Happy New Year

I can't believe it's 2006 already. It feels strange just looking at the figure. Let's begin this new year on a lighter note. This was a great article written in the Sunday Times about the head of Egypt's "Supreme Council of Antiquities", Mr. Zahi Hawass.

If the name does not ring a bell, just think of the Egyptian Indiana Jones you have probably seen on the Discovery or National Geographic channels, in almost every program they ever aired about ancient Egypt. In my opinion, this not-so-attentive guardian of our antiquities needs to go even before our minister of interior - field marshal of new year's battle of helpless refugees.

The blog just hit 100 page views with the new year:-) Kind of pathetic but it's a start...can any of the (few) readers participate and share their opinions? Thanks.
