@ccprofile, i think what theGame prolly meant was the second-highest peak, K2. Oh and we also have Karachi, one of the biggest cities of the world. The original city of lights.

Studying in an international school with Nepali class-fellows, i know there are two things to stay clear of with Nepalese. Mount Everest, and birthplace of Buddha, Lumbini. Back me up on this,ccprofile?

@khan91: Do you have nothing better to do than to dis people out?As for the reason why i asked where you were from I thought i read somewhere that you were from beijing.
And as for my geography, it's good enough to know that k2 is in those highly disputed parts of kashmir which both the sides claim is theirs'.

I'm guessing sefago is not only from nigeria but went to my high school which, if he did, he'll probably remember by the name "Local Jail for Children". Can I get a holla for confirmation sefago?

Adding to Elvy:

Dostoyevsky maybe? Somehow he's very popular outside Russia. Just wanted to add smth to that vodka and KGB thing. Oh well, who am I kidding
