I took this picture with my Iphone yesterday: I saw him on some Ramadan program on NBN (Nabih Birri network from Lebanon). What aroused my interest and caught my attention--me being the religious head gear aficionado--was his turban: I have never seen such a big and full turban on a cleric before. It looks like those 1960s hairdryers that women used to place their heads in for an hour at hair salons. And what is inside the turban because it looks stuffed. I am told that his name is `Abdul-Latif Birri from Dearborn and relatives of his are Facebook friends and some were mightily offended. Sunday, July 14, 2013
