#2 Lol! They're in Manama, Bahrain, fer crying out loud! That's where we went for a breath of freedom. Page 3 girls. Real restaurants. Movie theaters with real first-run movies. Actual sorta normal people walking around being sorta normal. Starbucks with available chairs. Malls with music stores where the labels aren't blackened with Magic Markers cuz there was a woman's likeness on it. Same for magazines - oh, I already mention the Page 3 girls, sorry. Wymyn driving cars! A whole 'nuther WORLD!

It was frickin' HEAVEN compared to SaoodiLand.

These crybaby wimps make me laugh, lol. See? I told you, lol. :-)
