Omaima Aree Nelson, Who Killed, Chopped Up, Cooked and Ate Husband of 2 Months, Seeks Parole

Not a bad joke, but the words of a woman now seeking parole in sunny California- where she hasn't seen the light of day in 20 years: "Nothing tastes as good as the man I married. It's the sauce that does it." "How could I forget that Thanksgiving weekend 1991 rampage? Egyptian-born model and 24-year-old nanny Omaima Aree Nelson bludgeoned, skinned and chopped up her husband of two months--and twice her age--in their Costa Mesa apartment. With her olive skin, slender form and impeccably dressed in red hat, red high heels and red lipstick, the newlywed went on to hold marathon sessions grinding the deceased's body parts in the garbage disposal. But she just couldn't get rid of all of 6-foot-4, 230 lbs. of William E. Nelson, criss-crossing the county in his red Corvette with trash bags filled with human remains she hoped ex-boyfriends would help her make disappear. So, she boiled, breaded, deep-fried and--yes--ate body parts, dipping the ribs in barbecue sauce and later joking, "Nothing tastes as good as the man I married. It's the sauce that does it." "

' "Suddenly, that same person said with a pinch of confidence: "bte7ko 3arabé?" In a Lebanese accent. I instincts turned towards him and smiled. After some chit chat, he asks me: "where from?" Followed after some time by "what's your last name?" '

And the other side is also on Facebook! "One of my pro-regime relatives has recently joined a group on Facebook called the "Algerian-Syrian Electronic Alliance".

And straight from Brand New Chubby we bring you the latest Amman observations and documentation: (It's been a while since we've heard from this local Jordanian blogger with a difference!- ed) "He’s an Icon, a symbol who is always seen in Central Amman.

Alternative Ammani Fridays – Inner City Camping!

How do you like to use your Jordan Friday? "One of the fun things about life in Amman is the regularity and uniformity of common day off, Fridays. Most people don’t work. Christian schools take Sunday off, for an oddly cool school week, everyone else takes Saturday. So Friday is the only day everyone has off. Most everyone sleeps in, don’t honk horns early, dads get the fixings for a traditional breakfast. Lots of men get up early for early morning football."
