we'r on the news again

as usual when i can't work, i blog. i think i'm gonna cook too.

so my fellow countrymen (and women) are on the streets; cursing each other in a face-off or throwing stones at each other (like in mazraa for example), and i find myself wishing they could all be lynched down by the army. what ever rocks one's boat...

so we're on the news again. hurray. beirut will be more famous. we can maybe sell a new touristic image of beirut.
open a new tourism attraction.
After eco-tourism, sex-tourism, please join me in welcoming the latest edition of tourism:
the post-war tension tourism.
we offer at very attractive prices, tours to our demolished cities and trips to brainwashing rallies of both pro-government and pro-opposition movements. In addition to our guides to protests, we also give crash courses in throwing stones at opposing fellow countrymen, cursing your opponents effectively and of course, our favorite, burning tyres and trash in the middle of the streets.
Additional classes of moving cars from the middle of the street and throwing them on the curbs are given to people deemed physically fit.

Future tv is unbelievable. i think they live on a different planet.

zooz, i love ur manyakeh!!! i guess a therapeutic way to deal with all the madness and akel hawa going on in leb!!! it's sickening, to say the very least! by the way, do you know anything about this march 11 'new' movement? apparently, trying to find a middle ground? their concept: 14-8=6, 6/2=3, 8+3=11 & 14-3=11!!! hurray!!! hehehehe did the math ;-)

hey! so glad to hear from you. bizooz.
it seems it might be some saida dude who has loads of money and trying to get in the political game.
and as far as my math goes, ur calculations are right. very funky idea, shitty application though. the billboards are so bad, they reprinted them coz noone could read em :D
