" On Facebook, more than 85,000 people have pledged to attend a nationwide antigovernment protest planned for Tuesday, Jan. 25, in Egypt. It's an effort that has so far been facilitated almost entirely online, and if even half that many people show up, it will be a historic day for Egyptian political activism under the Mubarak regime ."

Remember the post from a long time ago in which you claimed you wore a bikini to the banks of the Suez canal and had lunch with an Egyptian family?

No, when I arrived in Egypt to work as a babysitter (for children only!!!!!) I had the first Friday off. I didn't stay on the hotel beach (Suez) and explored by myself the lonely beach next to it. I spent the whole afternoon there and felt like Robinson Crusoe. I never saw in my whole life (and I was only 20 years old) palms before and the color of the water was just so amazing. I thought I was really dreaming - well I got a bad sunburn too.
Anyway I saw Egyptian children w/ their mothers coming up to me and they were looking for shells. So I started to try to communicate w/ them but that didn't work. I just helped them finding more shells on the shore. One woman ask me w/ hand sign if I would like to eat something. I agreed and we went up to the field. Well another woman put me a big cover over my body since I was still dressed as a "dumb stupid" tourist in a bikini. Well the women brought me than couple of pillows and more covers and ask me to sit down w/ them. Boy I was sweating in the heat but they really treated me like a queen. The husbands came then and we all sat together. You know they did fresh bread in this little oven (?) and gave me also fresh milk (I probably shouldn't have drunken that but I couldn't reject since they were all so friendly; thanks God I didn't develop any problems later on either). Anyhow this village people were so so nice to me and this was one of the first great experiences I had when I arrived in Egypt.
Later on I had so many other nice encounters w/ the hospitality and generosity of Egyptians as I stayed in Cairo for couple of years. If you come as a guest they treat you like a guest. They don't act stiff and reserved even if there are communication problems. They treat you like you belong to the family but actually you are there for the first time. I miss that where I live....
Yes I love it. I remembered the post and Tigerweed and inc. stated it didn't exist.
well thats time well spent, I got 7 hours of sleep and ready for work; plus I found my nugget in the rough.

She has made repetitive and ongoing claims she cannot back up.
she lies about her past, present and everything in between. Then she uses these falsehoods to attempt to win arguements.
Tigerweed is the main username to drive off Egyptians living in Egypt. Mainly because she knows Egypt better than Egyptians living in Egypt.
Several had emailed me in the past alerting me to various frauds before they logged off ES for good.
It would be nice to have more actual Egyptians than frauds on ES.

I couldn't find the facebook page. I copy/pasted the name, so either I somehow did it wrong or the page has been taken down?

Young and old are taking to the streets all over Egypt. Even the Bedhouin are at it in El Arish. Egypt is on fire. The streets belong to the people. There's talk of 10s of thousands. The police can do nothing. People are breaking through police lines. I'm in England. But if I were in Cairo, I'd be making my way gingerly towards Tahrir Square. What could anyone do?
Sorry to butt in on this thread all of a sudden. Do carry on.

I get sound on that but just a picture, no live video. Maybe it's too busy or my connection is bad?

Yes. Things now turning nasty: water-canon, clubs, tear gas, leaders arrested, beaten, cameras and phones confiscated etc. All livestreaming appears to have gone dead.

Full scale riot in Tahrir Square. Police not in control. Crowd retaliates: rocks thrown at police. Smoke bombs returned.
