#1 Rains? In Soddy Ah-Rabies?

Though, some H2SO4 rain would be nice for a change. ;-)

#11 It would be amusing if the text is the original version, not the modified version now imposed by the Saudis on all who come for the Haj. We've seen articles here about the thousands of Korans/Qurans/Qur'ans carried by hajjis that are destroyed every year because they contain illustrations or passages the Wahhabis have decided are unacceptable.

#13 Just think, some day some of our military youths will be shooting 50 cal holes in it. And a future president may demand; Mister Abdul-a-dulha-dulhabulha, tear down that quran.

#14 It does rain in Arabia. Not often, but... Mr. Wife had a colleague they called the Rain Godd. Every time he went over there, it would rain. We're talking soil so dry that nothing was absorbed, a foot or more of water running in the streets. And all the production chemicals were stored in the open next to the production area -- either rained upon from above or soaked from below.
