..by a Turkish journalist www.hurriyet.com.tr/english/8094795.asp?gid=74&sz=14322What does Karamanlis mean? It means someone from "Karaman." Well, is Karaman in Greece? Nope. Where is it? In Konya, Turkey. Where exactly then? You know, over there. Well, since Karamanlis has arrived in Turkey for an official visit, maybe it's time to take a look at some of the differences between "there" (Greece) and "here." * They have entered the EU. We have not been able to. They have gotten Greek Cyprus in too. We have not been able to push Turkish Cyprus in. They have become European Champions. We have not. They have hosted the Olympics. We have not. They have bought a bank from us. We have not bought any of theirs. They sell cotton to us. We used to sell cotton to them. They have 135 active companies here in Turkey. We have 14 or so companies active in Greece...... Their males live to an average of 78. Ours lives to an average of 67. Their women generally see the age of 83. Our women generally live at least a decade less. 6 out of every one thousand Greek babies die by the age of 5. In Turkey 45 out of every thousand babies die by the age of 5. The average Greek girl goes to school until age 18. For Turkish girls? Age 11. 27% of Greeks know a foreign language. 3% of Turks do. 82% of the population uses toilet paper. In Turkey? Only 8%. But are we always behind? No! For example, the number of books printed annually by Greece, with a population of 10 million, and Turkey, with its population of 70 million, is EQUAL! Anyway, these are some of the clear differences between "over there" and "here"-if you were interested, that is.

What many in Albania used during the early 90's... their hand... I remember a couple of times way way back when I had no paper, I was too young to care at that time.

What I wonder is.... what makes Albanians more attached to Turks? Is the lack of the toilet paper... or it is just the culture that unites? Its good to have an idol. But are you sure my Albanians.. you have the right one?

But are you sure my Albanians.. you have the right one? Albanians are neither attached to greeks, turks, serbs, montenegrins, vlachs, italians, russkies, germans, arabs or foolish little people like yourself..... Albanians are only attached to themselves, their families and their famous history of survival... I'd say we resemble somewhat the story of God's Chosen people. And, here we are, still after all the attempts to annihilate us from the southern greeks, romans, slavs, turks, serbs/greeks, serbs/greeks again, and serbs, one more time.

Eww...only 8% of Turks use toilet paper to wipe their asses? What do the rest do? Actually they wash(taret) their asses right after they take a s**t, just like majority of Albanians do, well except you, nowadays toilet paper among Albs is used to dry the ass right after washing it. you are in no position to critisize since you dont know how Albs and Turk take care their hygiene, now imagine if you touch crap with your hands and after that you wipe your hands with paper, are your hands clean after wiping your hands with paper? defenetly they are not, your hands are dirty and stinky, the same thing goes with your ass, after you wipe your ass, its still dirty,unless you wash it! so EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW to you! There is even a joke which i used to hear when i was a kid, its about a Serb and an Alb were hangin around and went to take a s**t, serb had bottle of water and alb had an newspaper, while takin a s**t alb asked the serb, hey can you give me the bottle of water, right after that serb asked the newspaper from alb, Alb asked the serb, hey man does your ass read newspaper? then serb answered with a question to the alb, does your ass drink water?

www.poopreport.com/Consumer/Content/Plys/results.htmlHow to use toilet paper Objective learn about new people Description Take a roll of toilet paper and explain to the group that this is the only toilet paper for the whole week and for them to take as much as they will need. One everyone has taken some, tell them that the number of little square sheets they have is the number of interesting facts they have to tell the group. You can use other things like gummy bears etc. instead of toilet paper. www.campresources.co.uk/activities/Ice-Breakers/20.htmlAlternatively check www.papertoilet.com/It is amazing though that when there is a discussion comparing Greeks and Turks, Albs pop into it and try to make a point in favor of the Tr side…..
