... Arabic. He didn't want me to pay so I did anyway. With the traffic and the fact that we missed the road made me late but Yousof waited. We had to take a metered taxi because my new friend thought that it was better... too much money was exchanged as the cabby drove around in a roundabout fashion.

had a use but it kind of looked like the Puyallup fairgrounds post
fair. And over a sort of impromptu dump I saw the wall. THE wall. Of
Old Sana'a. I was so unbelievably excited. The interior of those
walls was what I had come for. Not for Arabic nor for my Evergreen
