    The Middle East is no longer a land of camel trains and nomadic tribes, the Arabs must be the most modern people on the planet. Bahrain being a long time oil rich country, why am I not surprised they have such a drag strip?

    But they all have an APU installed.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
