Wifi hotspot

Free wifi.....Yeee Ha!!

Thanks to all

Thanks to all who offered their condolences and well wishes. I'm with my family in sunny (and hot and humid) Florida. The birds sing, the flowers bloom, the sun rises and sets, and life goes on. I'm going to try to relax and enjoy the rest of my time here. I'll be back soon.

A break

My brother passed away suddenly last night. Tragic circumstances mean I'm taking some time away from blogging because my 'real life' needs me 100% right now. I'll be back when I get things sorted out.

He's really wow!

I bought Ibrahim a kids dart board to see how he'd like it. It's the kind that has magnets instead of needle sharp darts. Ibrahim has taken to darts like a fish to water! He's good... really good... it's actually kind of scary even. I'm going to have to get him a real dart board and darts and let him loose.

What is this?

I noticed this new building in Tripoli, near Alhani. When I asked what it was, my kids said it's got signs for four new educational television stations on it. Hmmm.... call me pessimistic if you want... but has education in Libya improved so much that we want to flout it on TV?

Can anyone fill me please?

A new toy!

I found a new search tool from Google that will let you search all kinds of information as a timeline. You can search all kinds of things; news, art, music, blogs, magazines and all kinds of other stuff. I especially like the way it displays the search results - you can see all the news in the window and then easily slide backwards or forwards in time. Very nice!

Choosing

There's an argument looming in the near future. We're going to choose the colour of the paint for the outside of the house today.... hopefully... I wish that man would get the crazy notions out of his head and just listen to me from the beginning... but no, that would be way too easy. We'll have to argue about it first. He mentioned something yesterday about liking chocolate brown... he must be insane .... sigh...
