The religion of nanny state.

Back when they did the first ban there was a guy I worked with who was in a grocery store with his 5 year old son. The kid was wearing a Pokemon t shirt. One of the locals came and grabbed the kid's shirt and his dad knocked him cold. One of the other locals called the cops and when they came and got the story they told both of the locals to leave the kid alone or they would be taken to jail. I guess the moral of the story is that even in Saudi Arabia, white dudes can get away with pretty much anything.

I'm a little surprised they didn't behead the 5 year old.

Like I said, they don't hassle white guys here. If it had been an Indian or Filipino it's a different story.

i wonder if guys hog the praying mat and the regulars gather and bitch about them. 

"how many prayers you got left, bro?..."

If you don't do your prayer stacks in succession you are never going to improve.

5 prayers a day...probably overpraying..have to give your soul time to recover. try pulling back to maybe once a day for four days, then one off.

That is the sure fire recipe for skipping a prayer day, then another and pretty soon you are at the Lucille's ordering the St Louis Style ribs with a cold brew. Commitment or go home.

pork ribs at that. and you go from saying "god is great" to "one more plate".
