...barbaric. Banks adopting sharia: are we talking about that same sharia that favors stonings and beheadings as legitimate punishments? I feel sorry for poor Khalfan who was shocked by the sight of women not covered from head to toe and poor Norini who was "so scared" of coming into contact with nonhalal products. This is what happens when the Middle Ages come to the 21st century, when superstition is taken seriously and made respectable. Pedro Pinheiro de Almeida, ATHLONE, IRELAND...

...alone. Over the next few days, I heard a dozen or so complaints from people that Tagged had spammed their entire contact list. One quick sweep of the blogosphere reveals a multitude of Tagged victims, dating back to 2007. But the scam is red-hot now. "Don't Get Tagged!" one blogger warned on June 6. "Spread the word: Tagged stinks!" shouted a Facebook friend the same day. The Better Business Bureau's grade for Tagged: a big fat F. Yes, I blame myself for being gullible. But the site was confusing and dishonest. And it's nice to know...
