| #1 I guess TOURISM will tank in a major way in Yemen now that their colorful customs dont attract fat Germans and French couples and an occasional Italian in a juanty beret. Oh well, the average EUroweenie is used to a toilet down the hall and squatting. They learned as children. The kidnapping and being held for ransom by bad teeth and beards while they doggy buggered your girlfriend in another room are a small price to pay for visiting such an "interesting" Moslem culture. Maybe you can find a bargain in a hand made rug,(oh and at least try the Quat on Friday.) |
