Frogger

Does anyone remember the beloved video game Frogger? Did you ever want to be that lil' froggy and hop from moving log to moving log risking your lil' green life? Well, if you ever wanna play real life Frogger, come to Cairo and try to cross a street. I believe the only time Egyptians feel real empowerment is driving in their lil' Daewoos, Hyundais, and Peugeots. They will try to run you over just for the sport of it. There's a hand gesture (if you can imagine an Italian saying "bellisimo" with the hand kiss action - its similar) pedestrians use that's supposed to mean "slow down i'm crossing", but to some drivers i swear it means "speed up and yell at me loudly". I learned the word "Jax" which means a**hole, taxis and pedestrians alike use that one a lot. (Un & John, another reason not to name your zygote "Jack".)
