Driving

I really want to get a camera that I can attach to my helmet somehow. driving in lebanon, can be quite an adventure. actually, I think that in most Mediterranean countries people don't drive very well because they're too busy looking at the sea. but lebanon, it's different. of course i think everything in this country is the way it is because of the civil war, and driving is certainly no exception. people do not stop, slow down, give right away, USE TURN SIGNALS (which i didnt think was a big deal in the states to make turns without them, but here where nearly everyone loves to cut across at least two or more lanes of traffic to turn they could really be helpful) it can all make one extremely tense. for me as a foreigner, i forget about the ideologies of the political parties, and I usually just check whichever car pisses me off that day for any signs of their political affiliation and for the rest of the day promise to wage a war against everyone who supports that party. (There are a few dozen active political parties here, so in a week or busy day I might wage war against all of Lebanon.) I'm sure that if people started to work together more when driving, then everyone could focus their energy not against each other but rather against something important like the US warships off the Lebanese coast.
