The last sunset

No, I’m not dying tomorrow, but I thought of marking the day before June 7th with a photo, the last sunset before the 2009 elections.

It is the end. The end of the stressful discussions between the colleagues at work, the end of the expensive advertisement campaigns, the end of Marcel Ghanem’s daily talk show “Parliament 2009”, the end of the ping pong games between Aoun and Murr, the end of the irritating convoys, w heik…

Anyway, careful to whom you will be voting tomorrow, and remember that you can vote a white paper if none of the candidates meet your standards.

    Love the pic, and the thought! I watched the sunset last evening from my home, but didn’t think about it positively this way 🙂 Let’s hope the end of election day will really be the end of election tensions!

    Yax and Rami if you guys still wodering about the white votes amount, there were 11.000. If those were to rally somewhere in downtown Beirut alot of messages could be drawn from that. I would call them white voter movement or the white revolution if they can gather more…
