To be honest, if we were to role-play here and involved some African tribesman doing the same thing in a VW bus in the middle of Johanesburg, I would have probably said Stupid Africans. Anything else would have probably gone over a bit worse.

This is just simply two different outlooks on life meshing in an online forum. Nothing wrong with that. I would actually welcome a friendship with someone of Arabian origin, but my daily activities do not privy me to that.

In fact, I did have a drafting class in high school with an Iranian. His name was Nima, and we always called him Nemo for laughs! Good times! :chuckles:
