Booze in Saudi Arabia

[Moose_Miller]

A Mexican, a White Man and an Indian are all in Saudi Arabia. They are all sharing a smuggled a crate of booze. All of a sudden, Saudi police rush in and arrested them.<br /><br />The mere possession of alcohol is a severe offense in Saudi Arabia.<br /><br />For the terrible crime of being caught consuming booze, they could all be sentenced to death!<br /><br />However, by a stroke of luck, it was a Saudi National Holiday on the day of their sentencing. So, the extremely kind Sheikh decided they could all be released after receiving just 20 lashes from a whip.<br /><br />They were preparing for their punishment when the Sheikh announced: "It's my first wife's birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping."<br /><br />The Mexican was in line first; he thought for a while and said: "Please! tie a pillow to my back."<br /><br />This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip tore through. The Mexican had to be carried away bleeding and crying in pain.<br /><br />The White Man was up next. After watching the Mexican in horror, he said smugly: "Please fix two pillows to my back." This was done, but even two pillows only lasted 15 lashes before the whip tore through again. The White Man was soon led away bleeding and crying also.<br /><br />The Indian was up last, but before he could say anything, The Sheikh turned to him and said: "I have never met an Indian in Saudi Arabia.<br /><br />Your culture is one of the finest in the world. For these reasons, you may have two wishes!"<br /><br />"Thank you, your Most Royal and Merciful Highness", the Indian replied. "In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20, but 100 lashes."<br /><br />"Not only are you an Honorable, Handsome and Powerful man, you are also very Brave. If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish?" the Sheikh asked.<br /><br />The Indian replied: "Tie the White Man to my back"<br /><br />

Now that would be some justice considering the history.

When I was over there, we brewed our own apple wine or traded old web gear to the polish merchant marines for their vodka. Christmas Eve I traded a bayonet for a 12 pack of budweiser they had (best beer I ever tasted!). It gets mighty dry over there, I think I would take the 20 lashes

I thought it was funny too. Now change the races around and see if the other non-white races see if it is as funny. Its odd how we accept things as funny when they are but others can't too.<br /><br />Sorry to turn negative here, bad day at work. I found out my boss, my coworkers, and myself were all Klansman. Of course this includes the last 2 people hired (we only have 7 total employees in my dept.) which are both black. Gotta love life gents

Just to clarify my last post. I didn't mean that we were actually Klansman. We were accused of it by an inmate and someone in administration actually took it serious.
