Hotel has gun post out the front covered in a camo-net. No where to visit, no beer, no women.

I did see some eyebrow action yesterday though and it gave me a chubber.

Stuck out here for another 8 days.

SA sucks. :(

Off to Bahrain tomorrow night for a session on the beer and a beach party. Next time it'll be a flight to Dubai, indeed...!

Man I want the kind of jobs that let me travel. Sure SA might not be the place to travel to, but you have stories to tell.

Where are you? I am guessing either Khobar, Dammam or Jubail.

UAE is one of the highest per capita places in the world, IIRC correctly, due to oil mostly.

And also, Saudi Arabia probably has the least traffic problems of any country. After all, women can't drive. :)

What? No middle east apologists here yet to say how you're a cultural bigot and you're not appreciating the country for what it has to offer?!

I agree, but then most of the middle east is a cesspool of utter crap. Basically all it's good for is oil.

My brother is in dubai and likes it enough, though they're still ass-backwards compared to the west (or the progressive east, like japan), especially in things like how they treat women.

Its per capita income is $25k, which is pretty decent. Its literacy is pretty atrocious, however, at only 78% for the population. Any country in the west would be in the high 90's.

If you're a muslim man in SA i think life is pretty good considering all the money they get from oil.

Rent the Wizard of OZ movie.

Watch the end very carefully.

The good witch has some great advice.

dude go find a buddy, and hit the damn dunes there is nothing like it. Zooming in a sand buggy off those dunes is wicked fun.
