My question is....could you still get arrested and deported if you went from Baracuda to Dubai on the emirates road route...(taking the SHARJAH ring road)

Man that horse died long, long, long ago...

Rolled over?

Still waiting to see the repair bill 8) Rolled over? Oh nothing so serious... just all the plastic bits decided they didn't like sand and leapt off the car. Not too much... but enough that I think the repair bill will be a couple of '000. You mean a Ford Escape if more than a couple of '000 new :sh...

Wondering whether Indians eat pork - well except for the pork-eating Christians Indians. You never see in on the menu and I am too lazy to look it up so I thought someone here might know.

Never did see curry pork...or pork byriani... but maybe...

Yea I eat. Another thing worth asking.. did u mean Indians or Hindu's if u meant Indians' its a conglomeration of ppl with diff cultures, diff religion, diff basis for religious notions.. So, though one may say a pork eating muslim is not muslim anymore.. i have indian muslim friends who eat pork o...

Well in general.. its very difficult to apply the generalization principles there.. however.. taking hindu's as the major populace of India, Indians are not big non-veg eaters. Especially those in the northern parts of India. Since south of India has always welcomed tourers,wanderers, businessmen f...

Yeah but once you put all the curry spicies etc. you could have snake/rat/pebble curry accompanied by heaps of basmati rice and other delicious things.

whoa that was cool (Well, I'm easily impressed).

Will be there first week in January.

Any recommendations... Not a dump...but not an overpriced crappy place either (I can do that on business trips).

Thanks for the replies. Actually the salary is a little less than the "indian" guy who works there now so yes I guess it is an "indian" salary. I will ask for more then. by the way what is DP? or TP? Ask for more don't let the bastards discriminate against you (assuming you are ...

What a farse

Seeing that you have already booked your hotel. Anyway next time, try the Ascott in Sathorn, Banyan Tree, Metropolitan Hotel Thanks, you're a Doll! We booked 2 nights at the Banyan but checked out the Ascott and Metropolitan on your suggestion. The metropolitan looks like it would be cooled. We als...

25 for me - not including arniegang, sage or smartd.

Man oh man, does anyone do historical/cultural or non-message things in Bangkok (I recognize the name does not help it but...)

Aside from the perennial temple, just walk around and blend in with the locals. Those are the only cultural things I can think of. And yes, watch a kickboxing match. Whatever you do, stay away from the floating market! And why is that? It is in all guide books. Nothing there, rip-off, dirty (seems ...

I thought it was what it is according the guide books also. I went there early last year. You get on the boat and you go around with nothing to see and buy but souvenirs. Soon you'll feel like being detained on the boat and you are "forced" to stop on every souvenir shop along the way, wh...

I hate polls, so won't set one up even though this is a great question to ask. I think that the combination of sanctions, invasion and occupation has led to more Iraqi misery than under the Saddam era. Am I wrong to think more Iraqis have suffered under US-led intervention? I'm a simple type of guy...

MOST of the taxis don't stop for brown people, black people, women in abayas, Filipinos, locals, Arabs and people living in traffic-heavy areas. Whatever minority they do pick up will tell you they have no problems getting a taxi here. I dunno maybe because they expect big tips from them? Yeah, the...

All kidding aside, you are worth 200,000 Dirhams dead in the UAE. That is, by law, the "price" or "blood money" if you negligently kill someon. So I say, dry carefully and get life insurance.
