Green Street was not the best accommodations available in town but was the recommended stopping place for anyone who cared to help the community live. The small room provided for minimal comforts... A bed and washing facilities; he could eat at his cousins restaurant and other businesses of other members of the community. He preferred to keep his money circulated among friends, family and his own Levantine community. It was hard to do with the posh Marriott, Dearborn Inn and Hampton Inn further into town, but he believed in supporting his fellow businessmen and family. He felt better for his conscience. The woman who cleaned at the Green Street boarding house kept it fairly clean for the building it was, and the wash was regular, it gave her a regular income. It kept him close to those he knew and out of the homes of his family, but was good to see them... to visit with them after so many years after their departure to America. They often boasted of success with business and family. The entire community attitude was strong in their collective efforts to maintain a sound religious base here and to keep the lines of communication open and current with concerns at home. The Community Clergy was constant and came recommended by not only his own cousins but by most of the community, as a sound-minded conscientious man. A good man. Conversations with the clergy and following up on referrals made from various community members, he decided to attempt to find replacements for his print and bindery shop back at home. With that, he made his plans to locate the... Collator and folding machines needed to replace those damaged in a recent bombing. One earlier visit to these same cousins, Mahmoud and Majid, had felt like home without its many bracing customs. It was less restrictive for the American insurgence of life. They lived in their respective chosen places, Mahmoud in West Bloomfield ...far to the north, and Majid here in the community, not far from the boarding house. It was not proper to stay with them in the presence of their women ...for custom of moral existence. It would do to keep peace in the household and avoid all instance for doubt. He chose to stay at the Green Street. Their women covered and most other details were like home except that the watchers were wrapped not in the entity of an assigned group but in the individual for his or her own strength in personal privacy. At home there were "police" for everything and anything of conscious to mankind. They were called the WATCHERS. There were no watchers in the cousins' American community... no authentic personal behavior police. His own home, still in Northern Lebanon's suburbs of Beirut, boasted traditional Islamic practices. Those at home were expected to be honest of their own accord, in relationships, business and persuasion. The customs of freedom are usually what kills mankind. Too much freedom brings slaggard morals in any man or woman. As he sat in his cousin's restaurant now, waiting for the plate ordered, Mahmoud told him of the possibility for business success in America. "I haf thees restoor-rant...it is goot business, and I have the printing there, zee Tech-No... also goot business. Both are goot money to my family. My wife and zee children eat good meals, have goot schools and they are with people who no zem. You shoult join me with jour business... here and there, we will do goot." A restaurant employee approached him from behind the booth to ask his opinion on food preparation for this cousin. Mahmoud excused himself and followed the man back into the kitchen area. Ali was intent upon bringing the equipment back up to date. It would be replaced but he would have to work within the budget. His travels had brought him to the United States as an afterthought. The better machines had always been of German design but the contention in Germany was to deal with its own. In the Americas there were better negotiators for used and new equipment from any background. He could find the German manufactured Heidlburg equipment here, or so he had been told. He simply needed a guide. There had also come the suggestion of a franchise from a prior acquaintance, a younger man hoping for the ways of the coming generation. Zgheib had suggested he buy a franchise with his money instead of investing in the heavy equipment like that he already had. "Tomorrow will be different. Eet will not use the heavy things Ali, I would think ahead andt ghet more updated computerized equipment. Zhe franchise company will provide eet." He had seen Zgheib only last night at the community center. Since his coming here to the Americas, Mo seemed to have changed for the release of pressure. Back at home there had been the pressure of marriage. Marriage to a girl that was obviously not one he would have chosen for himself. Seeing him here in America, Ali was certain that the weight had been removed by his escape from the woman. This one, at thirty years of age, was a hopeless romantic. He wanted to marry for love. At his age, Ali was already working on establishing a trade and business. It was a family trait. He had already been in the construction trades for the repair of his own community back at home and for building new large concrete houses. He had gone into business with another, Abu, in printing newspapers and the holy book... which he personally maintained contracts for orders and delivery; two mandated lines of media in their own world. Because of his choice of business, he was well respected by many of the leaders of many Arabic-speaking countries and in his own region and abroad. He traveled frequently establishing accounts and verifying customer satisfaction with their product, and at times to establish new contacts. Mahmoud returned from the kitchen with a plate of appetizers, "You will make it to your appointment, Ali, zhe food is about here now." He quickly remembered his suggestion of joining his own printing business with his cousin's, "...and didt jhou think about tzhe business?" He sat down, placing the heavily garnished plate before his cousin. It was rare for visitors other than his wife's or his own siblings or parents to come from overseas. One uncle... his wife's father, was a constant intrusion to his household. Sayed often appeared from his own usual residence in England, for interspersed short term trips which usually found him at the podium at the community center. On some of these trips, a friend of the family or other family member would accompany him. Ali came alone claiming to need equipment for the business back in Beirut. "I haf ...how you say, think about it." Mahmoud sat up and leaned toward his cousin in anticipation as Ali continued, "Jhes, I haf think about it. I think a leetle morre;" and smiled back in jest."...Where ees my food?"
