(1) Still not sure how I feel about the girls' insistence that the ubiquitous bidets here are actually "children's sinks." Hey, if it's got 'em brushing their teeth...
(2) A sign at the checkout aisles of our local all-purpose store, Carrefour: "Priority for ladies." At least there are some perks to being a chick around here.

(5) A roadside billboard honoring Sheikh Mohammed, the boss guy of Dubai, and some other important cats. (BTW, his full title is: "His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoun, Prime Minister and Vice President of the United Arab Emirates, and the Ruler of Dubai." Picture *that* on a business card.) The Sheikh's face is everywhere and pops up in some unnerving places, like on the sides of skyscrapers. Big brother is watching...
