Yeah, I forgot about that. And he's religious, too. Maybe we need to
do some rethinking...

Scary religious, and judging from that link above, we can now call him
a draftdodger. Ha!

I don't have a problem with that. My great-grandfather moved his family
to the US so his sons wouldn't be inducted into the Prussian army. If
necessary, I would have been happy to move to Canada for the same
reason. The only person in my family to have served in the army was my
Uncle Bob, who brought back a cowrie-shell bracelet and a cigarette
lighter made out of a brass cartridge from somewhere in the south
Pacific. I guess I'd be willing to die for my country if I thought I
really had to, but I don't take orders well.

Still think 'Braveheart' is one of the best epic movies ever made.
Right up there with 'Last of the Mohicans'.

But then, I think Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' is an epic dance...
uh... epic.

If you say so.

You are just right, baby.

Thanks.

May I spank you?

No.

Moren min er fra Norge.

Det borger for kvalitet, men neppe sære sexvaner. BTW, does she like to be
spanked? It runs in the family, you know. You better ask your father, if you
dare........

Middle East and Central Asia are a bit tricky sometimes. Turkey joining
the
EU compounds it, but the most confusing thing, Israel competing in
Eurovision!

So many Israelis have European backgrounds, you see, so it is a culture
thing. But, Israel is still geographically in Asia. Turkey (Turkia) wishes
to belong to Europe, even though only a small part of the country actually
is in Europe. But, they can choose, and they have chosen Europe over Asia.
The Turkish capital of Ankara is in Asia Minor. The famous Turkish port city
of Istanbul (Konstantinopel) is in fact situated on both sides of the
Bosporus, and is therefore both in Europe and Asia. Quite unique!!

It's all Eurasia.

Correct.

AFAIK, the only Arab country with skiing is Morocco. Did you know that
Oukaimeden ski resort in Morocco has more lift served vertical
than Alta?
You can also ski in Iran, but the Iranians are not Arabs.

What about Iran and Lebanon?
Yes, but the Iranians are not Arabs.

Funny thing, all the Arabs I have ever met refer to the Persian Gulf as
the "Arabian Gulf". But of course, to Iranians, it's the "Persian Gulf".


We here call it both: "The Gulf of Arabia", or mostly just "The Persian
Gulf". Both names are of course correct.

Yeah, thats us. And herring is indeed good for your health. We eat a lot of
herring, just like the Swedes also do.

Yah. Persians aren't Arabs. There's reputed to be some fine skiing in
Persia (Iran), but I hear that it's nearly as hard to get an apres ski
beer there as it is in Utah.

Someone metioned that there's skiing in Lebanon - I didn't know that .
