more protests, and a call for contribution

The Iron Grip continues. May this internal revolution continue. Funny how the US Government focuses all its energy on revolutionizing countries that aren't necessarily ready, yet here Egyptian people struggle for freedom. I would propose we help the people already fighting to create their own change.

And also, let this be a call for contributions. Should you wish to contribute to this community, email mixmasterAT nomadlife DOT org

If I get one response, first round's on me.

Back in the Game

Well, I'm going to give the old college try to keep this thing going with the occasional relevant tidbit of info in the World of Egypt.
They recently arrested a blogger for "insulting the president." You can follow more of the story here. What's a bit amazing is they were able to organize a protest in DC around the issue. In other news, emergency law was extended for another two years (so much for Mubarak's campaign claims) and the DNP continues to fuck the country in the ass.

Tomorrow will be a day for uplifting news.
