TravelI've had guns pointed at me in many different countries, sometimes even by our own side. I've also sat on my own on a beach on a desert island, which was nice because nobody was trying to shoot me. Tell us your tales of foreign travel.
Thanks to SnowytheRabbit for the suggestion

ExpatsIt's funny how many alcoholics there are in countries where alcohol is banned.

In the UAE it isn't bannedbut it is regulated. You can only drink in hotels and certain clubs and at home. And you can get into serious shit for selling or giving alcohol to a Muslim.
I think the authorities over here don't really give a shit what the westerners do, as long as it doesn't affect the locals. I know some full-blown alcoholics over here, the sort that get the DTs and all, but somehow they manage to keep off of the official radar.
That said, if you have a car accident while drunk, you're toast.
