Can you print "vulva" in Azerbaijan?

Apparently, you can.

Don't let the hullabaloo related to the word "bitter" make you think there is not other news in the world...

For example, the British nation is insulting Azerbaijan again. I am not sure if you know but...
A pub named Camel's toe which initially seems to mean what it means -"A toe of a camel" functions in the very center of Baku, several meters away from the passage, at 22. Mamedaliyev street.

But, in fact the name has a double meaning. The Camel's Toe has a meaning "the clear visible presence of a woman's vulva as a consequence of wearing overly right pants (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel_toe).

While some of my seedier friends had alerted me to this insult, that isn't all! Brave journalists entered the establishment despite rumors of prostitutes.
It should be noted that we did not notice any prostitute in the pub. Yet there were several curious moments. The walls of the pub were decorated with different flags including the flags of Scotland, England, Great Britain and Russia. All, except Azerbaijan. The said fact proves the direct violation of the law "On rules of use of flags of other countries and international organization in the territory of Azerbaijan". Perhaps, the pubs owners have no idea of the law. But the fact that the pub does not bear the flag of the country, it functions in, says that the bar owners do not respect the attributes of Azerbaijan.
No idea of the law indeed! Those Brits are elitist and out of touch!

Recovering from Dengue Fever

It is rare that I like a band because of its name, but sometimes it happens and sometimes I like the music too! Dengue Fever is an enjoyable cross between Grace Jones, Cake, The Cowboy Junkies all playing in a dive Phnom Penh bar (or Addis Ababa on a few tracks).

Who to vote for?!?
