And then now you get Bush who was losing a war and was still re-elected. Sometimes I wonder how the American people think when they elect someone!

I had just joined an all English school. I spent most of the time with one of Carter's aides and his son who shared my fondness for computers, but beyond that, the conversation in the photo went something like this: Hello Mr. President. May I have your autograph. I do remember he seemed like a genuinely nice guy. He managed to bring Sadat and Rabin together in camp david whereas Bill Clinton failed to help Barak and Arafat reach an agreement. Too bad he only did one term as president, but so far I think he's been the best ex-president. Well it wasn’t just age, my English wasn’t so great back then. I had just joined an all English school.

Until then, the return of the spartan diet is at hand! Bannana split/barge/boat/dingy/battlehsip rocks, but I just wish I could get Ben&Jerry's Chunky Monkey ice cream here. Yes, that picture is lovely, the best thing is that they still love each other so much even nearly 50 years later. Khaled, yes foooooooooooooood. Just watch the circumference of your waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiist :) Noura, yeah I was, and I lost 8Kg on my Spartan diet, it’s the post-diet phase that I have to work on!

Why ? It wasn't planned. He was in town, my dad sent him an invitation. He accepted. I didn't really ask. I remember that autograph book he is signing was bought especially for the occasion, although I lost it. Did I mention the food was great. Now I really do remember the food :) 7aki, our house, Ramallah. Why ? It wasn’t planned. He was in town, my dad sent him an invitation. He accepted. I didn’t really ask.

That's just my nickname for it. I had much stranger outfits as a kid. I figure since parents took so much trouble to raise their kids they can at least dress them up funny for entertainment :) The goat outfit! That’s just my nickname for it.
