The trouble with having our oil under their sand

An engineering masterpiece

During the construction phase… Dubai, United Arab Emirates

All finished.  Notice the palm trees outside…

Remember, this is in the middle of the desert… The very HOT desert where temperatures get up to 120 degrees…

Unbelievable!  But true…

The INSIDE view:

Why is gasoline $3.00 a gallon for regular unleaded?

So they can ski in the F#*@ING desert.
