Pretty much this for me as well. Sorry to hear about this FR.  T's and P's go out to you and Mrs. Rex.

Also, love the name "Prince Rex," since it basically means "Prince King".  Sounds elite (albeit somewhat oxymoron-ish).  Kinda like "God King" except not quite so celestial and crap

Thanks for the kind words from many of you. Also, my second name choice was "Marcher Lord of the Horizon".

When things calm down a little here, I'll try and grab some pics of the new graffiti at the embassy. Things got really crazy really fast last night. Around 4:30, I had to wade through about 100 chanting protestors outside the main gate. But since there's a permanent (and relatively peaceful) protest for the blind sheik set up there, it was unnerving but not unsettling. But when we rounded the corner, we could hear a much larger (and seemingly angrier) group approaching. We weaved around Tahrir to avoid them, only running into a few pockets and just using basic blend methods to reach the metro. It got really creepy there, since while we were underground, a train full of more showed up. Don't think they were actually bigger, but with the echoes and enclosed space, they were definitely more intimidating. Had to avoid one of our usual routes altogether because of another group carrying Molotov cocktails. Like I said on twitter, these appeared to be mostly 16-22 year olds and mostly the "ultras"--the rather militant group of fans that support the local soccer team who gained renown for being at the front lines of the deadliest clashes with the police (and are responsible for most of the revo graffiti). Interestingly, in the days before the revolution, they also skirted "public congregation" bans by using soccer matches to start chants against the Mubarak regime (basically, they are an Internet fanbase that makes goEMAW look like a group of reasonable diplomats and/or giant pussies).

Also, Mrs Rex is pissed that security is forcing all employees in her office to commute to work together in one of the armored plated vans this morning: "let's see...I could travel slowly in an enormous white vehicle with dip tags filled with cringing white Americans, or I could put a scarf on my head."

Last night her boss said "we could have some problems here" as one of the mobs were passing and Mrs Rex was all "What do you mean by "we", paleface?"

Goddamn if that Lebanese survival instinct isn't sexy as hell.

if it really hits the fan over there i  have 2 pro tips-
a) grow a beard
b) wear a head scarf and body covering thing and pretend you're a chick when you go out into the streets

is it hard to get good guns over there?

Yeah, what are the conceal carry laws over there? You may want to protect yourself the next time you encounter an angry mob.
