Something else I don't undertstand about the Middle East

Why, when it's so hot, do they all wear black and towels on their head?

 

[Tommy Cook reporting]

I agree, the women would be so much more comfortable in skimpy bikinis - well apart from the bearded ones!

 

[Tommy Cook reporting]

And they could cool themselves down some more with a nice mojito or something.....

because black reflects heat?

And why do they fire semi-automatic assualt rifles in the air at public events? There is a real danger of having someone's eye out.

When I was at school I once got detention and a stern lecture simply for lobbing a PINE CONE one lunchbreak. An AK47 would have been completely out of the question.

I stand corrected....I thought that was why black people evolved in sunny climes and white blonde people evolved in cold areas...hence black people live in Africa and white blonde people live in Finland.

Do black people get surnburnt or darker in the sun?

Black people live in Africa because they like the sun, and white people live in Finland because they like SNOW.

Yes, yes they do

and what is it with those dodgy suits that they wear? There used to be a shop called Passport in Gardner Street that sold all these very dodgy outfits.

Take a look at Saddam Hussein's son:

Sartorial disaster. He should have borrowed one of his dad's suits. A simple, classic, 2 piece, single breasted, 2 or 3 buttons and a crisp white shirt underneath. I notice that Saddam never wore a tie - probably health and safety reasons. After all get your tie caught in the wrong place and you could choke to death….oh, yeah

So...what about Greenland?

The women wear black which absorbs heat. The men wear white which reflects heat. What does that tell you about who makes the rules in that miserable part of the world.

I lived in the Gulf for a year five years ago and I now work for a Gulf based company so I know a bit about it. Enough to despise most of them and their religion and morality.
