Concord - some people argue that Iran is the more mature and civilised nation when comparing the US and Iran. We are talking here about how the nations act towards other countries - i.e. foreign relations / policy. The argument goes that Iran has not started any wars or attacked another country, ot...

Sunny and good visibility in the burbs (Marina/Media City/Palm)

Dude,

Napa valley aint worth it if you are only in SF for a couple of days.

Don't miss the sealions.

I was in my office when someone came in and told me about it. I looked out the window and could see the smoke. Managed to get home around 4 pm just to see the 3rd building collapse - 7 World Trade Center. My wife could not make it home and spent the night at friends - No one who was outside could go...

Ok, so whats the end of the story.. Did Fays manage to get the stuff that he badly needs..? or is he still on the hunt? anxiously waiting to get to know the woeful plight of Fayz. Looking at it as a business option. ;) I'm thinking of importing it in shipments. The answer is contained within. Its o...

Welcome. Hopefully you did not land too far from the gate as sometimes the bus ride to the gate can be longer than the flight itself.

If I am not mistaken there is a plaque outside the villa's doorframe (black thing with white numbers) - it may be the acct # but good enough. Write the number down and go to any Dewa office and ask them to print you the bill (or for the past x months). Remember: "you lost your bill and want to ...

All in all a great expereince except for the service, for some reason our waitress was really bitchy !!! There is no such thing as "waitresses" or "Waiters" in NYC restaurants they are all "actors" who just happen to be doing a "favor" for someone the night y...

Concord are you back ? you need to fill us in on your trip. I'm back. Worked like a donkey but managed a day and 1/2 for touring. My work was within a great view of the pyramids. So while at the office working 14 hr days (for 2 days) I saw the pyramids each time I lifted my head. I stayed at the Ma...

What is that round structure located close to the water and next to the Marina in AD? It has beautiful tile corridors. It seems to be some time of performance (theather) or some kind of hall for events, etc. I've asked a few people including Dubai locals and no one knows what it is. Its at the end n...

I must say DF counts as members a bunch of good and decent people who have in short time forged some frendships which will transcend life in Dubai. It also helps if you can consume lots of C2H5OH and sing Kareoke (the worse the better).

I'll know more once I meet some of these people

I don't believe the story for one second. Where is the proof she lost 8 relatives. Remember, the US media can't be trusted. It all opportunistic bullsh&t.

It wasn't a few years ago. Maybe some "do gooders are ok".

Kanelli,

As always you are absolutely correct. It is simply amazing how people do not understand the concept of freedom of expression.

One of my closest friend's in Dubai is a guy I met whilst standing in line for 4 hours waiting to get our driver's licenses.

No wonder I never met anybody. It took me 20 minutes to get my license

p.s. what's with the "whilst" I thought you were a cannuck

I been away for 56 minutes but what does your quote mean?

Rain dance actually works, scientifically. If you have low clouds the sound waves from the noise ("dance") can in fact precipitate rain. Thus you can dance till the cows come home (and then some) and you would never get rain in some places - Dubai for example.

Just thought about it. I think there are 7 continents

1. Africa
2. Antartica
3. Asia
4. Australia
5. Europe
6. North America (Panama and north)
7. South America (Colombia and South)

What say you?

If you are a light sleeper you'll be up in four hours.
