Book signing of a book signing

Zena el Khalil signs copies of her book "Beirut I Love You" in the
background, while in the foreground Sara signs the page she's
mentioned on! At the Book Fair in Biel, Beirut.

Beirut Street View

Those 2 are friends of mine.

Welcome to Cambridge

Bike lot outside Cambridge train station. Yes, a lot of people ride bikes in this town. This wasn't the whole lot either.

Welcome! Fancy a cup o' tea? Oh, and please keep the fuck off the bloody grass, eh?


Oh those wild Cambridge kids and their anarchistic, obscenely intellectual graffiti.

Notice how the "Duke of Edinburgh", who contributed nothing to this discovery, gets just as many lines on this plaque as do the discoverers of DNA.

Credit Crunch Sale

High St Kensington, London.

They really like to call it the "Credit Crunch" here a lot. As someone
said, it starts to sound more like a chocolate bar the more you say
it. Even with 70% off I still wouldn't shop here.

The John Snow Pub

In Soho, London.

It's President Obama

The Wed 5 Nov issue of The Guardian records the occasion (yes I'm in
London now).

Now that Obama's going to be president...

...it occured to me that all this anti-bush paraphernalia and
memorabilia that has so colored the american urban landscape over the
past 8 years may soon all fade away with the times. So I thought I'd
immortalize this one, shot from a car in a New Haven parking lot.

Waiting to Vote for Obama

New Haven. The whole thing took an hour and a half but eventually I
got my "I Voted Today" sticker and that's what it's all about.
