oh yeah...u ever watch the reality show on cbs "amazing race." when the contestants travel to countries in africa and india...damn...the filth and stench u can see from the contestants. yeah that's real ghetto. even though pjs in east harlem smell like that sometimes with dog sh*t everywhere. ppl in these pjs just dont pick up their dog poop after their dogs have been popping. should fine these mofos.
lol...i dunno about that...most part of the bx..and some pjs in harlem and east harlem looks like a 3rd world countries sometimes.
actually, not so much.
when you see people in harlem living in a shack made out of leftover wooden planks and a rusty corrugated tin roof, take a picture and e-mail it to me please.
you havent witnessed poverty in a third world country to make a remark like that, so i'll just take as you trying out for a comedy career, which i strongly advise against you doing.
there was a news report that i read a few months back about haitians being such in a state of hardship that the poor people eat dirt....as a delicacy.
i have never heard of people eating dirt in harlem.

Actually the dirt in Haiti is not REALLY dirt..it is in fact partially dirt and is used as seasoning or as a prepared side meal, since supposedly the ground there actually tastes appealing, and has high mineral content...supposedly very healthy for you.
partially dirt....so whats the other part? and in the news report several people they interviewed cause it caused them severe stomach pain, so how good could it be

considering there is little to no sanitary infrastructure in Haiti you can only imagine what else is mixed into your seasoning
no thanks, I'll pass on the side of dirt with my dinner,

yes i have witness extreme poverty in the philippines (even though im not a filipinos) while i was there very young.
yes i may not see shack and wooden plan in east harlem....but u can't argue that harlem, east harlem and south bronx has one of the highest infant mortality and ashtma rate for little kids compare to a their world country. stats dont lie man.

wat about high infant mortality rate in these hoods?
Please cite your sources.
Infant mortality rate in Angloa of reported cases only (and many cases in these countries go unreported, unlike here where EVERY case is reported) was 184 deaths per 1000 births.
I made that up!!!! A little dirt stew anyone? Yum!
