It has recently been brought to my attention that some folks thought I was talking about cities in the United States when I referred to Syria, Damascus, etc ... Honest mistake given that these are in fact not too far from some of the places I grew up ... Here is a short list of these (ironically) American cities that confused some of you >>
Damascus, Virginia
Damascus, Maryland
Syria, Virginia
Lebanon, Virginia
Jerusalem, Virginia
Alleppo, Pennsylvania
Palestine, Texas
Let me set the record straight (like The Street Called ... ) :
I meant SYRIA - the nation/region in Southwest Asia bordering Turkey, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, & occupied Palestine ... the capital of which is of course the great city of DAMASCUS, one of the longest continuously-inhabited cities on planet earth ... so nice, they named it once ...
