Legendary Mime Marcel Marceau had passed away in France

To tell you the truth when I was child I used to be scared from he Mime actors because of their white face , black eyeliners and red lipstick since I can't deny that I also loved to imitate as a child the cage move thanks to Ahmed Nabil performance in the national TV

More information about him is here in CNN and I advice you to see this wonderful archive clip from BBC News in Youtube ,unfortunately they are not allowing the videos of the BBC to be embedded in Websites by the request of the BBC as they know the videos will be downloaded and distributed over the Internet

Marcel seemed to be a great artist and may he RIP still the mime actors are creepy

The only time I overcome my fear from them is when I played No One lives forever 2 and I was faced by a gang of mime hitmen and I had to kill them all !!

Anyhow I can't deny that it is a very fine art that unfortunately it is not respected as it should in the world ,the Mime actors in many countries are regarded as beggars

In Egypt I think we have only one famous mime actor Mr.Ahmed Nabil whom I mentioned before and I believe that he is very sad for the death of Marceau as he used to act Marceau 's character Bip

I found this blog by accident ,a specialized blog for Egyptology and all things related to Ancient Egypt with exentive coverage of what ever is published in the media

It is very interesting and full of information ,it is highly recommended to be visited :)

Ramadan Kareem to all my dear friends , the grand Mufti of the Egyptian state has just announced that Ramadan will start in Egypt on next Thursday 13/9/2007

Happy Ramadan to all Muslims

Ok this reminds me with the "Last Samurai"

All this time I thought that we only depended on the French expertise in the Egyptian army in the 19 century ,but I turned to be wrong

We depended on American expertise too

In the time of Khedive Ismail "This man seemed had great ambitions for Egypt but could not do it right as his  grand father late Mohamed Ali Pasha

Now the American generals and officers Ismail brought to Egypt helped us in discovering Africa and river Nile , already real Egyptian historians know that Egyptian Army discovered lake Victoria before the British and it was even called lake Ismail !!

Americans in the Egyptian Army

Here  this is the website ,read it ,you will find very interesting historical facts

This week by the way there was a lecture some where about this

I believe this can be considered the first brick in the Egyptian - American relationship
