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.

Can we make a thread in general/chat for jokes, chatting, etc to keep his spirits up, given his situation?

I'm glad to say that I know where to joke and where not to. Thanks.

If this gets a quarter of an inch deeper, quietly obtaining a good knife from the hotel kitchen might not be a bad idea, either. Maybe order a whole roast chicken or some such dish from room service and request proper and appropriate carving utensils...

I could go on, but I think you get my drift..and somebody might think I'm paranoid ; )


Prepare for the worst,
hope for the best.
Take whatever comes with a smile.

How do you know it won't help the Israelis? They should have done nothing because you say so?

LOL, I didn't mean it like that.

Its just getting chatty (I certainly hold my share of blame for it!), and we should probably start another thread.

Sound cool?

Proud Yank is trying to help by relieving Rebels tension.

No more and no less.

We are all worried about the situation.

Shalom.

Doesn't sound like a bad idea. Roast pork would be a better choice.

Sure, why not.

I was also thinking that if RY2 needed to get a hold of someone specific, he would do it directly by PM.

Whatever you guyz want to do is fine by me.

Roast pork garnished with bacon bits and sausage stuffing!

And if any gets spilled on the floor, some strong cleaning chemicals would be in order. RY would just need to use care not to get it in anyone's eyes ; )

You might want to grab some bottled beverages and canned goods and practice speaking with a Canadian accent.

"I'll be praying for them."

Roger that, I have been praying for the IDF since I heard the news last night.

I know. I'm frightened too.

God Bless our world. It sure isn't looking too good right now.

God Bless you.
