...because you can rack up $11,475 (yes you read it right) of speeding fines in 1 hour, and then pay to avoid having your vehicle confiscated because you "have special circumstances"

Oops hang on sorry, that only applies if you wear a sheet.

. . . their Foreign Policy!

A summary in pictures.

Where do we dump these?

I have a masterful scheme!



(NO. . . you CAN'T have anything you want).

(ha ha ha ha ha. We'll see about that)

(it's only a Mirage)

(We don't negotiate with blackmailers or terrorists. Cyprus or Germany are probably better, more reliable places to be anyhow)

Nooooo!!!! Wrong ANSWER!!!!!!

(If that's how they feel about it).

We are not getting through to them!?!?!? How dare they!!!


And now:

New Visa Requirements for Canadians



We're not allowed to watch this on TV here:

. . . So the UAE-Canada thing is the next best entertainment playing. . .



But remember!



Happiness is V1 in DXB!

I love Dubai...

because I always get highly trained and motivated people within customer care if I have a problem with Etisalat or DEWA. They speak clear english and help me right away. Very customer minded and fair companies !
