during this week i have seen
1- a long bearded mullah type in gallabeya riding a harley davidson
2- a taxi sporting a single ostrich plume in its baggage holder - a la cyrano de bergerac
3- a fellow on scooter with one shib-shibed foot apparently holding down the boot of a white ford fiesta , he looked very curiously like a dog peeing against a tree
4- in the middle of gameat el dowal street a donkey half keeled over , peeing while the fellow riding the caretta blithely examines his nails
5-el amn el markazy (the egyptian version of S.W.A.T) surrounding cairo university despite the lack of a demonstration
life is so sweetly surreal

haha, good stuff. u have to admit though, it's awesome to be living in this parallel dimension known as cairo. Never boring...
Lol no.3 made me choke on my coffee. Stuff that makes you wanna pinch yourself repeatedly while walking down the street , doesn't it?
hey, cairo on its own is a reason to blog.
btw... Amn Markazi aka central security is not the Egyptian Version of SWAT...it is the Egyptian Version of the National Guard
The Egyptian Version of SWAT is Kowaat Khasa aka Special Forces..they are subordinates of the Ministry of Interior
base and forsooth - so true
osiris - woops!
