[kj] OT: Boycott the UAE

[ade]

It takes a lot of toughness & sacrifice to keep the image of a 'high-class'
money-pit/tourist trap intact. Some have to pay the price of course - such
is life.

I wonder who chose the colour scheme?

Take a good whiff while you're at the pump, the stuff from UAE has a
distinct aroma, quite heady after a few minutes. If you partake for long
enough you'll get a chauffeured trip to FREE accomodation where you can
mingle with other connoisseurs ;)

Would be a lot easier boycotting the financial services sector and tourism
industry of UAE methinks. Perhaps we could bust their political
representatives when they arrive at the airport for possessing
objectionable signals and wiring in their nervous systems...what's more
ridiculous, that, or busting someone for 4 years for being a bit messy
eating a bread roll?!
