I think I know where you must work!

We have two campuses. One is mostly for the undergrads near the Charles River and the other is the Med Campus which is in the South End. That's the campus I work at and although they're trying to clean it up the bulk of the killings in the news in Boston are right in that area.



hahaha


Actually that's not even the half of it since the NEIDL will be practically across the street from my office. (for those who don't know...that's a site the Homeland Security is building where they will be housing the most lethal viruses on earth. )

I traveled to Egypt by myself twice and was perfectly safe both times. Sure, there have been a couple bombings in tourist locations, but my husband says they were not really targeting anyone in particular. Crime rate is very low in Egypt. You are more likely to have something happen to you in the U.S than in Egypt.

I don't think there is anywhere you can go that is safe anymore. It's open season on the world, unfortunatly anything can happen anytime, anywhere.

I used to think Jordan was safe too, 3 weeks after I left there were hotel bombings.

Thats what he said. I assured him that I would wear the hijab but he said that they aren't targeting Americans or Europeans, but just whoever. I think he is just extremely cautious and very protective. I hope someday he feels more comfortable going there, I have always wanted to go there since I was young. I seriously considered archiology for a career because of my fascination with Egypt, but I figured everything to be discovered there probably already has been.

I remember when they had the King Tut tomb and findings at our local University. It was like I died and gone to heaven.

My husband doesn't understand my fascination with these things, but I think he is used to having ancient sites so easily accessable. We just don't have that here other than Native American ruins, which I don't find nearly as interesting.
