Stuff we miss out

For several reasons we are missing out or neglecting high quality local culture..
I found this interesting article so I will share it here..
I am way too tired to talk about my deeper longer thoghts that I had for a while now..I am happy if I just don't collapse on the street on my way home now..Amazing how tired a body can get..
Anyway..Here is the article :تحالف الاستبداد الديني والاستبداد السلطوي لتغييب المسرح: أيام سعد الله ونوس الثقافية والأمل الذي ما زال يحكمنا

dear c-

sounds interesting (even if the encoding is such that i can either read the article OR the title...)

this is exactly what some people alluded to in the last comments -- there are so many unspeakably horrible things happening every day ... yet life has still more beautiful moments than we can ever count.

tonight i was at a party with lots of egyptian friends (amongst many others) & while we inquired whether our friends & families in egypt are safe & sound (which they are) we still had a great party...

Hi Catherine - it's Tom here, a British jounalist who contacted you ages ahgo for an article - I am just writing to say that I am still hopeful of getting it published and in the meantime I have been inspired to start my own blog - it's at http://freelanceontheroad.blogspot.com/

Thanks again for your help...

Ayman I know what you mean..I hate censourship..But I could read the article in an internet café in Damascus..maybe they ( the café) had some kind of filter or maybe "they" were not censoring it yet by that time..Incredible that "they" feel they need to censor an article about litterature!
