Egyptian bloggers will hold a "wedding party" in Talaat Harb Sq., Friday 4 May, 6pm, to celebrate the marriage of our future president Gamal Mubarak to the lovely Khadiga, which will be held simultaneously in Sharm el-Sheikh.

The bloggers' protest party will be held under the slogan: "Heyya ah! Baladna La!" (basically: Go and marry her, but don't marry our country!"

First there was Branniffer. Then there was Tomkat and Brangelina. Now there's... Gamdiga? Jimmga? Digmal? Gaga?

I'll only turn up to the Kifaya thing if my invitation to the real thing doesn't come. It should have come by now. Must ask bawwab if he's seen it. Perhaps it was lost in the post...

Um... I don't think "marry" is the verb they're implying.
