"Top blog/Renato Obeid's World/Today's pick: This rambling weblog is worth reading not so much for its satirical posts but more for its insight into the minutiae of life in Lebanon, including the etiquette of road accidents and how to hire a taxi.”

Further proof that fast food is bad for you – a McDonald's restaurant on the outskirts of Beirut was bombed yesterday afternoon injuring five people.
Police later found a car laden with explosives in the car park which had failed to go off due to a defective detonator.
American fast food franchises in Lebanon are guarded by private security personnel, police and soldiers.
There's a security system after my own heart!
Bugger all the other vital installations – secure Macca's!
Their destruction would mean famine for the likes of me.
