Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

A Google executive who has gone missing in Egypt has been "symbolically" named the spokesman for an opposition group, in an attempt to free him from being held by Egyptian authorities, CBS News reports.
Wael Ghonim, Google's head of marketing for the middle east, flew into Egypt last week to participate in the demonstrations against the government. At some point he went missing, and one of his last tweets ominously read, "we are all ready to die."
The Egyptian government will not comment on whether it has Ghonim or not, but many suspect he is being held.
The demonstration where he Ghonim may have been captured was organized "largely" by the April 6 movement, CBS News reports. The April 6 movement is a youth movement in Egypt formed almost three years ago.
To help free him, April 6 named him their spokesman. The Egyptian government says it wants to start to talk with opposition groups, but the leader of the April 6 group says if the Egyptian government wants to talk, then it has to talk to Ghonim.
It's a very odd, showy, act and from here we have no idea what it means.
