THINGS ABOUT EGYPT ...

that i know.

-there was that prince of egypt movie which was about moses' time in egypt

-then there are the pyramids in egypt that everyone wants to tour

-then of course there was ancient egypt and there was the spinx and there were the pharaohs

-speaking of which, cleopatra was egyptian

-one of my fave asterix comics is asterix and cleopatra where he, obelix, getafix and dogmatix go to ancient egypt and end up drinking lots of magic potion

-there was the movie "the mummy" which was set in egypt and "the mummy II" which was also set in egypt

looking back on my list i realise that i really do not know that much about egypt. i really need to get there and add intelligent and useful things i know about egypt to my list that i will not cringe when i look at!


Google bombing for Alaa
Join the campaign today

Link the word Egypt back to the Free Alaa! site.

“The hope is that the number of links will eventually mean someone entering the term Egypt in a search engine will arrive at the Free Alaa! site rather than a tourism brochure or something similar. It’s a way of publicising both Alaa’s detention and that of the more than 40 others held after peaceful protests”.

You forgot that you know about the nile.
Because I'm telling you, you now know that the Egyptian swim team is ho-ho-hot!
You know that the capital city of Egypt is Cairo.
You just haven't put everything you know down :D
P.S how does that bleach on shirts work again?

As for freeing Alaa. Because of him, we know more about the political plight of Egpytians.
