Lymie - thanks for the inside info. How is the social life? Are social regulations prohibiting? What do you do there yourself? You're from the UK originally? |

No Probs silk. Social life here is fine - Lots of night clubs and bars. Just dont drink and drive or you will go to jail. There are lots of hot women - most of them work for the big airline here Emirates they have around 6000 cabin crew and they do discrininate angainst fat chicks.... I run and am a partner in a motor bike shop. I used to sell Cisco network solutions to oil companies but got sick of it and started my own company. Yes Im from the UK... Any other questions just let me know and I'll try to answer. Laters Lymie |

Depends on the room that you go for. I think the cheepest one is about 1000 USD a night. I cant remember though. I took my mrs there for a night about a year ago. You get your own butler and shit. You call him on the phone and aks him to draw you a bath and sure enough jeves shows up and runs the bath for you. Its one hell of a hotel. I dont know the web site for this place but the Al-Mahar resort is even better in my opinion. I'll try to find a URL for yall... Laters Lymie |

I working for Emirates right now, well they are one of my customers. They always ask me to come there and visit. My coworkers have gone, they said the night clubs are great, and the women there in the clubs are hot and sort of aggressive. |

Not wrong Pilot - If you want to get laid in Dubai just go to any club with ladies night on. They get free drinks all night and they are almst all single... Here in the URL of the Al Maha resort check this place out - its absolutly amazing - when ther with the mrs 2 years ago its way better than the Burj.. http://www.al-maha.com/homepage.html Laters Lymie |

Arab women are hard work. If you play your cards right you might get a lebanese or Jordanian. The rest of them are almost impossible to get. Best bet is go for the South Africans, the English or best of all the Australians. If you have BMW keys and a Hugo Boss suit you may pull a lebonese chick. They chase the cash big time.

No they are quite full most of the time. The rich locals use the place as a shag pad. Most of them are married to ugly ass local women so they take their ho's to the burj for a bit of slap and tickle. Lymie |

""I thought the United States was the only modernized country in the world..." " "That is so sad I cannot even come up with a cutting remark. Damn. " Clearly he is joking. It is sad that someone believes in stereotypes so much that they would believe it to be real. BTW everyone knows that Britan and Japan are the only other two industrialized countries in the world. Dubai will make the 4th. I tried to find dubai on the world map but I couldn't find it. Once I went east from America I kept on ending back on the other side of the map at California. Dubai must be a really small country. |

Dubai is fucking great. Service is top notch and they have the best mid-eastern block escorts in the world. I remember reading about the project where they are making the islands in the shape of palm trees and shit to sell only to the elite. Oil money is not the only money that can get you shit like that, weapons, drugs, and energy company magnates make and have the contacts for shit like that!!!! Fuck the rest of us can dream! |
