Road Trip + WHne Bush Came to Town + Strike cont'd + Crazy Story


Me in Caesaria...my favourite place in ISrael....I went on a Road trip with Debbie...it was so cool to drive in ISrael, I miss it so much...driving is a great time to really clear your thoughts and think, I forgot how much I actually need time to think...it sounds strange, but I think that is why I liek to fly as well, once you are on a plane you have nothing on your list of things to do, no one calling you and you can just....
For every hour that Bush is in Israel it costs the country $25000. 1/3 of Israel's police are in Jerusalem at the moment, because he is here at the King David, streets are closed people can't get to work, work has been cancelled for anyone who lives in the vicinity of the President and Prime Ministers house....
The strike continues....there was meant to be a meeting but it got cancelled becasue of Bush's visit...last chance to save the semester is a meeting this Sat night...whatever...I am so over it...
I walked into a bank this week, and there was a man lying on the floor with about 5 paramedics around him, trying to revive him, he is turning a shade of blue and they are shaking him, they are vigourously pumping life into him and his colour doesn't change. His Philipino stands at the side a bit distraught...
Everyone else continues on business as usual...I continue on business as usual. I sit there waiting for my turn. One of those things that you can't help but stare at, so you stare and that some how helps.
