it took 25 minutes just to get out of the parking lot

anyway 7amdella 3assalama to those back in town, and to the rest garrat 3enkom and i hope u made the best of it

The price of freedom

Smugglers send migrants overboard to drown

heartless migrant smugglers forced the poor souls off the boat when they saw police nearby


how awful that this still happens in the 21st century



it wistfully reminds me of Gericault's parinting, raft of the medusa...

Noooooooo !

i'm at the airport right now, and as i went through passport control after cehck in, the guy looks at me straight in the eyes and says "you cant travel, there's a "man3 sefar" (a block) on your name, i'm sorry." so i think to myself SH*T, my traffic fines have finally caught up with me and i'm screwed.

then he smirks and says "it's ok, i'll let it slide and let you through this time."

ha. ha.

Let's go out for a drink

'tis a head scratcher

Typical Lebanese

after reading mosan's last post i came to realize that some songs have and will always remind me of beirut. ya3ni they're the kinds of oldish songs that, when played in a lebanese restaurant or a bar, ppl basically go nuts and every single one of them sings along. these songs are:

- losing my religion by REM

- like the way i do by melissa ethridge

- because the night by ??

- wind of change by the scorpions

- hotel california by the eagles

of course there's more but thats all i cant think of right now ...
