to be anxious. Something will happen with the IQD at some point. Don't stress so much.... WW. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snotrocket Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 No news is good news? I still like the next couple of weeks as a possible window. If nothing happens by mid April then I'll look toward June. Of course there's always the usual September/Ramadan hype to look forward to! Sit tight - it's coming 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrello Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 NEWS FLASH: There is plenty of news out there. I visit the Arab news agency sites, and there is news. There are no details on what is happening inside of the upcoming Summit, but there is news. No one is willing to bring it over. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

learning all i can Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 you do sound rude......and it is attitudes like this that cause them to leave..........good to see you are a christian.............GO DINAR pap, I just said I didn't mean to sound rude but I find it rude to just keep on and on about something that we were ask to quite bringing up... Thats what stirs the pot...Its not like this was the 1st time that things like this have happened and as You said, it won't be the last....Why not just let it go. Is it going to help or make Adam change his mind to keep on and on? As far as being a Christian, that doesn't mean that I don't make mistakes and I don't mess up because I do, everyday and I will until the day I die....Probably the biggest sinner on this site so don't hit me with that kind of guilt, thats not what Christiananity is all about... If its ok for all of ya'll to voice your opinions about this then it should be ok for me to voice mine...don't ya think? 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Adams site, he did what was best last yr and I'm sure it will work out for the best this year...get over it. Yeah, I know it wont be the end of the world BUT. There are NOW some very productive people who for one reason or another have either decided to leave or just not post or make the EFFORT that we so sorely miss ( ever heard of you dont know what you have till its gone ? ) Well its kind of like that to me. So as far as no one being banned some good member has decided to leave . And from the looks of things others are or will follow. I feel intimidated to post to much as I don't want to ruffle to many feathers . My intentions are for there to be good quality news and discussion here and IMO that is why the majority are here. I am hoping that the members that have chosen to leave WILL drive by and realize how much they are NEEDED and MISSED. And there you have it . That's my honest opinion..........

Quad Quad, I know and I understand exactly what you are saying but we can't get all down in the dumps with long sad faces and try to get others down by bringing this up in every post. What good is that? Surely this isn't and can't be the worst thing that has happened in the lives of the folks on DV! I just read a post that a member is fixin to loose everything. I find that much more to worry over and be sad about than this. Here again, I didn't mean to sound as if I didn't care but why try and keep others upset when we can just let it go and look to our future in high hopes. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
