Things I Learned...

…About Dubai 

It’s not Abu Dhabi.

There are seven Emirates that united into one country.

Running a red light will get you a $1,500 fine, you’ll lose your license for two months, and have your car impounded.

Standard dowry is $25,000 and a house.

If a man marries a non-citizen woman, she gains citizenship (job, free health care, free education). If a woman marries a non-citizen man, she loses all her rights.

It “would be a very big problem” for me to see the pool at the Atlantis because I’m not a guest.

…About South Africa

Electric switches need to be turned on to work.

I look enough like Jeremy Forsythe for the World Cup ticket people to look at his passport, look at me, and hand me 12 tickets.

N4 will get you to Rustenburg. From there, “follow the flags to Royal Bafokeng Stadium.”

My computer does not recognize my modem.
