The clerk's attempts to advise them were 99% stopped at the language barrier. Damn if they didn't settle on a bottle of Everclear. Guessing, I'd say they could read numbers, and 190 looked like the best number. I expected to read about the Muslim family found dead of alcohol poisoning in the paper, but I didn't....

The liquor store in Temecula is owned by Iraqis if I am not mistaken...I remember asking them where they were from once. The stuff I am talking about has a picture of corn on the bottle with words highly flammable on it. It is at the Air Force exchange.

there are some places there in the Middle East where you can drink. I have gotten really drunk in Dubai UAE, and one can party hard in Bahrain, usually to a Russian emigre band. I think many Saudis travel over the bridge to Bahrain so enjoy so good times.
