Carl of Arabia!


Ok, so now I know what you are thinking....what the heck could I have in common with the epic character (and real life counterpart) of one of the all time great cinematic films (and probably the record for longest film ever too!). Well as of yet, not much. While I have always longed to roam the land fighting for freedom and philosophizing about the meaning of life, I just have not gotten around to it yet.

What I am about to begin though is taking Arabic here at Johns Hopkins SAIS! In addition it has been common for Arabic students to spend their summer inbetween their two years in a Arabic speaking country. So perhaps in time I will have a few charectorists similar to the all time film great.
