Shooting an Ad in Baalbek - Summer of 2007Posted by finkployd in
Summer of 2007
So there I was, minding my own business in Baalbek (a quick stopover during a daylong road trip), when I'm approached by this bushy haired girl in red:
Girl in Red: Monsieur, mamnou3 el tosweer. Fink: Leish? Girl in Red: 3am min sawwir di3aye confidentiel. Fink: 3anjad? Girl in Red: Eh, mamnou3 el tesweer. Fink: Oooof, leish ista2jarto Baalbek lal nhar? Girl in Red: Non monsieur, bas hon 3am nsawwir, fa mamnou3 inta tekhoud souwar. Fink: Yalla, natrik, jebeele el darakeh. Girl in Red: Non monsieur, bas kirmele ma tsawwir. Fink: Eh ok, kirmelik rah sawwir, hayda public space wou rah ydal public space.  tags: lebanese, dabke, advertisement, baalbek, bekaa, beirut, lebanon, photography, picture, dancing -finkployd- the Media in Baalbek

Dining by Candlelight - Summer of 2007Posted by finkployd in
Summer of 2007
Where else in the world would a formal dinner - complete with VIP guests and catered food - survive a power outage that requires dining by candlelight?
We are by far the most resilient people, The Lebanese.  tags: dining, candlelight, dinner, power outage, summer of 2007, lebanon, lebanese, beirut, vip, formal, resilient, electricity, candle -finkployd- Lebanese Resilience on Blogging Beirut

Dirty South: This Sunday @ La Voile Bleue - Summer of 2007Posted by finkployd in
Summer of 2007
So I'm covering - ad-hocly [is that even a word?] - an Beach Party at La Voile Bleue this Sunday.
It's meant to be a blast, and for those who might also be interested in the BEACH, it's one of the cleanest within reach (was not affected by oil spill of last summer - sells well eh?). I'll be toting a bigass camera, and a junior regulation pigskin football. Anyone up for a game of rugby?
