Beirut's post-modern civil war

What a strange picture on the NYT's site today:

Clearly there are some guys -- one dressed in a bandana -- taking shelter behind concrete barriers. But what's that guy in the black t-shirt doing -- relaxing on a couch? They look like they're doing performance art.

It's cloudly and cold today in San Francisco, breaking a string of sunny, warm days that became increasingly smoggy. Perhaps this weak frontal system will clear out the shmutz.

I'm working at home, because I have to go to Oakland tonight. But dig all the literary events in the city tonight that I posted at Metblog. I should be able to catch the last one.
