kozmo-like service makes it in cairo

Cairo's online delivery service is a thousand times more advanced than Washington's - as in Cairo has one and DC doesn't. This service puts DCMenus to shame. Place your order at most Cairo restaurants with otlob, they call to confirm, and 30 minutes later a snazzy motor-scooter shows up at your door. Tonights order left much to be desired, but how good is Pizza Hut in the States anyway? Wait, ask Amer.

An aside: I'm connected with a painfully slow 34k dial up connection, which makes me wonder how much time I had on my hands when I started in '95 with aol's 14k. Reluctant to deal with Egyptian tech services, I'm stickin'. But I met get DSL for this new site dedicated to funny shit.
