"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.”

ROLL OUT THE BARREL - pork-barreling in some areas of Lebanon means merely cleaning the streets Elections in this region might not be until next Sunday but hitherto unseen street cleaners have begun collecting the garbage… and collecting votes. Just looking out the window here, I can see five of them on the one stretch of street picking up and sweeping.
