Steve in Beirut

September 22, 2006

to the avid readers


well, It's samar and jeremy. We 're waiting nervously to hear news from steve and Andrea, who at this moment are deep within the frenzed bowels of the hizbollah celebration. I tried to convince them out of it, not because i think it's dangerous, but because I object to the "Celebration". Just for you to imagine the context, we are really confortable in a very nice restaurant bar, with nice music, and free broadband, electricity, AC and good food, watching on a big screen The Speech. And probably, they have no idea where they are, and we'll be expecting a phone call from them soon, either to tell us that they are lost, or that they have chosen to convert to freedom fighters. We will be heading soon to Bliss street, for a fruit cocktail, topped with ice cream and Hommos. we might be cracking up a bit, lack of sleep, continous work, absurd celebration in the middle of a ravaged place, and vodka cocktails with hommos! When they call us, I suppose we will consider telling them how to get here..dont' worry, they will be fine. they learned some arabic, and they made friends in Baajour
