That's right, campers, After two weeks and about thirty bad movies, our blogging vacation is over and we're ready to jump right back into it! Here's a summary from 1/14/2011 - 1/26/2011:

And now:
Is anyone surprised that this is going on?
You can't walk into a country like Egypt and expect civility, right?
I mean, it's not like they were amongst the first societies to have running water and irrigation... They don't have any 5000 year old massive and impressive stone structures built with more sophistication than modern buildings... it's not like they had one of the largest and longest lasting empires in history... it's not like... okay I'm done with this rant, but come on! Get your act together Egypt!
It's one thing when Lebanon has a terrorist group get rid of its government (That happened last week, want proof?), the Lebanese ruling class have an average IQ of 16, but Egypt?
At this point, we have a letter from Ra, former Sun God of Egypt that we would like to share:
"Look, Egypt,
Your friendship with Lebanon is okay. He can be a nice guy... but....
You guys have known each other a long time, and while I understand that, I think he's just a bad influence sometimes.
Let's be frank, Lebanon rode on the short bus to school for a reason.
Try not to follow his example too much.
Take care,
Daddy"
Yeah, so that happened...
I had a feeling you'd blog about the recent happenenings in Egypt. I love it. Just wanted to let you know that eventhough I'm not in Journalism anymore that I'm still reading. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteShane-
ReplyDeleteNice work on this post. Watch your satirical voice, though, it waffles a little bit. You seem to hint that Egypt's long history of advanced civilization would make it a surprise candidate for such an occurrence. Yet the overall tone of the piece kind of scolds Egypt. Keep up the good work.
