the weekend

hala wore glasses. it was one of those buddy holly-like frames, big and black, and not really doing anything to highlight hala's pretty eyes.

then she was on inside the middle east. the highlight of which was when hala was on that very bumpy boat ride. hala looked like she was having fun. and we all love hala when she's having fun.

stayed up (and out) late last night (with friends, one of whom was having a minor emotional catastrophe), and when i got home your world today was on. i didn't see hala, but jim clancy was there.
jim clancy is a talking head.
okay, now i'm just incurring the wrath of jim clancy fans out there (yes, all ten of them). kidding. okay, jim clancy's reporting does nothing for me, and maybe i just miss hala with questy. (by the way, yes, i am writing this as a reaction to a remark on the forum, and i have to acknowledge it, because, well, he or she's reading this blog. cheers, buddy.) but, fine. jim can't be completely lacking in personality, because he can be placed in a co-anchor position.
i love shihab (rattansi), but i don't see him on your world today with a co-anchor.

point is, hala rocks, the rest of the world is just for us to play with.

"it's ironic, to want equal rights for women and yet have a world women's day just to be reminded of it." - Hala
