C.A.I.R.O.: November 2006
http://jezincairo.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
FIREIN.C.A.I.R.O. Sunday, November 26, 2006. She's got it m.a.i.d. The other morning, I awoke to find the maid sitting on our couch in the living room yapping away at light speed on the telephone. Seriously, I'm not paying this woman to come in and use our phone so she can call Kuwait or whatver on my effing tab. Yo, I'm paying her to do the dishes and to pretend to dust and to take care of the laundry and to empty the garbages and to pick up my socks and the like. You know,. Monday, November 20, 2006.

FIREIN.C.A.I.R.O. Tuesday, January 30, 2007. Roomie Shane and I spent the weekend and a lot of money in Jordan this weekend. It was a good time. Highlights of the three-day stay included: floating in the Dead Sea with Jordanian peasants, scaling rose coloured rocks at the lost ancient city of Petra (which ranks among the coolest things of all times), talking politics and crimes of passion with Cheryl and decoding bourgeous menu choices at a stylish, fusion/meat-market restaurant in Amman.

FIREIN.C.A.I.R.O. Wednesday, October 25, 2006. Explosions have been going off all around Cairo for the past few days. Everytime I try and drift off to sleep, "BANG! And then I hear shouting and more banging. Most disturbingly, most of these explosions are caused by children.some as young as five or six years old. Okay, enough with the theatrics: the explosions are little firecrackers set off during the feast of Eid, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan. Other highlights over the past few week...

FIREIN.C.A.I.R.O. Saturday, March 24, 2007. TIB This is Berlin. Got directions to the infamous Panorama bar. Took tram line to the last stop. Searched for Panorama bar for two hours. It s hidden by disused industrial buildings in East Berlin. Behind a stretch of empty warehouses we spotted a row of bright lights along a gravel path. We arrived at 3 am. The club was intense. Relentless minimal techno courtesy of Luciano. The club s decorations consist of abstract art and a giant colour photo a harry pussy.

FIREIN.C.A.I.R.O. Saturday, April 14, 2007. I'm Feeling Hellas Good. Yo, Athens rules ok.

Model 500 - live featuring Juan Atkins. Rhythm and Sound - 6 hour dj/live with vocalist. Vladislav Delay (aka Luomo). I wonder how long it would take to drive from Cairo to Detroit?

FIREIN.C.A.I.R.O. Thursday, September 28, 2006. Ramadan Pt. II. Oh yeah, one more thing I forgot to mention about Ramadan: during the entire holy month, all of the liquor stores are closed. As if it wasn’t tough enough already to get a drink in this town. Further complicating matters is the bar situation. While bars are still open, they actually have security working the doors to check passports. Anyways, back to Ramadan. As the streets empty out during Iftar (literally, break fast ) I took the chance to...
