Mmmm....what books would you recommend? I really wanted to read some, but don't know where to start!

The books I read are the kind where someone/something gets killed/blown up in the first 3 chapters.  Otherwise I lose interest.  Lol

I can share my books with you (or anyone else) - just let me know!

Interesting choice. I like fiction / action / thriller / murder / suspense.

Ei - what version of CS is it? do i have to buy my game? so that i can beat the pulp out of you guys?

Send me a PM so that i can patch up immediately....thanks!

I have many versions of CS I don't really know their versions.

CS 1.6 works fine and is widely used. It's easily to download also (below 300mb). If you download other latest versions then send me a link, so can we can be on the same platform.

I've never spent from my pocket on games. Why should I, when they are all available online for free. You just have to find the right link that works.

We'll see who "beats the pulp" out of whom

ok - will download CS 1.6...just to make sure it's the same version and all (compatibility issues), you better pm me!

I downloaded it yesterday! File size is about 900 MB
I'll check it out later if I finished downloading.

I downloaded a zipped version. All you have to do is only unzip the file and your game is ready to play. No setup / installation required.

isohunt.com rocks.
or make an account on rapidshare

Anyone from desert could suggest something to do in here! Lol
Like extreme sport!
Or historical places to visit?

Really??? No????

If the answer is yes, well then yeah I guess better to fly out of this place!!!

There is ALWAYS something to do.  It all boils down to how adventurous you are and your willingness to do these things.  you can always:

(a)  catch up on your sleep - always works for me!!
(b)  catch up on your reading - this works for me as well - in fact, I have some books I can share
(c)  go hiking out in the desert - have done this a few times with friends - last time being this past weekend.  You can also hook up with the hash that organizes this thing on a weekly basis
(d)  go ride a quad in the desert - did this once and had fun
(e)  the National Museum is pretty cool - just make sure about the timing - you can go online to check this out
(f)  go shopping - I know this gets old but you can always just walk around the mall
(g)  hang out in Batha - I have done this a few times and have been able to try some good food at very reasonable prices

I am sure there are a few more things you can do during the holiday.  If none of the above suits you then I dunno what else to tell ya to do!! 

it is good that you have ideas.
what kind of books you read?

Oh some of my colleagues are going to Bahrain, some to mecca. Others are having their own plans. Looks like they forgot to include me in the plan

Warning: I might be more dangerous in the game

Brilliant!!!
But we should have  idea about the expenses for those activity so that Expat.comgers who are available in Riyadh could decide whether they wanna come of not! Then we could discussed about the date of the activity and the transportation as well!
