if you walk in public areas i’m sure you spotted one of those 2 scenarios… First and foremost the maid abuse issue. I am against this whole system of bringing foreign people to work in such unfair conditions, let alone making her follow Mr. and Daughter while they jog, so that when they are thirsty the water is right behind them. Second, I really laugh at the way some women dress when they walk or jog in public places. I mean, easy on the sex-appeal! Anyway, after all, walking is a way of self expression and each person’s interpretation is only subjective!

you forgot lots and lots…
-The “out of shape” that want go there for sports, but end up stopping at every rolling food thingie, from turmus, to hotdogs.
-The middle age crisis guy, who at 40something remembered that he hadn’t worked out since he was 15, and he can’t see his penis anymore.But he still try to squeeze in those 70′s shorts that belonged to him when 15…
-The super extra fit people who deliberately wear tank tops to show off their muscles. They never bring towels, to wipe their face they use their shirt , in doing so “accidentally” showing off their ABS.
-The non walkers who sit in the car eating turmus while making fun of the walkers/runners.
-The couples who are too busy rocking the car to notice that its already day light/ not dark enough to do that…
-The old fishermen who look at the others and remember their youths.
-the kids on bicycles/rollers who almost trip everyone.
-the dogs who like barking at walkers.
those are a few… too lazy to write more

THANK YOU for this post! I live in the US but I visit Lebanon as much as I can being that I have a lot of family there & I’m so angry over the treatment of foreign workers. I love your blog!
