City of the Living. Your guide to my life in Cairo. June 05, 2006. It's not a dry heat (or is it? Posted by Matt @ 10:12 PM. June 04, 2006. I am back in Cairo after another whirlwind trip away. I first spent four days visiting friends in Oxford and participating in their formal (and "solemn") graduation ceremony; then I returned to the U.S., where I attended my brother's wonderful wedding weekend. What a fun, beautiful, and heady few days that was. Posted by Matt @ 6:27 PM. View my complete profile.

City of the Living. Your guide to my life in Cairo. October 28, 2005. The Pyramids (with photos! Last Friday at a Fulbright party, I met one of last year's scholars, who is an Egyptologist working on her PhD dissertation. Over drinks and sheesha, she offered to take a bunch of us out to the pyramids for a special personal tour. So we got up really early, loaded up on coffee, and went out. This photo above is our wonderful guide, Jackie. And here is the group:. Posted by Matt @ 7:57 PM. October 25, 2005.

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. From Beirut to the Beltway. To kill an error is as good a service as, and sometimes even better than, the establishing of a new truth or fact (Charles Darwin). Sunday, January 29, 2006. Landis: let them have "50 per cent justice". Landis argued that this "compromise", supposedly facilitated by the Saudis, is the only realistic option available to Saad, who is being the "odd man out" in a region that is leaning towards saving the Syrian regime from collapse and economic s...

City of the Living. Your guide to my life in Cairo. September 27, 2005. Lars and I have settled on a flat.

I have a small screened-in balcony off my bedroom. We have a washer and good a/c and satellite TV. I'm a bit too exhausted t...

Tuesday, November 22, 2005. It’s Hizbullah's way or the Beirut-Damascus highway. On Monday. True to their party-pooper nature, they ruined the celebration before it happened, creating an uproar.

Sunday, February 05, 2006. The rule of ignorance. And his disciples invade. With lawless breeding grounds like this. How can ignorance not spread? These images speak for themselves. What a shame. The entire Lebanese cabinet, especially the ministers whose party sanctioned. This, should resign. Condemnations. Nobod...
