Not up for the challange?

Way too many pictures ladies, please I only have so much (space on my) hard-drive.

But in all seriousness, Cheers to all, and may this day be better then yesterday.

Plan of Action

Guess what folks, with the news from Lebanon, for me today is either going to be another Vodka mix Animal Planet channel induced entertainment or the driving range under the lights with few friends. I think it’s going to be the latter.

And others who feel shitty today and will feel shitty Friday, here is a plan of action:
1-Read my blog
2-Shut off your computer
3-Put on “going out clothes” commando style
4-Get the hell out of the house
5-Meet with friends at a local watering hole
6-Celebrate this day, since it was given to you with you owing nothing in return
7-Return home safely
8-You ladies undress (email me your pictures)
9-And send me a comment or two telling me how good that felt
10-And make my day :)

One more thing, if my sister is reading this, don’t you dare.

Another Heads-Up

If you’re in my neck of the woods(Whale's Vagina, CA) in the near future, do try Seniõr Pancho’s Mexican Grill. The food there is so good that you will eat your fingers, wrist, arm and shoulder with it.
My favorites so far (besides the Mexican beauties):
Chimichanga
Carne Asada

Heads-Up

The Wall Street Journal is available for free this week.

Another SUN-day

If you expect more of this, I wouldn't disagree with you.
And why shouldn't they?
If I were to be treated as a second/third or forth class citizen in my own country, then you better believe I'm going to burn something.
"We don't have the American dream here," said Rezzoug, as he surveyed the clusters of young men. "We don't even have the French dream here."

"We want to change the government," he said, a black baseball cap pulled low over large, chocolate-brown eyes and an ebony face. "There's no way of getting their attention. The only way to communicate is by burning."


"It goes against Newton's law. Everything on earth gets drawn to the surface by gravity, but in the case of flying cars, it's different," Song said. "There should exist the same opposite magnitude of power as the earth's gravity-pull. So, a balance is formed between gravity and reaction, which makes flying cars float in the atmosphere," he explained.

"To study more on flying cars and the super-string theory, Yoo-geun wants to join CERN," the father said.
I can barely put two sentences together and we have this kid who is thinking of creating flying cars.


Oh yeah, Christian nut jobs in this country are really making a difference in todays society. Please do read on. These are the kids of those who attend Megachruches funded by Billy Graham and his ilk. (I don't have factual data proving this ;), but I doubt I'm very far off)


I feel like fool today.

Outside the Box?

If you've always wanted your name up in lights and are willing to settle for having it down on your belt, you might be just the demographic makers of the scrolling LED belt buckle are looking for.

Is this really a good idea? I mean I'm all for thinking outside the box, but....you be the judge.
mine reads "caution: choking hazzard"

Change the Way you Look at things, and the things you Look At Change.

If you are feeling sad and lonely, depressed and glum, I am happy to announce that there is finally a quick fix to such a state of mind.

Warning/Achtung: You must follow these steps carefully and not skip ahead at any time.

Step One: Purchase and have readily available a full bottle of vodka
Step Two: Mix said bottle of vodka with your favorite citric juice
Step Three: Consume 3-4 Mugs
Step four: Watch Animal planets: Planet's Funniest Animals

These simple steps my friends will cure you of all ills. Take if from me, I’m not just a member, but I’m also client.

Shifting Tides

I have a confession to make. I find myself walking a tight rope when it comes to my politics these day. Here is what I’m talking about.

My neighbor in Beirut, 30-35 years my senior, once confessed to me that he has five different flags in his apartment. During the civil war he had his Kataeb flag hanging from the balcony, but had with him the Lebanese flag, the US flag, a Palestinian flag, and the Syrian flag. He told me he had a flag for whoever ruled the day. I sincerely disliked this man at the time. I thought he lacked a backbone and his principals were skewed.

At 30, I find myself shifting with the tide as did my neighbor 12-15 years ago. I disagree with most everything neocon ultra religious nut wings, but whenever I find this worldview somehow in agreement with Lebanese politics, I find I don't mind it so much.

So there you have it. You may call it having double standards or being a hypocrite. Ya whatever! If it works for Lebanon, I’m for it.

36 Billion reasons to Investigate

It is encouraging that both UN reports are being discussed and the government is trying to follow up on the recommendations. One hopes those accused will have a fair trial and if convicted, punished to full extent of the law.

I am curious however, if and when trial dates are set, are we going to have the chance to look in the financial dealings/books of those Lebanese and Syrians mentioned in Mehlis report? If I am not mistaken, Aoun called for this a few months back.

All Lebanese should have the opportunity to have a look at the late Hariri’s books, and I’m sure Lahoud, Murr and Jumblatt clans have a quite a few stories to tell in their own books.

The national debt is a serious problem that has understandably taken a back seat these days, but I hope in due time those responsible for it’s dismal state are going to be held responsible.
