From Tourists Streaming into Syria from Lebanon, post 47:
To: cinives
You all might find this damn funny, but my sorry ass is marooned in Beirut, where I have been working for the IMF. If anybody has any helpful suggestions on how I can get out of this war zone, I would be most grateful. Right now, the road to Syria is the only way out of Lebanon for anyone, including U.S. citizens, and the Israelis are bombing that road. I am NOT happy with the Israelis right now. I understand their concerns about their kidnapped soldiers but bombing the Beirut Airport was not going to help them in any way.

Personally, I'd see if I could find a disguise, and some good walking shoes and socks, some other items like food, water and fire.... and definitely some duct tape.
And if RY runs out of toilet paper, screw Sears and Roebuck...get your hands on the Koran. Get a few extra- if you need something to perhaps stop a bullet they could be duck taped around the torso.

rebel_yell2 is losing power at his hotel.
I love your spirit PY.
You're a good guy.
Would it be OK with you if we keep the thread free from our good natured clutter in case we can help him in some meaningful way?
Gee. That sounded bitchy. I certainly didn't mean it like that.
Still love me? :-)

Yes, that's what I mean. I suspect there is a lot more behind this than just a reaction to those attacks from Gaza and Lebanon over the last few weeks.

Absolutely!

ROFL! Good idea though.

Thanks, just trying to keep his spirits up. I've been in some situations before, but can't imagine that.

That sounds like a great idea, could probably start something in general/chat.
Gee. That sounded bitchy. I certainly didn't mean it like that.
Still love me? :-)
Not at all & of course! :-)

Not to butt in, but be careful what you post here about U.S. resources moving citizens, okay? Eyes, you know? Quite right. The NY Times might publish tomorrow!

Hello all,
fanfan made a good point that perhaps we should keep this thread open in case rebel_yell2 has to get ahold of someone.
Can we make a thread in general/chat for jokes, chatting, etc to keep his spirits up, given his situation?
