Did I not just see in a recent news weekly that high on the list of active Iraqi insurgents is a person whose first name (of three) is Izzat? Didn't look to be a title rather than a name, and with that profession I wouldn't call him full of personal dignity or honor, or commanding admiration. Leastwise, not on this side of the ocean. Maybe a societal shunning, though...

sooey generous?

If it's not too late, f please.

Izzat is quite clearly a cricket term, anyway, closely related to "Howzzat"

Now, what was that quote just featured in the WAD - ah yes, "there are three truths: your truth, my truth and the truth"!

and that doesn't even mention [ red] THE TRUTH [ /red] as revealed by my Israeli friend ;)
