Egypt

Misogynist of the Day

The guy who decided he was so weak in the loins that the sight of a woman's face drove him to distraction. And all the guys who went along with that notion, however many hundreds or thousands of years ago this crap started, thus enshrining it in the cloak of "tradition" and giving it the cover to survive as legitimate practice all over the frakking modern world.

Billmon Takes the Egyptian Train

I hereby announce a crusade to get Billmon to give up whatever the hell it is he does for a living nowadays (something to do with economics and going to conferences as best as I can tell) and take up travel writing. Swear to God this is the best stuff I've read since David Sedaris' Me Talk Pretty One Day. Go read. Oh, and put something waterproof over your keyboard, screen and other soakables if you are consuming beverages. You have been warned.
