from left to right:
the guy in the Brasil t-shirt: Sameh, graphic designer, a very talented person and a hilariously funny character.. you can spend 10 minutes laughing at what he is saying and then discover he is making fun of YOU! Also an ex-tennis player which makes him a very good person :)
the sleepy guy with the (inapparent here) ponytail: Ahmed Mahfouz, i dont really know what his actual job is.. he works a lot, i know that far.. and he also spends his day smoking and drinking _strong_ coffee... a nice character.. you can trust him but, more often than not, he'll tell you what you dont want to hear.. a true advice ;)
the guy in black behind Mahfouz: Hussam.. Mahfouz calls him Wolverine.. a very nice and friendly guy but i didnt get to know him awi..
the pretending-to-be-shy-but-indeed-very-cool girl in red: Millania.. weird name and its weirder when she tries to explain it :) She was on the cover of Business Today in May's issue that featured ITWorx as "the most exciting company in Egypt" and ever since she is living the role of a supermodel superstar ;) Mill is a cool one.. she seemed too "girlie" but turned out to be really funny and "day3a"
the big-grin-from-ear-to-ear as if there is no care in the world: ME!
Behind me in a green veil: Yasmine.. a.k.a. Zeww.. the Shikapores lady.. (Shikapores is a story to come).. she was one of the main reasons i came to ITWorx.. actually if it wasnt for her, i probably wouldnt have gotten to change careers.. she also has the coolest soft toy, Cinko! a very cool person indeed, always making me smile (or cry, or just wonder in silence :)) Very loyal and very "what you see is what you get" (WYSIWYG in text manipulation terms -an acronym from my past life as a software engineer!)
Beside Yasmine: Yaser (and not spelled Yasser).. her "singnificant other".. a very cool person to tease.. with very philosophical views about the world, including the cartoon "Monsters Inc." that turned out to be about globalization :) Sometimes a very good taste in music, he likes Souad Massi and some other favorites of mine..
in front of Yaser: Nevine Cookie, or just Cookies, or Cookies 'n Cream.. an IBM friend who thought i was way too weird when she first met me, then it turned out we had so so much in common... we used to go to Diwan's bookstore, spend our salary then almost beg our way back home :) if you get her in the mood, you'd be surprised what she's capable of becoming... a diamond in the rough :)
black Superman: Kareem Mosatafa... not a WYSIWYG at all!! you see a nice, friendly young man.. you get a sarcastic sharp sense of humor that really gets to your bone.. i only knew that from checking his own blog.
hmmmmmmm...... i now realized that Chris is not in the pic... after i carefully picked this one to include us all... weird! :)) very annoying actually... i will post another one now...

cool group :) i know chris, zeww and yaser (painful painful days, but i'll let yaser tell that story). nice to meet you all. so who are you gonna marry out of this lot?
well, yaser taken, Sameh taken and Chris the name says it all :) so that leaves Mahfouz, Kareem, and Hussam... let _them_ kill themselves over me.. ;)
